Chernov Bratva · Book one
I walked into the Bratva boss’s club with one offer. Marry me. One year. Separate bedrooms. No touching unless I ask.
My little brother owes the Chernov family nine hundred thousand dollars. My father’s boatyard on the Miami River is all we have, and the men who came for Danny gave him until Monday.
Lev Chernov needs a wife who belongs to nobody, or the old men at his late father’s table won’t follow him. I need a debt to disappear. So I wrote my terms on an invoice pad and slid it across his desk.
He laughed, which I’m told he never does. Then he agreed to every rule, and added one of his own: nobody touches me. Ever.
He hasn’t broken a single one.
That’s the problem.
The Devil Said Yes is a steamy, slow-burn Bratva romance about a woman who can rebuild a diesel blindfolded and the most dangerous man in Miami, who waits to be asked. For readers 18 and over.
