The Bratva's Velvet Bride
(2026)(A book in the Curvy Queens of the Bratva series)
A novel by Alisson Bento
Gilbert Wallaker isn't just a Bratva heir. He’s the monster other monsters check their closets for.
Forced to walk down the aisle and step into his heavily fortified estate, Olivia expects nothing more than a loveless political arrangement and a cold, gilded cage. She is a curvy, civilian bridal seamstress; he is the towering, ruthless king of the Chicago underworld.
But she couldn't be more wrong. Gilbert didn't marry her to secure a treaty. He orchestrated a blood-soaked war just to claim her.
For two long years, the lethal Don has lurked in the shadows, watching her every move and feeding a terrifying, consuming obsession. Now that she wears his ring and carries his name, he will happily slaughter anyone who dares to look at her—including the corrupt family that sold her.
As rival factions close in and bullets shatter the glass of her new reality, Olivia faces an impossible choice: run from the obsessive beast who claimed her... or take the loaded gun he hands her and rule the syndicate by his side.
Perfect for readers who love a fiercely protective anti-hero and a curvy heroine who learns to wear a crown of shadows.
