lia and adrian volkov (part three)


(rinaverse - book 25)


daddy adrian is just fire. also, protect little jeremy at all costs!!!


“I’m sorry for making you feel bad when I should’ve done the opposite. I lost the ability to feel love when I was a boy, but you’ve slowly but surely yanked those feelings out of me. You didn’t only yank them out, you also held tight to a part of me I thought was long gone. For you, I want to go back in time and keep that part alive for the moment I met you. In the past, I thought people were destined to leave, so being attached to anyone was useless. And I thought that at some point, you would leave, too. I fought the pull to you. I fought the lure of your rose scent and your breakable softness. But I couldn’t fucking last. Not when I craved your presence the moment you were out of sight. Not when my thoughts of breaking your purity turned to a need to protect it. I told you how different my love is, how dark it can get, but I do love you, more than I’ve ever loved anyone in my life. I don’t only need you; I also genuinely cannot live without you and the light you bring to my darkness. I know you deserve better, but I’m unable to let you go, so I’ll try my best to be worthy of you, Lenochka.”


“I’ll try to be better. Though I’ll probably never be a hero.”
“Who says I want a hero? I’m perfectly happy with you, my villain.”

IM FREEE!!!!! FINALLY!

Adrian and Lia are literally insufferable but I couldn’t stop reading for the life of me, so I guess that counts for something.

Un buen final para una trilogía que tuvo sus altos y bajos.
Lia llegó a hacerme enojar en varios momentos pero al fin en este libro empezó a tener más fuerza y a no dejarse atropellar por los demás. Y Adrian... Qué hombre más complicado!!!!

Mind Blown

I cannot believe how these characters were woven so intricately that I felt like I was going to explode with all the emotions I experienced from this book.
I strongly recommend that if you're a big fan of the Mafia erotic romance world, that you grab a copy now.
