The mafia life is a dangerous one revolving around honor, duty, and greed-a troublesome thing like love isn't meant to play a part, but no one follows the rules.Surrounded by men waiting for the Russian mob boss to show weakness, Anton Avdonin should have known showering affection so openly on his new bride wasn't a good idea. Of course, that didn't stop him. When Anton's wife begins attracting unwanted attention from an unknown source, he's determined to find out just who is playing the risky game and put a stop to it by whatever means necessary.From a Cosa Nostra princess to a Bratva queen, Viviana "Vine" Avdonin was made for the life. Pregnant, safe, and loved, she's more than happy to move on from the history that haunts her to start out fresh. Then again, someone else has other plans. Old rivals from the past and bad blood from the present have mixed in the worst way, threatening to take away the things Viviana loves the very most. No matter what, she can't let that happen. Both Viviana and Anton know there's only one way this can all end and it's up to them to do it. But, who is behind the veiled threats and personal attacks, and how far are they willing to go to get what they want? When the truth finally surfaces, the consequences will be devastating and no one could have seen it coming.
