Raven: A Billionaire Russian Mafia Romance (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781960332875)

My name is Charlotte Thoreaú Bjorn, widow of the late Lars Bjorn, Crown Prince of Denmark. But I'm better known as Raven, the leggy supermodel with violet eyes, long black hair, and bad girl of the runway.

My modeling career is over when I'm framed and convicted of a murder I never committed and spent six years in prison. I want to clear my name, and learn there was a witness, Dimitry Zhukov, who has ties to the Russian Mafia, and is the son of a Russian oligarch in Moscow.

Dimitry and my chemistry is off the chart. But our steamy romance becomes entangled when Adeline Bjorn, my former sister-in-law, decides to steal the tiara Lars gave me. She will stop at nothing to get it, even hooking up with Sergei Zhukov, who stole $17 billion in cryptocurrency from two Russian oligarchs ― Igor Smirnoff and Andrei Zhukov, Dimitry's father, and Pakhan (don) to a Russian Bratva (mafia). Igor Smirnoff is the father of the man I was framed for murder.

My brother, Jax Thoreaú, stayed in my house in the Village in NYC. But while I was in prison, Jax and his life partner Mick engaged in sexual trysts with Igor Smirnoff. They use the relationship with Igor to plot the thief of $17 billion in cryto along with Sergei. Mick is murdered. Jax commits suicide, thus leaving all the crypto with Sergei.

I decided to return the tiara (insured for $30 million) to Astrid Bjorn, Queen of Denmark and mother of my late husband in Copenhagen. While there I visit the crypt where Lars and our deceased baby are entombed. While inside the crypt, Adeline shoots me and I end up in the hospital in Copenhagen. Adeline escapes and gets back with Sergei.

Dimitry's father tasks him to find Sergei and return him to Moscow. Dimitry and his men do find Sergei and Adeline in SoHo in the Manhattan area of NYC. They kill Sergei's men, then get him onto the Zhukov jet to transport him to Moscow. Dimitry takes Adeline to Charlotte's brownstone (Charlotte had moved in with Dimitry at his place).

Charlotte gets her revenge. She beats up Adeline and then chops off all of her long hair. Then Charlotte and Dimitry take her to the Royal Jet of Denmark and get her back to her mother, the Queen, in Copenhagen.

All seems peaceful and happy ― Charlotte and Dimitry marry, learn they are expecting a baby. Then, Tatiana, Dimitry's ex-wife, comes to visit him from Moscow. She wants to get back with him, but he shuts her down. Then she claims she had his son. Dimitry knew she was lying and told her so. She got mad, pulled out a gun but was apprehended.

Dimitry, Charlotte, his men escort Tatiana to the Zhukov estate in Moscow. Turns out, Tatiana's son is actually Andrei's.
