About this ebook

NO ONE TAKES WHAT’S MINE.

The lovely attorney kept a secret from me. 

A baby she’s been carrying since Valentine’s night. 

The night we were thrown together by the roulette wheel. 

She never contacted me. Meant to keep me in the dark.

She’s about to find out what happens when you cross a bratva boss.

Punishment is in order. Sequestering until the birth.

And I’ll use that time to win her surrender.

Because I don’t just plan to keep the baby—

I plan to make his mother my bride.

And it would be much better for both of us if she were willing.


The Director is the explosive first book in the USA Today Bestselling Chicago Bratva series. It’s a stand-alone dark mafia enemies-to-lovers romance, complete with HEA and no cliff-hangers. It contains steamy bedroom scenes and a dangerous and possessive hero who falls hard for the woman he wants to claim for life.

I was interested in reading this book to start the series. However, there were only 2 things I found appealing about The Director. The book itself is a very short, easy read and the side characters of Ravil's bratva cell are quite funny. But that's where my positive reception of the book ends. Overall, I feel that it's far, far too rushed (even while considering the story being 200 pages). Additionally, I believe the story itself would flow more smoothly if the series was condensed and POVs reformatted. This is particularly a peeve of mine because I find that what was shoved off into the second book easily makes sense to have in the first. And I'm not entirely sure what was so fantastic about the erotica aspect because I feel that that, too, was rushed coupled with an elementary-level of writing skill. The content's idea was there, but the final product was bland. I've honestly read more fulfilling content elsewhere on the internet.

I was first aware of these characters after reading their story in Black Light: Roulette War. Here we are getting the rest of their story which I was excited to read. Ravil and Lucy are total opposites. They have blistering hot chemistry! Which makes for some intense scenes and head butting and bantering that will keep you glued to the pages as their road is not a smooth one. There is danger, lies, secrets, lust and more! There is never a dull moment. It was outstanding! I read it straight through. I love a fantadtic Bratva story and Ms. Rose delivers !
