    I couldn’t wait to read about the Ryan brothers but I wasn’t expecting how this story would go at first. I should have had an idea from one of the other books when Alex and Jax needed their help thru mentioned something about their relationship but it wasn’t a big enough hint to clue me in as to what would happen. I don’t how I would choose I probably wouldn’t choose either if they looked like they were described. We can only imagine in these hot books we keep on reading. On the next to see what happens.

    Wow! This is Book 1 in the New York Ruthless series and it does an amazing job of laying the ground work for the series!

    We meet the 5 main Characters in the book when the Ryan's, The heads of the Irish Mafia, are settling a score that Jessie finds herself in the middle of through no fault of her own! In her moment of desperation she manages to sweet talk her way out of a very tricky situation and finds herself instead living with 4 of the hottest guys on the planet. Through this first book we are introduced to each of the main characters through their interactions with each other and their inner thoughts as they navigate a new situation that has them all feeling turned around and upside down. The Ryan brothers all fall for Jessie at different speeds and through different interactions while dealing with business as usual and trying to discover who the mystery girl really is.

    When the truth comes to light the oldest Ryan realizes just how in love his younger brothers are based on their reactions to her and her past. Just when the final Ryan succumbs to his own feelings Jessie falls victim to her past and the book ends on a devastating cliffhanger!

    This author does an amazing job of layering the plot as you read. Details are introduced over the course of the book that build on each other. Nothing is choppy or hard to follow but nothing is totally revealed either. This is expected in a multi book series of course. Each new discovery is well done and just adds to the enjoyment and the need to continue reading to learn more and more.

    The editing and grammar are very good. There are a few very minor mistakes but nothing that jumps out or at all distracts from the flow of the plot or the ease of reading the book.

    This book is also available on audio. Hollie Jackson does an amazing job voicing Jessie. She manages to be sassy and sweet and does a great job revealing Jessie's emotions without making her feel like a victim even when she seems to have every right to act like one! Aaron Shedlock is outstanding! The fact that he voices 4 brothers and has created a unique voice for each one that not only fits the personality the author describes but is identifiable before its even announced at the beginnings of the chapters is truly a listening experience!

    I'm sorry, I hate to give bad reviews but that ending sucked!

    Pros: Strong and sassy female lead, lots and lots of decent smexy times 🔥🔥, development of at least some of the relationships.

    Cons:
    Oh so many of them, but lets start off with the fact that all of these characters acted way too dumb to be mob bosses! As well as too dumb for there supposed background. She's supposed to be the "best hacker" but the only time she shows any of that intelligence is with a computer.

    Where as I love lots of smexy times in my books I like it with lots of overall plot as while and a lot of it felt unnecessary and/or disjointed with an abruptly sex scene thrown in.

    Liam and Mikey felt more like side characters you don't really get a whole lot of their backstory other them a few details. Also, especially more towards the end, she spends so much time with Shane on page and the others off page that it feels like a romance just between the two of them.

    Last but not least, the end..... I don't even know what to write to be honest. I don't want to give any spoilers, someone else may enjoy this , so ill put it this way. Its totally a forced cliffhanger, and not a good one. Prepare to be disappointed with stupid choices and men who's instant reaction to a situation is anger. You can't say you trust each other and then within one page betray them, its just not believable!

    Don't know if ill finish the series or not, have to think about it later, right now I'm just too disappointed.

    Edit: finally decided to continue to the next book, just wanted to know how she would dig them out of the hole she made. Ended up not finishing at like 60%. To me it just got more forced, nothing flowed well and the relationship to me just got for one sided with Shane still being the main focus and the rest feeling like secondary characters. I just couldn't make myself continue.
    It wasn't horrible, I'm sure there's plenty who will enjoy this series, just not my cup of tea.

    This book is incredible exciting and Spicy AF. Never been into Mafia or dark romance but it hits the spot (in all the senses you can use that expression haha).

    Typical Alpha male secretly loves the feisty starring character, and probably the best inverse harem i have read. It is super well written giving depth on the characters, threading the story with good balance between spice and action.

    I'm writing this review after reading 4 of the books of the saga. I usually don't read the series after book one because the story is not engaging enough, but this one breaks the mold big time, to the level of finishing in a big cliffhanger.

    Be careful on the TW: sexual abuse, heavy violence, language and family trauma.

    Je ne suis pas trop reverse harem donc au départ pas super motivée mais bon, les critiques étant très bonnes je me suis dis...allez ! !!
    Bon sang quelle lecture !!!!!, les personnages sont complexes ,l'intrigue très bien menée et les scènes 🌋🍆sont incroyables.
    Ce livre peut choquer et déranger si vous aimez les histoire à l'eau de rose, mais si vous êtes large d'esprit, aventureuse et si vous aimez les héros dominants et possessifs, je vous recommande ce livre . Ceci est une oeuvre de fiction ce qui en fait le charme, je pense qu'aimer la dark romance ne fait que donner vie à nos fantasmes sans avoir à les vivre nous même ce qui est parfait parfois.....
    Je laisse cette évaluation et file lire le tome suivant.
