Review:

I listened to Ruthless Desires Volumes 1 & 2 on audio, and the premise definitely caught my attention — a barista dealing with a toxic family and an unfaithful fiancé who unexpectedly finds herself in the dangerous, passionate world of three hitmen bound by loyalty and love.

While there were moments of intrigue and intensity, I personally had trouble connecting with Wren as a main character. She often felt a little out of place in the story, and I wanted to see more strength from her. The bond between Elliot, Rhett, and Oliver was more developed, especially with their shared mission for justice, which added an interesting layer.

As for the audio performance, the narrators didn’t fully click with me, which made it harder to stay immersed in the story. That said, others may enjoy their delivery and the way they brought the darker, steamy elements to life.

Overall, the concept is unique and will likely appeal to readers and listeners who enjoy unconventional romance mixed with suspense. It just wasn’t quite the right fit for me.
