She was supposed to disappear. He was supposed to protect her. Neither planned on falling.
Katya Volkov is done hiding. Witness protection in Seattle means serving drinks to assholes and pretending to be someone called Kate Wilson. When the boredom becomes unbearable, she takes a job that puts her directly in the crosshairs of the criminal underworld she thought she'd escaped.
Nikolai Zakharov runs a covert operation dismantling trafficking rings across the Pacific Northwest. The last thing he needs is a reckless bartender with a death wish—especially when that bartender turns out to be the sister of his most dangerous former ally.
But when Katya's "dead" uncle resurfaces as a trafficking kingpin and kidnaps her brother's girlfriend, the line between ally and enemy blurs. Now Katya must choose between the safe life she's built and the violence that's always been in her blood.
Nikolai knows getting involved with Katya is a mistake. She's reckless, damaged, and determined to get herself killed. But when she trades herself for a hostage and walks straight into torture, he realizes something terrifying:
He'd burn the world down to get her back.
In a war between love and loyalty, survival isn't guaranteed. But vengeance always comes with a price.
SAVAGE PROTECTION is a dark contemporary mafia romance featuring explicit content, graphic violence, morally grey characters, and a possessive hero who falls hard for a woman just as dangerous as he is. This is Book 2 in the interconnected Savage series. Each book features a different couple and can be read as a standalone, but reading in order enhances the experience.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
