Publisher's Summary

It was an innocent mistake; she knocked on the wrong door. It was mine.

If I were a better man, I would've just let her go. But I'm not. I'm a cruel bastard. I ruthlessly claimed her virtue for my own. It should've been enough but it wasn't

I needed more...I craved it.

She became my obsession. Her sweetness and purity taunted my dark soul. The need to possess her nearly drove me mad. A Russian arms dealer had no business pursuing a naive librarian student. She didn't belong in my world. I would bring her only pain. But it was too late...she was mine and I was keeping her.

Sweet Cruelty is a dark romance stand-alone novel intended for mature audiences.

Scorching

Tor Thor’s Russian accent was amazing. This was a hot romance. On to the next book in the series

WARNING: Trigger Alert

The first five chapters of the book describe Emma's rape by Dimitri. Once she gets away from her rapist, her roommate calls her a slut for losing her virginity to a rapist "with a pirate scar." It goes downhill for another hour from there. Couldn't finish the book it was so poorly written. The only saving grace were the narrators.

If you are looking for a good Russian Bratva audiobook series - go check out JT Geissinger's Queens and Monsters.

Sweet Cruelty is NOT creditworthy.

Great book!

Dimitri was an over-the-top alpha and became extremely possessive and obsessed with Emma. With him, no meant nothing. He was filthy rich and when she knocked on his door by mistake looking for someone else, all bets are off. I hope Emma's best friend Mary, and Dimitri's best friend, Vaska, get books of their own. Lauren Sweet and Tor Thom did a great job with the narration. Tor Thom did an especially good job with the Russian accent.

10 Scorching hot stars!

10 Scorching hot stars!!! This story had me at the first word. No one weaves a story with wicked twists and curves like Zoe Blake! An incredibly strong, powerful, hot Russian who does not accept the word “no”. Spellbinding and captivating. The narrators are amazing!!!

LOVE

I love this book so much. It has been one of my favorites for a while. It is my go to when I can't decide what I want to read next. I was so excited to see that it was available on audible. I like to listen to books while I am working, doing chores around the house or when I want to actively want to ignore my husband and kids.

Lauren Sweet and Tor Thom had very pleasant voices to listen to. I found Lauren easier to listen hear clearly, probably because Tor's voice was significantly deeper so I had to focus more to hear him clearly, especially when he is using a Russian accent. Overall, the listening experience was great.

LOVED IT

Loved it!! I read the books almost a year ago, so when I came across "Sweet Cruelty " on audio I had to get it. It was narrated beautifully. I absolutely loved it.
I sincerely hope that the rest of series will follow.
