Trust: A Mafia Doms Novel by Adara Wolf and R. Phoenix
Every day, I need to remind myself that I’m lucky. I’m lucky I have a home. I’m lucky I’m healthy. I’m lucky I have a partner.
But it’s hard to remember that I’m lucky when my lover tells me I need to get close to Ilya Zima, notorious Russian mafia boss. If I do this, my partner’s career is set.
Get close, find out Ilya’s secrets, and my life will be happy again. There will be no more yelling, no more hitting. The BDSM will make me feel good again, not bad.
Only Ilya isn’t rough or terrifying like I imagined. He’s gentle, and sweet, and he likes my music. He wants to pet me and make me feel good. He understands me.
The more time I spend with him, the more I forget who he’s supposed to be.
The more I fall for him.
And the more I desperately want him to save me.
Trust is a spicy, m/m age gap BDSM romance with a Bratva leader and a down-on-his-luck musician trapped in a cycle of abuse. Although set in the Mafia Doms universe, it is a complete standalone that can be enjoyed without having read any other books. Trust contains scenes of domestic violence.

One secret Santa. Two lonely hearts. And a Christmas spent tearing down walls to let love in.
Jason Harker: I’ll admit it—I can be a little nosy. When you live alone in a town as small and close-knit as Belleville, other people’s stories have a way of filling the quiet. So when I find newcomer, Joe Milton, in the alley behind my store, cradling a bird like it might break his heart to let go, I make it my mission to befriend the enigmatic man. Only problem? Now the whole town thinks I’ve got a thing for Joe. Me? With a crush? On a man? No. That’s… definitely not happening. Probably. Maybe. But the more I try to prove to everyone that Joe and I are just friends, the more this surly, adorable man starts feeling like the best Christmas present I never asked for.
Joe Milton: Moving to a new town to start an apple farm? Ambitious. Trying to renovate a crumbling house by myself before my family arrives for Christmas? Possibly delusional. And just when I’m about to lose all hope and sanity, a secret Santa steps in to save me. But it’s his so-called elf helper who really catches me off guard. Jason Harker is kind, charming, and makes my heart race faster than my impending renovation deadline. This new friendship and the swirl of confusing feelings make me wonder if this Christmas might mend more than just this old house.
