READY TO BINGE? This is the complete AMAZON BESTSELLING SERIES, Vincent and Eve
Rising All I want is to leave my crime-ridden shadow of a home in New York City. I’ve done everything I can to keep my head down and focus on my studies. College is my only goal; love has never been on the map…
That is, until my sister brings me to an underground fight, where I meet a gorgeous and mysterious man: Vincent.
He is the ghost in my shadows, showing up to feed me pieces of his upper-crust life, then evaporating into darkness until his next visit. I’m falling hard and fast. How can I trust him amidst the depth of his secrets?
Vincent may be even more dangerous than the dark world I’m trying to escape.
Reckoning Vincent: Forgetting about Eve was the plan. Finding her at a party on my college campus was the last thing I expected.
My world has turned into a house of cards, where one wrong move can send it all crashing down…and us with it.
Eve: Finally at a prestigious university—and on the path to living my dreams—I’ve left the darkness of the Blue Houses behind. Still, a whole new host of problems await me.
Vincent is the king of the school. I thought I wanted to know what he was hiding, but unlocking his biggest secret leads me into entirely new territory laced with danger and lust...one I’m not sure I’ll survive.
Redemption Vincent Through every drop of blood I spilled, I lost a piece of my soul. I’ve sacrificed seven long years and the woman of my life for the Family. But I’m not done fighting—not yet.
Eve is still out there. I will stop at nothing to get her back.
Eve After having my heart torn out by the son of the biggest crime family in New York, I was forced to start over in California. With three thousand miles between me and my past, life is finally set on cruise control.

I could always go for one more book on Eve and Vincent with children I enjoyed it that much
I always like books that could be based on a true story of love and redemption. Vincent a job son who falls in love and wants out of the family. Eve a girl from the worst part of N.Y. Must claw her way out of the gutter. She's tough and smart and thanks to her sister and some friends she gets out alive and make a good life for herself. Vincent falls for little Eve and they go through hell to end up together. I could of done with a later in life epilogue with children and who do they look like.
The story between Vincent and Eve begins when Vincent is a junior is college and Eve is an 18 year old senior in high school. Both came from opposite sides of NYC and have an undeniable connection they cannot resist. The story takes you through the highs and lows of both their lives and relationships and many years. You can’t help but feel every emotion they go through during this story. I could not put this trilogy down because I had to know what would happen next. These two have a love that shows how strong true love really is.
All I Can Say Is....THIS SERIES IS AN UNFORGETTABLE MUST READ!!!!
I read these books as they released, so here are my reviews for each:
RISING 5 I CAN'T Believe THIS Is A Debut Novel Stars!!!
I am just COMPLETELY in AWE of this author...Jessica Ruben is a BRILLIANT star shining in the Indie author sky!!! This book TOTALLY BLEW. ME. AWAY!!! Jessica drew me in from the first chapter, evoking sooooo many emotions throughout this MAGNIFICENT read...everything from sympathy to outrage, from fear to lust, from shock to heart-shattering angst!
I fell in love with Eve! Sweet and innocent in some ways, yet wise-beyond-her-years in others. She wants nothing more than to bust out of the "projects" and go to college and study to become a lawyer to make a better life for herself! The road to getting there is fraught with danger and obstacles...will Eve live long enough to realize her dreams? As for Vincent...gorgeous, mysterious, ALPHA-TO-THE-MAX, very closed off and self-contained. Until he meets Eve and fate has her way with them!
I LOVED everything about this book....other than that it ended and I have to wait for the NEXT one!!! You MUST read this ENTHRALLING, RIVETING, INSANELY good book!!! It's going up on my TOP reads of 2018!!! I simply can't WAIT to see where Ms Ruben will take this CAPTIVATING story in the future!
RECKONING ALL THE STARS!!!!
HOLY CRAP ON A CRACKER!!! I thought Rising (Vincent & Eve #1) was a MONSTER of a debut novel from Jessica Ruben, but Reckoning??!! I'm feeling DESTROYED, just like Eve, after all that went down in this STUNNING 2nd book in a series that I'm POSITIVE will be in my TOP 5 series' reads OF ALL TIME!!!
The FEELS, the ANGST, the DRAMA, the INCREDIBLE chemistry between Vincent and Eve, the HEART-CRUSHING circumstances that Eve finds herself in....All I can say is "Bring on Redemption NOW!!!! I NEED to find out what happens!!!" Do yourself a favor and start this series NOW!!! You can thank me later!
REDEMPTION 6 I DON'T WANT THIS RIDE TO BE OVER Stars!!!
What a RIDE this completely RIVETING, INTOXICATING series has been! Jessica Ruben's light is shining so brightly, it's almost BLINDING!!!
First there was Rising, which I have to say was SHOCKINGLY good! It CONSUMED me! I was chomping at the bit to get my hands on Reckoning, book 2 in the series, to find out what would become of Vincent & Eve...and now, after finishing the final book in the series, I sit in COMPLETE and UTTER AWE at the author who has become one of my ALL-TIME TOP Unicorn authors!!! Ms Ruben TOTALLY BLEW ME AWAY with the conclusion to this MUST READ series that will stay with me forever!!!
There were sooooo many twists and turns in this book, I felt like I needed a seat belt to hold me in place! At times I wasn't sure if my heart could take the angst and it felt like it was being ripped into a million tiny pieces! Vincent & Eve's love story (don't be fooled into thinking this is ANYTHING but a love story of EPIC proportions!!!) is raw and heart-achingly beautiful. These two very damaged characters somehow find the inner strength and fortitude to overcome some TERRIFYING obstacles and find the love that each so very richly deserve!
I LOVED every minute of this book and this series down to my very SOUL!!! I can't recommend it HIGHLY ENOUGH!!! But, fair warning; you are gonna need COPIOUS amounts of wine (or your beverage of choice), tissues and MAYBE a direct line to a psychiatrist (or a bestie that you can rant to)....and it's worth EVERY second of TORTURE Ms Ruben puts you through in the end!
Absolute perfection!! This series is by far my most favorite of 2019 and I’m so sad it’s over, I wish it would keep going. I absolutely love these two! I almost cried, I felt like I got kicked in the stomach, I was so happy, excited, sad, scared and all the emotions at once. Vincent and Eve’s love story is real, raw, emotional and completely perfect! Janelle is the greatest, Lauren quickly became a favorite and Slade I cant wait to read about. I wish I would’ve found out more about Daniela but also much happened to the ones that needed it and everything fell right in to place. Ups, downs, pains, heartbreaks, everything! So well done!! Now I’m off to read about Slade! Read this series, you won’t be disappointed!!!! This was my first book/series read by this author and I’m so glad I did!!!
How is it possible that this series has very little reviews?! I was hooked on this book from beginning to end. It has everything... suspense, drama, violence, love...but the type of romance that doesn't have you rolling your eyes. I was swooning over Vincent. Everything he said and did had me melting! This was definitely one my top reads this year! I'm on a total Vincent and Eve high right now. There were times I stayed up till 2am binge reading this book, I couldn't put it down! I've read some reviews on Eve being weak but trust me it gets better in the last series. I don't even know how I'm going to find another book that tops this. I just want to shout from the rooftops....READ this book bow! I just can't believe it's not on audio. Why is it not on audio?! I'm definitely putting Ruben on my favorite authors list.
WOW! I absolutely loved this series. These books had every feeling imaginable. Each book ended with me itching to find out what happens next. I thankfully just came across these books recently so did not have to wait for the next book. I read all 3 books in 2 days! I could not put them down. The love story was absolutely beautiful and you instantly fall in love with Vincent. This book had me laughing and crying. I could not put them down. Reckoning was my favourite out of the 3 books. I actually felt my heart break for Eve and everything she had to go through. I would love for there to be another book in the series!! So happy I came across this series. Could not recommend enough!
Loved this series, Vincent and Eve's story is a page turner, Mafia, poverty , and the wills to be better! Eve did cry a lot but then some people do. Lol. Jessica Ruben has done a fantastic job with her first books, great characters ,good storyline , sexey, and the editing was wonderful! Each book has been better than the last! Keep up the good work. ....pat....
I never normally leave reviews, but the complete series of Vincent & Eve was a fantastic read. Loved it and couldn't put it down. I usually get a bit fed up when the story goes on and on to two, three books but NOT this series. Amazing, brilliant fell in love with eve & Vincent. Downloading Slade and Laurens story now. Can't wait for more books by this author. Thank you
Quite simply the best series I’ve read in a long time. Tight yet almost lyrical prose and compelling characters all wrapped up in a epic tale of love and overcoming hardship (in its many disguises).
I love it. I read the 3 books in 3 days. See the history between Eve and Vincent was a amazing experience. Follow then in the beginning of the relationship and see how they grown with the odds of life. They world collide and it couldn't be better. ❤️❤️❤️
Love this series of Vincent and eve I even brought it in paperback for my lovely bookshelf of all my favourite books. Cant wait to read more from you jessica ruben
Good girl bad boy. She is from the wrong side of the tracks vs the boy man who has everything at his disposal. The love of your life that you know you are destined to have but everything happens to keep you apart. I was literally drawn in and held captive from the very beginning. I read this in like 4 days. Pretty sure I carried every emotion with me through these books. I know that Eve rises like a Phoenix to make her life better but good Lord...I am pretty sure I needed therapy after some of the heartbreak she went through. I do not believe in destiny or fate but I love reading about it. It is beautifully written and I could not tell anyone not to read this. I would love to see this turned into a movie. Not gonna lie. I had to get a beer or two to get me through some of the highs and lows in this book. I would love to give more about this book and its characters but if I did you wouldn't want to sit and read it like I did. You have to read this book. It is probably one of the most perfectly written books I have read in a while...and believe me I read ALOT!
Can definitely give Kudos to Jessica Ruben on this one. Will always and forever keep this author and her books by my side.
Vincent and Eve -The Complete series just one word WOW!!
I was blown away by these books, this is the first time I am reading Jessica Ruben and I was like no I need more.
Vincent what a man he was sexy, strong, loving he is the type of man girls dream about. I love how Vincent was a caring guy to Eve as soon as he saw her he just wanted to protect her from the s**t world they live in, he shows Eve thing that she never thought she would ever see.
Eve is a beautiful, smart, caring girl who meets bad boy Vincent they are attracted to each other at first sight as soon as they meet you can feel the heat, the sexual tension between them. Vincent and Eve are so alike but from totally different worlds.
Within these books you can feel the love, the heartbreak, the lust, I'm not much of a crier but I almost cried, my own heart broke for Eve.
Vincent and Eve are amazing to each other no matter how much hurt and pain they have together they always seem to move forward from it all, it was like that they where made for each other.
These books are amazing I would differently recommended them, I loved every minute of it, was a book I couldn't put down.
Great story! It had all the parts of a Mafia tale with a sprinkle of bad MC and a love that defied the odds. The narcissistic parents did not disappoint, the heroes from the shadows prevailed the supportive friends & siblings were fallible but wrought with good intentions and the side characters who brought others down just so they could rise were on par. Vincent was the big Alpha male with a protective streak and a heart of gold that only beat for Eve. Eve was the tiny curvy innocent one with brains to match. She was book and street smart and had enough of the right people in her corner to help her survive.
This was not a wild ride but a story that we can relate to while yearning for that HEA all while hoping Eve sets herself free and excels beyond her wildest dreams. I lived this journey with them and my heart broke with them. In the end I rejoiced with them as well.
Get the complete series and save yourself the hassle of downloading each one separately. You will want to read on.
I was not surprised to find this was the debut series for this author. It read like a newbie, but I still enjoyed it. I have read a number of her other books so expected to enjoy it. While I had trouble with how naive Eve was, she grew on me. Eve has a troubled home life and I just didn’t buy how meek she was. Vincent was a jackass in different moments but he loved Eve. I enjoyed his character development throughout the trilogy. There was lots of delicious chemistry between them and so much heat. If you love a novel with more than just relationship drama then you will enjoy the side story. I wondered to the end how it would all play out. While I guessed the eventual ending, there were plenty of twists and turns along the way which kept me interested. I read the three books of Vincent & Eve in one weekend. I’m looking forward to the follow up with Slade’s book.
First book I have read by this author! It was such a great read! Quick and I couldn’t put it down. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because I felt like Eve cried in every chapter which becoming very annoying to me. The book gave so much detail and was a page turner! I loved how much Vincent loved Eve. I loved the suspense that kept me on the edge of my seat! You can’t go wrong with this read! I loved how Eve overcame her circumstances and powered through the pain, but please stop crying! Emotion are tears are okay but after you read it you will know what I am talking about. Still I would highly suggest giving this trilogy a try! It’s addictive!
I thoroughly enjoyed this complete series of Vincent and Eve. A different take on the Mafia story, and a welcome one. They are terrific characters and perfect for each other. There was enough angst to keep the heartstrings pulled taut but not too much where your heart actually hurts and you feel stressed reading it! The supporting characters were great too and Eve’s sister Janelle is just the best. An amazing woman who really did look out for her baby sister at every stage in her life. This is my first book/s from this author and I 100% recommend it.
5 stars all day long. This is my first read by this author and certainly won't be the last. Eve and Vincent. What a story. Trailer trash girl, Prince to the Mafia throne. The story begins in high school and leads all the way to ........ A must read. Has it all. The only criticism I have is that I'm finished. Their story is beautifully written. Fantastic characters. Gripping plot Kept me hooked right till the end.
I read all three in order. A few times I had to close my kindle and do something else. The emotions were getting to me..I felt for Eve so much but Vincent's pain got to me. The world he lived in so dark till Eve. She was a fantastic character and just what Vincent needed but she needed him just as much. This is a wonderful story and I am sooooo glad I read it. What a emotional ride...❤❤❤❤❤
Two people meeting in life like fate. The male and female characters. They share a bond. They were attracted to one another but life and people in their lives , made their relationship, partnership difficult but their love was pure and stronger ,worth the fight. This is a beautiful sexy romantic story of Vincent and Eve.
Loved the full series. Vincent and Eve's journey young love to hardship. They beat the odds. They both loved strong and suffered just the same. Both came from different worlds but they got each other. Both had F'd parents. So many emotions and the challenges they endured. Could not stop reading. Great series. True love never dies. Thank you Jessica.
I could not put this book down. I feel like I went through an emotional roller coaster with a happy ending at the end. There was many laughs/tears/and anger throughout the book. Amazing writing
Oh my God! Now this is the kind of book that I have been craving for. A strong, confident and powerful man who I can literally feel through this book. I need more books like this! Love it!
I totally loved this series from start to finish. It had everything, great characters, fantastic story that really has you gripped I couldn't put it down. Definitely recommend 🙌
