Fan-freaking-tastic!
Give me the Mafia and their families, their world and all the romance and violence. I’m in!
Blood in. No out!
To start, I absolutely love Rachel Van Dyken and the stories she shares with us....BUT (and this is huge), I never read the original Eagle Elite mafia series that she blessed us with. I know <GASP!!> I own quite a few of those books, but I was always intimidated by how many books there were in the series. I can't believe I didn't just suck it up. But that's ok; I'm going in now with their kids and I'm going to enjoy every last minute of their bloody, sinfully delicious world they've created.
Ruthless Princess is all the good and violent things I've come to love in an excellent and bloody mafia story. Some of the rules the parents made for the new generation are completely unbelievable and unrealistic for families that live so closely together, but they must abide by them or there are serious, deathly repercussions. Like not connecting romantically with any of the "cousins" (let's make this very clear...none of them are related in that way, but that's what they are to one another because they grew up as close as blood family). But Serena and Junior have this connection and they don't know what to do about it. The sexual tension and 'hate' between the two drips right off the page and makes you feel for them. They are electric!
"We have to pretend we hate each other because it's the only thing as extreme as our love."
Rachel van Dyken has created another world that I am all in for. This forbidden love and violent mafia world is just setting us up for what's to come. Junior is brutal and alpha and the only one that could handle a woman like Serena. Serena is pretty dang kickbutt. She throws down with the guys because she is next in line to rule. I loved the fight scenes best. Especially to see a woman kick just as much butt as the men she is around. I could feel the blood, sweat and tears coming right off the pages. I can't wait to see what's going to happen with these kids and their families next. These kids are vital to their parents but they are loyal to one another and that was awesome to see. I loved each and every character and never felt lost with all the characters mentioned from the past and present. This is the next generation and they are going to make the world their own.

A compelling mafia romance you won’t want to miss!
Rating: 4.5“Our love was impossible. And I knew more than her—how easy love could start a war.”As the first installment of Rachel’s Mafia Royals series, Ruthless Princess was unlike anything I’ve read before. Having read this author’s contemporary romances, I was curious to read her mafia romances and boy I wasn’t disappointed! Now as someone who hasn’t read the previous series, I had no trouble jumping into this book. But if you need a little more backstory of these characters and world, I would recommend reading the Eagle Elite series. This new series will follow the children of the characters in the previous series. So for me, I had no trouble connecting with these characters. I’m a sucker for mafia romances, so this series was definitely my cup of tea.Ruthless Princess was a captivating friends to enemies romance that had it all. I just loved Junior and Serene’s compelling and complicated love story. I loved the undeniable chemistry between these two. Their heartbreaking journey had me hooked from beginning to end. The push and pull between them was such an emotional rollercoaster that I couldn’t put this book down. I also couldn’t help rooting for these two and hoping things would work out for them. But rest assured that this standalone ends with a happily ever after. To me this first standalone was the perfect jump start to this series and I’m so excited to see what Rachel has in store for us in the following books. Trust me, you won’t want to miss this all new series!
