Unbroken

<p>Vadka Dragunov-Bratva executioner cold-blooded tactician... and my sister's widower.</p><p></p><p>The man who built his empire in blood and protected it with silence. The man with a stare that holds me hostage-and a voice that cuts straight through me. I've avoided him avoided all of them as I've wallowed in my own grief following my sister's death.</p><p></p><p>But now there's no escape. I'm living in his world. I've been targeted. The Irish want war. And the only safe place left is under his watch... or under him.</p><p></p><p>He's a single father now-haunted vengeful and dangerous. A man who reads bedtime stories with the same hands that pull triggers. The man who would raze the world to keep his son safe.</p><p></p><p>He thinks I'm reckless chaotic unpredictable. I was only a child when we first met. He's always known me as little Ruthie.</p><p></p><p>But I'm not a child anymore and I see what he hides beneath all that control-the obsession simmering just below the surface. The way he watches me like he wants to destroy me... or devour me.</p><p></p><p>And now the same loss that tore us apart is now pulling us closer.</p><p></p><p>Too close.</p><p></p><p>This was never supposed to happen.
I wasn't supposed to end up in his bed.
I wasn't supposed to want him to claim me like he owns me.
And I sure as hell wasn't supposed to be carrying the one secret that could burn everything down.</p><p></p><p>The Bratva is splintering. The Irish want blood.
And I'm falling head over heels for the man I can't have.</p><p></p><p>But is this love... or just what's left of us after everything else has been destroyed?</p><p></p>
