Oryolov Bratva

People call time the subtle thief of youth, but they’re all wrong. It’s not time that’s the thief—it’s sorrow.

1. CRUEL PARADISE by Nicole Fox

SYNOPSIS

What’s more embarrassing than a butt dial? Butt dialing your boss… And leaving a dirty voicemail when you’re uhh… ‘thinking’ about them.

Working as Ruslan Oryolov’s personal assistant is the job from hell. After a long day spent tending to the billionaire’s every whim, I need some stress relief. So when I get home that night, that’s exactly what I do. Problem is, my thoughts are still stuck on the bosshole who’s ruining my life.

That’s fine—because of all Ruslan’s many sins, being gorgeous might be the most dangerous. Tonight, fantasies of him are just what I need to push me over the edge. But when I look down at my phone squished next to me, there it is. A voicemail for 7 minutes and 32 seconds… Sent to Ruslan Oryolov.

I panic and throw my phone across the room. But there is no undoing the damage done by my very vocal O. So what can I do? My plan was to just avoid him and act like it never happened. Besides, no one that busy checks their voicemails, right? But when he schedules a one-on-one meeting with me for exactly 7 minutes and 32 seconds, one thing is for certain: He. Heard. Everything.

2. CRUEL PROMISE by Nicole Fox

SYNOPSIS

It started with an accidental dirty voicemail. It ended with my boss’s baby in my belly. One butt dial changed my life forever. Ruslan Oryolov went from boss to baby daddy in the blink of an eye. But other stuff changed along the way, too.

I learned who Ruslan is—who he REALLY is. I learned that the children I’ve come to love as my own can’t stay in this city anymore. I’ve learned that none of us can. So we’re running. But of course, Ruslan won’t let us go that easily. And when he learns about what I’m taking from him—the baby in my belly—he makes me a promise.

A very, very cruel promise. No matter where you go… No matter how far or how fast you flee… I will always find you.
