The Gatekeeper

ACTION PACKED

What an exciting conclusion to what has been an entertaining series by Ms. Rose. It can be read as
stand-alone, but I feel it is beneficial to read all of the books in order as it gives an understanding
of the characters and how they relate to each other. I admire Ms. Rose’s skill of bringing life and
depth to her characters. Her knowledge of the mafia world makes this story realistic and believable.
This is Mayla and Kira’s story but it would not be complete without the appearance of many of the
secondary characters.

Kira came from Russia to bury her sister and find her missing nephew. Bringing down the Chicago
Bratva, with the support of the FBI, was a bonus. Kira hated the Bratva and the way they exploited
and ruined lives. She quickly realized that the men from the Kremlin were nothing like the cruel
Russians. Could Kira prove her loyalty and help destroy the Russians? Would she find a place to call
home with Maykl.

Maykl was only thirteen when he was initiated into the Russian Bratva. His past returned to haunt
him when Kira turned up seeking refuge at the Kremlin, where he was the Gatekeeper. Maykl saw
through her games, but he allowed her to stay to uncover her schemes. Her initial attempts at
seducing Maykl was laughable but she got an A for effort. She was a seductive temptress soaked in innocence. A warrior with a hidden agenda. A puzzle that he must solve. Would Mayk’s his past
catch-up and ruin a chance of a future with Kira.

This compelling read was filled with drama, danger, angst, and intense chemistry. One could not
deny the sexual tension between this couple as they burned up the sheets. I loved this book. I loved
this series and I look forward to what Ms. Rose has for us in the future.
