I liked the first half but I skimmed through some of the second half because it started to get boring and I wanted more from the characters and the storyline. What I mean is that you’re the kind of girl who makes normally sane men lose their minds. You could turn the pope into a sex addict.” I lose myself in a blinding whiteout of heat and pleasure, convulsing around him, a noise like howling winds in my ears. I hear him cursing from somewhere far off, feel him shuddering and hear his hoarse groans, but I’m way out in space, hurtling toward infinity. Supernova. Gone. I’m feral, a wild thing uncontained. I’ve never experienced such intense feelings of bliss and euphoria. I don’t care about anything, past or future. Only now exists. Only he exists, and I exist only for him. I’m an addict, and he’s heroin, injected straight into my veins. The moment stretches out into timelessness. I live and die a thousand times, resurrected into his arms only to be lost again. I lose all sense of who I am, and that feels right, like in losing myself, I’ve finally discovered what I’ve searched for so desperately: Meaning. This book was boring through the first part, almost 30% in, and I put it down cz I was bored out of my mind. And I think the reason for that was the insta-love/lust between them. The romance was not insta-love in the traditional way, but still a bit too fast and hasty to my taste. Their dynamic, their verbal jousts and the way Kage was so amorous and obsessed with Natalie were so well sketched, however, their relationship did feel shallow around the edges. It was cenmented on a reciprocated draw, attraction and lust only and didn’t develop or increase from that point. I desperately needed more. A soupçon of depth to their bond maybe pulled with more heart-to-heart conversations or romantic moments.

Ruthless Creatures is the start of her brand new Queens & Monsters series and I was so here for it. Mafia bad boys meet their match with fierce heroines? Yes please and thank you!Additionally, some readers have found fault with instances of clichéd language or character tropes in the novel. This may result in the book feeling somewhat predictable for seasoned romance readers. Lastly, a few readers have criticized certain aspects of the writing, finding it not as smooth as they expected from an established author like Geissinger. Spoiler alert. The rest is history set on the bedroom for almost 50% of the book. No explanation needed. I trust y'all to understand what I meant. At the bar, she sees a mysterious man, very handsome, looking at her as if he wants to eat her☺. That is what she said through her thoughts!

However, “Ruthless Creatures” didn’t live up to my expectations. It is definitely not bad and you should definitely read it but it is not great, either. It didn’t have a wow effect on me, like most of JT’s books did. It was a solid 3,5 stars for me but not 4. I decided to give this book another read and I am so glad I did because it was excellent. Kage has become one of my favorite book boyfriends. Very well written with a possessive, alpha, Russian foul mouthed MC who just oozed sex. The love scenes were intense and graphic and I loved every minute. Highly recommended. Kage, on the other hand, a part of the dangerous Russian mafia world, emerges as an enigmatic, intense, and irresistible presence. The intriguing balance between his dark and lurid choices and the tender emotions he harbors for Natalie fuels the character development.Five years ago, my fiancé disappeared. He left me with a wedding dress I’d never wear. Left me with the kind of scars that can’t be healed. The man I built my future on vanished like a ghost. All that remained was my broken heart and a million unanswered questions. Kage Porter forms no attachments, leaves no trails. It’s a job that leads him to Natalie. She is the reason he fails. A mistake that could cost them both their lives. But he chooses to be selfish because she’s worth the risk. If Natalie had thought love was doomed, Kage is the reaper.

Ruthless Creatures by J.T. Geissinger ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ REVIEW: Ruthless Creatures by J.T. Geissinger

The writing is always good in a JT book so I cannot complain about it. I just needed more of JT’s delicious banter and couldn’t find it here as much as I wanted.

When her father announces her sister’s upcoming nuptials to the notorious King of the Cosa Nostra, the last thing she expects to feel is an inexplicable pull to her future brother-in-law. I told you this would happen! I told you I’d fall in love with him if I slept with him, and you laughed at me!” When I stay silent, too stunned to answer, he says gently, “I told you I’ve obsessed over you. Did you think that meant writing your name over and over in a notepad and drawing little hearts around it?” Woah buddy, this was a spicy one. The audio was especially good thanks to Troy Duran. Like seriously, where has this narrator been all my life?!
