People call me Ruthless for a reason.

Whether in the court room or the bedroom, my reputation is well-earned. I’m either working hard, working out, or working my way into some woman's panties. Problem is, none of them share my particular kink, and I end up walking away unsatisfied.

Until I meet HER.

She’s a friend of a friend, which makes her off-limits until temptation takes me by the balls and I’m taking her up against a wall. She literally fucks my world off its axis, but I can’t let it happen again.

My plan of avoiding her got blown to shit when my firm hired her as a new junior attorney. Now I’m her boss, and I have to act like I don’t want to bend her over my desk every five minutes.

But I’ve never held myself back from anything before, so consequences be damned. It’s time to take what we both want and show her just how damn good feels...to be RUTHLESS.

MY REVIEW

I've been a fan of Gina Maxwell's since I read her debut novel, Seducing Cinderella, and she cemented my fandom with Shameless. I absolutely fell in love with the P4H crew and couldn't wait to find out more about each of them and the ladies that love them.

Roman has intrigued me from the start. Successful attorney by day, sexy and in-hot-demand stripper at night, I had to know more. Imagine my delight when I discovered his kink *wink*. I think I was more shocked than Addison was and equally pleased. I loved seeing how willing she was to explore with him and those scenes with Austin were insanely hot! This author sure knows how to give us readers erotic and sensual lovemaking.

What impressed me the most was that Roman and Addison's relationship wasn't all about sex, as much as they tried to keep it casual. The author led us through the evolution of their friendship and feelings for one another and gave amazing glimpses of each character's introspection. I only wish there was more of an ending, but I'm sure I'll see these characters again as the series progresses. I wonder who'll be next... *fingers crossed* that it's Austin!
