A Fabulous Storyline That You Won’t Want To Miss
Alexandra Volkin has been brought up knowing that she wanted to marry a Russian Mafia boss and be a woman at the side of a strong and powerful man. A Marriage is arranged but she has yet to meet her intended. On the day of her wedding she is all dressed up and ready to be married when she arrives at the church and a powerful looking sombre man walks towards her saying that he will be marrying her instead of his father who has been murdered overnight! Viktor Sokolov is very attracted to his beautiful new bride but should he bed her or kill her as her father probably killed his father. He has such mixed emotions about her and is furious when she enters a room in which he is holding an emergency meeting with his men and other Russian Mafia crew, not whom all support him and are looking for a weakness in his new rule, and he yells and physically pushes her out of the room. Shocked but by no means cowed she wanders the mansion and prepares herself for his arrival in their bedroom. he still is uncertain what his reaction will be when he enters their room but he suddenly loses all thoughts of murder once he takes her into his arms. Now don’t get me wrong, this is not some magical fairytale where he falls into her arms and all is well with the world. Oh No – far from it! But what a wonderful journey Leslie North takes us, her readers, in this first book in the Sokolov Brothers who are passionate men with a great sense of Family and justice – or, at least, their idea of justice! With Viktor wanting to make his mark on his people, protect his Family and mete out all forms of vengeance, can he also afford his growing attraction to Alex to sway his mind and not put her father to death? Will she end up dead too? Or will Love win over? This is a terrific storyline with great characters and so many twists in this suspenseful story at so many layers that all add up to a fantastic start to a series. I hope we get to see Maya again and that she can be reunited with her best friend. I received a reader’s copy of this book and voluntarily leave my honest opinion of it here. Most Definitely Recommended – I’m looking forward to her next book.
