The Lion and the Mouse #3.5
Dirty Desires
Ava belonged to me.
No one else could be with her, and no one else would do for me.
It would take time and gifts, wine and listening.
Whatever else.
But she would understand one day.
She would know.
Only me.
Once I had Ava in my grips, I would never release her.
________________________
MISHA
For a year, Kazimir’s cousin Misha has been obsessed with Ava—the only black ballerina in the Mariinsky theater company. When the opportunity arises to spend time with Ava, Misha seizes it. But over and over distractions appear—a psycho here and there, a devil, stolen nukes, and even a missing corpse.
Over and over, obstacles arise.
Can Misha battle them all as he fights for Ava’s love? Or will he never get his ballerina?
AVA
Ballet is all Ava has ever known. Due to the murder of the company’s prima ballerina, they gave Ava the principal role in the ballet. On opening night, she blew minds and captured everyone’s hearts. If the company keeps her in the position, they will be making history. There has been no ethnic principal in the Mariinsky Theater’s 150 years of operation.
But is Russia ready for their first black prima ballerina? And what dark, threatening things come with the position?
Dirty Desires is part of the Lion and Mouse romance series and is a sequel to the bonus short story Dirty Dancing, which is at the end of Dirty Love. It is 90,000 words long.

Kenya Wright wrote her first novel during her third year at UM Law school. She dropped out a month after the release and never looked back.
Words are power,
and Kenya wants to be the greatest wizard that ever lived.
It's an audacity to inspire
and teach the healing of love through arousal.
It's this crazy idea that love
can not only help a reader escape,
but the story can also teach the person
about being human,
while making them laugh,
cry,
and hot for more sex.

Sooooooo...I have been remiss in writing this review. Life taking a toll, school, the children, blah, blah, blah, blah, enough of the excuses, Lol. This book was amazing!!! As with all books by the wondrous Kenya Wright, I simply cannot get enough of her. This series is a MUST READ!!! This is Mish and Ava's story, a bit more fleshed out. You would have to read the 2nd book Dirty Love, as there is a short story called Dirty Dancing about these two. Mish is in love with our first black Prima Ballerina in Russia, Ava and little does she know the truth about him as she has been sheltered for most of her life. There is so much going on and so many more secrets to reveal. I finally see the link between her and Gwen, our resident chef from the book called Sonata and I am dying to know how all these stories come about. Ms. Wright is a master storyteller! I am not sure how she keeps all the stories together and the interweaving of characters, places, the action and the SEX. OMG! THE SEX IS INCREDIBLE!!!! If only I could have any of these men in this series, who love wholeheartedly and completely when it comes to their women! They are the BRATVA and CORSICAN and do no take NO for answer. They conquer and kill anyone who gets in the way of claiming their true love. In this case it is Mish for Ava and he maybe a bit more tepid than his cousin Kazimir but no less ruthless when it comes to Ava. Secrets unfold, more killing, Gah I love the killing! Lol. Please don't ever stop that! It is the best part. Oh, the humor and sarcasm are dead on! See what I did there? Lol. I freaking love these stories. I breathe them in and re-read them over and over again. Now there is much going on in the Russia and French Mafia world and I, for one, cannot wait to see what happens next!!!! 5 WONDROUS, SUPER TERRIFIC, MISH AND AVA, SCORCHING STARS****

Talk about heat! Misha and Ava sizzle in this side story to the Lion and The Mouse series and wow, Kenya Wright does not disappoint. She is one of the best IR writers out there because she can convey passion between two characters so effortlessly. Misha's intense passion and desire for Ava is really hardcore, but you find yourself really rooting for this couple, despite the danger Misha's involvement with Ava might pose against her and her dancing career. There is no shortage of hot love scenes either! Plus, great dialogue and comic relief between Maxwell and Misha. Those two are hilarious together. Anyway, I am sure you will enjoy this book as much as I did! Highly recommended.

Exciting start to a spin off series!!
I love Misha and Ava story it was a very good twist that answered a lot of questions in the lion and the mouse book. I'm so enjoying the series I can't wait to read more about Misha Ava Rowland Maxwell this is going to be a crazy roller coaster. Can't wait for the next Misha and Ava book!!!

This was fine. Funny at times (Maxwell, I love you) and a doomed romance to top it off. But there is a reason why I prefer both partners in the relationship to have some connections or knowledge of the mafia before they start getting together. It's just weird to watch Ava struggle to decide what to do when she doesn't even know what she agreeing to. She has no concept of what is going on or how it will actually affect her.
It's hilarious how Misha thinks he's "normal" when so many of his actions just scream mob boss. His connection to Kazimir gives him a skewed perspective.
I am a little disappointed how... incompetent he is.

Misha and Ava are🔥🔥🔥
Misha and Available definitely give Kaz and Emily a run for their money in the sexy department. To me this book was funnier than expected with Misha grieving the death of his father and his overwhelming lust for Ava made for a major tragedy of errors. It definitely fills in the some gaps from the last book and sets up an exciting story in the next book of the series. Greatly anticipating the next story! !

Love, laughter and lunacy
When I first read about Ava and Misha I saw them as a nice side story. And considered not to be strong part of the storyline. Wrong. Ms. Wright weaves a fantastic tale of murder mayhem and love with a side of comedy.

You are doing an amazing job
This series has blossomed it to something so fascinating and terrific. I have enjoyed everyone this far and this story of Mischa and Ava have added to my addiction. The love passion dedication and obsession Mischa has for Ava is romantic I wish I had someone in my life who would care and cherish me in that way. Even though he is part of the Bravta I am happy she did not let that keep her away from true love sometime love steps outside of the guidelines we think of when we are looking for a partners and that is just what happens when Ava meets Mischa love will always win

the family bond
Even though this is a more in-depth story of Misha and Ava. The family connection and bonds are so important. The development of Misha and Max my new favorite duo. Godfather Rolan and his love for Misha, Naveen and his crazy but direct self gives it straight to Misha. And then Ms Jones, how she connected with him in such a beautiful way.

Cliffhanger?
This was great but the ending sucked...it concluded like a cliffhanger and I hate those. Hopefully, there is a book 2.

Perfect!
Miss Kenya! You are a beast with the pen! These strong men of the Bratva, being reduced to kittens, by strong black women is everything! I love how this story answered tons of questions from the last book, but produced many more. Cannot wait for December 2nd, so I can find out what is what. Great work! 👍👍👍

Parallel Events
This was really good. Mischa was bombarded with one crisis after another. I'm really loving this Lion and Mouse world of stories. Ava is very naive, but she loves Mischa.

So Good
I'm so happy Kenya Wright expanded the preview she gave us of these two into a book. I really liked Misha from the other books. With Dirty Desires, KW ties Kaz and The Butcher's dilemma in very nicely. I love how this is all intertwined and how we get each point of view. You can tell she really planned this out. This is so fire!
