Anton: A Mafia Romance (Underworld Book 5)

This book gave me all the feels. I felt the love Violet and Anton have for each other, the helplessness of their situation, and they’re absolute joy when they were finally able to be with one another. Their story is so beautiful.

Another Character of Sophie’s to Love

Sophie needs to stop creating these amazing alpha men who are ruining any aspects of real men to date. Ha ha. This is a little different than her other mafia books because 1) She wrote this in the third person which I had to get used to after reading her other books. 2) Anton isn’t really part of the “family”, but he is the bodyguard.

I don’t want to go into too much detail explaining how he meets Violet because I don’t want to ruin any part of the story. All I will say is that it is another wonderful love story. I know there are some women today who would not like a man to “save them” because they want to be strong themselves. I would love to be with a man who loves me so much that he would fight for me and be willing to kill for me. Anton was not cruel, but he was determined to do his job correctly. He was a faithful servant to the mafia boss and was treated as a son.

We also learn more of Russia and France’s history. Sophie hit it out of the park with her research to write this book. I always enjoy her books because we don’t only get a love story that is hot and sizzling, but there is depth to the story. You feel like you are learning more each time you read one of her books. She would be a great history teacher.

I loved this book!

Long lost relatives drag violet into the life she never knew she had. Spotted while working in a Russian bar a family head, Viktor is shocked to see her on stage, while his lieutenant, Anton is gobsmacked by her beauty and voice. Violet learns of her unknown father and brother among other family members. But through it all is drawn to Anton and his power. But as an heir they cannot be together. But they are like magnets in orbit. Loved the intrigue and subterfuge that you could see lurking unanswered the surface of the changing face of the family. Loved the story. Anton and violet were hot! I would recommend this book. Once I started reading I couldn’t stop.

Violet by Sophia Lark is a fast paced novel that is part of the colors of crime series. It can be read as a stand- alone novel, as well as, part of the series. With interesting characters, a little romance, a lot of bad boys and a few serious surprises this story will not disappoint! The story features Violet who earns money playing her guitar and singing in the subway and in a sleazy Russian club where the mafia tend to gather. This is where she meets Victor Turgenev, head mafia boss of Paris and his lead lieutenant, Anton. Sparks fly as Sophia “runs into” Anton several times in varying situations. Interactions really start to heat up when she is kidnapped and starts to learn she has more to her past than she was aware. As the plot unfolds, the drama builds and the flames of romance burn brightly. I highly recommend this novel and the crime series in general. I was given an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

VIOLET, A DARK MAFIA ROMANCE (Colors of Crime Book 3) by Sophie Lark
This book is the best I have read so far of Sophie Lark. In fact I was not able to put it down last night until I finished it. This story has drama, intrigue, suspense, well developed characters, a strong story line, twists, turns, and a forbidden romance with passionate chemistry. I give this 5 stars.

Violet’s life is not an easy one. Violet does everything she can to get by in London, but her life is turned upside down after a chance encounter with a man named, Viktor. This book is full of suspense and forbidden love. Anton has been in Viktor’s employ for many many years. And when Violet crashes into his life he know that his life will never be the same. I have read a few of the books in this series and each one I have read I could not put down.

The new girl in the ‘hood – a sexy mafia romance

—>>> Violet is firmly secure as a much-loved member of what is left of the Black family, but all that she knows and grew up with gets a solid shake-out when she is kidnapped right out of her bed one night by a stoic Russian enforcer and secreted across the waters to THE Bratva kingpin. Now ensconced in his French mansion, Violet’s days of busking on London’s prized subway lines and singing in clubs is shed like day-old clothes while she tries to navigate the murky waters of the mafia family whose fold she is firmly brought into, surrounded by sly-eyed people who are in no hurry to welcome her. An unlikely attraction to her kidnapper Anton turns into a first real love for Violet, but it is a hopeless match for them both, with her being groomed for purposes unknown. Violet manages to hold her head above water and shows she has more than enough steel in her spine to do what she needs to do. Violet’s story was a sexy mafia romance, with input and appearances from her now-familiar siblings as well as drama and action befitting mafia notoriety!

The characters in this story were savage in their brutality but loved with a passion
by sewsummore

Violet was a woman that danced to her own tune, music was her life and every day that she played her old guitar and sang was a good day. Then she met the man she would soon call father, a Russian Bratva and head of the Bratva in Paris. With him was his second, Anton, a man who would later become her husband. This was a story full of drama, jealousy and death to those who would usurp the natural order of things. Violet had always though she was a Black like her brother and sister but she learned that she had also a Russian half brother as well. A man who at first resented her to become the man who saved her life, this story blew me away with bitter rivalry and violence, The characters in this story were savage in their brutality but loved with a passion. A great read in a read series.

I was allowed to read and advance copy of this book via Booksprout and this is my honest review.

Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. Violet was at work singing at the Russian bar, when she finished her last song, she walked over to her boss, he wanted to introduce her to Anton at his request. When she fell asleep at home Violet was kidnapped. The suspense, action, twist and turns and a rollercoaster of emotions that makes you want more. It definitely was a book you did not want to put down.
