Ivan (Her Russian Protector #1): Her Russian Protector #1
Ivan (Her Russian Protector #1): Her Russian Protector #1 | Roxie Rivera
3 posts | 9 read | 2 to read
Desperate to find her sister, Erin goes to the only man in Houston who can help her--Ivan Markovic. The intimidating, tattooed Russian operates one of the most elite mixed-martial arts training centers in the world but it's his shadowy past and reputed connections with Houston's underworld that interest her most. To find her sister, she'll need the help of her big, scary Russian protector-but asking for help from a man like Ivan carries a steep price, one that might just include her heart.

Pickpick

I love novellas that start a series. This is the beginning of some sweet mafia romance, different than others I‘ve read. Erin needs help. Her addicted sister is missing and in trouble. She goes to Ivan because she knows he had fingers in those illegal plots.A good novella. I loved how Ivan tried to not scare Erin and tried to hide his past because he was ashamed. But he was still an strong and protective guy which I appreciate in romance novels.

I put my makeshift lamps on while I finished IVAN. It was pretty good; nice chemistry between the leads (albeit with semi-instalove and no concrete reasons why they were into each other) and a high stakes crime story with a solid emotional core. It felt like it flew by, too, even though Kobo says it took me a solid 1:42 to finish.

This brings my Readathon total to 5:30. #deweyoct #readathon

Time for tea & peanut butter wafers. It felt appropriate to drink this Siberian ginseng & ginger root tea while I read about a Russian guy.

IVAN is the third romance freebie I‘ve pulled off La TBR this afternoon, and the only one that left me hopeful after its first chapter. Fingers crossed it stays good. #deweyoct #readathon
