MISTLETOE
Revenge. It’s the only thing that has been driving me for so long and now it’s so close. The death of my twin hangs heavy on my heart. She didn’t deserve the pain she was put through. The desperation she must have felt echoes through my soul along with my guilt. The man who killed her was not tortured enough.
Since the man responsible is already gone, the only one who can temper my need for blood is Nikolai Orlov. I’ve been watching and waiting. When he retreats to his cabin, I know it’s time to strike. He will answer all my questions and I will get vengeance for my sister’s demise.
Getting stranded with him wasn’t part of the plan. Nor was finding out that his pain mirrors my own. He’s haunted, but is it enough? Will anything ever be? Can my soul rest in his arms and find peace? What would my sister think of me if she knew Nikolai has stolen my heart?
NIKOLAI ORLOV
I am being haunted. There are so many sins in my past, so many deaths on my shoulders, but the death that taints my soul the most wasn’t by my hands. I was too late to stop the abuse, but I tried to make it right. I can still see her lifeless eyes in my nightmares because her ghost will not let me rest. I don’t deserve the luxury of vanquished guilt.
The need to get away from the city and search for some solace drives me to my cabin. I was hopeful the ghost of my failure, wouldn’t follow me, but she did. At least, I thought she did, but the person who has been haunting me isn’t a ghost at all.
I see the pain in Mistie’s eyes for her twin. I can see the hatred she has for me and her need for retribution. I will pay in flesh and blood willingly because once I know she is real and not a figment of my own failure, I also know that she’s mine. We’re two hearts in pain and stranded in the snow. Can we find a way forward together?

VLAD
I’ve been watching and waiting for a chance to get Laurel in my arms. I shouldn’t want her since she’s the Orlov princess, but I don’t care that our families have spent generations killing each other. All I want is her. She will be the Petrov family’s queen.
I know her power, her strength, and her softness; I crave all of her. I’ll lure her to me and then I’ll never let her go. The darkness inside of me demands her submission and I don’t care if the thorns she uses to protect herself draw blood. I will gladly bleed for her.
I’ll free her of the gilded cage the Orlovs have built around her. She’s mine and I’m never letting her go. Once she’s in my arms, nothing can take her from me, not even her brothers. They can come for her, but they’ll never win.
LAUREL
With my brother out of town, burying himself in his own misery and guilt over something he couldn’t control, the throne of the Orlov family is vacant. It should mean freedom for me, but unfortunately the rest of my brothers think I should be caged as well. The only solace I have is my art.
When I get an offer to talk to someone in Atlantic City about a gallery show, it’s an opportunity I can’t pass up. Coming face-to-face with my family’s enemy is the last thing I expect. The Petrov name has always been sneered in my family and I know the kind of darkness that lives in Vlad.
Vlad says he wants to set me free, but I know he only wants to trap me for himself. I’ve always hated not having my freedom but being captured by Vlad is a craving I can’t deny. If he can handle my thorns, he can have me. My family will get over it or I’ll watch it all burn.

Power comes at a cost and these men have sacrificed their souls. They know violence, death, and how to walk in the gray, but that doesn’t mean they are without weakness. The women they love are their light and they would scorch the Earth to protect them. This December meet the men who rule their empires of crime and the women who stand by them while darkness reigns.
He dirties her up and she cleanses his soul.
VIKTOR ORLOV
I have no problem taking advantage of the power, prestige, and wealth my last name and family give me. Why shouldn’t I? My brothers have the empire covered and my role in the family has never been clear beyond being the youngest. Why not have fun?
When I’m blindsided by an arranged marriage, one completely out of my control, the only thing I can do is accept it. I enjoy my freedom too much and I won’t make this easy on whoever my wife is. I don’t see why I need to give up the fun I’ve been having; the marriage isn’t real. It might be in the name of some tentative peace between families, but I don’t trust her or her family.
The longer I’m forced to be around Calla, the more I soften toward her. Why do I want to protect her from her brother and my past? It doesn’t make any sense and I don’t deserve to touch her with my soiled hands. When secrets are revealed and my resistance crumbles, I find that I want to make this marriage between us real. Can I earn her trust and prove to my wife that I’m ready for forever while keeping her safe and finding my place in my family’s legacy?
CALLA SOKOLOV
People looking in from the outside would think I have it all, but they have no idea what happens behind closed doors. My life is bleak in ways few would ever understand. My brother, Pavel, has found the power he’s sought for so long with the death of our parents. How is it possible that I’m grieving alone?
For so long, the only thing I’ve had control over is my body. When Pavel comes to me and tells me I’m getting married to strengthen the ties between the Sokolov and Orlov Bratva families, will my body continue to be my own? Marrying Viktor isn’t something I want, but I can’t fight it. Maybe I can use this to gain my freedom.
It’s clear Viktor doesn’t want or trust me, but I feel something for him, even if I shouldn’t. Is this just another trial to endure? Will he betray our marriage to rebel against what has been forced upon us? What happens to the resentment between us when secrets come to light? Can love bloom in our marriage?
