Faberge eggs, Russia, the Romanovs. This book sounds awesome. That cover is amazing. The synopsis references Libba Bray. The heroine's name is Natalya (which is close enough). I cannot wait to get my hands on this.

Fantastic pick! I haven't read any books that take place in Russia or deal with the Romanovs, so this is a must-read!
