Freak
Popov Bratva Series Book 1
by Leslie Georgeson
Genre: Contemporary Mafia Romantic Suspense
They say blood is thicker than water, but that's a lie.
----
Trust no one. Especially family. Some are toxic.
Sad, but true.
My family committed the ultimate betrayal. So, I fled and never looked back.
I started my career behind a mask of darkness. In seclusion.
No one knows who I am.
Or my biggest secret.
When sexy and tempting Mia Bennett shows up at my gate, all my instincts start screaming. Is she working for my family?
Keep your enemies closer is the old adage.
I invite her into my lair to expose her secrets.
Yet, it is I who wants to share mine.
With little effort, she breaks down my walls. And makes me feel alive again. She gives me the courage to just be me. My heart’s new melody.
But something dark and twisted lurks close to home.
With Mia’s life now at stake, I have to uncover the truth.
Fast.
When an offer of support comes from an unlikely place, who do I believe?
Trusting the wrong one could be deadly.
And time is running out for us both.

***This book contains a striking and unique hero, a sassy heroine, horrid family members, a kind teacher, and a hint of the mafia. Due to strong language, adult situations, and a few steamy scenes, it is recommended for readers age 18 and up.***
AUTHOR’S NOTE: I originally wrote this book as a complete standalone and never planned for it to be a part of a series. However, after numerous requests from readers to tell the rest of the Popov boys’ stories, I decided to make it a part of a series. That is why it is slightly different than the rest of the books in this series. While this is not a mafia romance, it does introduce the Popov family, who are mafia, and their stories are told in the subsequent books in this series. All books in this series are interconnected standalones. However, to avoid spoilers, it is recommended that they be read in order.
Snitch
Popov Bratva Series Book 2
She thinks I am just her rich neighbor. She has no idea I am heir to the Russian Bratva.
------
Pakhan. Head of the Bratva. That is my destiny. Nothing can stand in my way. I won’t allow it.
Until she shakes things up. Willow Anthony. I didn’t even know she existed until her voice floated through the trees, singing a melody that captivated me. I had to meet her.
Willow’s not what I expected. She’s shy. Sweet. Innocent. A challenge. I crave her as much as I long to be the king of the entire Russian Bratva. I want her to sing for me, and me alone. I want to make music with her in a very carnal way.
She has no place in my world. But now it’s too late.
I have to choose: Willow or the Brotherhood.
To save her, I must become what I swore never to be.
How can I protect her and not betray my family?
I can’t.
The music will stop.
And I will lose it all.
***This novel contains a determined Mafia man, the shy, feisty musician who lives next door, family bonds, betrayal, a cute dog, and an evil villain. It has strong language, adult situations, and plenty of steam. Recommended for readers ages 18 and up.***
