Dark Contemporary Mafia Romance (Open Door, Explicit) — possessive, consensual power play · The Tarasov Bratva

Paid Passage

One night with a stranger off the late ferry. Seven weeks later, his enemies know she's carrying his child before he does.

Booking clerk Daryna Kovalchuk has told no one. Then a rival crew tries to drag her out of her own ticket hall, sure she belongs to the man she slept with once in September. She gets free because she knows every door on the quay better than they do, and gets his name out of the man she leaves on the floor.

Gleb Zorin is the Tarasov lieutenant who owns the passenger quay. So she climbs the stairs to his flat and tells him herself, before his enemies can turn the news into a ransom.

He keeps her. He threatens her watcher to his face. He calls her mine like it's a fact. But when the family offers a tidy way out, a berth on a boat and his name kept off her child, Daryna learns that being guarded is not the same as being chosen.

And Gleb has never once asked her for anything.

Dark, possessive, explicit, with a guaranteed HEA. A standalone in the Tarasov Bratva.

Perfect for fans of Neva Altaj and Sophie Lark.
