People call me Ruthless for a reason.
Whether I’m in the court room or in the bedroom, my reputation is well-earned. I’m 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.
She’s 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 can’t happen again.
My plan was avoidance, but that got blown to shit when my firm hired her as a new junior attorney. Now I’m her boss, and I’m supposed to act like I don’t want to bend her over my desk every five minutes.
But I’ve never held myself back with anything before, so consequences be damned, it’s time to show her how damn good it feels...to be ruthless.

RUTHLESS is a fun, fast-paced, sexy story with great dialogue and lots of chemistry between the characters. This captivating story centers on two bold and independent attorneys who are constantly giving each other lots of snarky attitude and I loved all their verbal bantering.
Roman and Madison hook up and then they discover they are going to be working together when Addison is hired to work at Roman’s law firm. Even though they are attracted to one another, Roman and Addison try to hide their feelings. It is entertaining as they spar with each other and try to ignore the sizzling chemistry burning between them. Roman is constantly trying to get himself under control whenever he is around Addison but she pushes all his buttons.
Roman has never met a woman like Addison. She is a great attorney and they have a highly charged sexual relationship. What starts as just sex turns into more as they spend time with each other. I like these two together; they complement each other. Roman tries to keep his distance from Addison because he thinks he is too kinky for her. He enjoys threesomes and he needs to be in control. Addison is sassy, smart and strong willed, yet she likes Roman’s dominant ways. Addison is ambitious and sexy and pretends she feels nothing for Roman. Roman and Addison both have two personas. One is for work and the other for play. Roman is a bad boy with piercings and tattoos in his free time and a conservative attorney while at work. This story is told from alternating POV’s and has some entertaining secondary characters. RUTHLESS is a smoldering story filled with heat, desire and wickedness.
