This was a it gets better as it goes but not really. A why choose but Ryker was so much better. The spice was hot AF and a good level of violence. But just too emotional and after 350 pages to use the name Daddy
This book is a dark MFM romance, I highly encourage you review the trigger warnings as we all read at different levels of dark. For me this book was good I was so absorbed by Blake and her trauma, not to mention the boys and all they have endured through life. I give this read ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The graphic flashbacks were too much for me. I enjoyed other aspects of the book but couldn’t get past the flashbacks

This book was interesting. I will start by saying I haven’t read the first one but they’re standalone. Nope I’ll start on the book. So the dark romance to spice ratio was very high. The spicy scenes were definitely creative though at times had me wondering when the first FMC might run given her trauma triggers. The FMC is extremely stabby, has a sweet tooth, and uses ASL which you don’t always see but I love the inclusive factor. The plot line was good though I’ll admit the first 10 chapters felt kind of slow paced but you could information that the more you kept with it the more you learned. It had a few fast and slow moments but nothing that made me personally dislike the book. Overall I loved the check points it hit, the plot twists, the dark romance, and the spice factor.
This SERVED
I read this in one sitting! Baby Blake didn’t deserve nothing that happened to her but without it happening she wouldn’t have met Jace and Ryker! Ugh i hated my girl having to suffer! Baby Jace was catching strays left and right until they got to the cabin lmaooo. And Luna! MAY SHE ROT! They should’ve left her where they found her with her crazy obsessed self! Can’t believe she did that but she also got what she deserved! Peak moment when Blake spoke for the 1st time was awesome! For both Jace and Ryker! Learning what her dad did with him not believing made me look at him with disgust. Wish she would’ve ended him too but beggars can’t be choosers! This was my 1st from this author and i loved it. Can’t wait to read more!

Complicated
Blake, Jace and Ryker's dynamic is one I love reading about. Jace, the protective, sweet, caring one and Ryker, the dark, broody, obsessed one both have the same goal. That is to protect Blake from the mafia, but they all learned a lot about themselves and ultimately protected one another.
Ruined is a dark mafia, why choose romance that is filled with heavy themes, and may be disturbing to some, but is truly a well written twisted, dark romance. Learning about the trauma Blake, Ryker and Jace have endured and how they each help the other truly touched my heart. I felt every emotion reading this story and can not wait to read the next book. Thank you for the ARC.
