Roman Reeves is a cutthroat attorney with a reputation to match on his day job, but when he’s out of the courtroom and his office, when he’s on his side job or clubbing, he embraces a completely different persona and both of them are as Ruthless, as his stripping nickname.
Enter Addison Paige, BFF to his friend’s Chance’s girlfriend and therefore off limits. Roman doesn’t mix friendship or business with sex. Unfortunately for him, Addison is hot, which catches his eye, and determined. She won’t take no for an answer and, once she manipulates her way into a one-time-only hook up with Roman, the world as they know it will change and fate will bring them back together.
Roman and Addie are one sexy, extra hot and off the charts couple. Both are strong headed and used to be in control. She’s smart and sassy, not one to keep her mouth shut under any circumstances, whether is work or personal, and he’ll always have the need to show her who is boss…in and out of the bedroom.
As all people, they have insecurities about themselves and relationships in general and these will come to play by making both of them doubt they can have a HEA. Another big thing in this book is Roman’s sexual fetish, which will make the story über sexy and spicy. Trust me, you’ll feel your underwear melt as you read!
There’s no wonder why Gina Maxwell is one of my favorite authors ever since I first read Seducing Cinderella. This lady can do no wrong and delivers great stories full of sweet love and dripping eroticism every single time. Ruthless is one hot, sexy ride! An office romance taken to the next level.
So, if you are in the market for a hot alpha with a smart mouth heroine and lots of sexy times that will leave you looking for more, pick up a copy. You won’t be disappointed.5 scorching and legally binding stars!

So after reading Shameless in one day I didn’t know how I was going to make it until Ruthless came out. So I went on NetGalley, requested the book and the next day this baby was on my Kindle. Talk about happy girl!!! This book did not disappoint!!

We are first introduced to Roman and Addison in Shameless. Roman aka Ruthless is Chance’s best friend. Addison is Jane’s best friend.  So with that being said Roman has decided that Addison is off limits because he doesn’t want to ruin the groups friendship. Isn’t that noble? Eventually Addison ends up working for Roman  and that’s when the real fun begins!!

Roman and Addison are both headstrong and opinionated. Addison has a mouth on her and knew how to push Romans buttons which I loved. They fought, clawed and loved hard. I love book couples like them. The sexual tension was oozing off the pages as you read. In this series each couple has a secret sexual fantasy. In this book we explore having a third person in the bedroom. We have a ménage scene that was off the charts hot and steamy. I mean several parts of the story were hot but this was my favorite part. What I loved about the ménage was that Addison’s needs were put first and she was treated with respect before, during and after. Make sure to read this book in the a/c or stick your head in the freezer. I had to crack open a window because of how hot I got!!

As the relationship progresses insecurity issues and doubts start to rear it’s ugly head. Neither Roman or Addison wanted anything major but  things happen when you least expect it. So when we reach that critical point will Roman and Addison be able to move forward? Or will their agreement end? Only one way to find out and that’s by reading the book. I know, I know but if I told you where’s the fun in that?? Trust me it’s worth it!

Maxwell is a new to me author and I just love her writing style. I devoured both books in two days. Fans of Shameless will definitely enjoy Ruthless. Well done again Maxwell!
