Wayward (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 1) by Via Mari is a romantic suspense by the author that wrote the A Prestian series. I enjoyed that series, but something about this latest book/series has stepped it up further and I loved every minute of what the author provided in this story. The premise of this story, provided in the synopsis, is only the tip of the iceberg for this captivating read. The author digs immediately in delivering epic dialogue and intriguing suspense that speaks to the reader making this story addicting, unable to put it down. The characters were incredible and their “adventures” make this story unforgettable. Via Mari is an excellent author and that talent shines in Wayward.

Via Mari does it again in Wayward, her first book in the Billionaire Bodyguard series. This book is Sasha and Jay’s story but also other characters from her books pop in. In this book you will find drama, secrets, steam that will keep you wanting to read more and more. I love how Via Mari has such wonderful and complex characters and how I always find myself reading in one sitting. I am always so drawn into the story. Sasha is a Russian Ballerina who is smart, beautiful and independent. And Jay is a bodyguard to two very wealthy men. As soon as these two meet, you can feel the attraction and the passion through the steamy scenes light up this book even more. What I loved the most is the questions I asked myself though the whole time reading. Can Jay overcome Sasha’s past? Can these two find the love they need and deserve in each other? And by the end, my questions were answered. I highly recommend this five star read. You will find passion, tension, and suspense. Via Mari hit it out of the park with this one and I cannot wait to read more in this series!

Wayward (Billionaire Bodyguards Book One) by Via Mari 5-Stars
Wayward is the first book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series. It takes place during the same time as the Torzial Affair series. It features Jay and Sasha as the main characters. Once again this author amazes me with how action packed and easy to follow her storyline is. I loved the steamy scenes as well. I loved learning about Sasha and her background. I cant imagine the heartache she felt from her father not claiming her and trying to kill her. This was such a wonderful book and I cant wait to read more in this series.

In Wayward, the first book in the Billionaire Bodyguards series by author Via Mari we are taken back into the world built in the Prestian series and the Torzial Affair. This time around it’s Jay, the head of security for Chase and Brian, and Russian ballerina, Sasha, whom we met in the earlier Torzial books. Once again, the main characters find themselves in situations that are both gripping and suspenseful and lend to the page turning action of situations that may not always be as they initially seem. While this can be read as a standalone, I believe that it would be better to be read after the other two series. I really enjoyed this story, I liked Jay and how he was so in awe of Sasha from the beginning. I admired Sasha for her strength and determination throughout the story and that’s saying a lot since I really didn’t like her in the Torzial books. I look forward to the next book to see what is going to happen next to these intriguing characters.

Wayward Billionaire Bodyguards Book 1 By Via Mari ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ Romance and suspense and a whole lot of bodyguards. No spoilers here, you need to read it to believe it.
Sasha Koslov is a Ballerina from Russia. She is talented as well as a strong willed woman. When she finds herself in trouble, in comes Jay the head honcho with an elite security team. Not where he was supposed to be, Jay takes the woman and offers her protection. He really has no clue who she is, until trouble comes knocking at his door.
Via Mari has done it again. This story is a quick read. Only because once you start, you can’t put it down. It is full of action as well as a great romance story. I love her characters!! Jay and Sasha are both trying not to fall for the other. This story did not end like I had anticipated, I was wrong every time I thought I knew what would happen, I was wrong. I LOVE this series. Not for those under 18 due to adult theme.

Wayward by Via Mari was a great fast-paced story in a world that will have you turning the pages just to know what happens next. Jay is a bodyguard who works for Chase (Prestian Series) to protect Brian Carrington. After meeting Sasha for the first time, she is all Jay can thinking instead of doing his job. Sasha is a Russian ballerina who has ties to the mafia; she also thinks she’s unlovable. Can Jay make her see that he will do anything for her and love her the way she is meant to be? If you haven’t read Via’s other series, that’s okay each series can be read as standalone. But I recommend that you go read them.

Wayward is the first of Via Mari’s newest series, the Billionaire Bodyguards. If you haven’t had the pleasure of reading anything from Ms. Mari, a little note, this is the spin-off series to her previously released Prestien Series and has some of the fabulous characters that came from them present. I don’t think its necessarily necessary to read those novels first, but I truly think that it enhanced my enjoyment and just made me even more of a fan of these fab people. I don’t think you would be disappointed one bit if you started from the beginning.
Now in this book we get the hot and steamy back stories of Jay and Sasha. I really grew to adore Sasha. Admittedly, I was skeptical that I could like her just based off of her character portrayal in previous novels, but man did Via Mari turned my opinion around right away. I truly love each of the backdrops and the way that Via makes you feel as if you are right there with the characters and enjoying each lavish scene around them right at the same time. Her writing is still strong, detailed, and gripping, only growing stronger with each book. I can’t wait to see what will come next for these fabulous characters that I have grown to love so much! Thanks for this fabulous read Ms. Mari!

Wayward by Via Mari is the first book in the Billionaire Bodyguards Series. This book is full of drama and intrigue. It will have you hooked from the start and does not let go! Via Mari is a relatively new author to me but is one that I have already become hooked on. And this book is probably the best so far. I loved everything this book had going on. Right from the start I knew I was going to be in for a ride. The book had loads of drama. You could feel the tension and the chemistry between the characters. In the best way possible I honestly felt like I didn’t know what was going on or what was going to happen. This author keeps you on the edge of your seat and firmly behind the characters. Which is amazing given that I didn’t really care much either way about Sasha in the Torzial Affair. This was a brilliant book and a great way to start a new series.

Wayward is hands down the BEST book that I have read this year! I was hooked from beginning to end with this thrilling and exciting dark mafia read! It had everything I love in a story and more! I was swept along with the characters story and also to all of the places their story took me! The authors writing was beautifully detailed, I could imagine all of the places she was describing. I did feel like I really knew the main characters Jay and Sasha and I was so invested in their story from the past to the present to their future. I have read quite a few books by this author and she never fails to bring me a story that I love but I can honestly say that this one is absolutely my favourite of hers – it was simply an outstanding read! It has gotten me very excited for what’s to come from the series and I cannot wait!!

I love reading Via Mari’s billionaire stories. First there was The Prestian Series, then The Torzial Affair and now The Billionaire Bodyguards! While I have not read The Prestian Series (yet), I loved the Torzial Affair. The three series mix a little with the characters. You don’t have to read one to understand the others but it sure helps and Mari’s writing style makes you WANT to read every word she writes!
Wayward is about Sasha and Jay. Sasha is a little lost and well “wayward”. But with the help of Jay she is able to figure out her own worth and eventually understands that she is not all on her own. I love the inter-connecting of the story lines and characters. Not only do you get to “meet” new ones but you get to reconnect with old ones.
Looking forward to who’s next in the Billionaire Bodyguards series!

Wayward is the first book in the Billionaire Bodyguards by Via Mari and I was so happy to see some of my favorite characters from the two earlier series.
We know Jay from the Prestian series and holy cow, he is a lot more alpha than I was expecting. I think in my mind I pictures him as a teddy bear under all of the growling. I was so wrong but it works for him.
Sasha was a hot mess in our previous encounters with her and again at the beginning of this book, but she grew on me a lot and though at times I wanted to shake her, I saw a lot of growth in her as the story progressed.
Great way to begin this next series and I can’t wait to see who falls next.

Wayward (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 1) by Via Mari. Via Mari has become one of my favorite authors. I have loved every book I’ve read by her. This one is no exception. This is the story of Jay Head of Security for an Elite Security Team and Sasha, a Russian Ballerina who has ties to the Mafia. Jay is paid to protect 2 of the wealthiest men in the world. He has never felt like he needed to protect someone he’s not assigned to until he meets Sasha. Sasha is on a extended visa to America. She is beautiful, Strong, graceful and her performances are a sight to be held. Sasha has secrets and very bad ones at that. When Jay discovers Sasha’s secret and her being tied to the Mafia that is a danger to his clients will he continue to want to protect Sasha or will he protect his clients only. This book makes you feel like you know these people, like they are friends and you feel like you’ve visited the different places the book is set in. I love her writing and I love books that have characters from other stories continue in the next books! Read Wayward you won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait for the next book!

Wayward (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 1) – Via Mari
5-stars
Wayward by Via Mari is a phenomenal read! It’s steamy, action-packed, intense, detailed, suspenseful and completely unpredictable. This is the first book in Via Mari’s newest series Billionaire Bodyguards, and what a phenomenal start it is. From the very beginning I was hooked, and it didn’t let up until I reached the end. This book follows the same storyline from other series but with different POV’s, which I highly enjoyed. I can honestly say that this book can be read as a standalone, however, the storyline is so incredibly detailed when you have the whole picture.
So, having said that I can honestly say that this author managed to completely change my opinion on some of these characters. I felt really strongly about Sasha and her behavior in The Torzial Affair, yet she grew on me with her own story as I got to know her and connect with her. I love how dynamic her character is and I loved getting to know her.
I would recommend anything from this author as she never ceases to amaze me, and I honestly look forward to continuing with this series. This is a book you won’t want to miss!

If you have read this author before, you know the amazing ride she takes the reader on.
This is the first book of a new series and there were a few times I wanted to throw my Kindle against a wall and scream. There were other times I chuckled at the back and forth of the characters and others where my heart broke.
This is a well-developed plot and the way characters are introduced held my attention from beginning to end. There is a certain delicateness yet wicked strength about this book (I know that’s a total contradiction). It ebbs and flows as the story evolves and the secondary characters play an important role in moving the story forward.
I absolutely will continue reading this story and I am adding it to my TBR again before I begin the next in the series.
I have always enjoyed reading this author’s works and recommend her and this story.

Shattered (the Torzial Affair) Via Mari 4 out of 5 stars
Shattered is the first book in Via Mari’s Torzial Affair Series, this is the second series I plan on reading from this author. The first I read was great but I actually feel more invested in this one. Via Mari is great about addressing this before jumping into the novel, but some readers may find subject manner triggering. We met Jenny in Via Mari’s Prestian Series and she was a character I really took a liking to. I’m thrilled to see we are going to see her story. Overall I’m impressed all around with this book and excited to see how the series plays out.

Do yourself a favor and (1) immediately add this book to your must read list and (2) read every single book by this author. Via Mari has done it again, weaving a spellbinding tale that leaves the reader whiteknuckled and riveted. I loved every page and simply couldn’t read it fast enough. Amazing!

I love this book! This is the first book in this new series for this author. Her writing style is creative and engaging. The characters pop off the pages and make the story seem real. They are connectable and relatable, they make the story. In this book, we get to see Jay’s story and what a story it is. He meets Sasha, problem is she has mafia connections. There is just something about her he can’t get out of his mind. Will he be able to move past that and take her heart? A must read!

Wayward (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 1) By: Via Mari 5 out of 5 stars
The story Wayward (Billionaire Bodyguards Book 1) by Via Mari is an amazing book to read. It pulled me in right from the start and didn’t let me go until I had read the last page. I loved reading about the characters of Sasha Koslov and Jay. Sasha is a Russian Ballerina. She is smart, beautiful, and independent. Sasha is a character that I had empathy for how she has been treated and the experiences that she has had. She is someone that I wanted to find happiness. Jay is the security/bodyguard for two of the wealthiest men in the world. He is trustworthy and can be counted on in a crisis. These two have an attraction/chemistry together. What does the future hold for Sasha and Jay? Will her past be too much for him to overcome? Will they act on their feelings for one another? Read this book to find out. This is a story that is suspenseful and there are times that I was turning pages to find out what happens next. You can feel the emotions/feelings are strong between Jay and Sasha. There are some very steamy scenes that make the temperature in the room rise. You can feel the passion and desire that burns between the two. There is also bantering that goes on between them. I enjoyed reading about the additional characters that interact with Sasha and Jay. Don’t miss out on a book that has parts that will make you swoon. Highly recommended.

Sasha Koslov is a Russian Ballerina, on an extended visa in the United States. She is a vision to uphold, strong, and regal to those who watch her perform and follow her fame, but they don’t know her secrets or the heartache she endures.
Jay is the head of an elite security team, paid to protect two of the wealthiest men in the world. He has never once felt the need to protect someone outside of the job, but there is something about Sasha that calls to him on a primal level. He has wanted her since the very first time he saw her, mesmerized by her beauty, that graceful body, and those penetrating sky-blue eyes.
When he discovers her past, the mafia connections and the implications it has to the billionaires he protects, will it be too much to overcome or with methodical planning can he tame and capture the heart of his wayward angel?
Via Mari was raised in both the United States and United Kingdom and travels extensively. As a child she spent uncountable hours traveling and always enjoyed reading to pass the time and this pattern has continued in her adult life.
In fact, you can still find her curled up in an overstuffed chair, when the wood fire is crackling and popping, reading a page-turning novel until the early hours of the morning, especially during the harsh winters of the Midwestern United States or engrossed in a book as she travels from place to place researching for her own novels, or attending conferences.
Via’s inspiration to publish stemmed from research as she began writing love scenes for her own novels. It became apparent there seemed to be a cultural divide between what people believed was normal or vanilla sexual behavior and that which people considered BDSM and she felt compelled enough to write about the differences, similarities, and extreme feelings and levels of trust individuals in dominant and submissive relationships must have, and the desires that are at the heart of these relationships.

Shattered was a great 5 star read and book one in The Torzial Affair series. I was pulled right in from the beginning and couldn’t put it down until I was done. This is even better than the first series and I loved that one as well.
Jenny and Brian meet while they are best man and maid of honor for their best friends wedding. They have an instant connection that gets a little heated, Brian does something that triggers an unexpected reaction from Jenny and she flees.
He is intrigued by her and wants to know more about her and why she fled. He typically doesn’t want anything more than one night but something is different this time.
Jenny owns Torzial and she doesn’t really know who Brian is. He’s got a lot more power than she realizes. She was instantly attracted to him and when these two reconnect we get quite the hot and steamy scenes.
There is so much going on and my emotions were all over the place. There are some things from the past that come up and create challenges. I really loved both Brian and Jenny they really complimented each other. I will also say that there are some scenes that may be triggers for some. All of the secondary characters were great. Via does a great job of pulling you right in with her writing. I highly recommend this series and the one prior you will love them. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Shattered (The Torzial Affair Book 1) By Via Mari. So let me start by saying these characters will be on my mind for a while because I truly didn’t want this book to end and I’m ready for more. This story definitely may have some triggers for readers but I think the author writes them well. I had quite the emotional roller coaster ride with this book and I loved every minute of it. From page one I knew I’d be up well into the night and that’s just what happened because I couldn’t put it down. I love the writing style, it’s paced nicely and I never felt confusion or that it lacked anything. I’m excited to see where the author takes readers next. Five stars and my highest recommendation!

Shattered is the first book in the Torzial Affair series by Via Mari. The Torzial Affair is a spin of the Prestian Series. I highly recommend you read The Prestian Series first because it will give you the background on all of the characters featured in this book. Shattered had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until I read the last. This is Jenny and Brian’s story. It is full of action and the chemistry they have is off the charts. The story flowand I couldn’t believe I came to the end as soon as I did. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series. If you like Billionaire book this is the perfect book to read.

Shattered is the opening to Via Mari’s Torzial Affair series that is a spinoff of her Prestian series. I suggest you read that series before you immerse yourself into the Torzial Affair series! I know, you could read it as a standalone but you will get so much more out of it if you have read the Prestian series prior. There is some overlap at the end of the first series timewise but Torzial Affair is a totally different story! Torzian Affair is the story of Jenny and Brian and Shattered is the beginning of it. We have two wounded hearts that have built walls around themselves, for different reasons but still … Via Mari gives us a very intense and steamy romance that touches on some very sensitive and touchy topics – rape, domination and submission … I loved the opening and I cannot wait for the next step in their relationship!

I have never read anything by Via Mari prior to reading Shattered and OMG I have to go read all of her works!
This is about Jenny and Brian. I will say it could be a trigger from some but the author wrote it so beautifully (best way I can describe it) and not in a brutal way. She has literally been through so much that you would think it would just break her but she is the owner of her own consulting company. Brian is an heir to the Carrington Steel company. He feels that women only want him for one thing she he guards his heart. Their two very different worlds are about to come together and take you on one heck of a rollercoaster ride!
This book grabbed me from the very beginning and it still hasn’t let me go. I’m so excited to read more!

Shattered, The Torzial Affair Book One, By Via Mari was an amazing read and I couldn’t put it down. The characters that the author gave us were well defined and two that grabbed at my heart. And when these two are together the attraction is through the roof. Jenny, owner of her own company is finally abut to get the exposure she needs. Under all the business is a woman who still carries emotional scars from an abusive relationship. Brian is the heir to the Carrington Steel and figured long ago, woman only want one thing from him. He guarded his heart and was only interested in one night stands. When these two collide together you really see what they both want and need and what they both need to overcome to open a whole new world for the both of them. This is not the first book I have read by Via Mari and this has become a favorite. I love her writing style, and I loved the well thought characters. I give this book 5 stars and cannot wait to read more in this series!

This book was great! I couldn’t put it down! From the very first page I was sucked in and I couldn’t get enough! The journey that Brian and Jenny took me on was a crazy heartbreaking one but it was fantastic. The love between the two was huge but that isn’t always enough. I cannot wait to read the next one in the series and I look forward to read more by this author. I would recommend to a friend!

Shattered (The Torzial Affair Book 1) by Via Mari is a contemporary romance. Via Mari is a talented author in the story lines that she creates, along with the characters and their portrayals. In Shattered, we dive into Jenny and Brian’s stories which are captivating and riveting to many degrees. Each of them is handling their lives as they feel they should, but something is broken within those dynamics even if they don’t come out and act that way. As their stories unfold we are given into an incredible chemistry that shatters barriers between these two, however, at the same time, is it enough to overcome hurdles in their lives. Remarkably written, magnetic emotional connections and more!!

Shattered by Via Mari is the first book in the Torzial Affair. This is a great new series by a brilliant author. The characters in this book are completely what makes it. Jenny and Brian are hot. They connection is palpable and absolutely jumps off the page. It makes you get behind them and want them to find their way through their difficult journey. The story is exactly what I have come to expect from this author – interesting, engaging and a page turner. It is obviously the start of a fantastic new series and I can’t wait to read more.
