Blurb:
Welcome to their kingdom
Cole Covington is the most popular heartbreaker at school.
Every guy wants to be him and every girl wants to screw him.
Except me.
His devastatingly good looks, golden arm, and flirty smiles don't do it for me anymore...because I know what's lurking underneath the star quarterback's gorgeous armor.
At least I thought I did.
Sometimes the most beautiful people...hide the ugliest truths.
And sometimes the only way to save someone...
is to walk beside them through hell.
Sawyer Church is the bible-thumping nerd of Royal Hearts Academy.
Girls pick on her and guys don't notice her.
Except me.
Sweet, curvy, and sarcastic, she's impossible to ignore.
No matter how much I try.
Everyone at school has her pegged as the chubby, Jesus loving geek, but unlike them—Sawyer's real and never pretends to be someone she's not.
Until I ask her to be my fake girlfriend.
Sometimes the most beautiful souls...hide the greatest pain.
And sometimes the only way to save someone...
is to fight for them.
About the Author:
Ashley Jade loves to tackle different genres and tropes within romance. Her first loves are New Adult Romance and Romantic Suspense, but she also writes everything in between including: contemporary romance, erotica, and dark romance.
Her characters are flawed and complex, and chances are you will hate them before you fall head over heels in love with them.
She’s a die-hard lover of oxford commas, em dashes, music, coffee, and anything thought provoking…except for math.
Books make her heart beat faster and writing makes her soul come alive. She’s always read books growing up and scribbled stories in her journal, and after having a strange dream one night; she decided to just go for it and publish her first series.
It was the best decision she ever made.
If she’s not paying off student loan debt, working, or writing a novel—you can usually find her listening to music, hanging out with her readers online, and pondering the meaning of life.
Check out her amazon page and Facebook page for future novels.
She recently became hip and joined Twitter, so you can find her there, too.
She loves connecting with her readers—they make her world go round’.

I thought I was ready for Cole Covington, I thought I knew what I was getting into with his story....I had no idea what was coming. None! Cole is everything I didn’t know I wanted him to be. Behind the mask that he wears is a completely different Cole. He’s a troubled guy, he’s not dealing with his issues, he can be calculated and cruel sometimes but even when he made me hate his actions (he’s definitely no angel) I still couldn’t stop myself from loving him. The more I got to know him, the more I understood why he’s the way he is and the more I understood, the more I loved him. He’s not always easy to like but when he shows his softer side, he is so unbelievably easy to love.
I knew before starting this that Sawyer was going to be my girl. I loved her in Cruel Prince (which does not need to be read first but I highly recommend you do read it) and I fell even more in love with her in this book. She is the star of Ruthless Knight, for me anyway. She’s a one of a kind character and she’s probably the easiest character to relate to that I’ve read, ever. The things she’s dealing with will resonate with a lot of readers, you’re going to feel every ounce of her pain, you’re probably going to get upset, angry, feel disappointed, but you won’t blame her. You’ll want to wrap her up in cotton wool and hurt anyone that hurts her. She definitely brought out my protective instincts. She’s the one character that I ‘got’ immediately. I get what she’s going through, what she’s feeling, why she’s doing what she does. She’s one of those characters I wish was a real person so I could kidnap her and keep her for myself.
The banter between Sawyer and Cole was one of my favourite things about this book. I lived for their little back and forth exchanges, you can feel the attraction between them constantly bubbling under the surface. Their story is an emotional rollercoaster. It really hit me with all the feels. My heart broke for what these two characters have gone through but it was worth every second of it.
I’ve been a fan of this author for years and this is without a doubt Ashley Jades best work to date. She’s elevated everything to the next level with Ruthless Knight. The characters and the story are beautifully written. It deals with some serious/sensitive subjects in an extremely thoughtful way and it made me really think and question a lot of the things brought up in this book. I did a fair bit of soul searching. It’s emotional and angsty but there’s plenty of humour to even it out so it doesn’t drain you and leave you feeling wrung out. The characters, their story and the subjects it deals with will definitely be playing on my mind for a long time to come.
This is a definite must read! With each book this series gets better and better and I can’t recommend this book enough.
