Sometimes you believe the only way you can protect the ones you love is to let them go. Four years ago, the only woman I've ever loved left me after a ton of heated words and a gut-wrenching promise to never return. I should have chased her-when Ana runs, I'm meant to catch her. It's how we operate-but a war was erupting, and I no longer believed I was the right man to protect her. That changes when she returns to Russia to repay her father's massive debt. More than money is on the line, and I refuse to make the same mistake twice. Anastasia is mine, and I'll take down any fool with an opposing opinion. is an age-gap mafia romance. Although it is part of the Bobrov Bratva series, it can be read as a standalone. It does have some triggers, though not quite as many Wicked Intentions.
