I absolutely loved the premise of this book. Ember is a woman who loves romance books, especially dark romance books. So she writes about the books she reads, discussing her fantasies and desires. Talking about her desire for a mafia man to capture her and force her to bend to his will. We’ll be careful what you wish for. Rodion is in California to take care of business for his older brother. He is hunting down and eliminating trouble. He notices a table of women being harassed by an over eager man and he intervenes. Suddenly he’s curious about what these women are reading and he stumbles across Ember’s post and suddenly they are connected and interacting. At first she doesn’t believe he is really a part of the Bratva and believes he playing a role to get women. However, as attracted as she is to him she has a lot of previous baggage that she needs to deal with. Rodion was such a great character. He read all her posts and noted all her fantasies. He wanted to fulfill them all. He was drawn to her and wanted to please her. Now doing this was truly against what he should be doing. When he involves her in his life more than he should will she be willing to live in his Bratva world? Fast paced, steamy romance with a small stalker vibe.
