Beast (Popov Bratva Book 5) by Leslie Georgeson – Review by Angela Shirley
Beast by Leslie Georgeson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Adrik was a lost and lonely child, broken by his father and having the determination that he will not be like him drives him to seek a better life, although that better life brings him in to the Popov Bratva.
Being in the folds he has viewed her from a far as he would never be able to get close to the Princess, which is Annika, but when her life is threatened, she requests the most unlikely bodyguard Adrik. Alone in the lake house will she see through the veil of ugliness and see the true heart of the Beast?
This is the fifth book in this series, and this is a heart-warming beautiful book. It can be read as a stand-alone story, but it would not hurt to read the series if not yet read. Adrik is such a strong character with a horrendous past but shows the determination to work to get better and the overall goal to be nothing like his father.
The chemistry between these two jumped off the page and the forbidden love angle adds the depth to the story as it goes along. I loved the twists and turns of the story and that the pasts intertwine to make the plot even more interesting. I loved how strong the female character Annika was and that it was not her nature to back down from anything. I could not put this book down and can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
