Thief (Boston Underworld, #5). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thief by A. Zavarelli

My rating: 5 of 5 stars.

I’m a good girl.

I live by a code that can’t be bent or broken. It is my duty to my family to stay innocent and pure. To marry an Italian man. The stars are already aligned.

But Nikolai Kozlov re-writes my destiny with five simple words.

You belong to me now.

He’s Russian mafiya. A thief. A skilled liar with no moral boundaries. He is everything I have been taught to hate. A man who stands for nothing. A man who takes what he wants without a second thought.

And what he wanted was me.

He thinks he controls my fate, but what he doesn’t know is, sometimes it’s the good girls you have to watch out for.

I’m a dangerous man.

I live by a code. The Vory code. It is my duty to my family to protect the brotherhood. To destroy anyone who threatens what we stand for, including her.

She’s a dancer. A beautiful little doll. My prisoner, and my new favorite puppet. This mafia princess thinks she has me under her spell, but in the end, she is simply collateral.

It’s a shame to destroy precious things.

But this is what bad men do.

Nikolai is very hot as the tortured artist/Russian mobster

This was another good book in this series. Like book 3, this one also centered on the Russian Vory. Nikolai is Alexei’s half brother and the one that the Father cared about. Though Nikolai was jealous of Alexei because he got out from under his Fathers thumb, while Alexei was Jealous of Nikolai for being the favorite son while he was tossed out as being defective after losing his hearing at a young age.

He suspects his father has something more to do with it and that an Italian mob boss is involved. The mobster owes the Vory a lot of money so Nikolai takes his daughter, Tanaka, as collateral. He plans to find out exactly what the man did to his mother and do the same to the mans precious daughter in return.
