It smelled a lot like a religious cult to me. Not good for much except to serve the men and have babies. Cassie was a bit naive but this was a result of her horrible upbringing.women are to be subservient to men. Andrei, there as security, is immediately drawn to her and out bids the horrible men there.Īndrei was so sweet and good to Cassie. 18 year old Cassie is sold off in a slave auction as payment of a debt by her "godly" father. Sweet and fairly low angst hit man/mafia story. So while this wasn't a perfect read it's an enjoyable romance with nice characters.


I enjoyed this book, I didn't buy the reason Cassie finds herself in the situation she's in and I didn't like that it doesn't resolve itself like I wanted but honestly it didn't matter (to me anyway) I liked Andrei and I loved the way he is with Cassie and talking of Cassie I can't even imagine what it must have been like for her. Her life is laid out before her, a husband will be chosen for her and she'll then serve and please him but then on her eighteenth birthday her whole world comes crumbling down around her and her small dull world suddenly opens up. Andrei maybe a hitman for the Bratva but he's not the cold unfeeling guy we so often get, he's known as the Shadow, he's an intelligent killer who's experienced so much since his early life in a Siberian orphanage.Ĭassandra on the other hand has experienced so little, she's been raised in a strict religious house with a father who believes woman are born to serve men, she's been homeschooled and hardly ever leaves the house.
