Bratva Guard

He's the man sworn to protect her. She's the sin he can't resist.

Katarina Belnikova never asked for this fate-her future bartered away to secure her family's power within the Bratva. Bound to marry a merciless mafia boss, every dream of freedom slips further from her grasp. Yet behind the walls of her gilded prison, her heart begins to rebel. Because the one man she cannot claim-the one sworn to protect her-is the only man she craves.

Mikhail Denisov lives by the code of the Volkov Bratva: loyalty, control, obedience. For years, he has carried out his orders without hesitation, a weapon sharpened for violence. But guarding Katarina tests him in ways he never imagined. Her fire, her defiance, her unyielding spirit ignite a hunger inside him he cannot extinguish. To want her is to risk everything. To touch her would be a betrayal. Yet resisting her becomes the hardest battle he has ever fought.

As forbidden passion sparks between them and enemies close in, Katarina and Mikhail are forced to choose between duty and desire. In the ruthless world of the Russian mafia, every secret has a cost-and surrendering to love could destroy them both.

Bratva Guard is a standalone novel in the Ruthless Men of the Russian Mafia series-an intoxicating blend of dark passion, forbidden romance, and a dangerously possessive Bratva protector who will stop at nothing to claim what's his.
