People call me Ruthless for a reason.
Whether Iβm in the court room or in the bedroom, my reputation is well-earned. Iβm either working hard, working out, or working my way into some woman's panties. But none of them share my particular kink, and I walk away feeling unsatisfied.
Until I met her.
Sheβs a friend of a friend, which makes her off-limits in my book. But then temptation had me by the balls and I had her up against a wall. She literally fucked my world off its axis, but it canβt happen again.
My plan was avoidance, but that got blown to shit when my firm hired her as a new junior attorney. Now Iβm her boss, and Iβm supposed to act like I donβt want to bend her over my desk every five minutes.
But Iβve never held myself back with anything before, so consequences be damned, itβs time to show her how damn good it feels...to be ruthless.

What a fun twist on the office romance!
Addison has a wild night out with Ruthless. Several months later she discovers that Ruthless, the part time male stripper, is actually/also Roman, a lawyer and her new boss. A valiant effort to remain professional finally comes to a head and they try a βfunβ relationship that blossoms into so much more.
I liked both Addison and Roman and found them to be interesting characters. He is very alpha, but remains likeable as he doesnβt cross the line into obnoxious. Addison is a strong female character and plays well against Roman.
As much as I liked Addison and Roman individually and as a couple, the conflict is the story felt forced and a little trite. As well as these two worked together, both professionally and romantically, I found it strange that they would make the choices they did and let a simple misunderstanding blow up like it did. The resolution also felt a little anticlimactic. Addisonβs quick and ready acceptance of Romanβs apology seemed a bit out of character from how weβve known her in the rest of the story.
Even with the struggles I had with the conflict and resolution, I really did enjoy Ruthless. It was a fun and quick escape that has me curious about the other books in the series.
