Nikolai: A Mafia Prince Romance by Shandi Boyes – Review by Michelle Austin

Nikolai: A Mafia Prince RomanceNikolai: A Mafia Prince Romance by Shandi Boyes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Nikolai was a great 5 star read.
All I can say is wow, the way the scenes are written my heart was racing right along with Justine’s especially when Nikolai tried to intimidate her with words and looks. The chemistry these two have is off the charts hot.

Justine is a first year lawyer, she is a strong, sassy character with some secrets of her own. She has a brother who saved her life, so now she’s trying to save his. When Nikolai ends up on house arrest at Justine’s for 72 hours, she tries her best to avoid him but he is making it very difficult. What will happen if he finds out her secret?

Nikolai is an extremely hot mafia Prince. At first I wasn’t sure I liked him but it didn’t take me long to fall hard. He is arrogant, controlling, dangerous, intimidating, and very smart. He knows what he wants and it’s Justine.

I don’t trust anyone, Ahren. The devil was once an angel too. – Nikolai

There is so much more to this great read. I had several LOL moments along with some heart stopping ones. All of the secondary characters were great. The ending left me wanting more and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book. 1-click and get started today on this great steamy read.

Oh my … Nikolai: A Mafia Prince Romance is the first book in Shandi Boyes’ Russian Mob Chronicles and even though you can read it/them in their own rights, they are sort of also part of her mind blowing Enigma series (and that is also where we met Nikolai for the very first time)!! I read the first Enigma book over a year ago and I have been hooked ever since! I absolutely love how ‘fast’ she is and never leaves us waiting too long!
Nikolai is a story filled with twists and turns and danger and action and … well, it is a mafia story so I am sure you can imagine, at least to a certain extent! This story is obviously about Nikolai who at first I had really hard time to like and then, the more I learnt the more I started … hmmm…. liking him?!… and then there is Justine … every hero needs a heroine and I generally go more for stronger females but the more I read the more I could feel the heat and the chemistry between them … AND do not forget all these other little stories and sideliners that are peppered through the main story and I think I might need to re-read it as there were so many layers and I was simply inhaling it and I want to be prepared for the next steps of the journey …
If you are looking for a new writer then please, be invited into the world of Shandi Boyes! You will not be bored AND there are loads of stories to gorge on!

Holy hotness!

You never know what you’re going to get when you read Shandi Boyes’ stories, but you can be sure you are going to get one heck of a story. One that will tease you, one that will break your heart and put it back together, one that will take you on an adventure like you have never been on before. Nikolai is no less. In fact, Nikolai is so much more. So much in fact that Shandi Boyes couldn’t fit him into one book!

I love that this story has a few hidden details. We don’t learn everything about Nikolai and Justine. Boyes gives us the details slowly over the course of the story. Which I am sure leads to the next book. I do wish we could have learned more details about Justine’s past. I get the feeling that it’s bad, but maybe that’s why Boyes is sparing the readers from that horror.

This story is not for the faint of heart or the under 18 reader. There are swear words and sexy situations. There’s violence and even more sex. The story is easy to read in that it flows well. No crazy flash backs, no crazy exes screwing everything up. There is one hot alpha telling us what he wants. And boy oh boy does he get it!

The ending with Nikolai’s brilliant plan to make everything right is beyond awesome! That third one! Oh my! What an ending! I am so ready to read the next one!

Nikolai: A Mafia Prince Romance (The Russian Mob Chronicles Book #1) by Shandi Boyes – Review by Angela Hayes

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Nikolai: A Mafia Prince Romance is the first book in the Russian Mob Chronicles- and part of the incredible Enigma series by Shandi Boyes. This is an exceptionally well written story- and nothing less than what I have come to expect from this consummate storyteller. She manages to enthrall me with every new release, each book leaving me in complete awe of her talents. This book can be read as a standalone but believe me when I say that one of Ms. Boyes books will never be enough and you will WANT to go back to read the other books in the series too.
This is a captivating mafia romance, with plenty of twists, danger, action, some violence, and sooooooo much more. I fell in love with the characters and their story, but then again, I expected nothing less from Ms. Boyes.
We met Nikolai previously in the series, and I was immediately intrigued by him- but I have to be honest and say that I wasn’t sure I was going to ‘like’ him from what we had seen of him. I didn’t think I could become invested in him or his story- but I WAS SO WRONG!!! Ms. Boyes wove her magic, drawing me into her story and showed me that there is so much more to Nikolai than I had ever expected- and I couldn’t have loved him more than I do. Justine is fantastic, I just love how perfect she is and how wonderful these two are together. There are so many layers, facets and interwoven details throughout this series, little things that you read several books back, end up coming into play in ways you never expected. Brilliant!!!!
I have developed a serious addiction to Ms. Boyes books- and it’s one I’m not about to cure anytime soon!
Bring on the next book!
KUDOS!!!

Thank you, Ms. Boyes!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book by this author in this series and I enjoyed it. It is a fast paced, engaging story that pulled me in from the first page. The thing that stuck out to me the most with this book is the chemistry between Nikolai and Justine, it was an instant attraction for them. These characters are lovable and relateable. They made me feel as if I was right there with them. There is a little bit of everything in this book from steam to action. I highly recommend this book.
