Ruthless Creatures (Queens & Monsters Book 1)

Product Information

People say time heals all wounds, but those people are assholes. Wounds like mine don’t heal. I’ve just learned to control the bleeding. However, it’s essential to note that this novel contains adult subject matter that might be triggering or offensive for some. These include scenes of violence, kidnapping, torture, and explicit intimate moments. Bottom Line Well, the parts about mafia are never the focus of the book, which was good for me as I really don’t like mafia romance and I rarely read this kind of books. However, for a reader who needs a good mafia book with a lot of action in it, this would be a bit disappointing.

Ruthless Creatures - J. T. Geissinger - Google Books

Until a stranger comes rolling into town and buys the house beside hers with a suitcase full of cash. Her head tells her to run in the other direction, but he's got his sights on her and he's not letting her out of his clutches. All in all, the writing style of “Ruthless Creatures” is engaging and effective, making it a worthwhile read for fans of the genre. Conclusion Her first novel was published in 2012. Since then she’s written eighteen more novels. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, drinking wine, surfing the internet, and daydreaming about all the things she’s going to be when she grows up. She lives near the beach in Los Angeles with her husband and deaf/demented rescue kitty, Ginger. This book was boring through the first part, almost 30% in, and I put it down cz I was bored out of my mind. And I think the reason for that was the insta-love/lust between them. There’s no need to be nervous around me. I’m the least unpredictable man you’ve ever met. What I want from you won’t change if you say the wrong thing. It won’t change if you gain weight or cut your hair or decide to go vegan. It won’t change even if you say you never want to see me again and we go our separate ways. I’d honor that request, but it wouldn’t make me stop wanting you. But you should know…” He hesitates. “You should know that I’m not a good man.”

Although you told me you’re not a good man, I don’t believe that’s true. But even if it is, even if you are a bad man, then you’re the best bad man I’ve ever known.” I can still hear his voice. I can still feel his touch. I can still remember the exact smile on his face when he kissed me goodbye before his hike the morning of the rehearsal dinner. I feel like he’s still here. How can I be with someone else when it would feel like cheating?” Kage was mega alpha goodness in all his anti-hero bada--ery ways. After my initial intrigue with him, he soon had me swooning as he smooth talked Nat into giving him a chance. And when I say “smooth talk”, I mean it in the dirtiest way possible. Kage was INTENSE to the extreme and when he got his hands on Nat things heated up fast and furious. I don’t think I’ve ever read a story where the chemistry between the hero and heroine was so extraordinarily felt and perfectly expressed.

This has a lot going on in the story. Some of it I’m hoping will remain a surprise to each reader as that revelation was part of the enjoyment I experienced with this story. Kage and Nat’s relationship has quite a bit of angst to it and it was just another element where this author really pulled me into the story and I found myself hurting for them both as they struggled with the situation they found themselves in. There really are no words at how much I loved every single thing about this story. Nat was sassy and fierce despite feeling emotionally wounded from a situation in her past. She had a sharp wit which led to such fun banter both with Kage and her best friend Sloane. She was the type of character that you’d love to have for real in your life.I'll start off this review with our female main character who ruined this book for me, Natalie. She was a middle school teacher of art. She has a dog that always sleeps. I know, it was insignificant, I was just letting you know. Her fiance abandoned her on their wedding day five years ago. She still hasn't moved on. She dated several men but didn't have sex with them. Until she met her sexy neighbor, Kage.

h's fiance disappeared just before the wedding so we get some references to him and we see her struggle to move on. I hate dead exes but I undersood her situation because she didn't even have closure.

Character Development

The smexy times were 🔥🥵😳👀. Oh man, once they got going, it was like they couldn’t stop. It was visceral, sexy, explosive, sensual and very passionate (the amount of biting and marking was 🔥). It’s always refreshing to have a mob boss that is as faithful as Kage. He waits for consent a lot, but then other times he assumes everything is good, which is different for me in these types of books. Many times, I prefer the man to just take what he wants, and he did that as well, but he always made sure that she was into it- he had her use colors (red, yellow, green) when trying something new 😉. He still handles his business separate from Nat, but their future is on shaky ground based on a lot of things. Also, if there were any kind of dialogue between them to make me understand how did they fall so hard so fast it would have made it slightly okay (probably not) but no it was all so physical between them. They didn’t really TALK. and the dirty talk? Ugh Don’t even get me started, it was all he ever did and it was too cringy I just couldn’t. I’m so done with the physical descriptions of the hero (and heroine as well) being so out of this world in terms of attractiveness. Like everything about the man was perfect. And repeated on a loop. I get it. You told me. Cool it. He’s human, I wanna see more of that. This was definitely a different kind of spice but I really enjoyed a tough hero who legit was into consent. I know that sounds really strange and I'm not adverse to dub con at all (in fact I love it) but I really loved how he was all about making her so damn happy and making sure she was onboard with everything he wanted to do. But nope, it is all about “oh you are beautiful”, “oh you are hot”, “let’s try this position, now” “let’s try this kink, now” etc. Yeah, that’s usually how it goes.

Ruthless Creatures by J.T. Geissinger ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ REVIEW: Ruthless Creatures by J.T. Geissinger

it's a fun, steamy and dirty AF book – with witty writing and lots of passion and obsession. If you like OVER THE TOP obsessive alpha males and kinky sex, this book is definitely for you! 🧡🧡🧡When I stay silent, too stunned to answer, he says gently, “I told you I’ve obsessed over you. Did you think that meant writing your name over and over in a notepad and drawing little hearts around it?” With lots of action and drama added to all of the above, as well as the promise of more Sloane, I ended the book with the promise to myself that I would be rereading it again in the future. Soon.
