I swear my goodreads hates me, because I *know* i posted my review for this book before release day and now it's nowhere to be found. *sobs for eternity*
But YA'LL. TALK ABOUT A CONCLUSION TO MY FAVORITE RUTHLESS COUPLE, EVER!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness, I have been not so patiently waiting for this book to hit my kindle, and once it finally did, I was finished within only a few hours and was left wanting to go back and read this trilogy all over again. KL truly outdid themselves here, and it just goes to show that with every installment in the Ruthless Universe(s) their writing just keeps getting stronger. I seriously can't get enough of these two!
Ok, so we pick up right where Tongue's Target left off, with Tongue and Daphne squaring off with her evil fake daddy, and all the bloody chaos that ensued. Now Tongue's world is being held by a string once agian with the fallout of all of that, and the poor man is going out of his head to get his comet to remmeber him. It's like there's a wall within her mind, and she just can't seem to climb it. Tongue however, beautiful, sensitive, sweet Tongue knows their love is strong enough to overcome anything, even a fractured mind. And oh my stars, their love is just so freaking magical. I seriously could not love these even more than I already do.
I loved the slow and quiet way Daphne came back to Tongue, and just how strong she really was. She was fighting with who she really is and the woman that Tongue remembers and puts on a pedestal, and the two just kept colliding aginst each other, which made it frustrating for them both. But once they had an honest conversation, Daphne flourished again, and their love turned more deeper if that's possible, more possessive and obsessive in the best of ways. And seriously, their sexy times were by far some of the best firey scenes I have EVER read. Seriously, I needed my husband, a cold shower, and a cigarette after one particular scene. You're welcome. ;)
What I love most about these two is how they defy every odds stacked against them. They are soul mates in every sense of the word, and just fit together in the most unexpected ways. Their love literally defies time and reason, but it's so *them* and I just cannot stop gushing about it. I love how this Ruthless man who only sees himself as battered and bruised and not worthy of Daphne's love can be such a gentle and just so pure with his love. And Daphne's possessive side really comes out tenfold here, and I LOVE IT. Girl knows this is her man, and she will fight to the literal death to keep him.
I don't think there was a better way to end their story (and you know we will see more of them in the other books too!) and I'm just so grateful that I was able to experience their love first-hand. I just can't recommend this beautiful couple enough!!
**Remember, this is not a standalone, and you must read Tongue & Tongue's Target before reading this one.
**I received an ARC of this book and these are my honest opinions!**
