Nikolai

When opposing sides of the law collide, it isn’t solely the rules being broken.

I dreamed about being an architect when I was a child, but when my brother was sentenced to life behind bars only weeks after pleading for my pardon at the feet of a ruthless mafia don, my plans altered.

Now I am a first-year intern at the number one defense firm in the country. I’m seeking help from the right side of the law, so the last place I expect to find it is in a man who’s far from lawful.

Nikolai Popov was raised in a criminal entity that’s as bigoted as it is violent. The devilishly good-looking bratva prince has lived a hard and fast life that often sees him facing a line-up, yet he’s not spent one night behind bars.

If his lawyer hadn’t left town on a whim, our lives would have never crossed paths. However, a mix-up with Nikolai’s home arrest documentation awards my firm more than the chance to defend him.

He becomes my unexpected house guest for the long weekend.

I’m still hiding the scars of my last tussle with mafia royalty, so I anticipate the worst when I’m thrust back into the dark and dangerous world that almost claimed my life.

Will I survive a second tightrope walk with a mafia prince, or will the protection of a man who has only ever looked out for himself be greater than the deceptive web that tore my family apart?

Please note in this book Nikolai refers to Justine as ангел, which, to him, means Angel in Russian. He pronounces ангел as Ahren (Aaron). This is not the correct pronunciation, but in I Married a Mob Boss (Rico’s story), it states that Nikolai couldn’t speak Russian as well as his siblings, and out of all the sayings he got wrong, this one stuck.

Have you ever wanted something so bad, you’re willing to kill for it?

That’s what I felt the instant my eyes locked on Justine. I could practically taste her innocence on my tongue when she stood across from me, riling me up like the life in her eyes hadn’t been snuffed years ago. The thrill of the chase ran through my blood so fast, for the first time in years, I felt like I had a heart sitting in my chest. Its beat was weak and cold, but it was still thumping nonetheless.


It had literally only been a few hours since I had a woman’s warmth wrapped around my c*ck, but my hunger for Justine was uninhibited. Her scent was so intoxicating, my arrogance fed off it. I craved it like a drug, willing to give up everything to have it embedded in my skin—even my freedom.

They say revenge is a dish best served cold, but Vladimir isn’t going to be that lucky. I was maimed, beaten and tortured as he groomed me to be a natural born killer, and he is going to discover the hard way how precise his tactics were. 


Disrespecting my family is as punishable as disrespecting me. Justine is now my family, and I’ll spill the blood of a thousand men before I let anyone take her away from me.

Nikolai Popov was raised in a criminal entity that’s as bigoted as it is violent. A byproduct of a woman pushed to the brink, he’s lived a hard and fast life that often sees him facing a line-up, yet he's not spent one night behind bars.

After a confrontation with a known enemy, Nikolai stumbles upon an angel precariously balancing on the balustrade between good and evil. To others, she seems too pure to be dragged into the dark and demented world of the Russian Mafia, but Nikolai knows better.

He sees the survivor in her eyes, the one dying to live again. Confident that a long weekend with his newly appointed defense attorney will cure his sudden wish to help a stranger, Nikolai gets inventive with his home arrest documentation.

He thrusts Justine Walsh into a dark and volatile world, having no clue she’s been there before. Will she survive a second meeting with a prince of darkness, or will hell open its gates for an angel for the second time in history?

Nikolai: Through The Devil’s Eyes is a retelling of Nikolai: a Mafia Prince Romance solely through Nikolai's eyes. It can be read as a standalone, however, it is best after the previous Nikolai books to avoid spoilers.*
