Bulletproof Heart by WonderInTheWild95

She ran from the life she was born into. Now, it's come to collect. For eight years, Imani Blackwood built a life far away from the crime empire she left behind. In Paris, she's not a Blackwood-she's Imani Laurent, a respected art curator, mingling with high society and securing priceless masterpieces for the world's elite. Her past is buried, locked away with the girl she used to be. Until Nikolai Petrov walks back into her world. Cold, calculating, and dangerously untouchable, he was the one risk she allowed herself. The man who got too close, who made her feel something real-until she discovered the truth. Nikolai isn't just a wealthy investor. He's the heir to one of Russia's most ruthless Bratva families. And he's known exactly who she was from the moment they met. Now, with her father demanding her return to Atlanta and Nikolai already waiting for her there, Imani is thrown back into a world of power struggles and dangerous alliances. Malcolm Blackwood expects her to broker a deal between the Blackwoods and the Bratva-but Nikolai has his own plans. She swore she'd never let herself love a man like him. She swore she'd never be owned by anyone. But some wars aren't fought with bullets-they're won with the heart. And Nikolai has never lost a battle.
