Link: Ruthless Bastards
Lincoln “Link” Frost, VP of the Ruthless Bastards, lives his life upholding two things. His Club and his family. Now they are both in jeopardy. His Club is taking hits from an unknown source and his little brother is in jail. Now Whisk and Addy are asking him to trust an outsider, can he do it, give up control? Or will it all blow up in all their faces.
Carrington Worthington ran away from Defiance, Kentucky as fast as she could. She thought life would be fulfilling away from her parent’s influence not to mention their sins. But the grass wasn’t as green on the other side, she was successful but lonely. She missed her best friend and the people she held dear. All it took was one call from Addy and she jumped on a plane to Defiance leaving everything else behind. It was supposed to be a quick trip in turned into much more.
Link and Carri are drawn together but fight against that draw with everything they have. Can two stubborn bull-headed people get it together enough to realize what they have found might be worth everything. Can they trust each other and find a way to move on together or is this just not meant to be? Find out with the next installment of the RBMC!

I need more RBMC Chelsea! ❤
And the plot thickens with Link and Carri's story! Wow what and intense and suspenseful read. Not to mention how hot the chemistry between them is. The sparks between them and their banter was just perfection. They were both nicely written and perfectly matched. I love how Chelsea writes her badass heroines who don't take crap from no one, and Carrington was no exception. She has probably been one of the stronger personalities to have to deal with an ass like Link. But as much of a jerk that he is you can't help but fall for him on this book. I love redeemable aholes, and Link didn't disappoint. On top of having an amazing story, that hot as hell cover just completed my whole vision of him.
In book 3 of the Ruthless Bastards MC, Carri is one kickass lawyer coming back to her hometown to help a friend out of a bind. She was the last person Link expected to be picking up at the airport right before his brother's hearing. Things are alot shadier that anyone thought and the MC is their major target. Now that Carri is getting involved, curiosity getting the best of her, she's got a target on her back as well. So many secrets will be uncovered, true feelings will come to light, and give you one emotional roller-coaster in the same read.
I have loved this series from the beginning and can't get enough. These books just keep getting better and better. Since Whiskey, Brass' line regarding "quality p" is something that will stay with me for a long time, laughing to myself at the MC clown. These characters just make you want to know them all. This book like the others are written in dual POV, which I love. Link and Carri get their own HEA, but the Ruthless Bastards MC's story is far from over. I for one can't wait to see who's book Chelsea will give us next. Not only is this book a must read, but should 1click the whole series.

This series by Chelsea Handcock has been great. Personally, I like this one the best so far. Link and Carrie are both stubborn and pig headed but you can tell the attraction is there. With things up in the air with the Club and in his personal life, will Link allow Carrie to help him out? Carrie left town as soon as she could but came back to help her friend! You can feel the emotions running between the main characters and it draws you in. Once you start this book, it will be hard to put it down. Loved seeing the characters from the past books and will be eagerly waiting for the next book in this series!!

This is my favorite of the series. Lincoln “Link” Frost is the oldest of his 3 brother’s Whiskey and Talon. Talon is in jail on trumped up charges and the RBMC needs a lawyer to get him out. So in comes Carrington Worthington a lawyer who does not like Link much...so she pulls out the trump card gets Talon out of jail and stirs up the pot. She didn’t know it at the time but it all ties in with what Regan is working on. Link helps her with it and she finds out more information on her father too. Carri wants to love Link and needs to trust him and her him but they need to help each other too.

I love these books, each time I think I found my favorite another comes out. Link has been hard to deal with all along but it's the only way he knows how to handle things. This man doesn't do flowery words and he sure won't hold back on anyone. Carrie is the perfect woman to bring out the depth of his emotions. She is stubborn, smart, sexy and loyal, not a woman easily ignored. This book gives more insight on the secrets the Ruthless Bastards are keeping. I highly recommend!

I liked our heroine and the author's heroes are all assholes.
December 15, 2017
Link had to become a man before he was through childhood. All he has ever cared about was taking care of those closest to him....does he always get it right? Of course not. Carri turned down a date with Link back in high school even though she has always been attracted to him...why?!? hint- you'll find out during the story.
Carri left Defiance and really had no interest in coming back She is estranged from her parents and wants to keep it that way. When she is manipulated into returning, she realizes her life isn't all she thought it was.
Link just wants Carri out of town and goes about it by being a horrible person to her, but he has his reasons. Can these two ever meet in the middle? Will we find out who is behind the trouble plaguing the MC?

Love them Frost boys
Wow I can say loved this one too! Maybe not so much the ending only because I wanted it to go a little bit more, however how can you not love a HEA. Link is a headstrong alpha who has taken adult responsibilities on at an early age which carries on into adulthood. Carrington is a sassy lawyer who was the only one to ever tell Link no. He has carried that with him for years. As the story unfolds our her and heroine spark and they can either go up in flames or throw up some amazing stars that will withstand the hell they find themselves in. Thanks for another fantastic story!!

I was provided an arc for an honest review.
Chelsea Hancock is a new author to me, but she kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to the end.
Link: Ruthless Bastard is full of suspense, action and excitment.
This book is well written, I was able to connect with the characters and the story line. I will be purchasing the first two books, and look forward to reading more books by Chelsea Hancock. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.
I would definitely recommend this book to all my fellow readers

Love Chelsea Handcock's Ruthless bastards series. Wasn't too sure about a Link though. He'd not behaved well in the previous books. I couldn't have been more wrong. He blew me away. Watching him learn to let go control and trust a woman who left town to avoid the life her parents planned for her showed him in a new light. He's one of my favorites now. The story unfolded beautifully, and he characters drew me in. This is one not to miss.

Better and better!
I started with Whiskey and had a hard time at first with the authors writing style. However, I was digging the characters and the story line really sucked me in. Next thing I knew I had finished Tank and now, Link. The authors voice gets better and better with each book and now I'm off to start number 4, Crank! Here's to hoping Brass, Talon and Jinx have their own stories coming SOON!

Link will do anything to keep his blood brothers safe. Even trust someone he doesn't know or does he? Carri ran away from her home town years ago to escape the evil of her parents. When thrown together they both fight yheir feelings, when danger takes his girl away Link will stop at nothing to get her back where she belongs

Link is in an MC. He took care of his younger brothers. They are all in the RBMC. Carrington is Addy's best friend, she is also a lawyer. What happens when she is hired to help Links younger brother? This book shows exactly how Link is and was misunderstood in previous books.

Link was an asshole to Carri. When the book begins he's getting a bj from an ow. He says it's just business because she gives them intel. So looks like he shores himself out for his club. Anyway we find out that he asked Carri out in high school she said no which you learn why later. He was mean to her. She was manipulated into coming back home to help put away her dad.

Link & Carrie - out of the three I have read in this series I like this one the most. I felt there was more of a story here and you get a nice recap on the others in the series, which kind of satisfies the need to know how they are doing.
To me, this book was a little better at pulling you in and think this series gets better with each book. There is a storyline running through all three books so far about the MC. The RBMC has some issues that have yet to be resolved or figured out altogether.
The guys have club business and also trying to figure out their own business, there is love, there is drama, there are moments where you laugh, where you want to hurt someone and those moments were you are happy they finally see what is right in the face.

Loved it
The more I learn about Link the more I love this man. He truly cares for those around and weather it's right of wrong at the time he does everything in his power to protect them. Carrington is the women who will bring him to his knee and give him them love he deserves. I laughed, I said oh crap a lot. This series has been amazing. The love these men have for their women is absolutely wonderful and I love that I get a bit back story behind the couple from their childhood. I can't wait to dive into the next book.

I hated this man to the point I wanted to punch in the gut until he doubled over and knee him in the face at first. The author sure described him as someone I despised, yet, she captured his soul forcing me to understand his story. Bravo! I won’t lie, it took a hot moment for me to get past his attitude to see his beautiful loving side. From the moment I met Carri I wanted her to win and prove him wrong at every step. Learning her background might have helped Link win me over, but they work together perfectly. A must read, but start from the beginning to understand all of the story.

Link
I really don't think they figured out the mastermind behind the plot to get rid of them. These are truly some spectacular revelations. Special Ops is some big time shit and Link and the boys are extra special.

5 Stars for the 3rd book in this series. I absolutely cannot stop reading this series until I've read every book. What more can you ask for Love, Mystery and MC.

Repeat
This is the third book in a row in this series where the H and h had some type of connection in high school. Really? Also, this author needs a new book editor.

I now understand why he is the way he is. Another really good story

So many great things going on in this book but didn’t pan out completely for me. I felt like the couple got the short end of the stick. I wanted to see more of their relationship and I wasn’t happy with the quick ending. Too many things were left unsaid for the information we learned.
I don’t like how Talon disappears in the book either.
Oh! And I didn’t like the cover model- as he didn’t match up to me.
The editing is better, but still mixing up character names in this series is an annoying thing for me.

#LinkAndCarrie
Now I don't know if I still like Link just because of what he did to Whiskey and Addy but the so know how to redeem himself in my eyes, this was a really good read and I love that Carrie don't put up with his jerky ways🤣🤣🤣they definitely belonged with each other.

April 25, 2018I hate to say it but.......this is my favorite so far!!
Link was a total jerkwad in the first two books and I had my doubts about him but oh my, he blew me away! He locked on to Carri from the beginning and never let go! Carrington only came home to help out her friends, never expected to have a reason to want to stay! Her family life has been less then stellar.
Will these two stubborn people be able to make a relationship work? Will the secrets, lies and danger keep them apart? I just know I'm completely hooked on this series and eagerly await each new addition!
And now the bad part, I have to wait for more!!
