Taken by the Bratva is the fifth and final book in the Bratva Brotherhood Series. It’s a safe story with no cliffhangers, a HEA and no cheating. This story has hot scenes, some dark themes, and bad language. Like most of the books by Bianca Cole it features an over the top possessive alpha male.

Kira is Bratva royalty and Pavel is her bodyguard. Kira thinks their forbidden attraction is mutual. When Pavel kidnaps her, is he saving Kira or betraying her? Told in dual POV, this story has themes of discipline, an alpha male protector, an innocent & spoiled but caring female lead and detailed intimacy. “Taken By the Bratva” is a page-turner, with a plot that keeps you on edge. I didn’t know it was the last of 5 books in a series! So, it can be read as a standalone, but I’ll be reading the previous books to find out what I missed! Very entertaining with a hard fought happily ever after!

Pavel and Kira run from her arranged marraige. Danger will surround them and desire will pull them together! This dark, dangerous dominant man will do anything to keep her safe! An action packed steamy, sexy read!!
Loved this installment!
It’s been a little while since I’ve read the previous books to this one but was still an easy read for me, things came back to me as I read on.
I understood Pavel and Kira’s uneasiness regarding a certain pakhan towards the end and I don’t mean Kira evil uncle and ‘fiance’ (technically)
Didn’t remember Pavel age at first, but you get the impression he’s like a good bottle of wine….. and don’t underestimate Kira, she’s no fool!

Pavel and Kira’s forbidden love!
by sewsummore
Pavel had been Kira’s bodyguard for over a year, and as each day that passed, the harder it was for Pavel to keep his attraction to her a secret. Kira was a naughty, brat who continued to tease him but he knew that she felt the same way about him. He knew that he was not worthy of her love and the time would come when her uncle would arrange her marriage to another, but until that time came he would watch over and protect her with his life. When that time came, Pavel did the only thing he could and kidnapped her, intending to take her to Bratva friends in New York. Unfortunately they never made it to New York, and Pavel was captured while Kira made her way to Pavel’s friends in New York. Andrei was the head of the New York Bratva, it was on his orders that Pavel at become Kira’s bodyguard. With Kira’s help they would rescue Pavel and remove those that threatened Andrei’s rule. I found this book a compelling read, Kira was a determined woman who proved her devotion to Pavel, insisting that he be rescued. While much of what happened had been predicted, the love between Kira and Pavel was unexpected, but welcomed just the same. I have read all the previous books in this series and enjoyed read all of them, the characters are believable and the twisted storylines captured my imagination from the first book to this last book in the series.

The devil, also known as Dima, rears his ugly head again. This time it’s as the fiance of Kira, the niece of the Bratva leader (pakhan) in San Diego. Kira’s uncle is even worse than dimwitted and demented Dima.
Pavel and Kira’s story is exciting, electric, and dangerous as Pavel strives to protect Kira from her uncle and newly appointed fiance. Despite the 25 year age difference, they have fantastic chemistry – even when she’s being bratty.
I loved this series and am sad to see it go. It really needs an extended epilogue with steamy updates on all of the couples.
I found myself enjoying this well written Dark storyline from start to finish.. The characters are well developed and engaging and the chemistry is undeniable throughout the pages.

Once she is taken what fun they have
Taken by the Bratva is the fifth and final book in the Bratva Brotherhood series and what a great book it is to end the series on. I have read each book in the series and have to say that Taken is one fast-paced, thrilling and sexy read. Plus add in a hot romance, some BDSM, an older silver fox Russian Mafia bodyguard and a young woman being forced into a marriage that she does not want by an evil uncle, a kidnapping and a whole lot more all wrapped up into a great story. I really loved this story and am sorry that this is the last book of the series.
I received a copy of this book for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This is book 5 in the bratva brotherhood series. Pavel is trying to prove himself to Andrei and has been undercover in a different brotherhood. Kira is pavels charge but when her Uncle announces her marriage to a cruel man what will pavel end up doing? I voluntarily reviewed this ARC.
I absolutely loved this book and was honored to have been able to read and review. It was such a phenomenal read and had amazing characters as well as an amazing story line. I just could not get enough of it and once I started reading it I could not put it down. I recommend that you read it.
I loved that Pavel is sent to rescue Kira from the horrible marriage she is being forced into. This book had the perfect amount of suspense and drama that made this couples story all the more interesting. I enjoyed reading this and will definitely be rereading again.

A fast-paced steamy action packed fairly short read from this author in this final book of the series. I have loved all the previous books and I love this one as well. The characters are fairly likable and very well written. I found this to be a captivating book reading it when I should have been sleeping.

Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. I absolutely love the Bratva books and this one is just as good, it makes you pay attention from the start. Keira was given to a monster while Pavel protected her and that’s when their chemistry was getting hotter.

My first book for this author and I wish I found her sooner! This book could be read as a standalone. It’s the last in the series and it’s amazing! This book has the hot alpha Pavel who is hiding his attraction to Kira because she’s under his protection. But when he takes her away before she marries, that mutual attraction is about to combust! With many twist and turns can they be together?

A dark, suspenseful story that will heat up your e-reader!
I could not put this book down as rooting for Pavel to give in to his desire for Kira despite their age difference and his low level in the brotherhood. Pavel is Kira’s bodyguard, and for the past year they have always kept their distance, while their inner thoughts were anything but clean. Yet when Kira’s uncle announces his news, Pavel has hours to enact his plan to take Kira to NY to his real pakhan, Andrei. While driving cross country, their underlying magnetism can’t be ignored. But with risk of capture their constant friend, Pavel will risk his life to keep Kira safe? Will Kira be able to put on the performance of her life to help Pavel? The plot twists will keep you intrigued, and Andrei’s orchestrating the brotherhood is unexpected.
This book has it all. The hot but slow romance that gets very spicy. The action and suspense of the mafia angle, with all the drama. The backstories that fill in most of the gaps and round out the characters. The characters who are mostly strong and determined. The surprising and sudden twists and turns that keep the pages turning and you on the edge of your seat. Loved the action and the final pages do it justice. Can not wait for another book by this author. Well done.
