ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 14, 2022

Falling in love with Nikolai was never the plan.

The dangerous man had other ideas.

He wanted my body, my love, but most of all my baby.

What the Pakhan wants… the Pakhan gets.

But loving him is so wrong…especially as he’s married to my mother.

REVIEW: TAKEN BY NIKOLAI by Brooke Summers is a contemporary, adult, dark Mafia romance novella focusing on twenty-five year old Bratva princess Yelena Alekseeva, and Bratva Pakhan Nikolai Vasiliev.

WARNING :Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers

Told from dual first person perspectives (Yelana and Nikolai) TAKE BY NIKOLAI follows Bratva Pakhan Nikolai Vasiliev in the days and weeks after the arrival in Austin Texas, of Yelena Alekseeva, the granddaughter of one of the greats but Yelena believes Nikolai is married to her mother Adele, a marriage predicated upon a lie. From the outset, Nikolai’s attraction to Yelena is immediate and visceral, an attraction of which Nikolai quickly sets into motion a plan to seduce and take control of our story line heroine. Yelena Alekseeva is a strong-willed, powerful Bratva princess in her own right but Yelena has a secret, and that secret will surprise even the hardest of men. What ensues is the building relationship between Yelena and Nikolai, and the potential fall-out as Yelena is targeted by someone close.

The relationship between Yelena and Nikolai is one of immediate attraction but Nikolai is Yelena’s mother’s husband, a marriage predicated upon lies and deceit. Nikolai wants Yelena from the moment they met but Yelena is working during her few short weeks in town. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

The secondary and supporting characters include Yelena’s mother Adele, her grandfather Maksim Alekseev, as well as several members of the Alekseev Bratva.

TAKEN BY NIKOLAI is a quick read; a fast paced, gritty age-gap, Mafia romance. The premise is intriguing and captivating; the romance is provocative; the characters are energetic, powerful and charismatic.
