Title: The Definition of an Emotional Rollercoaster
Review: “I picked this up looking for a gay spy romance and got so much more. Russian Roulette delivers on that promise with brilliant, tense scenes of tradecraft and danger, but it grounds it all in deep emotional reality. The relationship between the two leads is passionate, intellectual, and fiercely protective. You believe in their love completely, which makes every threat against it feel visceral. The supporting characters, especially Alexei’s sister Nastya, are wonderfully drawn. The story masterfully balances moments of opulent luxury with raw survival, and the final section set in the Caucasus mountains is some of the most poignant writing I’ve encountered in gay literature. This book made me cry, it made me hold my breath, and it made me think. It’s a top LGBTQ+ book for a reason: it treats its gay characters with depth and seriousness, placing their love at the center of a world-altering narrative. Simply outstanding.”

Title: Intelligent, Heart-Pounding, and Unforgettable
Review: “As a reader who craves LGBTQ+ fiction with substance and sophisticated plotting, this book was a revelation. The setting is a character in itself—the author renders the chilling atmosphere of modern Moscow with such precision. Alexei and Kolya are complex, flawed, and utterly captivating. Their romance is a haven they build amidst the chaos, making the external threats from Zharkov’s regime all the more terrifying. This isn’t a simple escapist romance; it’s a gay psychological thriller that explores power, morality, and redemption. The choices these men face are impossible, and the narrative never takes the easy way out. The prose is sharp, evocative, and often hauntingly beautiful. The ending, while tragic, felt honest and strangely hopeful in its own way. It’s a powerful gay love story that respects its readers’ intelligence. Highly recommended for book clubs—there is so much to discuss!”

Title: A Masterpiece of Tragic Romance and Political Intrigue
Review: “I have just finished this novel and I am emotionally wrecked in the best possible way. Russian Roulette with Blood, Champagne, and Caviar is so much more than a gay romance—it’s a profound, shattering, and beautifully written epic. The connection between Alexei and Kolya is electric from the first page, a meeting of minds and hearts that feels desperately real. The author doesn’t just tell us they’re in love; we feel every stolen glance, every terrified touch, every moment of devastating sacrifice. The political thriller aspect is flawlessly executed, feeling frighteningly plausible. The tension had me reading late into the night. But it’s the human heart at the center of this storm that will stay with me forever. This is a love story about the cost of integrity in a corrupt world, and the final chapters are a lesson in heartbreaking grace. It’s the best MM romance book I’ve read this year, and one of the most memorable pieces of queer fiction period. An absolute must-read.”
