I can buy my secretary’s submission—or I can take it the hard way.My ex-wife’s fatal car crash left me with a cruel gift:A daughter I never knew I had.I am a billionaire. A mob boss. A titan.Not a babysitter.I need a woman’s touch to help raise my daughter.My secretary doesn’t know it yet, but her life is about to change.Charlotte is gorgeous. Feisty.And best of all… gorgeous. Feisty.
And best of all…
Desperate.
So from now on, we’re going to do things my way.
It starts with five little words:
“Let me own you, kitten.”
KOSTYA is a standalone, single dad mafia billionaire romance.more
I am a fan of this author, but honestly, this book had everything: Characters to love and characters to hate, plot with continual action-no slow downs, and a nearly three year old to care for and enjoy. There was a time or two I did want to tell this Billionaire Bratva Boss, Kostya, how to run his business. Turned out he knew best! Don’t miss reading this book!
Kostya is the head of the Russian Bratva, and he ends up as a single dad to a 3-year-old daughter, that he knew nothing about, he is at a loss. Charlotte is his PA, and he convinces her to help him look after his little girl. The attraction between these two is undeniable, but will they act on these feelings? This is a well written addictive page turner with twist along the way, which had me totally captivated throughout, and I highly recommend for all readers.
What an action-packed plot full of tension, deceit, misunderstandings, intrigue, twists and turns and an overall fantastic romance. I really enjoy reading this author, she uses lovely language that brings the scenes and the characters to life where they are literally jumping off the page. I found this book to be mesmerizing and I couldn’t put it down once I had started it, luckily, I’m a fast reader!
This book!!! What can i say? I loved it! I have read several of books from this author, but this one has to be my favorite. The story was good and i was sucked into it quickly.
Kostya is your typical mob boss that has issues and a past and has to work through some stuff at the same time.
Charlotte is the sexy secretary that doesn’t know she’s sexy.
I don’t want to give away too much because if i did it could ruin the story! But this again is by far one of my favs and if you love action, drama, sexy, grab this book up and fall in love with a mob boss!

Phenomenal!! I’m an absolute fan of Nicole Fox and this book is a good representation of her writing. Kostya is the lead to the Zinon Bratva who actually has a heart. Being a billionaire he donates money and one place is a children’s hospital. He was married once to Natasha who blackmailed him. All the lies and deception hurt him. He wakes one morning to find she left her wedding ring and him. Fast forward a few years and Kostya gets word that she was involved in a car accident where she died. But the kicker was he has a daughter he didn’t know about.
Charlotte is a wonderful person. She’s an awesome assistant to Kostya as well as a great nanny. She works to support her mom whom is a nasty, self centered b*#%*. One day she hides a recording device because she wants to know what Kostya does. Well his right hand man finds the device and Kostya thinks she working for the Whelans, his rival. Things get heated between Kostya, Charlotte, his right hand man and the Whelans.
While Charlotte’s mom was babysitting Kostya’s daughter she went snooping. She finds letters he wrote to his daughter just in case he dies. She uses those letter to blackmail Kostya into finding her other daughter. But because of his past with his ex wife he believes Charlotte is in on it with her mom. He fires her. The Whalens kidnap Charlotte because they believe it’s a way to get what they want from Kostya and hurt him in the process. Charlotte has a secret that she wasn’t able to tell Kostya. Even though he fired her will he rescue her or attempt to? Will Charlotte be able to tell him her secret? Will she ever find and keep her happiness?

A new twist on the surprise baby theme. Kostya is the wealthy “legitimate” business owner that is constantly plagued by rumors of his Mafia involvement. Charlotte is the adorable, naïve, clumsy assistant to Kostya who has a secret crush on her Boss but is not aware that he is hiding an attraction to her as well. Things get complicated when Kostya is informed his ex-wife was killed in a car accident and he is the father to a 3 year old daughter whose existence he was not aware of; he makes Charlotte an offer to change jobs and become his daughter’s nanny/caretaker. There are twists and turns and danger throughout the book as Charlotte becomes more aware of the life Kostya has kept hidden from her while trying to reconcile the feelings she has developed for him. No one writes Mafia Romances like Nicole Fox and this one was no exception.
I was given an ARC in exchange for an honest and totally voluntary review.
Loved this dark twisted mafia tale.
Kostya Zinon is boss of the Russia Bratva, but also runs legitimate businesses where he has Charlotte working for him as his executive assistant. Then he finds out his conniving ex-wife died in a car crash and he has a three year old daughter named Tiana. He convinces Charlotte to become Tiana’s caretaker and move in with him. Charlotte and Kostya each have feelings for the other but try to stay professional around each other. That plan fails and with it Charlotte learns who Kostya really is. Can she stay with him after she finds out the truth? Are her and Tiana safe from Kostya’s enemies? This is a wonderful read and I highly recommend it!

Full of intense action and adventure with raw graphic scenes full of emotion and passion as Kostya battled with his feelings for Charlotte. A match not made in heaven, but full of chemistry and snark as Charlotte had to deal with the truth about her feelings for Kostya and his brutal and violent lifestyle.
His three year old daughter was the dealbreaker in the mix as Charlotte’s connection with her exposed her protective maternal instincts that has her risking it all.
I appreciated the lack of cheating even though Kostya suspected Charlotte of betrayal. Kudos to the author for bringing this all to a satisfying end even though she was a lot gentler than I would have been when it came it to Charlotte’s selfish mom.
Very enjoyable and well told Mafia Romance!

I’ve read quite a few of Nicole Fox’s book and really enjoy them. This story was fast-paced that I had to finish reading the story in one sitting. Charlotte isn’t a fashion model. She’s a normal everyday girl. Charlotte is supporting her mother who you would rather throw under a bus. Kosta finds out that he has a daughter he didn’t know about and needs a nanny. Not just any nanny but Charlotte. Poor Kostya thinks that Charlotte is made by the same ink as her mother. Will Charlotte and Kostya get their HEA. Need to read this story to find out.

Mafia Romances are my favorite genre. So I have read a quite a few Nicole Fox works. Nicole fox is always able to keep me engaged with her characters. Kostya is no different in that respect. Kostya is a strong alpha male and Head of the Bratva and has an infatuation with his personal assistant, Charlotte. Charlotte has had feeling for Kostya for awhile. Neither Kostya nor Charlotte really seem to know how to act on their feeling. Kostya does not want Charlotte in his Bratva life and Charlotte does not want to get invovled with her boss because she needs her job. Kostya and Charlotte’s relationship is an interesting read, but it is also frustrating. Throw Charlotte’s terrible mother and this book makes me want to throttle Charlotte for putting up with her because Charlotte deserves way better. This book is full of twists and a kidnapping. I would definitely characterize this book as a Dark Mafia romance. But I loved every minute of it.

I am admittedly an unabashed fan of Nicole Fox. I am addicted to her books and this book was no exception. Kostya and Charlotte were such compelling characters with great depth. Kostya was a man one minute you could hate, the next love to hate, and the next love. Charlotte was his long suffering PA turned nanny when an unknown daughter appears. I loved the push and pull of their relationship, the twists and turns in the story, and the whole story unfolded at a perfect pace. I loved this book and throughly recommend it.
I received a copy from Booksprout and this is my honest review.
Kostaya is a mafia boss and Charlotte is his assistant and they both have feelings for one another. Natasha his ex wife just died and has hidden a huge secret from Kostya. He has a 3 year old daughter. Koataya offers Charlotte a huge amount of money to move in with him and help him raise his daughter. Things go from crazy to crazier. Really nail biting good.
