Synopsis:
Maksim Kirov is a mobster who gets what he wants, both at his posh gentleman’s club in Hell’s Kitchen and in the bedroom. Sexy, dangerous, and obsessed with control, he’s risen through the ranks to become a highly respected leader in the tight-knit Tarasov crime syndicate. He rules with an iron fist…until he meets Sydney Martin.
The
Australian-born Sydney is determined to refuse Maks’s advances, despite
their electrifying chemistry. The owner of a neighboring nightclub,
Sydney rules her own domain. But when a deal with a Mexican drug cartel
goes terribly wrong, she has no choice but to turn to Maksim and the
Tarasov organization for protection. Could giving in to their intense
attraction be what saves both Maks and Sydney? Or will their
all-consuming passion—and her shocking secret—destroy their lives?
In the hot and scandalous third installment of the Wanted Men series, lust and loyalty clash in New York’s mob underworld.

My Thoughts:
I haven't read the previous books but I surely will after reading this one!
I thought it was awesome. There was plenty of alpha male to go around. Lots of action, some surprises, great characters, a compelling plot, and more. ;-)
If you like the rough and strong alpha men, you should definitely read this.
I received an ecopy in exchange for my honest opinion. I kept this short and sweet. It was a book and series to easily become obsessed with. I couldn't put it down. It was a breath taking, face breaking, down and dirty, can't get enough kind of read and I can't wait to read about more of these men! ;-)
