When the Pakhan Kneels

Katerina Rostova is traded to Levon Sokolov in a marriage contract designed to settle three million dollars of debt and fifteen years of blood vengeance. Inside the Pakhan’s frozen Chicago fortress, she turns obedience into a weapon while Levon discovers that the pawn he bought may be the only person worthy of his trust. When her bloodline becomes grounds for execution, they must choose between the Bratva code and a vow powerful enough to burn an empire.

Her father sold her to Chicago’s most feared Pakhan—but the blood bride he meant to punish may become the queen he kneels to.
