Ruthless King: A Dark Forbidden Mafia Romance (Boston Mafia Dons) Kindle Edition

by Bianca Cole (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,959 ratings

I ignored Aida's warnings, and now I’m ensnared in a ruthless man’s trap.

When I went to give Fabio Alteri a piece of my mind,

I never expected the visit to take a forbidden turn.

Aida told me not to go but in a drunken fury I visited the dangerous don.

Angry that this man would tear my friend from me the way he did—his own daughter.

Then, our eyes met and it felt like he set my soul on fire.

I shouldn’t want the ruthless Sicilian mafia don.

He’s dangerous.

He’s forbidden.

He’s got no soul.

And yet, I find myself inexplicably drawn to him.

He’s broken, and I’ve always had a tendency to try to fix people.

The question is will I be able to fix him, or will he break me instead?

Ruthless King is the third book in the Boston Mafia Dons Series by Bianca Cole. This book has no cliffhangers and a happily ever after ending. However, this story has dark themes, hot scenes, violence, content some readers may find upsetting, and bad language. It features an over the top, twisted and possessive Italian crime boss.

*Originally published as Ruthless Daddy.

    It was too spicy. I love a good anti hero. Fabio fits the bill here and comes strong with his intensity. Gia was the perfect fit for him and I loved the age gap difference too. As long as he’s still attractive and healthy for his age, there nothing wrong with 21 and 49 as a trope in the book. He gave her a run for her money honey. Definitely worth the read.

    I was a bit worried it i could make it thru this one. Men getting with a woman they have known since they were children is really not my thing. But it was barely any interaction between the MC's. Fabio is a very alpha male who is demanding and relentless in his pursuit of what be wants. Gia is young, naive, but falls fast despite her reservations about the relationship. A lot of spice but some of the ways are not for everyone. Consensual non-consent, forced proximity among them. Not for the light hearted.

    I’m not fond of age-gap and their age difference was a bit much.
    I enjoyed the book despite that element.
    The internal monologues were repetitive at times.
    Overall, it was a good read. The storyline was exciting.

    Reviewed in India on November 8, 2022

    3rd book in the Boston Mafia series is the love story of Sicilian Mafia Boss Fabio Alteri & his daughter’s b/f Gia. It is an unlikely coupling and makes you feel gross reading it. It's here we find the reason why Fabio is cold & heartless. It is one of my least favorite books in the series. Personally, none of the main protagonists are to my liking. Anyways, I did read – walk, skip & jump through the story. The other book in the series is –

    1. Cruel Daddy [Milo Mazzeo & Aida Alteri]
    2. Savage Daddy [Malachy McCarthy & Scarlet]
    4. Vicious Daddy [Nial Fitzpatrick & Alicia McCarthy]
    5. Wicked Daddy [Mikhail Gurin & Sienna Guiusa]

    Go ahead download & read the book. If you don't like it u can always .....

    Ruthless King, is Fabio and Gia's story. It was a roller-coaster ride from page 1, with twist and turns, drama, action, violence, friendship, scorcing hot attraction, kink and more kink, age gab, angst oh and not to forget spicy crazy sexy time.
