Ruthless creatures
Loved this one too! J. T. Geissinger books are fun romances with good plots. I love how all her books have sassy heroines and funny dialogues. The romance part of it is swoon-worthy too. Give it a go!

Loved Nat and Kage
What to say about this book? I have no words at all! So when I started with this, I was like really confused and being in a bad reading slump, I am directly DNF'ing books after reading a first few pages, but this one was worth a read!The book starts with our herione, Nat, who's finance went missing 5 years back! Haven't moved on from the loss, you'll witness our herione in loads pain. But the fun starts when Kage, our hero, comes into the picture!This book is a bit darker, but not much heavy on mafia. But if you enjoy reading romances and a smutty quick read steals your heart, grab this copy, it's for you!

5 STAR goes to this Bratva gangster.
5 star read after so long...I derived pleasure reading this book...the suspense kept me on the edge the whole time...The chemistry building between Nat and Kage was slow burning but so delightful....and the action between the sheets was....oh la la hot!!!The characters were so lovable...Nat was fiesty and the sass on this woman...I was laughing so hard at her conversation with her best friend Sloane...( so excited for Sloane to get her own book soon.) Her sass was one of the best part...really the author has the best sense of Humour.Kage was ruthless, lived on the edge type of guy who could never thought of falling in love but the story was so seamless that it was enjoyable to see his soft light side.I totally Recommend this book to Mafia Lovers who love a obsessed Stalker hero and a twisted story they will devore in one go.

A MUST READ!!
Ruthless Creatures is by far the hottest book J.T. Geissinger has ever written. I definitely recommend this book if you enjoy mafia romance, and even if you don't.The story begins with the fifth year anniversary of what would have been Natalie's wedding day, had her fiance not disappeared. She meets Kage, her handsome and mysterious new neighbour, while drowning her sorrows with her best friend Sloane. And thus begins their story.Kage is an alpha male. He's dominant but not a bully. He knows he wants Natalie and goes after her. He's sexy, sharp and funny.Natalie was amazing. She dealt through a lot but didn't create unnecessary drama. She didn't take any attitude from Kage. Moreover, she didn't try to blame him for circumstances he couldn't change. She was smart and witty.Natalie and Kage complemented each other perfectly. Their chemistry was sublime and their banter hilarious.An amazing addition to the story was Sloane. Her relationship with Natalie was one of the best parts of the book. Their conversations were amusing and conveyed the depth of their friendship.The story overall was very well written although kind of predictable. Geissinger has a way with words and makes the characters come alive. I read the book in a single sitting and really enjoyed it. Now to wait for Sloane's book!

If you want ONE angsty mafia romance recommendation from me, this will be right at the top.
Ruthless Creatures by J.T. Geissinger was a ruthless assault on my heart and soul. My head is spinning. My heart is beating wildly and also skipped a few beats. I am on such an all time high adrenaline rush that my body and heart are just refusing to calm down. This is mafia romance at its finest. Dark and deliciously alpha antihero. Witty and sassy heroine. So much raw feelings and dangerous passion. I am beautifully wrecked by J.T. Geissinger.Natalie is still mourning her missing fiance and the wedding that didn't happen. Her heart has a gaping hole. And she is not ready to move on yet. It's been five years. Then a dark and brooding stranger moves into her neighbourhood. Kage is all masculine perfection with an air of untamed danger. They have undeniable chemistry. But Kage has clearly said he is not a good guy. Can they find a happily ever after? Or will the secrets from Natalie's past and Kage's life will take them down?One word. UNPUTDOWNABLE. I couldn't move from my reading place once I started. It sucked me right in the vortex of twists and turns. And I forgot to breathe way too many times. Too many. This is how a mafia romance should be executed. The suspense and action drama was going on side by side and it enhanced the intensity of the romance. The romance..oh my crazy heart..the romance was INSANE. I felt like the author tasered me repeatedly with her words. I am stunned. I am feeling wild. Just too much feelings to express in words. I lived for the angst, the heartbreak, the too intense moments and the unreal level of connection between them. I died for the unashamedly sexy moments and the heartstopping twists. I went through an emotional wringer and I am gone for this couple.Let's talk about Kage. I never hide my weakness alphas but this man is feeding my obsession in whole another way. He is cruel to his enemies, extremely possessive with Nat and absolutely unapologetically filthy dirty in bed. My heart doesn't know which way to go. Do I swoon over his crooked sweet gestures? Do I sigh when he declares his love in those intense words? Or do I fight the goosebumps and pounding hearts when he unleashes his controlled animalistic passion? Do I feel afraid or get dangerously turned on when he shows his violent merciless Russian Mafia king side? I SAY YES TO EVERYTHING. Kage is THE alphahero book boyfriend of the year.And the dark king deserves a queen like Nat. Who is this woman? She has been beaten down by life way too many times. And still she dares to love. She is such a witty, sassy, colourful and bright soul! She didn't back down when Kage warned about his volatile world and his darkest sins. She embraced the devil. She risked her stable life because she wanted to feel and live. And her sense of humor is on point. Seriously she made me laugh at the most inappropriate and tensed moments. She is bold and courageous and a real spitfire. She has been deceived, betrayed and threatened. And she faced it all. She didn't let Kage control her and she fought all the way till she got what their hearts wanted. They are an imperfect match that makes all the sense in universe.If you want one angsty mafia romance recommendation from me, Ruthless Creatures by J.T. Geissinger will be right at the top. I still cannot believe the author dragged me through this emotional hell and action packed rollercoaster. But it was so worth it.I reviewed an early copy voluntarily

So good and delicious!!
I just read all 4 Queens and Monster's books - I couldn't put my kindle down! Such great characters and the heat - whew! Loved the humor and the believability of the conversations. Twists were great and all of the overlaps in the stories were so smooth.

Hot read
Do you want mystery?A little bit of angst?A hot mafia guy?A spicy smut?YOU FOUND IT!Natalie is a school teacher that has to live with the constant pain of not knowing what happened to her beloved fiancé. David vanished out of thin air on the day of their wedding leaving no clue of what could have happened to him... And five years after, Natalie still hadn't gotten over the heartbreak.Well, until a mysterious guy shows up in town. Kage is sketchy, but he has this magnetic energy that pulls Natalie closer. She doesn't know how to explain that, he also doesn't know why, but walking away isn't something he's willing to do.As the book goes, Kage shows his amazing and teddy-bear-ish personality (which I loved with all my heart) while Natalie is being dragged to this whole dangerous and different world she never knew and the mystery that haunts her existence begins to unravel itself.It's my first book by J.T. Geissinger and I couldn't be happier. She definitely knows how to create a chemistry between two characters. And boy, Kage and Natalie's chemistry is EXPLOSIVE.For more reviews, follow @thatbrazilianreader on Instagram.

Slick. Effective. Well written
A sassy heroine meets the big bad wolf, and the sparks start flying. In Ruthlesw Creatures, J.T. Geissinger built a dangerous mafia world I am very eager to explore a bit (lot) more.The dark tone, the thrilling and unique storyline had me hooked from the start. I wanted to know more, I laughed out loud at the smart comments and the quirkiness of the heroine. Oh the banter! Did I tell you how hot it was, too? Because it sure was. The author has a way with words!Towards the end, my mind wandered some because the plot took me into a direction I didn't care much about. That being said, I recommend it to readers who are looking for a very entertaining mafia story. Slick and easy to read. Enjoy!

Oh my Kage 😍
4.5OMG KAGE!!This man and his damn words😍🔥😭🤩I'm madly in love with him!!But the best thing is i'm in love with Natalie too!! Her brutal sense of humor killed me 🤩😂Truth to be told the plot isn’t so innovative or surprising.I mean you can figure out pretty easily how everything unfolds, but you still keep reading, you are still obsessed with the story because the characters are freaking amazing!Their chemestry, their bond is swoony material 😍😍I've highlighted so many quotes, I lost count of it.There is something so fascinating about a mad man who's deeply, madly in love with a woman, who is completely devoted to her....and Kage is one of the best 😍Yeah, I got it really bad 😂😂The thing I enjoyed the most about this book tho is the humor that lighten the darkness of the mafia' trope. It made the reading even more entertaining.Definitely a great start for a series i hope gonna give me a really good time.
