About this ebook

She knows love is a fairytale…until her ruthless operative ex steals her heart.


Haisley Rowe has always believed that happily-ever-afters are pretty lies. But after a scorching, year-long fling with a rugged operative, she committed the ultimate sin: falling for a man who will never love her back. Carrying her secret, she left town. Two years later she’s back, and a fateful run-in proves he alone still ignites her—body and soul.


Nash Scott disavowed marriage and babies...until Haisley blazed into his life, all fiery red hair and saucy sexiness, awakening his insatiable desire and becoming his deepest obsession. Now that she’s returned, he’ll do whatever it takes to make her his for good.


When he tackles a twisted abduction case, he discovers Haisley is embroiled, too. In a high-stakes world of vast power and unthinkable danger, they will have to repair each other’s hearts and their shattered trust before it’s too late. But as darker forces zero in, shocking secrets will be uncovered and threaten to tear them apart forever…

This is the 9th book in the Wicked Lovers:Soldiers For Hire series and it's the beginning of Nash and Haisley's duet. With Nash and Haisley we are given a wonderful 2nd chance romance between two people who have explosive chemistry together. There's also suspense in the story with the investigation into the disappearing young women. It really grabs your attention from the very beginning until we reach the cliffhanger ending leaving us waiting to see what's going to happen. I can't wait for the next book! I would definitely recommend reading this book!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Wicked & Ruthless is Book 9 of Wicked Lovers: Soldiers For Hire, and is the first part of Haisley and Nash's story. Haisley is a social media promoter and Nash, a hunky security specialist. It is a very steamy, second-chance romance with a lot of action and suspense. The two have a hot and kinky past, but Haisley just left 2 years ago and is back. Nash has a bit of a commitment phobia but has not gotten over Haisley and doesn't know why she left. The two end up working together again to work on a case where girls are going missing in the area. Will they get their second chance? Their chemistry is still hot, but expect a lot of danger and drama. We do end on a cliffhanger, so be warned. I can't wait for the next installment!!!!.
