5 stars I received an ARC of this book from the author, the fourth in the Popov Bratva series. I’ve been enjoying this series so far, and I enjoyed this book too. It focuses on Dom, Lev’s twin brother, and his budding relationship with Leah, a famous country singer whom he does not know. I must confess, I loved the circumstances under which Dom and Leah meet—when he tries to steal her car. Not many would be stupid enough to confront a carjacker, but then, not many are like Leah. Dom is surprised, to say the least. Obviously, he doesn’t kill her, as most carjackers would probably do, so don’t try this at home. Dom and Leah are both similar in their unwillingness to allow anyone to get too close to them. Dom is still mourning the loss of his mother a year ago (in Lev and Siena’s story) and Leah lost her mother at 14, and ended up in a series of lousy foster homes. The final one was the worst. Leah has some BIG secrets in her past, although once we know the main ones, we have a pretty good idea about the one she really doesn’t want to tell anyone. And now, some bad people are after Leah, and it’s because they recognized her when following Dom. Even if he doesn’t want a relationship with her (spoiler: he does), he feels responsible and determined to protect her. Lev and their cousin, Sacha, immediately offer to help. To no one’s surprise, Dom and Leah overcome their fear of commitment and learn to trust one another. It’s a simple story, but it’s well told with compelling characters. Plus, it’s part of a series and each one leads you to want to read the next.
