to say i’m invested is an understatement… took me not even a whole day finish this book 🙈.
even though the info we got about the dads and their “business” was vague I had an idea of what it could be and i’m upset that I was correct. even though nothing is confirmed, by the way these men act with women it’s kinda a no brainer. let’s not even discuss the ending and Kingston’s dad 🤢.
positive times for this book was the fab 5, I love their whole dynamic. I’m a fan of Kingston after this book, he really stepped up and was there for Jazz. Bentley broke my heart in this book with all that we found out about him & why he acts the way he does. then we have freakin’ Ainsley & Reed, little cuties 🥰 hopefully we get more of their relationship in the next book.
i’m very interested to see how this whole story is going to go and how the issues with this crazy trust fund is going to play out.
on to the next crazy book

Ruthless Kings
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Trigger warnings:
Violence
Attempted rape
Talk of rape
Drug use
Talk of suicide
I take it back, this series is addictive. I loved when Kingston got annoyed at himself because he was jealous, pls- His signature response to literary anything is growling... And just to get it clear; no, she wasn't MADE for you.
Jazz is so mean, it's not even necessary most times.
The second-hand embarrassment is like nothing else, helppp-

okay after dnf’ing the first book i just read the ending of it to see if the author would address the drugging in this book. it is addressed, apparently they didn’t drug her but told another guy to make her “sloppy and drunk” so they can take pictures of her

Ooooh, this book is steamy, intriguing, and downright delicious.
Ruthless Kings picks up right where Wicked Liars left us at the breathtaking cliffhanger. There are so many questions, the mystery plot thickens, and we are no closer to finding out who attacked Jazz.
Jazz is recovering from her brutal attack and doesn't know who to trust. The list of suspects is longer than the people she can keep close. Pushing everyone away she tries to go back to her aloof self and push everyone away, but the big flaw in her plan is the king of Windsor Academy, Kingston Davenport. He's become a barnacle caveman who refuses to let her out of his sights, but to earn her trust he needs to begin spilling some secrets.
Kingston may have had the funds to pay the men who attacked Jazz, but he soon proves that he is too attached to the girl who has taken over his entire mind, body, and soul. He pulls out all the stops to find her attackers, while still also keeping some of his own secrets. While Jazz could be the key to bringing down his father and hers he's getting too emotionally involved to continue using her to bringing them down.
Who is behind the attack, who is spying on Jazz, and how can they bring down these powerful men? There are still so many ends to tie up and will everyone make it out alive? I'm so excited to the next installment and to have my questions answered.

Jazz is unsure who to trust after her attack. In order to gain her trust, Kingston reveals his suspicions about their fathers. Jazz continues getting closer with Ainsley and finding her way at Windsor academy. She must figure out who to trust since it appears anyone like her attackers and the people who hired them are very close.
—this story is meh. Nothing in particular stands out from other bully romances that include terrible wealthy parents. I am a huge fan of Kingston though. He’s your stereotypical alphahole. Although the story is interesting, I’m not going to continue the series. So many of the mysteries were answered in the second book, there’s nothing really pulling me to book 3.
