BLURB


There was right, there was wrong, and then there was the in-between.


The place where normal people reside, understanding that there are two sides to every coin. People that do bad things for good reasons. People that do bad things for bad reasons.


First, I knew that Shasha Semyonov was a bad man. One that did bad things for bad reasons. That didn’t mean that I was rational when it came to him.


He was toxic to my health, yet I wanted him anyway.


They say the first step to healing is admitting when you have a problem.


My problem happened to be six feet two inches tall, two hundred and twenty pounds, and bearded to perfection.


Oh, and he was also the scariest guy I knew.


Meanwhile, I was the laughingstock of the city.


The woman who was cheated on by her boyfriend with her best friend, and it was captured live while a band played in the background, perfectly accenting the humiliating video.


There was no way that Shasha Semyonov would notice me.

Right?


Wrong.


I’d definitely been noticed.

Review: Stay Toxic - Lani Lynn Vale

Stay Toxic Stay Toxic by Lani Lynn Vale
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Stay Toxic by Lani Lynn Vale is book one in the new series, Semyonov Bratva. The story focuses on Sasha and Brecken. Sasha is the pakhan of the bratva and although portrayed as someone not to mess with, underneath he is caring, strong, sweet and stubborn, especially when it comes to Brecken and looking after her. When Brecken tries to help a friend, it puts her in the crosshairs of not only her ex-fiancé and a former best friend, but also her friend’s ex-husband who will do anything to find his wife.

I loved how strong Brecken was, how sassy and sweet she was and how she wouldn’t put up with rubbish from anyone, especially after all that she has been through. She has an instant attraction to Sasha and even though she knows that he’s dangerous, there is just something about him that pulls her towards him.

This was a good start to a new series with lots of drama and a touch of spice added into the mix. I can’t wait to see what else this series has to offer.

ARC received for a fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊
