Beautiful Russian Monster was such a good book! I loved Viktor so much, he wasn't even close to the Monster that he sees himself as. Odette writes such a beautiful story that was full of so much suspense. I was on the edge of my seat with this book, wondering if Viktor and Blaire were ever going to catch a break because it seemed like everything that could go wrong, was going wrong for them. I know this book is part of the Vancouver Mafia Series but it's more ex mafia and ex military rolled into one. This book was definitely a slow burn. I have not read a book by Odette that I haven't loved! I would give this book 5 stars!
Favorite Excerpt:
My heart pounded. I licked my dry lips with an equally dry tongue before turning toward the big stranger who controlled my destiny. “What’s happening?”
He looked in his side mirror as he changed lanes. His voice was devoid of emotion. “New plans.”
“What does that mean?”
“First rule. No more questions.”
“Why not?”
He gave me a cold look. “Three seconds, and you already broke the first rule.”
I couldn’t seem to tear my eyes away from his face. All I had were questions. He looked angry, but was that anger directed at me? Was that the face of someone who was planning on killing me? Was his eye contact a good sign or a bad sign? Maybe he was going to ask my grandmother for a ransom? I didn’t know how not to ask my questions. “What are you going to do with me?”
“Second rule. You do what I tell you.”
That sounded ominous. “What are you going to tell me to do?”
He let out an impatient breath. “You’re breaking rule number one.”
“Why is everything a secret?”
“Just be quiet. I need to think.”
