Ruthless Kingdom is the conclusion of the Boneyard Kings trilogy, and cannot be read as a standalone. 

This is an extremely vague review, as I did with the previous two books. Do yourself a favor and avoid looking for spoilers; you will be doing yourself and the story a disservice. "Just cancel real life, open the book, become enchanted, and brace yourself for an epic mind—-finale, and hot AF steam."

I needed answers. Everything else faded away as soon as Ruthless Kingdom appeared on my Kindle; I needed answers. I needed something to cure the book hangover caused by Vicious Queen, and everything I needed was contained within the pages of Ruthless Kingdom.

So much happened in the previous books that my head was constantly spinning. Ruthless Kingdom was all of that and more. With a few words, I was whisked back into the world of the Boneyard Kings, where I remained until I devoured every word.

The pace is consistent with the previous books, and this author duo wove an intricate plot that left me speechless. Secrets are revealed, and more are exposed at every turn. Evil lurks around every corner, and these kings and their queen are on a mission to reveal the identities of every player on the board.

This world is nothing short of incredible. You're enchanted with just a few words. Each word has a purpose, bringing this dark and twisted story to life and drawing you in deeper. The number of times I said, "wtf," followed by a gasp, attested to this duo's writing ability. I was completely at the mercy of their words, gasping in surprise, the hairs on my arms standing on end. I was as much a part of this story as the characters themselves. It was completely insane. It was highly addictive. This duo had better be just getting started.

Ruthless Kingdom reveals the full extent of Everly's relationship with Cal, Saint, and Mateo. It had to be all of them, because they all had a piece of each other's soul. The kingdom was incomplete until the three kings found their queen. They became one, the Merciless Kings, alongside their Vicious Queen, delivering ruthless vengeance and eradicating evil from their kingdom.

Ruthless Kingdom is a fantastically epic conclusion to the Boneyard Kings trilogy. A spellbinding combination of soul-searing chemistry, three ruthless kings, a vicious queen with a beautiful heart, witty banter, hair-raising twists and turns, muttered "wtfs" and whispered "omfg," and hot AF steam. This combination has firmly established this trilogy as one of my all-time favorites.

The wait is finally over and the last book is here!!

Overall I absolutely loved this series. I do feel like this final book was missing something. But I just can’t put my finger on it. But was still everything I needed for this story line to be finished. Like I’m not wanting for me info or left wondering anything.

I absolutely loved these characters and sad to see them go. But I can’t wait to read more from these two authors!!

Congrats!

Perfection

I had so many questions heading into this final book and they were all answered.

Everly, Callum, Mateo and Saint grew closer in this book—which was the icing on a tense, twisted, and sometimes savage storyline.

Grab your fan, and something to chew on because the steam these four put off is hoooot and with all the tension and suspense, you'll be biting your nails to the quick.

A fantastic end to the series.
Stellar job ladies.

So, so good! It’s an intense conclusion to the story, with twists and surprises. Loved it!

And I loved how their relationship evolved. A good end to their story.

This book was absolutely amazing! I love the Boneyard Kings and how amazing and protective they are of Everly. I love that they immediately know something is wrong when she doesn't answer them immediately and how they go to find her. I hate that her uncle tries to kill her multiple times and that he leaves her tied up in a crypt. I love how fast they find the Mayor when he comes after them and I love that Everly doesn't shy away from seeing him die. I love that they rescue Saint after he is arrested and I was glad the Chief talked when he did. I was glad when they finally killed everyone that had anything to do with killing the kids. I loved that Lorenzo had enough respect and honor to name the memorial after Erik and that he surprised the boys with the memorial. This was an amazing book and I'm so glad I picked it for my first book for June.
