Mafia, hacker, kidnapping, Russian mafia princess, age gap, forced proximity, beauty and the beast retelling, opposites attract, possessive 

I really liked it, she is a mafia princess hacker but her dad won’t let her help the family business so she hacks companies for fun and had been hacking his company for months so he kidnapped her not knowing her mafia ties and thinking she’s a guy. He sees her decides he wants to keep her and gives a condition she can either work for him and fix what she did (he had his tech people mess up the network) or he kills her family. 

It was so sweet the effort he put in to make her comfortable with getting maids and stuff and the post it notes with the drawing were 🥹

“My beauty. In the arms of a beast. “I think that fairy tales exist, after all, vespetta. And I believe, I owe you a present.” “What are you talking about,” she pants. “What present?” I smile. “A library.”

Um, okay. WOW! 

I TOTALLY LOVED IT.. Neva's books are always just a tad and wonderfully delivered dark. Just like I love to read. For me it was a great book! I can't wait for the rest of the series.

Beautiful Beast: An age gap forced proximity mafia romance (Mafia Legacy - Perfectly Imperfect Book 1)

Neva Altaj

Tropes:
🖤 Mafia Romance
🔪 Touch her and 💀
🖤 He falls first
🔪 Kidnapping
🖤 Age Gap
🔪 Forced Proximity

Why did I wait so long to read this? Rafael and Vasilisa’s story is perfection that comes full circle. This book gripped me I think I only put it down a handful of times to take care of my daughter’s needs and to play with her. Rafael is a broody Sicilian who has two faces angry and murderous, until he falls in love with Vasilisa, he acquires a smile that makes his staff think he’s off his rocker.  I loved how Rafael pokes at Vasilisa’s Pakhan father to rile him up.
