Ruthless Commander

by A K Rose

I wasn't meant to have her...to touch her. Not with these bloodied hands. She was forbidden to me, and the only woman I wanted. They call me the Commander. But that wasn't always who I was. I was once more than the killer they turned me into. I once loved a woman. One who was off limits...So I turned my back on her. I broke her heart...and left it shattered. Until our island came under attack. They came to kill the Cosa Nostra heirs. But they'll find me instead. Xael Davies is wild and ruthless. A hellcat armed with a foul mouth and an attitude.But that's all a lie. I know her... the real her. The woman she keeps hidden. The one who let me in, until I ruined it all. Now she needs me to find her...to protect her. And when the dust is settled and I'm bathed in their blood. I'll fight to do the one thing I should've done before. Fight to keep her. But am I too late? Have I gone too far? Can this cold heart of mine find life once more. Can she ever trust me after what I've done. Or have I finally become the monster unable to love again...

Ugh, I wanted to like this I rlly rlly did but idk man. Literally so much potential with these characters but the pace was so wrong and I honestly think I just did not enjoy the writing of this series at all. I feel like everything was so rushed and I absolutely despise the italics, it literally makes everything so cringe. Really disappointed because Mateo was probably my favourite after Lazarus and when I read the first 20 pages I was so invested. Kinda just went shut from there.

Commando hasn't had easy life and love when he finally eventually let's Xael in to be his.
Enjoyed the Institute series though it is full on at times.
Definitely make sure to read the other books in series.
