What happens when you discover that the shadows don’t hide the monsters you should fear, but the ones who will save you? I come home to discover the ultimate act of betrayal by the one person who was meant to love and protect me. My father sold me to the Russian Bratva, in exchange for a debt he could not pay, his apology a text message as he fled the country. Enter Nikolai Petrov, tall, dark and handsome, the Bratva leader’s son, and my childhood crush. Also the man who has won me, who has paid the price for me in blood and expects a return in kind. But even he can’t keep me safe from his ruthless father, so once again my life is turned upside down as I am given to The Shadowmen, a notorious West London gang. Hunter Anderson, their gorgeous leader, a hard man with swirling green eyes and a fierce need to protect those in his care, no matter the cost. The Kent twins, Hunter’s seconds, Roman and Rowan, one full of light, the other shrouded in darkness. Both irresistible and desperate to have something that truly belongs to them. We have a past, they owe me a debt, but as with everything it seems a price must be paid. My freedom in exchange for my safety. My body in exchange for their protection. But are they strong enough to stand against the might of the Russian mafia? Or is it only a matter of time before Sergi Petrov—Nikolai’s father and the man my father sold me to—comes for me. Because he wants what he believes belongs to him… he wants me. Kissed by Shadows is book 1 of a dark romance trilogy where our leading lady won't have to choose, but be warned, the path to true love is not a smooth one so be prepared for heartache along the way and to wait for your HEA. Release date will be moved forward.
