Claiming a Bratva Heart: A Dark Mafia Bodyguard Romance - Dark Hearts of Stone, #4

NIKOLAI

It was supposed to be only a distraction. One anonymous night in Paris. One taste of her innocence. One angel claimed my heart.

Still, I walked away before she saw the monster lurking inside me.

Now she's my assignment. I must keep her safe. And she's also the daughter of the man I've sworn to destroy.

But every moment near Isabella DiLorenzo reminds me of what I can never have. I'm the Bratva heir. My own family is filled with secrets and sins I'm only beginning to uncover, the stuff that feeds my nightmares.

I thought I knew my enemy.

I was wrong.

The monsters I've been hunting elude me at every turn. And the innocent woman I'm falling for? She's the only light in an endless night soaked in blood.

ISABELLA

In Paris, I was anonymous. Bold. Free. I gave pieces of myself to a stranger who vanished before dawn.

Now the stranger has a name: Nikolai Petrov. Bratva heir. Lethal. Cold as ice.

And my new bodyguard.

I've spent my whole life being protected from the truth. Now the truth is hunting me.

Nikolai thinks I'm too innocent for his world. He's about to learn that DiLorenzo women don't break.

We burn.

As buried truths surface and enemies close in, Nikolai and Isabella must choose: protect their hearts or fight for a love that could destroy them both. Because in a world of blood and betrayal, love is the deadliest risk of all.
