Broody. Hot. Intoxicating.
Nastya Semyonov first met Haze at a bar, but for Haze Hopkins, duty calls before either can act
on their desires. He’s gone without a glance back, leaving her thinking that maybe all the hot
looks were only one-sided.Fast forward to the next day, Nastya hitches a ride to her car that she left behind the night before,
only to run into the same man from last night.Neither one truly thinks before they act, and they spend a hot fifteen minutes in a fast-food
restaurant bathroom before parting ways again.It’s as she’s walking back to her car that she realizes how badly she’s screwed up.
Because her car is surrounded in police tape, and there’s one very angry man wearing a badge
standing in front of it with her name on an arrest warrant for killing a man.Mistakes were made. Repeatedly.
But Detective Haze Hopkins isn’t complaining.
He was ready to quit, anyway.
Crime pays better.
Vale continually wraps a couple around my heart! The second book in the Semyonov Bratva series is action packed with intense heat, warm interactions and suspense to keep you turning page after page. I was quickly hooked on Nastya and Haze and loved every minute of their story! The tension is high, the connection between this couple as well as other family is really heartwarming even as danger is lurking around the corner. I can’t wait for more to come in the series!
My favorite character was Haze. He’s goodhearted and out to do good in the world, but life just keeps knocking him down and making him see that everything isn’t black or white and he occasionally has to tolerate a little gray in his life. He’s a fun one to get to know.
I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone that loves a close knit family with a criminal backdrop but hearts of gold.
