Summary

I was a mafia mercenary only hired to find her, but now I’m going to keep her。

She is a Russian mafia princess, kidnapped to be used as a pawn in a dangerous territory war。
Saving her was my job。 Keeping her safe had become my obsession。

Every move she makes, I am in the shadows, watching。
I was like a feral animal: cruel, violent, and selfishly out for my own needs。 Until her。

Now, I will make her mine by any means necessary。
I am her protector, but no one is going to protect her from me。

Sweet Ferocity begins with a slight overlap of the events of Sweet Brutality。 Katie Antonova (Katia Novikoff), a photography student at Worthington University in Virginia has been kidnapped by the yakuza。 They intend to use her as leverage against her father, Russian crime boss, Egor Novikoff。 Although his daughter wasn’t worthy of bodyguards, leaving her vulnerable, despite her brothers having been unalived, Egor does have plans for her。 Upon discovering she’s gone missing, he hires Luka Sidero Sweet Ferocity begins with a slight overlap of the events of Sweet Brutality。 Katie Antonova (Katia Novikoff), a photography student at Worthington University in Virginia has been kidnapped by the yakuza。 They intend to use her as leverage against her father, Russian crime boss, Egor Novikoff。 Although his daughter wasn’t worthy of bodyguards, leaving her vulnerable, despite her brothers having been unalived, Egor does have plans for her。 Upon discovering she’s gone missing, he hires Luka Siderov, mafia mercenary to find her。 He couldn’t have predicted the chain of events this action would set into motion, however。 Luka becomes invested after simply seeing a photo of his Katia, making the extraction personal。 He’s unapologetically set his sights on her and their story is all the things。 As we’ve come to expect from Zoe, Sweet Ferocity has balances strong characters with intense steam, all tied up in an engaging storyline。 Sweet Ferocity brings us the fiercely determined Katia and the tough-as-nails, no-fcuks-to-give Luka。 If you love a hero who will lovingly bulldoze his woman, a heroine who gives as good as she gets, and sėxy times that will deplete BOB’s batteries, you’re going to want to click, click, clickety, click, click。 (Yes, I totally borrowed that from my SF review because it’s accurate AF!!)Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2Darkness: 🖤 Heat: 🌶🌶🌶🌶Ending: HEAPOV: Dual🗂 Genre: Dark Romance✨ Tropes: Mafia/Bratva/Crime, Alphahole Hero,⛔️ Warning: This book (and series) may cause blushing, squirming, combusting panties, and/or self-care。 It’s definitely NSFW or with a kiddo by your side。 In fact, I would highly recommend you read this one after dark to avoid side eye or awkward conversations。⚠️ Safety Squad: If you have any hesitation, check the warnings before diving in。 Otherwise, blind is best!!📣 Type: Sweet Ferocity is part of the Ruthless Obsession series, but can be read as a standalone。🛑 Be Advised: My Goodreads shelves are … explicit in both senses。 As such, they could be considered spoiler-y。 。。。more

Luka and Katie are on word sizzling hot oh my I could not get enough I was consumed with their story, it was funny , Action packed and so many feelings with Luka being a very domineering Alpha and Katie being so brave and stubborn she gave him a workout。I love the writing the plot every single thing in this story and the series best men ever。

how do these keep getting better???I am so in love with this series。 I will be in mourning when it ends。 Luka and Katia are no exception。 Both equally fierce and strong characters。 The spice was immaculate and soooo hot。 A must read for smut lovers。 Xox

Katie is just trying to live her life at college far away from her brutal crime family to the point that she even switched up her name to be normal, however, that's not how it works in the brutal world her family operates in。 There's another crime family who ended up kidnapping her, and Luka is hired to find her & deliver her to her awful father。 The thing is, Luka has finally found the one, so he decides that he's going to keep this beauty no matter how she feels about it, and Katie definitely Katie is just trying to live her life at college far away from her brutal crime family to the point that she even switched up her name to be normal, however, that's not how it works in the brutal world her family operates in。 There's another crime family who ended up kidnapping her, and Luka is hired to find her & deliver her to her awful father。 The thing is, Luka has finally found the one, so he decides that he's going to keep this beauty no matter how she feels about it, and Katie definitely put him through the paces。 They have a very intense connection so it's complicated since she doesn't want to be with any Russian man, but Luka isn't going to give her up either。 Oh, and then there's her horrible father who isn't going to take it lying down since he has already promised her to another。 Sweet Ferocity had it all, heat in spades (despite the fact that I was a bit pissy about some of the sexy times at first), entertaining battles between hero & heroine, a fantastic supporting cast, and twists coming in hot with a kicker of action so yeah, this was the perfect mafia read in my eyes! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 。。。more

This has been such an amazing series。 It ends with the story of Luka and Katie。 We had an introduction to them in Carinna and Maxim's story。 Katie worked hard to escape her Russian crime family。 She is a student at a university in Virginia。 She has a new name and a new life。 Her family's enemies catch up to her and she is taken。 Luka is hired to bring her back。 Unfortunately her father has horrible plans for her in Moscow。 Luka starts falling for her before even meeting her。 I loved how he got t This has been such an amazing series。 It ends with the story of Luka and Katie。 We had an introduction to them in Carinna and Maxim's story。 Katie worked hard to escape her Russian crime family。 She is a student at a university in Virginia。 She has a new name and a new life。 Her family's enemies catch up to her and she is taken。 Luka is hired to bring her back。 Unfortunately her father has horrible plans for her in Moscow。 Luka starts falling for her before even meeting her。 I loved how he got to know her through her photography and life。 She, like so many of the other girls, fights him tooth and nail for the majority of the story。 Not because she doesn't feel the same, but because she is fearful of having the same miserable life her father gave her mother。 She has sworn to never have a relationship with any Russian man。 But Luka isn't just any man。 He is obsessed with her, loves her deeply, will literally risk his life for her。 He cares about every aspect of her life。 No, he isn't just any man and what they have is incredibly special。 Thankfully she realizes the full depth of her feelings and love for him。 Villains and vanquished。 I loved getting to see all of the men and women from the previous books as well as the Ivanov series。 They bring so much humor。 You can't read the conversations the men have and not literally laugh out loud。 Zoe is such an amazing author。 She really creates and writes these beautiful lives with so much depth。 We see a happy and amazing ending for all of the friends。 I received a complimentary copy and am leaving my honest review。 。。。more

Zoe Blake is one of the best at writing strong, crazy, possessive and dirty Russian alpha males。 Luka is so strong and O/P。 He sees a picture of Katie and must have her。 Katie is smart and defiant。 I love to see the sparks fly when these two clash。 I loved the story and this entire series。
