The Bratva’s Love Toy: Dark Mafia Romance. Forced Proximity. (Nikitin Bratva)

He caught her stealing. Now he’s keeping her—for every dirty reason but the right one.

Lilya Golubeva lifts wallets from arrogant rich men. It’s how she survives—until she picks the wrong pocket. Ivan Kholodov, a cold Bratva enforcer known for making people disappear. He makes an arrangement with her: one night in exchange for her freedom. But one night turns into a cat-and-mouse game neither of them can stop playing.

Ivan thought she was just bait. But Lilya’s fire pulls him into obsession. She’s defiant. Addictive. And far too clever to stay caged for long.

She swore no man would ever own her. But now, every touch burns. When the truth behind their meeting explodes, betrayal turns deadly—but so does their need for each other.

Explicit content warning. Street-smart heroine vs possessive Bratva anti-hero. Enemies to lovers, morally-grey hero, dubious consent, high emotional tension, and raw, brutal passion. It can be read as a standalone.
