I’m an asshole.
And I make no apologies for it.
My life has been spent drenched in the blood of my enemies.
Our family legacy, left only to me when my brother walked away.
Women are pawns in a game for pleasure. Nothing more.
Until her. Madison Parker.
I’m enthralled. Captivated.
But my past is far too dark.
Pushing her away is my only option.
Yet her stubborn, sassy mouth and beautiful eyes weaken me.
I save her as much as she saves me.
Then blood is spilled once more, and I’ll forever live with the guilt.
Can light find its way through my darkness?
Can she truly be the salvation for this ruthless heart?

Since that first book i've read by Dani René, Ace Of Hearts, this author has absolutely improved in the way that she delivers her stories. While her first novel was more of the contemporary romance genre, i've noticed that slowly but surely she's been leaning towards the edgier and darker side of BDSM and the dark nature of humans and their fantasies.

Indulge was really quite interesting. It captured my attention as well as my curiosity - there were more than one aspect that made me want to know more about these characters. While i hadn't read all of the previous books in this series, i didn't find it difficult to follow the storyline. In fact, we had a full new story when it came to Peyton and Carrick and these two together, wow. They are quite the pair.

There's no denying the fact that not every reader is going to fall head over heels in love with this book. Why? Because this book delves into the need for humiliation and pain, and trust me when i say that Carrick is more than happy to give it to Peyton. Although, this woman won't let herself be walked all over - so here's where you have to realize the difference between submission (where a woman has a tendency to follow the dictates of a Dom) and kink (where D/s doesn't come into play, but intimate encounters do include specific needs and wants). Is this book about D/s? personally, i don't think so, but that doesn't mean there aren't any elements of it.

I'm really curious to know more about this series, to find out more about the players that are all linked somehow to the Seven Sins club and see where Dani René will go from here.

I'm always a curious little bee when it comes to BDSM themed novels - to find out how authors perceive the lifestyle and especially their own take on what a club looks and feels like. So when they give it this dark twist, it does make me a little giddy - i won't lie, i like dark themed novels since there is no limit as to what our fantasies will allow us.

Ruthless is Carrick's brother, Callan, story. While i thought that Carrick was a sadist, i don't think he can hold a candle to Callan's sadism. That or Madison is one heck of a masochist. There were no holds barred between these two. They wanted and needed to explore every single bit of their attraction for one another and find out exactly what makes them tick.

Trust me when i say that this book won't be for everywhere. There are many triggers and if you're one bit squeamish, i'd probably stay away from this book. But if you're the adventurous type and more than willing to see just how depraved and how open minded people can be when it comes to pain, pleasure and the darkest of fantasies, then this book will absolutely hit every single of those points and then some.
