Torn

(En Pointe, Book One)

Kazimir Lebedez is a shocking anomaly in Russian politics. He’s an honest man who can’t be bought. Because he has no secrets. Until an extramarital love affair results in an illegitimate son he decides to hide in plain sight.   

Raised by his adopted grandmother, Misha Vergara has dreamed of dancing ballet since he was a toddler. He exhibits the natural grace and drive to succeed in the competitive world of classical dance.    

Natalya Baranova—Talia—is convinced that she and her bestie, Misha, are destined to be the preeminent ballet couple someday. They work diligently on their craft which ultimately leads them to the Mariinsky Theater in St. Petersburg, Russia. 

Henri Minas, a new arrival, has all the qualifications to become a principal dancer, with a face and personality that beguiles and confuses Misha.

Torn between his best friend and Henri, Misha must come to terms with his growing feelings for another boy. In a region of the world where same-sex relationships are forbidden, will Misha follow his heart and choose love with Henri, or stay true to Talia and their shared dream of fame?

To make matter’s worse, all of Kazimir’s carefully crafted lies are about to unravel, as the half brother Misha doesn't know sets his sights on Talia. Now a high-ranking member of the government, can Kaz protect his reputation, and more importantly, his precious love child, without losing it all?

What readers are saying about Yield on Goodreads.

5 Stars

"So a priest and a sadist sit beside each other on a plane... yeah, it isn't the start of a joke. DAYUM!

Just sayin'... this is freakin' HOT!!"

"Not necessarily an easy read, but definitely a great one!"

"I’m enjoying the edgy story lines in Mickie B. Ashling’s Bay Area Professionals series; and the wonderfully taboo plot in this newest edition,Yield, just adds to my pleasure. It’s my favorite so far. "

"What an incredible layered story this was. Stunningly written with memorable scenery, extraordinary circumstances, and a baffling good plot."

"A complex story that brings two tortured men together and into an unhealthy relationship but does the past always dictate the future?"

4 Stars

"This book is really intense, both with the subject matter and the emotions the characters face. Both MCs had a lot of deep dark baggage. The story does deal with things such as rape, abuse, masochism, PTSD, and some major kinks. What adds an extra twist here is that the characters are a priest and one who is retired military and trained in interrogation. There's a lot of struggling with inner demons at the start, which creates some strain. But two damaged characters are finally able to deal with issues enough that they make a great couple, each feeding off the other."

"I really enjoyed this book. The main characters have some serious issues, and it's difficult to take characters like that, turn their lives around and end on a happy note. However, that's exactly what happens! There is real depth and growth for both men during the story. "
