He wasn’t supposed to touch him.
Ivan Baranov is the heir to a ruthless Chicago organization—and he doesn’t make mistakes. Maksim Orlov is the perfect disciplined, lethal, and trained to want nothing.
Until Ivan wants him.
As enemies close in and family loyalty turns poisonous, their attraction becomes the one vulnerability everyone can use against them. But Ivan isn’t willing to be controlled—not by rivals, not by tradition, and not by the father who built him to be cold.
Maksim was made to be a weapon.
Ivan intends to be the one who holds him—and the one who sets him free.
Bound to the Bratva is the first book in the Bratva Dominion series—a dark MM bodyguard romance steeped in power, control, and quiet obsession.
This book is a complete standalone with a hard-earned HEA.
