Bratva Butcher: The Bratva Series, Book 4

Ten years of grief and one lethal assassin are all it takes to shatter Dimitri Volkov's carefully built walls—though she'll put a knife through them first.

Known throughout the criminal underworld as the Bratva Butcher, Dimitri has spent a decade honoring the memory of his late wife, keeping his heart sealed tighter than a vault. Love is a weakness he refuses to revisit. Then Autumn DeValos storms into his world, and the two don't exactly share a warm introduction—unless trading insults and making repeated attempts on each other's lives counts as cordial.

Their mutual hatred feels manageable until fate delivers the worst possible twist: a kidnapping that lands them both inside a brutal, gladiator-style tournament where survival depends on trust they haven't earned and cooperation they'd rather die than offer. Fighting back-to-back against horrors neither of them anticipated, the hostility between them begins to crack, revealing something far more dangerous than hatred simmering underneath.

Dimitri's vow of loyalty to a ghost collides head-on with a living, breathing woman who terrifies him in ways no enemy ever has. And Autumn—sharp-tongued, fiercely guarded, and infuriatingly drawn to the most arrogant man she's ever nearly killed—refuses to admit she feels anything at all.

Dark, pulse-pounding, and laced with unexpected humor, *Bratva Butcher* proves that the most lethal thing two assassins can do is fall for each other.
