Sasha: Belles & Mobsters

This one was such a good read. I loved Sash’s personality it is what really makes you want to not put this book down. Happy reading 🙃

I loved meeting Sasha and Branka in Contract of a Billionaire. I was happy to learn their story continued. I loved Branka and related to her on being left alone. And I adored Sasha. No matter how unhinged he was. I do feel like the story got a bit repetitive and boring in some parts but still a good read. I was sad about Branka not being able to have children. Her father was TRASHHHHH. But I love that they were both willing to adopt.

Such a great story line for these two. They overcome lots of hurdles to fight each other's ghost. An amazing love tale

First, I’ll say that what this author is extraordinarily good at is weaving a tale of complicated characters into a tapestry of passion and romance. No doubt, one of the best there is if crazy obsessed men of romance and relationships are your thing.So, it begs the question with someone as talented as this writer clearly is, why other details become a stumbling block.1. I wish I had gotten a notebook when I started with this author, better yet, I wish she’d publish a diagram of characters and family trees of half siblings, cousins and the like. The relationship ties are very complicated and convoluted in every book. I frankly gave up trying to follow them because if you aren’t keeping notes from the beginning or you’ll get lost.2. Details…details..details. When an author includes a subject matter in their storylines I think it’s important to research that subject thoroughly, especially if a plot line hinges on it.(Spoiler alert…)In the end, Sasha and Blanka decide to adopt because of her supposed “infertility” and accumulation of “scar tissue”, and YET, she was an unpenetrated virgin, who bled from her hymen being broken when they first had sec, despite all the abuse she endured. This MAKES NO SENSE!Any “scar tissue” that would develope that had the possibility of rendering someone “infertile”Would build up in the walls of the uterus,..an extremely unlikely (but possible) occurrence from abuse, and would regardless require crossing the entirety of vaginal canal and the cervix to inflict. You can’t have it both ways.In addition, this condition, even if the other contradictions didn’t take place, would not render her infertile, but could possibly make it impossible for implantation to occur or for her to safely infant to term. In which case, IVF would still be an option and/or a successful biological child could be carried or carried by a surrogate.It’s fine if they adopt, but don’t write it as if they have no other options, or create a scientifically unbelievable reason for them to consider adoption. There are miracles of reproduction and medicine now, in fact, they are pretty status quo. There’s no reason to not write this storyline a little more believably.Otherwise, pretty awesome series. Sucks you right in.

“Sasha” was a good book.Smut scenes were ‘chefs kiss’ A+. Sasha was freaking AMAZING and our heroine was a perfect match for him and was extremely likable. They’re relationship was loving, respectful, and HEALTHY! WE LOVE A HEALTHY TOXIC RELATIONSHIP!However, there was some things about this story I did not like.— this was NOT a standalone. There are a TON of characters in this story that all have deep backstories and connections from previous books. The short dives this book gives into those connections left me confused, completely skipping over them when they were given, and honestly, a bit lost. I would have been happier if the histories of these characters were cut out (especially since these backstories were unnecessary for most of the side characters).— this story spans YEARS. Sure, I get the initial span because it’s part of the story, but I don’t feel like half the book needed to be dedicated to exploring the huge time jumps. And I really don’t feel like the time jumps in the second half of the book were necessary either.Having said that, I really liked this story and the elements in it, but the relationship between our couple 100% was what made this 60+ chapter novel worth it. Good read overall, just wish some of the above mentioned things would have been edited before publication.

Sasha saved Branka, from unwanted attention in the club. Sasha enjoyed saving Branka from the male college student. Sasha the brother that enjoy Killing and danger. Branka didn't want to be weak. I like this story.

Despite the overuse of the words "strangle" (strangled my c***) and the word "explode", I'm giving this 4 stars.Also, no one wants to hear the word "hoo-ha". It's so classless.

Great book! I love when the guy loves the woman from the beginning. She loved him too, I think, but it was so darn sweet the way he did and why he did and for how long. I didn’t care for the wait and the reason behind it. When you read it you’ll know what I’m talking about. The spice was excellent!

I love the name he originally used for himself. I can’t believe how long it took for them to get to the end, so many years. I did enjoy seeing so many scenes from past books from their POVs.The little preview of the next book has me so excited for it.

Protective, fierce brave and devastatingly gorgeous, Sasha will unapologetically steal your heart and you’ll gladly hand it over, no question asked.

4.5★/54🌶/5Sasha is known as this psychotic, crazy, unhinged, unpredictable and maniac killer. Ruthless, relentless and leather. A Satan’s spawn with pale blue eyes. That’s the side everyone sees. But there is that softer, gentler, caring one that’s only reserved for one person - Branka Russo, the only woman that can bring that mobster to his knees. 3 promises, 7 years waiting, that’s how long it took before those two could finally be together. Just after kidnapping her from her wedding.Sasha and Branka are such exceptional, strong and confident characters, but at the same time due to traumatic childhood and past experience, each has their own insecurities that keep creeping out and putting shadows on their lives, making them feel unworthy of love. Their journey to be happy together is long and bumpy, but so worth waiting, and reading it was one massive rollercoaster of suspense, angst, sadness, happiness and laughter - I loved the constant banter, sarcasm, attitudes. The way they grow on each other, slowly opening up about their feelings, emotions and past, allowing them to see deeper underneath the masks reserved for everyone else.Sasha is the 6th instalment in Belles & Monsters Series, dark, gritty, rough. Just like with other books from that world, I was hooked from the very beginning, and my curiosity to see how the story would evolve was stronger than the will to put the book away. Suspenseful, obsessive, possessive and protective, with so much passion, affection, tenderness and caring. Good portion of smut, with light bdsm and a bit of kink.

Through out belle and mobster series i have looked forward to this fire crackling personality… Sasha. And he stood up to my every expectation. The book went through many ups and downs, their own demons but the end was worth it.I loved reading the book.

This story shows how wide the Belles and Mobsters universe has spread, with several cameos from characters in Eva’s other series. Sasha finally gets his story, set over seven years. He sets his heart on Branka but circumstances force him to wait to claim her, kidnapping her as she is about to marry another man. Despite knowing little about each other, they fall in love. It is only later that they discover just how similar their pasts are as they find healing together.Like all Eva’s books, family (whether found or blood relatives) is the most important driving factor in this book, with obsession and passion as close seconds. The next generations of these families are certainly going to have an interesting time with such fiercely protective parents!
