A Cinderella tale with guns and a Russian fairy godfather

My foster sister is missing, and the men who kidnapped her have turned their sights on me.

I'm running, but I can't hide forever. Sleeping rough on London's streets is dangerous, but going back means death. I've seen their faces. I know their secrets. And I have enough evidence to destroy them.

When I'm followed, I run again-straight into the path of a bullet meant for a handsome stranger.

He's an arms dealer with ties to the Russian mafia. He says he'll protect me. He says he'll kill for me.

His name is Kolya Barinov, and this is the beginning of our story.

The Runaway & The Russian is a slow-burn age gap romance packed with mafia danger, found family, emotional damage, and a hero who would raze the world to keep his girl safe.

Praise for the Runaway series:

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Kolya is hot, caring, and obviously adores Tess throughout the story, so much so that I may have swooned on more than one occasion.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The chemistry these two have together is off the charts.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely amazing story. Touches on a taboo subject however was written brilliantly and dealt [with] well.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This book... wow the storyline... It's unique and interesting and I loved it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would.
