Chicago Bratva Book 6: The Bookie - Signed Paperback

Really liked Chelle and NikolaiOverall, all books have been great except Natasha and Diam. I've loved the men are alpha holes but have a sweet, soft side with the women. I like strong, intelligent women, which Chelle definitely was.

Another hit for Renee Rose! This story is filled with intrigue, suspense and many times I worried about the safety of these characters. Definitely a five star read!

Sucked in from the first book! The brothers were who I was looking forward to reading most and the books were awesome! I love how she has been writing this series, probably my favorite of her work!!!

I love her characters!!! All of the characters’ stories are intertwined and each get their own book in the series.

Ms Rose's mafia tales never disappoint, guaranteed perfect blend of heart pounding mafia action and her trademark scorching steam. The Bookie is another entertaining read!#MSBB

I enjoyed this story of Nikolai and Chelle. I really liked Nikolai. The author did a good job of showing how he feels on the edge of his group of bratva brothers, especially now that his twin brother Dima has left to live with his girlfriend. Nikolai is a really good guy whose position in the bratva forces him to do some unsavory things. Knowing this, he realizes that someone like Chelle wouldn't want a permanent relationship with him. Of course, as she gets to know him better, her fears about his profession and association with the bratva dwindle as her love for him grows. And of course there's a very satisfying HEA.

Nikolai is the bratva's poker game leader. He's their bookie. It's Zanes turn in the hot seat. He owes a lot of money from gambling losses. He gives them his car but it's not enough. Zane's sister, Chelle wants to help so she offers her car. But Nikolai has something else in mind. It's that time, read the book for another interesting story

The picture in your mind is easy, blissful and worry free, but actually there are many different paths to happiness !! There is pain, danger and sometimes death before you reach the promised land !!

Man, I love these books so much! I lose sleep over Rene Rose’s book series. These are a must-read! The Bratva men are so hot!!!

I really enjoyed this book. Great addition to the series. Besides two more books to be released, I wonder what else Renee has planned for Chicago. Definitely recommend the series, and read it in order.

The titles is not referring to the fine specimen on the cover, but the title it’s self and Nikolai’s job in the Bratva. Chelle and Nikolai have an attraction for each other after they’re first meeting because of her brothers gambling problem and debt. If only Chelle can get past her prejudices against Nikolai’s life in the Bratva and resentment for the part he plays in her brothers gambling problem. When Chelle’s brother miss understands her and Nikolai’s relationship and thinks the worst he gets into even more trouble and needs help from the Bratva. This is a love story full of excitement, passion and has some violence but over I think you will love the story and all the other books in the Chicago Bratva series.

What do you do when your twin and his girl move? Or when all the guys in your life seem to be finding their other halves? You met yours at a card game. Being as you work with people who you can't talk about or about the work then you do your best. It was an eye opening story about two people who were opposites and yet they fit perfectly. The twist and turns in this story gave me a lot to think about and gave me a little insight into how a man can feel about the changes he sees around him and the true meaning of family. How far one is willing to go for that family. This love story was one for my heart and my mind. I want to read the next one in this family. Thanks for the adventure may the next one be as good if not better.

Another great story in the continuing series by Renee Rose, who is one of my favorites. Nikolai and Chelle go thru some serious crap to get the HEA they deserved, thanks to Chelle's brother Zane, who's drug and gambling addiction causes chaos.I have always given these books a 5 star rating but I can't with this this one and this is why. My issue comes from the beginning of the story involving a ring and the reasons why Chelle doesn't want to leave it behind when she can't get the safe to open. There are several references to "the cleaning people" being a reason why she didn't feel safe leaving the ring in her office over the weekend. I was a bit insulted, being a "cleaning person" myself. The suggestion that it would come up missing was offensive.

I love Renee Rose deft touch with this series. It is NOT dark and the characters are all likeable. The story is easy to follow, with an ongoing plot sifting through all the books. Excellent formatting and editing. The book is just compulsively readable.

This is a well written series and each book in the series can be read as a standalone but reading in order does enhance the experience.Nikolai runs the Bratva's gambling operations and crosses paths with Chelle when her brother owes them a lot of money and he takes a piece of jewelry that belongs to Chelle's employer to pay for his debt. Nikolai give her back the jewelry, and their relationship takes off from that point. The books are light on the mafia as over time, the group has moved more and more to legal avenues to make money and rely less on the illegal revenue streams, and they stay out of drugs and other more objectionable areas.

Love this seriesBravta my new loveNikolai and Chelles intense emotional heartstopping broken arrangement love storyReady for more

I enjoyed this "Chicago Bratva" story. It is a little dark but not to bad. I like the characters and the plot was interesting and intriguing. Love how it develops and especially ends. This story is about Chelle and Nikolai. It does have some triggers for some. The story is how her brother is deep in debt to Nikolai and the Bratva. Nikolai takes debt very serious; he even has a code her goes by. Chelle, feels responsible for her brother and pleads with Nikolai and offers herself up. Nikoli has never taken such a proposal serious until now. The attraction and pull between them is strong. Such a good read. *I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book.*

Nikolai is part of the mafia and is willing to accept a deal with Chelle. He will have her for 30 days in exchange for her brother going free. Chelle tries her best not to fall for Nikolai. She's charmed by him. Nikolai intends to keep Chelle for much longer than the arrangement allows, he wants her for all time. A good story and addition to the series.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Super hot with unexpected twists!! The entire series is incredible and I can't wait for the next one!!! Renee Rose is the master of her craft! I hope that the series never ends

Absolutely fantastic!!! Nikolai and Chelle are amazing together. I loved their relationship and how they were both open with each other but so careful about being vulnerable. This series does not disappoint!

I've enjoyed this whole series so far, and this book was a relaxing read.***SPOILER AHEAD***I'd have thought, with the blurb as it was, that the bargain to trade herself for her brother would have been a bit more intense, but this was more a game than anything else. Our Bookie has basically written off her brother's debt from the moment he made the deal, because there was no way he'd have enforced her end of the bargain.This satisfies the need for consent (at least he isn't a douche), and brings this story out of the realm of dark romance into playful roleplay.All of that said, I still found the book enjoyable, and can't wait for the rest of the series.I volunteered to review an ARC.

The author does a spectacular job with this book and the series as a whole. Only someone well versed in the craft could make the Bratva seem sweet and someone you would swoon over. This story was about Nikolai and Chelle. Their story was amazing and I can’t wait for the next.

Nikolai and Chelle. What starts out as an attempt to clear her brothers debt becomes something she never planned. Nikolai is fabulous, danger mixed with good heart and Chelle is fiercely protective and someone Nikolai does not need but someone he wants desperately.I received this book as an arc and am voluntarily submitting my review.

I really enjoyed this book. Chelle did get on my nerves when she freaked out on Nikolai but I do understand the reason for her hesitation. After reading all the previous books in this series I’m like Story and I feel loyal to the characters and want them all to be loved. Can’t wait for book 7……

I absolutely loved this story, the whole time reading it, I could not put it down as usual, but this one pulled at my heart strings, I just wanted Chelle to love him...

I loved the story! A roller coaster of emotions that hooked me from the 1st chapter. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a story line full of action and some Hot, Hot scenes.

Sometimes arrangements can become the best thing to happen to a couple. The story of these two lovers shows just that. You will love the way that the two Fall in love.Renee Rose ha provided an excellent story of murder and mayhem. One that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat.

Nikolai is a bookie who normally gives no second chances but the potential he sees in Zane makes him give Zane one more chance to make good on his debt especially after he sees the beautiful Chelle.Chelle is conflicted on what needs to be done with her brother but she is willing to risk it all to keep her brother safe.Can Chelle save her brother and keep her heart safe? Is Chelle enough to make Nikolai break all the rules? ... Read and find out!This book is really good, I loved every second and literally could not read it fast enough. The chemistry between Chelle and Nikolai is undeniable and I simply could not look away. I can not wait to see what happens next in this series.
