The second worst thing?

Fall in love with your best friend.

Enemy.

Review:
This book was the Mafia romance I didn't know I needed.  I loved Rachel Van Dyken's Eagle Elite series.  There are few instances where I've felt as emotionally connected and attached to the characters of a story as I was in that series.  I was however skeptical of a second series featuring the younger generation.  I should never have doubted RVD's wisdom and greatness.  I wouldn't say that Ruthless Princess is better than the original series, but it certainly holds its own with strong characters.  You can definitely read this without reading the previous series, but I can almost guarantee you'll go back and read them after finishing.


Excerpt: 

He licked his lips and repeated what he always did when we had to perform, when we had to do our jobs. “I won’t be gentle with you.”

Our foreheads touched, my chest heaved with exertion like it was hard to breathe when he was so near, but really it was the promise that killed me, a promise that he wouldn’t enjoy touching me ever again, that I was more curse than cure, and yet, I knew it was all we would ever get, these fleeting moments where we did our job too well. “Then make it hurt, baby.” My voice cracked. “Make it hurt.”

His lips parted in a groan as he spun me into his arms and crushed his mouth to mine. It was part pain, part pleasure as he pulled my hair then slid a hand up my shirt like nobody was watching when everyone was.

We broke apart, mouths swollen, my lower lip was bleeding.

A reminder for both of us—this was no cease-fire, this wasn’t real, it was all a carefully constructed show.

“Mmmmm…” I smirked. “Looks like Junior’s not playing around tonight, ladies.”

Screams went up as Junior grabbed my ass and squeezed so hard, I knew I would bruise later. He roughly pulled me against his chest and nipped at my neck.

I told my body it didn’t feel good.

I told my heart we were safe.

And I forced myself to believe the lie every single time we touched.

Because to do otherwise—would destroy me.
