Blurb:
I was sick of being the girl who ran so this time I stayed. For them. Hardin and Kaleb.
But now, thanks to Aodhan, there's a target on my back.
I thought I could trust him, but he threw me to the wolves. It doesn't matter what he's done to try to fix it; I should hate him. I should…but I can't.
Until those closest to me are hurt and blood starts to spill in the streets.
That's when I know what I have to do.
It's time to summon a version of Becca Hart that can be just as ruthless as her enemies. If I can't, I don't think any of us will make it out alive.
Ruthless Reigncompletes the Kings of Kilborn Univeristy duet. It is a dark romance where the main character doesn't have to choose between love interests.

My 4* Review:
Ruthless Reign by Elena Lawson is the conclusion to the Kings of Kilborn duet. We have waited patiently to find out what happens between Becca and her guys but it was worth it. This is action packed as the gang war escalates between the Sons and the Saints. There are secrets and lies, acts of betrayal and loyalty tested, but most of all it is about the love that has been simmering between the four main characters. A dark and brutal romance with plenty of steamy scenes as the reverse harem develops.
Hardin and Kaleb are still coming to terms with finding Becca alive and unharmed after the attack on the safe house. The brothers she here as theirs and feel a responsibility to keep safe. Kaleb will rather share her than not have her at all but Hardin fights his jealousy and struggles with the idea of not having her to himself. Kaleb knows she wants them both and how good she is for Hardin but he feels he is better for her.
Now no one is safe with Seamas O'Sullivan trying to control their territory. They still didn't know who the rat is in their ranks giving away information so the Sons are always one step ahead. The deal means each time they meet another Saint could lose their life. Diesel can't risk asking Diesel and the Crows for help so who will survive to the end?
Becca had worked so hard and sacrificed so much, she wasn't going to leave now. She's determined to help them and summons up her inner Ava Jade. I loved how she interacted with all three guys.
We find out so much more about Aodhan and what he has endured. How guilty he feels over telling his father about her and putting her in danger. He knows she will soon put all the clues to his identity together.
Can he blow his cover and go against his father? How far is he prepared to go to keep her safe?
Will they pull together to save each other? Can the brothers ever trust him? Will they all forgive him and accept him? With his loyalty in question all hell breaks loose and the situation becomes dangerous for everyone.
I loved how strong all the female characters were especially Sloane. It was great to see Ava and her Crows again as they really are a fearless foursome.
Be prepared for some surprises and upsets along the way. There is an explosive and violent fight between the gangs to bring the story to an exciting finish. I would have liked one scene between Becca and Aodhan as I felt he deserved it, plus an epilogue about the four of them to bring their romance to a finale as all such great characters. Overall a good conclusion to the duet.
