Aaaannnddd – Riley is in love! No, he really fell that fast, and he had no defense against sweet, sweet Ellie. That was perfect though, because Ellie needed to be loved, and even though he messed it all up before he could correctly convince her, when it counted in the end, she realized what he knew all along. Riley loved Ellie and would choose her every single time. Having a loving family come along with him was simply the icing on the cake. Some great suspense, some wonderful characters, and a lovely love story at the centre of it all <3
Oh yes the Lawless brother’s are here…
Can you imagine watching your parents be murdered???
Can you imagine finding yourself and your 3 siblings trapped in your burning house not just left to die but some bared all the doors and windows to make sure no one lived through this…

Ruthless was a seriously well named story, the business world is brutal and when you wage war you really need to truly know all the players because one wrong move and everyone can come crashing down, you can hurt the people you have come to love and then there is nothing left, is it all worth it??
I loved seeing Mia and Case. Mia might be a Taggert now but she was born a Lawless. Case is an awesome strategist and he always has an amazing read on people hopefully the Lawless men will learn to listen to him more…lol
Drew being the oldest is a hard ass, Reilly is well Reilly he is hard because he has had to be but he still has a soft side when he finds the right woman… Welcome Ellie Stratton she is everything Reilly wants but she is also the enemy in his families eyes, her father was one of the people who killed his parents can he trust her? Could she really be a good person underneath ?
Ellie Stratton is alone in the world and always has been, she can be surrounded by people but she still feels isolated and alone, until the day Reilly Lang Lawyer hottie walks into her office then her world spins, crashes and may never, ever recover.
I truly loved this story is was full of suspense, intrigue and sexy men…lol whats not to love oh and now I can’t wait for more of the youngest Lawless brother Sweet Bran oh my this guy is complex and just wonderful…
Love love love this series!!! Great characters and story line.
Lexi Blake is true talents lie in the Intricacies and details of her stories and the humanity and dimension she gives her characters. As with all her work the underlying theme is the importance of family… both blood and by extension “adopted.” There’s a complexity to these romantic suspenses that draws you in and holds your attention from the first page until the last. Human behavior is closely examined and personal growth is championed. In Riley Lang’s case, revenge is the motivating factor in his assignment of getting close to Ellie Straten. But it’s quickly apparent that what’s in her file does not tell the real Ellie story. Finding love was not expected, losing her love may devastate him for the rest of his life. Earning her trust and forgiveness is an all consuming endeavor.
‘Ruthless,’ is book one in the Lawless series, a spin-off series to Masters and Mercenaries…. and is a wonderful read. This novel has ties and a direct link to the Taggart family, through their baby sister, Mia. Whom happens to be married to Case Taggart.
The Lawless Family was torn apart the night their parent were murdered, after narrowly escaping death themselves. Now, many years later, they are finally in a position to bring those murders to justice, by whatever means necessary. This is Riley and Ellie’s story.
