Little Bird

Claudia first knew Dmitry Petrov as the man who brokered her sister's marriage to his brother: a Russian mafia leader roughly fifteen years her senior who saw her only as his sister-in-law's little sister. When he is jailed, she keeps writing to him for years, hoping he will one day see her as a woman.

When her family moves to arrange a marriage for her, Claudia refuses to be anyone's pawn. Dmitry, released and back at the head of the Russian mob, claims her for himself.

Little Bird is a dark, explicit mafia romance by Jenika Snow, set in her Underworld Kings world and read as a standalone, with an age gap and an arranged-marriage plot at its centre.
