Shop with confidence

Alex knows he can speak fluently in Hebrew, a language he has never learnt, as well as having the power to heal even the terminally ill. At first his mum assumed it was all a dream, making her reluctant to talk about, or acknowledge what he said. She was a big-time victim, though it wasn't her fault.

Sold to a bad man at the age of 15, all she knew of men was abuse. Jimmy had a thing for her so he bet her owner in a card game. There was problem after problem, but finally they overcame all that halfway through the book. The second half of the book was more interesting. Maria has gained confidence and happiness, but Jimmy's long-buried childhood demons are resurfacing and causing him to sabotage their relationship. At the end of the book, it's clear that there's a lot more story to tell and I can't wait to read the next book in the Ruthless series. View all 3 comments.

Series: Ruthless [Clow]

Apr 13, Michelle rated it did not like it Shelves: There was too much going on. I don't want everyone's POV. I just could not get interested in this book with all the inner dialogue, every POV, and so much detailed information. I got bored and frustrated. Oct 06, Melanie Lewis rated it did not like it.

Paperback Editions

I cannot understand how anyone could think that a supposedly saved sex slave, who ends up marrying a murdering thug who has no problem with both hitting and raping her is an uplifting story. The prose was weak and childish. I counted over 60 times when the phrase; "They all laughed", or similar permutation , was used. This book gets 1 star for managing to con so many people into believing it's worth reading.

It's not, r I cannot understand how anyone could think that a supposedly saved sex slave, who ends up marrying a murdering thug who has no problem with both hitting and raping her is an uplifting story. It's not, really not. Sep 24, susan morns rated it it was amazing. Excellent book This book is fantastic I couldn't put it down bought the next one and I'm looking forward to reading it.

Jun 21, evelyn l kimuri rated it did not like it. Very slow The way it's written was quite poor. There were so many "they all laughed" I wish it was more conversational instead of describing characters feelings.

May 08, Whitney rated it it was ok Shelves: Insert -Snatch- movie characters here. I think thats the only reason i kept reading and telling myself i enjoyed it, Jason Stathom. The dialogue was really messy being back and fort Insert -Snatch- movie characters here. The dialogue was really messy being back and forth, i think because it wasn't distinguished properly.

I'm not sure if it was the heavy accent but i would often get thrown off on who was speaking and although there was Rarely a dull moment, sometimes i just got bored with so much conversation and backstory. As far as my emotions during this crazy long ride- just raw. Also pretty grossed out at some points and i've read some dark shit.

Apr 14, Bennita rated it liked it Shelves: This read like three stories in one.

I was confused how the plot climaxed so soon and then moved on to another plot and then yet again. I was also a little frustrated with the formatting of the dialogue as well. It was distracting and I had to re-read passages to figure out who was saying what. At times there was also a lot of info. The story was highly entertaining and kept my attention, but the characters became annoying and I actually disliked the hero in the end.

I love a controllin This read like three stories in one. I love a controlling alpha male, but Jimmy was over the top and abusive both physically and emotionally. I also felt like Maria was being babysat the entire book by friends. She was more like a pet than Jimmy's girlfriend. Maria was very fearful and untrusting of anyone outside of their circle, so it was nice to see her character grow into an independent woman. There was so much going on in this story, but some of it could be left out so the story flowed more smoothly. Jul 02, Linda rated it it was amazing Shelves: I loved this book and thought it was brilliant.

I thought the story was original and bloody brutal in places just the kind on Genre I love, Jimmy, a London gangster wins a game of poker and a woman from a gangland crime boss. It won't be to everyon I loved this book and thought it was brilliant. It won't be to everyone's taste, but don't forget at the end of the day it's a work of fiction but for me it was brilliant ;D View all 5 comments. Oct 11, Lisa added it Shelves: Maybe this was a really good book. But I didn't find out because it was too hard to read. Dialogue was smashed together and you couldn't tell who was speaking.

There are too many other books to read without having to analyze who is saying what. Feb 02, Beverley Spiller rated it really liked it. Mar 30, Angela Burnyeat rated it liked it.
