Book 3 of Queens & Monsters

A feared Bratva assassin named Malek Antonov tracks down the woman connected to his brother's killer, only to find Riley Keller, the headstrong younger sister of a rival mafia wife. What begins as a plan for leverage and revenge turns into a tense, forced-proximity entanglement between captor and captive that neither of them expects to survive emotionally intact. Set against the backdrop of warring Irish and Russian crime families, the story blends mafia intrigue, banter, and danger as the two circle closer together. It's the third installment in the interconnected Queens & Monsters series, following couples from the earlier books as their own stories reach a close.
