They are criminals…murders.If things like that bother you Ruthless People is not for you.”. McAvoy even warns you, “These are not mobsters with a heart of gold….They do VERY bad things and will NOT change.

Going into this book, I knew bad things were going to happen, and decisions were going to be made that I necessarily didn’t agree with, so I knew not to overthink it. And yes, despite all of that, I still became OBSESSED with this book and these characters. There’s killing-of-innocents, destroying-of-lives, bashing-of-faces, and a helluv a lot more violence. Ruthless People had the bad-ass dominant heroine, the alpha male, the dark humor, the perfectly steamy scenes.įirst you should know, Ruthless People is not a fluffily, sunshine, and rainbows read. This book had everything I loved in a book, and I mean absolutely everything. I am a huge fan of mafia romances but this one is by far my FAVORITE mafia/mob romance EVER. <3 I also found a lot of things in this book to be hilarious but if you don’t enjoy dark humor chances are you may not find this book as entertaining as I did. Ruthless People can be described as unique, f*cked-up, bad-ass, sexy-as-hell, and yes, even a bit romantic. But here I am, 2 hours after finishing Ruthless People, mentally struggling to find the right words to describe my experience with Ruthless People. I honestly do not think I’ve ever had such a big internal struggle with what to say in a review. If things like that bother you Ruthless People is not for you. They do VERY bad things and will NOT change. *Warning: Due to bad language, graphic violence and sex this is for over-18’s only* These are not mobsters with a heart of gold…. The Mafia of the past has evolved, and with rival bosses gunning for them, Melody and Liam will have to learn to work as one to take down those who stand in their way. She knows exactly what type of man he is, and would rather die than give up the power she has spent her life building.

Liam believes he’s getting a simple-minded wife, one he can control, one who bends to his every need. Their marriage, arranged by their fathers in hopes to end years of bloodshed between the Irish and the Italians. Ruthless People is a romantic crime fiction set in modern day Chicago, and follows the life and marriage of Melody Giovanni and Liam Callahan-rivals by blood and leaders through fear. But behind closed doors is a constant battle for dominance between two Bosses, cultures, and hearts. To the outside world, they look like American Royalty, giving to charities, feeding the homeless, rebuilding the city.
