Beautiful Cruelty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798308931546)

What's worse than catching your fianc? cheating three days before your wedding?
Try getting into a verbal sparring match with a billionaire bratva boss...
And then accidentally stealing his dry cleaning.

Vadim Stravinsky isn't just ruthless, rich, and ridiculously handsome.
He's the kind of man who notices the hand-stitched vamp on my shoes.
But won't care that I'm still wearing another man's ring.

Lucky me, he gave me his business card before we parted ways.
Which means I should just call him and correct this dry-cleaning mix-up.
But after some goading from my sister and a moment of weakness, I send something else

Something... reckless.
A photo I can't unsend--one that guarantees he'll come for me.

When he corners me again with his storm-gray gaze, I expect threats.
Instead, he offers me a deal:

Marry him.
Play his bride.
Help him destroy a monster.

But Vadim doesn't want pretend.
He wants my defiance.
My fear.
Me.

And the closer we get to pulling off his dangerous plan, the harder it is to remember this marriage is just a ruse...

Suddenly, every whispered word starts feeling like a promise.
Every bruising kiss like a claim.

Surviving this wedding might be easy.
Surviving him?
That's the real challenge.

Beautiful Cruelty is Book 1 of the Stravinsky Bratva duet. This is NOT a standalone. The story concludes in Book 2 - Beautiful Agony.
