The Vow He Makes
(2026)(The second book in the Burning Bliss: Dragorin Bratva series)
A novel by Kat Steele
I know what happens to heroines who keep secrets. Sooner or later, it all blows up in their faces.
Unfortunately, knowing that hasn't stopped me.
The clock is ticking on my brother's life, and the price of saving him is the man who sleeps beside me every night. Andrei notices the way I flinch when my phone buzzes. He notices the lies I tell him over morning coffee.
And Murphy, my seventeen-pound traitor, has taken to glaring at me from Andrei's lap like he knows exactly what I'm planning.
Then I learn I'm carrying more than secrets, and it’s not just my heart on the line anymore.
Someone is tearing Andrei's world apart, and it isn't business. It's personal. The Bratva past he buried twelve years ago has come back to collect, and the only question left is how far he'll go into the darkness to protect what's his.
For once, I know exactly how this story ends.
He'll burn the world to the ground to protect his family.
And this time, his family includes me.
The Vow He Makes is Book Two of the Burning Bliss duet, a full-length dark mafia romance with a guaranteed HEA.
A Bratva assassin with nothing left to lose, a bookstore owner hiding an impossible choice, and a vendetta over a decade in the making. For readers who love morally gray heroes, touch-her-and-die protectiveness, and surprise pregnancies with the highest possible stakes.
Warning: Murphy remains firmly Team Andrei and has declined to comment on the ethics of the situation.
