Wed to the Bratva Captain

Vera Antonova inherited a bakery, a mortgage, and a debt she never agreed to. The Krupin bratva gives her forty-eight hours to pay it. Kirill Krupin gives her a third option. Marry him and the debt disappears, because a wife's assets are untouchable. Vera signs. She moves into a brownstone full of locked doors and a man who comes home with his knuckles split. She is not a fool. When she finds the printing plate her father died hiding, she understands she was never a wife. She was a retrieval. The plate can bring the Krupin family down. The uncle wants her buried with it. Kirill was ordered to keep her close and found himself wanting her closer. When the order finally comes, he does not follow it — and there is nowhere for either of them to hide but the bakery.
