A big thank you to NetGalley and Relay Publishing for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. This book is part of a series, but reads well as a stand alone. I am not a huge fan of mafia books. This was okay to me. I found it pretty unbelievable. The characters Maya and Kostya fell in love in about a day. This is a very quick read. 3 stars

Alexandra was promised to the head of the Sokolov family. As a young Russian bride she was ready to accept her place and marry a man she had never met. That moment changes when her groom tragically dies he day she is getting married and his son takes his place. New information comes to light and now instead of enjoying her first days of matrimony she becomes a target. Will she be able to prove her innocence in time? Great start to a new series.

Koystya “Mad dog” Sokolov is a Russian enforcer looking for Anatoly Popov, to revenge his father’s death. He was following Maya, Anatoly’s daughter who lives in London and wants nothing to do with her father. But Maya comes to the aid of Roman without knowing who he is. Because of this Roman now returns the favor by protecting her form her father actually. This story also brings in characters from the other two books and really adds to the already exciting story-line. As with the other two books, a quick read with good characters.

With some kickass action, a little hot and heavy romance, that we love, then this is perfect for fans of this author. Totally recommend

This was the third book in the series. I wish it focused more on London. But it was nice to wrap up the storyline.

Loved reading the exciting and engaging third book in the Sokolov Brothers series. Kostov's goal is to kidnap Maya and lure her father into his trap, but a loss of memory, an angel, Maya, and an attraction between two people from enemy families. Read the highly recommended, thrilling storyline and captivating characters, and a must read love story.
I reviewed a copy of the book from NetGalley.

Saving The Russian Enforcer by Leslie North is a great 5 Star Read !!! ARC received c/o NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Opinions expressed are my own....

This is book 2 in this series - ❤️❤️ It !! Roman is sent to pick up a package in Boston & it’s Elena Popov !! Elena is as snarky as she is beautiful & while Roman is very attracted to her immediately he doesn’t trust her & feels she has an ulterior motive. Elena has been sent by her father to assasinate her best friend Alexendar’s husband Viktor. It appears she would do anything for her ruthless father until she learns the one secret he has been keeping from her family she just can’t forgive ...

As with all Leslie North’s book this is a quick one sitting read!! Love the Russian Mobster storyline - with a great HEA!!

Great read to curl up with !!

This is the third of the Sokolov Brother series though it is only the second brother (book two was someone like a brother to them) and is Kostya (Mad Dog) Sokolov's story. He is bent on revenge for the fact that Anatoly Popov tried to kill his brother and succeeded in killing his father so he will do whatever he needs to get revenge after all he is the enforcer for the family. Mya Orlov had changed her surname to get away from her father she wants nothing to do with him or his mafia connections she has even moved to London to get away from him. So when Kostya is attacked and suffers from amnesia and is rescued by Maya things get complicated very quickly. She wonders if he is one of her father's enforcers tracking her down he wonders if she is part of her dads business and was behind the attack on him either way they don't trust each other. The attraction is electric between them but as Kostya starts to remember he needs to be careful but when both there lves are in danger he will step up for the woman he has started to love.

this was probably the better of all of the series but still fell flat. If you are going to write about an alpha male please have them actually be one. I have the same feeling for this one I had for the other two.. when I start to get into it its over.

I am not recommending this book for my students as it contains sex scenes which are not suitable for Malaysian students.
Having said that, I think this is an ok book. I've read a few books that features a pretty girl, gangster / bad boy. Its almost same like those books.

Book 3 in the Sokolov Brothers novella series and hands down my favorite one. Who knew that I would crave happily ever after stories for Russian mobsters?

You know what to expect when reading a book by Leslie. She seems to have found the recipe for a good book with romance and a happy ending.

This is the third and final book of the Sokolov Brothers series. In this book we will meet Kostya and Maya. Kostya is the mad dog of the Sokolov family and Maya is the daughter of their enemy Anatoly Popov who murder their father.

Maya will find Kostya bleeding and with amnesia in an alley while returning back to her home after work. She will be able to see through the exterior to the real man and their chemistry will be undeniable. But will Kostya be able to survive when he will be trapped and captured by her father while trying to catch him?

Will her last hope of reaching her sister and the Sokolov family on time be enough to save Kostya?

A pleasant reading with suspence, fast pace and erotic elrments in the atmosphere.

Saving the Russian Enforcer is the third and final book in the three book Sokolov Brothers series, and what a fabulous story it is! Kostya "Mad Dog" Sokolov is well known for his cold and calculating ability to inflict pain and suffering as a means to an end. But no one has ever really taken time to uncover the depth of emotion and caring that lies beneath his hardened exterior until Maya.

The daughter of his families sworn enemy and the man responsible for his fathers death; Maya Popov is an enigma. Maya left the family fold many years earlier and swore to make a difference in a positive and fulfilling way, far from the cruelty and corruption of her father’s world. However saving a battered and beaten man in an alley, soon throws Maya back into the world she thought she had long escaped.

Maya and Kostya’s romance is heart-warming and life changing in the most endearing and unexpected ways. I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline and the character portrayals were realistic and believable. A great story to end this dangerous and action-packed series and one I can highly recommend.

Fast paced!

Quick read with action, emotion, sweetness and some heat.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.

Emotionally thrilling, sexy, fun and engaging romantic adventure filled with danger, mystery and undeniable passion ..... loved every heart pounding twist and turn.

Kostya “Mad Dog” Sokolov is a man on a mission, out to avenge his fathers death (being a ruthless enforcer is all he knows).... Maya long ago discovered the evil her father lives and breaths and was strong enough to leave her family behind and forge a new life away from her mob beginnings. A very hard to put down reading experience.

Ms. North, does a wonderful job of wrapping up this series. I'm always so amazed by how the love of a good woman can change a man. Especially a man like Kostya. I really liked Saving the Russian Enforcer.
