In the second book of the Ruthless Boy series, Elise needs to guard her heart as she maybe falling for a killer;
I really appreciated that Peckham and Valenti did not waste any time between book one and book two. I enjoy that we jump right back into the story, world and relationship and we don't need figure out if anything has happened between the books.
I appreciate that Elise knows what she wants out of her relationship life and she does not make it a secret to the men in this book. It is them that have more of a problem with it than her and you can't fault the way that she thinks based upon her past and what happened with her mom. I will say that it does seem that Elise, seems to forget why she is at the school for quite a bit of the book and honestly I do too sometimes, as that plot seems secondary until we get Gareth's POV. I love the glimpses of the school and people that Gareth interacts with and now Elise does too. I really want to know what changed in his and Cindy Lou’s relationship.
Ryder is still my favourite and I love his secret love of the Lion King and every time he brings it up around Leon, I found myself at least smiling if not laughing as well. And also who does not love the Lion King and the trauma it caused all of us as kids.
Where this book struggles is really Elise trying to find out who murdered her brother and why. While we get a bit of insight, the majority of the book is about Elise getting closer to the guys around her and really treading the line with them, especially Ryder and Dante. I hope the next book in the series has more of the mystery aspect to it, as that plot point only seems like a tease right now.
I’m enjoying this series so far. I know when I am reading the books I’m Turing the pages as fast as I can to see where Peckham and Valenti are going to take the relationships, I just want a bit more from to murder plot.
Enjoy!!!!!
