He’s a widower with a bloodstained past. She’s the reluctant bride of a Bratva king.
Mikhail Zhukov has ice in his veins and war in his soul. The eldest son of a powerful Russian mafia boss, he buried his heart with his wife—and vowed never to love again. But when duty demands he marry Kira Malakhov, the pampered daughter of a corrupt oligarch, he expects a nuisance. What he gets is a firestorm.
Kira wants nothing to do with the world her father sold her into—or the man shes being forced to marry. Cold, ruthless, and haunted, Mikhail is everything she despises…until she begins to see the man behind the legend. A protector. A warrior. A man who watches her like she’s the only thing keeping him breathing.
Mikhail never wanted a new wife. But once he sees Kira, he knows one thing: he will have her. Protect her. Obsess over her. Even if he has to burn down the empire to do it.
A reluctant marriage. A deadly legacy. An obsession that could consume them both.
