A sizzling mafia romance kicks off this heart-stoppingly sexy spinoff series by Men of Haven author Rhenna Morgan.

“Morgan’s hot first NOLA Knights contemporary pulls out all the stops...perfectly balances deep emotions and tense suspense.” —Publishers Weekly

His world. His rules. Her love.

When it comes to protecting what’s his, Russian vor Sergei Petrovyh's never been afraid of relying on rougher methods. That’s never been more true than when the gorgeous Evette Labadie asks him for a job. He knows enough to keep his hands off someone as beloved by the locals as Evie, but there’s something about her that calls to him—begs him to make Evie his and his alone.

Don’t think Evie hasn’t noticed the powerful Russian mafia boss who makes her favorite diner a regular stop. How can she not? He’s as hot as his reputation is dangerous. But everyone in her struggling New Orleans neighborhood knows he’s the man to turn to when backed into a corner. And right now she needs money to get her son out of trouble.

Her other needs—needs she knows damn well Sergei can more than satisfy—will have to wait.

Evie soon finds herself playing Cinderella to a man who can't get enough of her. She can’t help falling deeper in love with each passing day. But when a turf war between Sergei and a rival brings violence to her doorstep, Evie must come to grips with loving a man who will do anything to defend her…or walk away from her best chance at a happily-ever-after of her very own.
