Sweet Severity

Ruthless Obsession, Book 7

De: Zoe Blake

Narrado por: Tor Thom, Lisa Zimmerman

Had she crashed into any other man's car, she could have walked away—but she hit mine.

Upon seeing the bruises on her wrist, I struggled to contain my rage. Despite her objections, I refused to allow her to leave. Whoever hurt this innocent beauty would pay dearly.

As a Russian Mafia crime boss who owns Chicago's most elite gambling club, I have very creative and painful methods of exacting revenge.

She seems too young and naive to be out on her own in such a dangerous world. Needing a nanny, I decided to claim her for the role.

She might resist my severe, domineering discipline, but I won't give her a choice in the matter. She needs a protector, and I'd be damned if it were anyone but me.

Resisting the urge to claim her will test all my restraint. It's a battle I'm bound to lose.

With each day, my obsession and jealousy intensify. It's only a matter of time before my control snaps... and I make her mine.

Mine.

Sweet Severity continues the steamy, enemies-to-lovers drama featuring the domineering Russian Mafia men of Zoe Blake's Ruthless Obsession series. This is the seventh novel and part of a new trilogy in the Ruthless Obsession series. It is a standalone intended for mature listeners.

The female narrator

Ugh the female voice kept saying Bebe which sounded like Moira Rose and was so annoying. It was off putting. I don’t have the physical book so maybe I’m the wrong one but the male voice kept saying “BB” which sounded better and more appropriate for the book.

Chemistry is good and

Liked the story but the female narrator made it hard to listen to. Liked the other female narrator from the earlier books.

Bossy controlling tattooed Russian man!

I love this series!! Tor Tom is the most sexy narrator and does a fantastic job! I can’t get enough of these dominant, controlling and take charge men that have the softest spots for their women!

Loved it

I truly love these book series and the characters that play the roles thank you on to my next book. However I do feel slides on the epilogue.

Story was well written.

Love the narrators! Another top notch story by Zoe Blake!! Looking forward to the next chapter of the series!

Love the characters

I enjoy the weaving of previous characters into the storyline. This one wasn’t my favorite however I can’t wait for another book… PLEASE!

Great addition to the series.

I really liked Mac and Bebe. The story was good but I would have liked a little more spice and maybe a little more drama with the brother, the officers wanting their money, and Mac dealing with them. Narrators were great, though I prefer Lauren Sweet’s rendition of the Russian accent better, especially the male part. No shade to Lisa Zimmerman, she did her part well and I would listen to her again, for sure. I just prefer Lauren for this series.Tor Thom is always awesome!

I love all these books!

I adore these books and how strong the men are. Not the money part or mafia part lol. Maybe Russian men are very possessive. What I did not like was the ending. I did not like how it just ended and no bow to tie it all together.

Just keeps getting better!

Absolutely love this series. It’s an absolute must listen/read. Not only does it have perfect main characters but the supporting characters are superb. 10/10 would recommend. My only tiny complaint is the switch in the female voice actor. It didn’t detract from the performance but I did really love the previous one.

Sweet Severity

This is book #7 of the series and I wish I could say the 🎧books get better I’m finding that quite the opposite. The narration was good I think the problem lies with the storyline, it was just meh considering the prior 6 books were better. I like that the book ends with a HFN but it seemed incomplete and it leaves you with questions. Is it worth the credit? Sadly, I must say no this book just didn’t do it for me.
