Aleksei: Enemies to Lovers Russian Mafia Romance

She tried to put Aleksei Marinov behind bars. Now she wears his ring instead.

When a bold attempt to bring down the Bratva's most feared enforcer collapses spectacularly, the woman who orchestrated it finds herself facing something far worse than failure—she finds herself facing him. Cold-eyed, ruthless, and utterly in control, Aleksei doesn't believe in mercy. He believes in ownership.

Forced into a marriage designed to shield her family from the consequences of her actions, she becomes the property of the one man in Moscow she has every reason to despise. Aleksei is everything the rumors promise: brutal, calculating, and terrifyingly possessive. He wants to break her. She refuses to bend.

But the contemporary dark romance landscape rarely plays by its own rules, and neither does Aleksei. Behind the violence and the iron control, he treats her with an intensity that feels dangerously close to reverence—and she cannot decide which version of him frightens her more. The monster she expected, or the man who looks at her like she's the only thing in his world worth protecting.

As Bratva enemies close in and the stakes climb higher, the line between hatred and hunger grows impossibly thin. She came into his world fighting. Now she's fighting something far more dangerous than him.

Herself.

Gritty, consuming, and wickedly addictive, *Aleksei* is the dark romance obsession you won't be able to put down.
