Ruthless by Hannah Gray

4.25

Ruthless by Hannah Gray is more than just a romance. It takes you on a journey through trauma, healing, and the complexities of love. Briar, who had a traumatic past, defies expectations with her unwavering positivity and kindness. Her strength and resilience are inspiring, making her a truly relatable and admirable female lead. It also explores Hudson's journey of healing as he navigates complex feelings of wanting and desiring Briar. 

The arranged marriage trope with the high-stakes world of the mafia creates a unique and intriguing dynamic. This book delivers a plot that is both fast paced and emotionally charged. The development of the relationship between Briar and Hudson, amidst the backdrop of their respective worlds, is a central focus of the story, and the author successfully captures the complexities and passion of their connection. The chemistry between Briar and Hudson is palpable, and their relationship develops through subtle glances, intimate touches, and the gradual building of trust. 

Ruthless is a captivating read that will leave readers invested in the characters and eager to see their journey unfold.

Thank you so much to Hannah Gray and Wordsmith Publicity for the ARC of this book! I voluntarily read it and gave an honest review.
