Resumen del Editor

I'll walk through hell to be with him, even if the path is paved in blood.

Emily

Roman Melnikov is a deadly man in an expensive suit. I know what lies beneath the façade—the scars and tattoos that hint at the man he really is.

He came here to find his sister, and his search led him to my dad and his friends. We both want to take them down, and the only way to do that is together.

I had no idea how dangerous it would be, or that by the end of it, we'd all be covered in blood.

Loving Roman is dangerous, but I can't let him go. His path is leading him straight to hell, and it looks like I'm coming along for the ride.

Roman

The plan was simple: bring our Bratva to America, find the scum who took my sister, and kill them all.

Then I met Emily, the daughter of the enemy, and I can't let her go. She's everything I'm not—sweet, innocent, good. Far too good for someone like me, but I can't stay away, and now she's a part of this.

Change of plans: The only way to keep her safe is to keep her by my side… or on her knees. To everyone else, she's my pet, the woman who belongs to me. To me, she's everything—the woman who owns every part of me.

I will do anything to keep her safe, and together we're going to paint this city red.

Paved in Blood is a steamy dark Bratva romance and the first book in the Melnikov Bratva five-book series. Each book will feature a different brother and his complete love story, but to enjoy the overarching story, listen in order. For mature listeners.

I love Sonja

Ive not read/listened to a book by this author that I haven’t absolutely adored. The male characters she writes have just enough dark and tenderness and the women always have an admirable strength, they don’t make careless choices (a common thing in mafia romances I’ve noticed) and all the romantically involved characters fit each other so well.

This follows Emily and Roman, an unlikely but good team. It introduces more of Roman and his brothers (I feel like he was mentioned or briefly in in book 2 of the first series) he and his brothers are on a mission to find their sister and she’s on a mission to find out more about her dad’s gross dealings. He becomes very protective of her, they’re both willing to do pretty
Much anything for each other. And they do. I love that this has darkness but sweetness too. I can’t really do the overly dark anymore, it’s hard to root for a hero or anti hero that’s not really redeemable. But these MC’s aren’t hard to love.

The performance is as per usual top notch. The author is enough to make me buy the book; but anything Wes and Kai narrate I buy lol. They have real chemistry (as do the other narrators for the first series imo) and the book has a real story with some smut as an addition vs smut with the addition of a story. And I like that lol

Great story line.

Steamy read, but nice that the sex didn’t over shadow the story line. I wasn’t a fan of when the male voice did the girl part- too whiny sounding for me. Looking forward to the other books in the series.

Loved it!

This book had all the elements that make a great audio book! These brothers-by-choice quickly burrowed themselves into my heart. Their banter was witty, funny and just heartwarming. Emily is the kind of FMC I like-strong, independent and engaging. Her and Roman’s connection was intense and beautiful. Sonja Grey hit this one out of the park in my opinion! Couldn’t hit pause. Narration was spot on as well. It’s going in my “favorites” for sure.

Paved In blood

I really enjoy listening to this story big time. The characters did a amazing job and everything. I can't wait for the rest of the books. I have read all of the books so I am waiting to listen to the rest. I did listen and read the book at the same time. I love it big time!!!!

Another hit series

If you like Dark Mafia Romance, no one does it better than Sonja Grey. While each book in this five part series does center on one brother and is in and of itself complete, doesn't end on a cliffhanger, there is an overarching plot that will not be resolved until book five. For that reason it is important to read (or Listen) to these books in order, which is no hardship because they are all great! Enjoy!

Good listening! Good performances and good writing too.

Good performances and good writing too. Many others can learn from this author. I hate sappy and weak ass characters.

Great Listen/Read

The first book in the Melnikov Bratva series and the second series that I have read by Sonja Grey and OMG I loved it. Roman and Emily were wonderful. Emily was just sassy enough and Roman was so caring and protective but he would also kill if necessary.

Persistence

I loved this book. The narration was so well done! I loved the twists and turns! I highly recommend this book!

Excellent Plot

Absolutely loved the H & h. The secondary characters were amazing and each enhanced the story. My only tiny complaint is I wish it was read by the authors previous voice actors. But still an absolute must listen. Can’t wait for the next one!!!

Amazing!!

Paved in Blood by Sonja Grey is a dark Bratva (Russian Mafia) romance. This is the first book in the Melnikov Bratva series. I read this entire series on my kindle and I absolutely loved them. The audiobook of Paved in Blood was just released today (6/25) and I had to drop everything to listen to it. This audiobook was very well done and the narrators did a great job with these characters. Roman’s Russian accent was everything! Listening to this book was just as amazing as when I first read it. I am always rereading this book and now I can listen to it over and over again!

Roman and Emily are precious! Emily is such a sweetheart and I love how she never let her horrible parents make her bitter. Roman was just sexy and morally grey. He is the perfect Bratva man. The touch her and die vibes are immaculate in this book! I also love the found family element. Roman has four chosen brothers who are so close and the way they welcome Emily into their family is just so heartwarming. The bothers were all badass and funny in their own ways. Roman is so protective, loyal, and sweet on Emily. This man made me swoon so many times! The plot was also super entertaining and I could not get enough. If you love dark mafia/bratva romances then you have to give this book a read! Sonja Grey is a fantastic dark romance author and one of my auto buy authors! Her books are always five star reads and I am constantly rereading them when I get the chance!
