Killer (Book #5 in Princes of Vengeance series)

Sophie 35 stories

Summary

Nikolai Ivanov was born a killer-plain and simple. At just eight years old, his father turned his rage into a weapon, forcing Nikolai to eliminate every problem that stood in the man's way. By thirteen, it was his older brother, Alexei, who put an end to their father's reign of terror. Together, the Ivanov brothers built something new: The Princes of Vengeance-a brotherhood sworn to protect women trapped in the same kind of hell their mother once endured. By any means necessary. For Nikolai, that often means blood on his hands. Daisy Dawson, on the other hand, is the girl who lights up every room she walks into. Too chatty, too cheerful, too trusting-she's sunshine wrapped in a smile. But one horrible night shatters her world, and it's Nikolai who steps in to save her. Now the Russian Mafia wants her silenced, and Alexei has only one solution: Nikolai stays by her side. They clash from the start-her warmth against his icy sarcasm, her relentless optimism against his haunted silence. But when Daisy wakes in the night to Nikolai's screams and sees the darkness he can't escape... she begins to wonder if maybe light and shadow aren't meant to fight each other. Maybe they're meant to fall.
