About this listen
"The Bastard's Bargain is deliciously gritty, darkly romantic, drop-dead sexy and thoroughly engrossing." (USA Today, Happy Ever After)
Married to the enemy
When Keira O'Malley was a child, she used to picture her perfect wedding. The flowers. The dress. Her husband. But nothing could have prepared her for saying "I do" to Dmitri Romanov - cold, domineering, and always one step ahead of everyone else in the ever-shifting power plays of New York City. She agreed to his bargain to secure peace for her family, and she may want the bastard more than she'd ever admit, but she'll be damned if she'll make this marriage easy for him.
Dmitri knows better than to underestimate Keira for one second. Molten desire smolders between them, a dangerous addiction neither can resist. But his enemies are already on the move, and he needs every ounce of his legendary focus and control to keep them alive. Keira could just be his secret weapon - if she doesn't bring him to his knees first.

Story
After being a soldier, working as a bodyguard should have been simple: Keep the owner of DC’s ultra-secret club safe, don’t think about his midnight eyes or his devil’s smile, don’t surrender my body to his wicked desires. But I underestimated Mark Trevena and the power of his dark, seductive world. I underestimated the hold he’d have on me, the way I would do anything for him at all. And so when he asks me to escort his soon-to-be bride home, I can only—miserably, broken-heartedly–say yes.

Great conclusion to the series
Katee Robert did not disappoint with the conclusion of the O’Malley series! This novel was total hotness from a woman finding love in an unusual place to a woman finding the leader inside of herself & being a badass!

I LOVE Dimitri and Kira!!
They are unpredictable and fierce!! I think this is my favorite story. I also loved the first story... I love that Charlotte North narrated all of these books! It was in duel narration. You know what everyone is thinking...it made for a seamless presentation!
