Born into Darkness

Devils Will Rise: Melnikov Legacy, Book 5

She's my light in the darkness.

Maxim

Kidnapped, tortured, and chained to a wall… It's not at all how I imagined meeting the love of my life.

Music has always been my passion, but as soon as I see Talia Medvedev, I know things have changed.

I become obsessed, and instead of the familiar black-and-white keys, it's her body I want to play—her moans, the beautiful music I want to hear.

She quickly becomes my reason for breathing, and I'll do anything to protect her, even if that means making the biggest sacrifice of my life.

Talia

Scared, filthy, and chained to a wall... it's not the meet-cute I've always envisioned for myself, but there's no denying how I feel about my grey-eyed fellow prisoner, the man with the gorgeous hands—long fingers built for playing the piano that I know could work my body just as beautifully.

He may be a dangerous Bratva boss, but he makes me feel safe, gives me his food and water, and holds my hand so I can sleep.

He becomes my protector, and when our captors force an impossible choice—my innocence or his hands—he chooses me.

It's a sacrifice I'm not sure I'll ever be able to repay…a sacrifice I hope we can both survive.

Melnikov and Medvedev Crossover! This is a very steamy, dark mafia romance with some humor mixed in. This is the fifth book in the Melnikov Legacy series. No cheating, no OW drama, and an HEA is always guaranteed! For mature listeners.

Could have been a great storyline

While I have listened to all of the other books in this and the original series this was not this authors best work. Way to long captive and I don’t think a virgin male would go right to knowing he wants a submissive. On a positive note narrators did a great job. It’s also always neat to see characters from other books intertwine.

My favorite Bratva

The Melnikov’s were my first Bratva romance trope, I look forward to every new book! The mix of humor, love and murder never disappoint!

Best Ever

This is the best audio series and can’t wait for more! Story line, humor, suspence, romance, all in all it’s the best ever!

Another great story and intro to another “family”

Another great story from Sonja Grey, no disappointments! Wen and Kai’s narration is another one for the books!! I want to “read” this series but the narration has me hooooooked. !! This gives an intro into another “family” (will definitely be listening to !!) Great character development and of course 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
