Cruel Vows : Vanya and Adrian's Story
Jo McCall

After watching my entire family get slaughtered, I ran straight into the arms of the most dangerous man I know—Adrian Volkov.
Ruthless. Unforgiving. The head of the Volkov Crime Family and a kingpin in the Sovereign Brother Syndicate.
He also happens to be my dead best friend’s husband.
And he hates me for it.
But hate isn’t enough to stop him from claiming me. His protection comes at a price—one that binds me to him in ways I never saw coming. I’m nothing more than a pawn in his violent, merciless world.
And when the dust settles, I won’t just belong to him. I’ll be his wife.

A Note from the publisher:
Cruel Vows is the first book in the Sovereign Brotherhood. It can be read as a complete standalone. Although I enjoy shy, reserved heroines, I do not write doormats but I also do not write super over the top badass women. The heroines in my book build themselves up but they never lose that vulnerability. This is not a mafia-lite book and while there is nothing irredeemable about my anti-hero's, they aren't always the nicest to their ladies at first. Be warned. If you are looking for a cinnamon roll, this book is not for you.
