⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 out of 5

Boris Ivanov is a man with secrets and darkness within. The only light in his life is his best friends’ little sister, but she’s off limits, until she’s not. He’s a Russian killer and a fighter.

Nora O’Malley comes from a long line of Irish mafia and is the little sister of Boris Ivano’s best friend Killian O’Malley. She’s been in love with Boris since she was a young girl, and those feelings just keep growing stronger.

I love the characters that Maggie Cole writes. They are always strong, sexy, lethal, protective and fun to read. The women are strong and sassy, but the men let them do as they wish and stand beside them and have their backs all the time. The Mafia Wars series is increasingly becoming one of my favorite series with wonderful characters. In Broken Fighter the stakes have gotten higher for the Ivanov brothers, but with the O’Malley’s in their corner they might be able to get out from under the Zamir’s thumb. The Ivanov’s may not be a mafia family, but they are ruthless and lethal just the same. I give this book a 5-star review and cannot wait to read Cruel Enforcer and the rest of the Mafia Wars Series books. I love the women as much as I love the men in this series. They are just as protective of their men and family as the men are of them.
