New York Ruthless

A Ryan Restraint

Rate this book
When Jessie goes for her regular gym session with Conor and he decides to shake things up with a little boxing, things get way more heated than either of them expected. Who will come out on top?

This is a super spicy short story connected to the New York Ruthless series. It contains zero plot and a whole lot of steam, and so can be enjoyed without having read the series if you're looking for a quick read.

Conor is KING!

Sadie absolutely brought the big guns for Conor's short story!

There are things this man does the likes of which the Ryan's have previously not unleashed on us.

I waited for Conor's short and he was well worth the wait! Sadie does it again! 🤤

If you like the Ryan series then this extended hot, sweaty, spice scene will be right up your alley. There is no plot and to call this a novella or short story is an exaggeration. It is purely a spicy scene between characters that is fun to read and only takes a few minutes to complete, yet will get your blood pumping and excitement brewing if you are into a steamy scene.

Well damn, Sadie I love me some Ryan brothers and this one features a very hot Connor Ryan. This book is all his and damn if it wasn't all kinds of perfect.

This is a really quick read and it's all Connor and Jessie in one very hot, very dirty workout.

If you're looking for any kind of deep story or danger this one has none of that. It's simply a moment between husband and wife and it was all kinds of panty-melting good.

Don't stop writing these Sadie because I don't think I'll ever get enough of the boys and Jessie.

Jessie usually works out with Connor and Mikey but today it's only Connor. She thinks maybe it can be a different workout than normal but Connor intends to keep Jessie on task.

Jessie can't help but want to get Connor to focus on her more than the workout.
"You’re my husband, and I’m pretty sure gawking at your hotness whenever the hell I want to was one of our marriage vows.”

While Connor tries to keep Jessie on task she makes sure to use all of her assets to get Connor to cave, even bringing the big guy to his knees. She may regret that though because when Connor is through with her he'll have used all of his skills to give Jessie one hell of a workout.
“Oh, I’m gonna work you out, angel. By the time I’m done with you, you will ache in every single part of your body.”

Happy Reading.

I’d happily go a few rounds with Conor Ryan!

Oh my gosh… every one of these little short stories feeds my insatiable appetite for everything that is the gorgeous Ryan brothers. This one features one of my fave brothers, incredibly delicious Conor. I love them all, but there’s something about Conor’s love for Jessie that is just so palpable and special. You feel that chemistry. That intense connection between them and he absolutely worships her. On his hands and knees… literally worships the ground she walks.

Yet another triumph from the brilliant Sadie Kincaid. Amazing!!

A Ryan Restraint was a short story that followed the New York Ruthless series about the four Ryan brothers and their shared wife Jessie.
There wasn't much to this story, so the review will be short too. Jessie usually has a workout with two of her husbands in their home gym, but not on this occasion. When there was only one husband present, things quickly turned hot and spicy. Once the spice was done in the gym, it continued on into their home. See? Not much there. However, it got a two-star rating for the "victory" Jessie had over Conor in the gym.

Conor Ryan is hands down my favorite Ryan. He has been since the very first scene with him in the very first Ryan book. But between this scene in gym and the chair scene in book 5... there is nothing Conor Ryan could do that is wrong. Possessive- 100%. Feral- 100%. But the passion and love this man exudes.... wwwhhheeewww. If someone asked me how to be an possessive alpha man and still love his partner with all the respect imaginable Conor Ryan would be exhibit A.

the Ryan’s are so amazing

These short stories that continue on the universe for Jessie Ryan and her men are amazing. I get so invested with characters and when the books are over even with good endings I miss them. Sadie Kincaid making these short stories is everything to readers who want more of their lives after things have slowed down and they all got the HEA we all love!!! Hope there are more to come.

Every time a short story comes out, I am beyond excitement
if you enjoyed the Ryans then the short stories are like a gift sent from heaven, I get so invested in all the characters and the endings every time. 
And of course with all the endings come the tears because it's over.

Sadie Kincaid will always be an angel in my eyes for these short stories alone.
Hope there are more coming.

The entire "New York Ruthless" series is delicious! It was my first exposure to reverse harem romance and I loved the story. The plot was great and kept me wanting more, book after book. The spice was... holy moly. My eyes are open. I had no idea... thank you Sadie Kincaid for bringing these characters to life.

Ryans

She has such a wonderful relationship with all of them!! I just hate for the story to come to a end... I just want more of them!! I also love her and Donor together.. I feel like that if she was to really marry one of them it would be Conor... He adores her so much, they really have a special bond....

F ME. If I ever needed the inspiration to get to the gym, Conor Ryan would have me sprinting through the doors. From day 1 Conor was incredible. Even after 5 books and all the shorts he still surprises me and has me mesmerised. Sadie Kincaid you're the best! Keep them coming!

Is it okay to give 5 stars to something that’s only 24 pages long? IDGAF this is Sadie Kincaid and her Ryan men. They get all the stars! Plus, it has my favorite dirty line in it… mmmm love me some Conor Ryan 🔥

Spicy 🔥🔥

Conor, surprised me the most out of the Ryan brothers. He loves with his all and you can see it and I like that part. I love how she is different and also the same with each brother it really makes their relationship unique.

Just an extended sex scene.

No plot. Doesn’t advance us in the timeline like the Halloween and Christmas and new year shorts.

It was good but nothing different than we’ve already seen, except this was in the gym where we haven’t really had a sex scene before.

Ryan Restraint

I’m not really sure the point of these little short stories other than to add another steamy scene. I would love to have more plot and to learn more about the characters lives.

🌟: 5/5
🌶️: 6/5

Listen. All spice, no plot. Don’t open this book expecting anything other than getting turned on. This book is a boxing scene filled with some out of this world detail. I read this in public and had the hardest time keeping a straight face. So um, yea…don’t expect any plot. Kk, bye!

A filthy fight

I love that each of these novellas focus on Jessie with one brother or the twins. It gives a little more of their individual relationships. This one was definitely fun. A good workout in more ways than one with Connor Ryan 🌶️🌶️🌶️

I never thought I would consider “Mafia Fluff” as a genre, but if you just need a burst of spice without the anxiety of the full plot and story… (or if you just want a glimpse of the love after the HEA) this is a great little story to meet those needs.
