Ruthless Vows – Book Review
Ruthless Vows by Rebecca Ross
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Just like the first book in this duology, Ruthless Vows has that “vintage” feel of reality mixed with magic that makes it such an interesting read. Ross’s world building is excellent without being tediously cluttered with too many details, described instead through the characters’ acts, thoughts, and everyday lives.
This second installment is heavier on the romance, but the drama, adventure, and suspense don’t lose any of the first book’s intensity.
The characters (all of them, including the side characters) are very well developed and the whole story is sprinkled with the two main characters’ letters and articles which lends the prose a certain lyrical tone that is both lovely and refreshing.
I so loved this duology that I already ordered Ross’ earlier books.
Highly recommend it.
