Daniela Carvalho was given one warning before she was allowed entry to the Vartanovs family home ⎯ stay away from Valentin. Her childhood crush grew into something more until the brutal ways of her chosen family left her alone.

Absence may make the heart grow fonder, the truth sets it ablaze.

    Same story, different line and new perspective. I am in love with all of the characters and so happy to be able to go for a wild ride following Val and Dani. The end is rushed a bit, so happy for an Epilogue though. So much spice, drama and gore wrapped in a cute love story. Happy ending ❤️

    Am I crying at 12am because of that ending? You sure bet I am!! Throughout this book I wanted to cry, scream, yell, and so much more. I didn't think I needed this book, but after reading it. I needed it.

    This one is about Dani and Valentin story and honestly I didn't know so much about them and now I'm glad I do! Because it makes so much more sense now. After reading the first two books, there was a lot of stuff that you don't get to fully see. But this book opens it up so much more. I feel in love with them like I did with Inessa and Vlad story. I did cry in the middle of the book with the scene of Valentin going to try to get Dani. I couldn't handle it. I didn't want that heartbreak! The only thing is Dani, I love her, but the reason for her saying no made me want to shake her!! Like girl OPEN YOUR EYES!!! You will know what I mean lol.

    You want dark romance with Mafia style that will make you want to scream but love how toxic their relationship is? Then read the first two books, then read this one. I honestly can't wait for book 4 now. I feel like I need all their backstories!

    I have read this whole series and I'm in love with all the characters.

    Vulnerate is Valentin and Daniela's story and it's a beautiful, sexy, happy, sad rollercoaster of a ride and I devoured it.

    I loved the plot, the spice and the mafia lifestyle.

    This book was almost a 5 star read for me but I did feel that some aspects of the story that involved a conflict never got resolved and kind of just was skipped over.

    However this book was still amazing to me and I can't wait to read book 4!!!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    What can I say? AX Cole hit it out of the park yet again! Vlad will always be my favorite Vartanov but Valentin is not a bad second choice. His book was everything I hoped for and more. His love and devotion for not only his son Viktor but his Dani was top notch. He had some trauma to overcome but nothing like Vlad. No matter how many mistakes he made he always had his brothers to back him up. There were parts of this book that made me laugh so hard I am pretty sure my husband thought I lost my mind. There were parts that made me sad and cry. The rollercoaster of emotions this book took me on was what made this book so amazing. The depth of the story and the characters was fantastic. AX really knows how to write a Mafia romance. She keeps you engaged in the story the entire time. I cannot wait for more books. I even want a book for Viktor. I want to see him get his revenge. I also loved how she kept up with the time line and we got to see situations with more detail and clarity. It was refreshing. If you want a fantastic mafia romance look no further. This book is the entire package.

    I really wanted to love this book but I didn't. It just wasn't like first two. I know that this is a different story I just couldn't get into it.I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

    This is the 3rd story in the East Coast Bratva Series where we get Valentin and Dani’s turbulent journey from kids to adults. Once Valentin meets his younger brother’s best friend, Dani he knows she’ll be his. Dani is unaware of his true feelings and hides her crush on Valentin. Dani is an artist is one to blend in never wanting attention is unaware the entire Vartanov family supports her. Valentin is a mean alpha bully who becomes possessive of Dani and protects Dani at all cost not caring how others see him. Dani grew up with parents never seeing her and a sister that treats Dani horribly to the point changing her life and her opinions of those who truly care for her with lies and deceit. When Vlad discovers Valentin fathered a child with the devil he gets custody of him and as a family they raise him. Over the years Valentin has always wondered about Dani and her unpleasant reactions to his situation shared by her sister so when Dani reappears all bets are off and he takes his anger and frustration out on her. There are hateful misunderstandings and feelings all over the place and boy is it beautiful to see how they find common ground. Inessa, Vlad’s wife is a protector and helps their crazy underworld they live in seem normal. There are dark secrets they are revealed throughout their lives, some causing harm and danger and when the Vartanov Family does what they do best they handle each situation how they see necessary.

    and so much more!!! If you haven’t read any of her books I suggest you start now!!

    Vulnerate follows Dani and Val. Dani is Tali’s best friend! But one day at a young age Val sees her and instantly falls in love. He doesn’t care if Tali is with her or not. He wants her and he’s going to do anything to have her.

    When Val finds Dani again will he forgive her? Do they fall in love or does Carly get in the way of their love? Read to find out!!!

    I really enjoyed reading this book. Dani is an amazing FMC who’s crazy possessive and extremely jealous. Valentin is complete Alpha and also extremely possessive. Dani is his girl and he’d humiliate anyone who disrespects her.
    Honestly this book has the best spice and I love the character development. Highly recommend. This series is amazing and flows together so well!

    The Vartanovs family have stole my heart
    After reading the first two books in the East Coast Bratva Series I was hooked. Now I have to wait for book Four to get my next Vartanovs fix.

    They are a force to be reckoned with

    They’re filthy as sin with mouths that say the most delicious things. That would absolutely break you 🌶️

    The first Two books focus on Vlad and Inessa’s story and you see how each character in the family have their own ways. Tali, Val, Viktor and Dani with others mentioned in these stories.

    Vulnerate was amazing and you see how Val grows into being a dad when being a dad was not what he was expecting at a young age, the love and protectiveness he has for his son Viktor is nice to see, how the whole Vartanov family come together and protect this special boy who they all so clearly love and will do anything for.

    There a family and no one stands alone.

    Val and Tali are hilarious together their banter had me bad laughing,

    Tali is the human fridge… literally 😂

    Val with such a dirty dirty mouth

    Then Dani, sweet Dani who is in love with her best friend’s brother and has been since she was a kid
    She’s part of the family and is protected the same way as if she was blood
    Dani had me feeling all the feelings for her, she had such a rubbish relationship with her family and The Vartanovs became the family she should have had.
    I love how you see what Viktor was like from being a baby to growing up to a young man. You find out who his Mother is and omg what a horrible human

    Ax Cole knows how to keep you hooked and wanting more and like the first two books there’s twists and turns and a rollercoaster of a ride but it’s a ride you want to be on. I absolutely loved all three of these books. I love the relationships these characters have I’m soooo Looking forward to book four
