Lori’s Five Star Review: I received and ARC for my honest review. So honest I will be. I went into this book with extremely high expectations, and I’m happy to say I was not disappointed. I have read all the eagle elite books so I knew all the things going into this book (not that you need to have read them) even though this is a new series I would recommend reading the Eagle Elite series eventually if you haven’t already. Anyways back to Ruthless Princess. Serena….. Junior…… love….. hate….. pain…… life…… death……. I really want to talk about what happened but I feel as though I’ll just ramble and give away the ending. (Now that songs in my head. Are you an illusion…) And I went off track again…. I stared at the ARC on my kindle, and stared at it for a while until I gave in. And a few hours later I’m finished. That’s right I read the entire thing front to back in one sitting and didn’t even realize that my entire afternoon/night was spent ignoring everything around me. (I didn’t even get up to check on my 1 week old baby pigs, well I almost stopped with the mention of tea cup pigs) there is so much crazy and awesome and terrible things in this book that you can’t help but become so engrossed in what’s happening until you hit that last page in the book and then look up and realize that it’s over. So now what….. I haven’t been that sucked in in so long I don’t even know what to do with myself. Maybe I should have taken the disclaimer a little more serious. Ha but anyways. This book was great, once again Rachel has outdone herself and I can’t wait to read the next book. If only we could fast forward until January 2021…… Ps- I didn’t even realize the news was on the tv while reading this book. And believe me I change the channel at the first mention of any news because I like living in a bubble, especially right now.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.
