This is the second book in Jane Henry's Bratva books. And it was really good.

This is Demyan and Larissa/Calina's story. I have to put her name like that, for reasons. I like both characters. I think Demyan lied to himself at least more than once. I'm not entirely sure that he meant to. I think it was more like he was trying to convince himself that what he wanted to be true was true. I think that Larissa/Calina is a very strong, loyal character. She does what she feels is the best thing to do, even if it's not the way that most people would do. She has her own code, and she sticks to it.

There's a lot that goes on in this book, and I loved every second of it. Well, except for that one moment that made me really mad, but you have to have that one moment, for all kinds of reasons, including maintaining the appropriate tension in the book. And even that moment, I loved, if that makes any sense. ( )

This one was just so good, this is the second book ive read by this author and I have enjoyed both so very much.
This one features at its centre Demyan the head of the Bratva and Larissa.
Larissa and her sister Calina are twins and after a supposed accident kills there hacker father Calini suffering from brain damage is institutionalised, her sister lies low while providing for her the only way she knows how with her less than legal computer skills.
But after her sister not realising the consequences of her actions steals money from the Bratva with a laptop she snuck into her Larissa knows the only way to save her sister is to switch places.
So Demyan is ice cold from the onset.
He is set in his ways and likes order in his life.
He is immaculate and very particular not only in his work but also in his playtime.
He is at heart a sadist and gets off to a degree on his partner's pain.
Training his new kitten in how to please him to pay off her debt is going to be his pleasure.
Larissa is not stupid she is aware that the way to get through this is to behave she is also surprised to actually like the way that Demyan makes her feel.
It's not in my opinion really that dark of a read, maybe a 3 on a scale of 10
This was told from dual pov which is always my favourite.
I do so adore stories where the anti-hero stays true to himself and the heroine accepts him for that so this one definitely didn't disappoint in that regards as Demyan has no intention of escaping his brothers in the Bratva, being originally an orphan they are his chosen family and his bride will now be apart of that extended family.
I also really enjoyed the ending here.
On a final note, this can easily be read as a standalone.
This was a very easy read that I have no issues recommending at all.
I voluntary reviewed a copy of The Bratva's Bride (Wicked Doms #2).
