**ARC Review**

I’m obsessed with this series, and Paved in Hate is my favorite so far! The dynamic between Katya and Vitaly was so fun and sweet! She softened up his edges and he brought her to life. And good lord the SPICE

This series just keeps getting better and I have been waiting for Vitaly’s book . When he enters into an arrangement so the Lebedev and Melnikov Bratva can come together he has to marry Katya whos not going to take any bull from Vitaly . She comes into the marriage already having preconceived opinions about him and his brothers she expected them to be the same as her brothers. Loved the chemistry between Vitaly and Katya even though neither wanted it they really were the perfect match . As usual there’s sadness and lots of humour between the brothers and I can’t wait for the finale it’s going to be epic.

ARC read review! 

Another 5 star read from Sonja Grey!

Katya and Vitally’s story begins with us meeting Katya, a shy and broken shell of a person, who has had to watch as her older brothers/guardians Konstantine and Osip ran a human trafficking ring right in front of her. She is invisible to them unless they are putting her down or if they can use her for something and that’s exactly how her story begins. Konstantine informs Katya that she will be marrying one of the Melnikov brothers, in order to form an alliance. 

Katya thinks she is being sold to a horrible man like her brothers, but little does she know that Vitally would be the one to help her break down the walls she has formed around herself and helps her heal from her past trauma. 

Vitally and his brothers, formed the Melnikov bratva when Romans sister Alina was taken and sold into human trafficking 2 years ago. 
Unbeknownst to Konstantine, the Melnikov brothers have been infiltrating their organization in order to bring them down and find Alina.

Each book gets them one step closer to finding her and taking them down once and for all.


This book was so good, Sonja always does such a fantastic job of covering such dark and heavy subject matter while also providing comedic relief that makes you literally laugh out loud. 

Vitally uses humor to help everyone around him cope with the stress and so his one liners were just fantastic. I also love all the scenes with the brothers and their pregnant wives who absolutely own their husbands. 

I could go on and on about the things I loved but I will just end with this, read this series! You will
Not be disappointed!!

Oof I knew Vitaly was going to be spicy, fierce and unexpected but oh baby add on his possessiveness and it made for a fantastic book. Also when every book comes with a new Russian nickname for the FMC it makes my heart race in all the best ways. Forced to marry a woman who has only know trauma and violence, he takes his time convincing her that she is safe and loved and that his chosen family is also hers now.
