I came for my money. I took her instead.

She's not the one who stole from me. She's a pawn caught up in her family's deadly game.

It doesn't matter. Her innocence won't save her from me.

I could just let her return the money, but as I stare down at the beautiful creature stretched out before me like a virgin sacrifice I thank God for every sin that has blackened my cold heart.

Because I'm going to make her beg, scream, and suffer for me.

Then I'm going to make her mine.

Publisher's Note: Sweet Savagery is a stand-alone novel which is the third entry in the Ruthless Obsession series. It includes spankings, rough sexual scenes, intense and humiliating punishments, and strong D/s themes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.

Editorial Reviews

Review

I am absolutely and irrevocably in love with Ivan. Tall, tattooed, hot dark and dangerous. Ivan sees, Ivan wants, Ivan takes. - Lynn Thinking Out Loud, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Zoe Blake has done it again, surpassing the bar of her first two Ruthless Obsession books and creating a darker story that left me wanting more. The first page had me hooked and I found myself spiraling into Ivan and Dylan's world headfirst and not wanting to put it down. - Jo McCall, Dark Romance Author ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ahhhhmazing does not even begin to cover how good this book is. I have read the entire series and they just keep getting better and better. (Also, darker and darker.) - Paige Bode, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sweet Savagery is the third book in the Ruthless Obsession Series. Captivating dark mafia romance, kinky, spicy and steamy, full of sexual tension and great chemistry. Intriguing plot, drama, apprehension. Phenomenal read and addition to the series. - No Book Behind ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow! I thought it couldn't get hotter than Dimitri and Vaska but Ivan does! If you love a tattooed Russian mobster who takes what he wants then this book is for you! - Tina Jabco, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Zoe's book has these JP heroes that just drive me crazy! Her brand of craziness and addiction and I can't get enough of them. I have been waiting for Ivan's book for so long! And we finally have it. Ivan didn't know the meaning of the word No and took what he wanted but he knew that Dylan liked it that much too! He was dark as hell and I loved every second of it. Definitely recommending this one to all the dark mafia romance loving people. - The Abstract Books Blog ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dayum!!!! I do love me a bossy Russian man that won't take no for an answer. Ivan and Dylan were explosively hot!! Zoe's men always obsess over their women, and I love it. - Heidi Watson, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm picturing Dimitri (Sweet Cruelty) and Vaska (Sweet Depravity) conversing in a bar. Dimitri: "No one is more jealous and possessive than me." Vaska: "Well, no one is more obsessive and controlling than me." Ivan walks in... "Friends, hold my beer." - Steph W., Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant, hot, explosively delicious. Another sizzling story with a very demanding, possessive alpha that would do anything to get his way and would do anything for her. - Melissa Crump, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book has all the steamy Russian domineering, take charge, overprotective, nobody's touching what's mine attitude you could ever want. - Erin, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Zoe Blake never fails to deliver a fantastic read. She has hit it out of the park with this one. I think we all need some dominating, possessive Russians in our lives. - Tina Williams, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Zoe has done it AGAIN! I just cannot get enough of these growly possessive Russian men! - Zoe-Amelia Harris, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dylan and Ivan may just be my favorite mafia romance read. There was money, lust, control, but most importantly chemistry! - Joselin, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another OTT JP alpha mixed with a sweet yet fiery heroine. I absolutely loved it! Once again Zoe... you've written perfection. - Lyndsey, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you love over the top possessive alphas who know what they want and take it.. then this is a book not to be missed! Ivan is a beat on his chest caveman that steamrolls right over all of Dylan's preconceived notions about what she thinks she wants and needs in a man. Ivan shows her clearly from the moment that they meet that he is exactly what she needs and wants in a man as much as she might want to fight it and him. - Deanna, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Oh my God! Let me just first say that I love this entire series. Obsessed with it. Vaska, Dimitri, and now my all-time favorite Russian man Ivan. Wow this story was was absolutely phenomenal!! - Karen, Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you read and loved both of the previous books in this series, then Sweet Savagery will not disappoint! - Amber G. Goodreads Reviewer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Shallow characters and…

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2021

Verified Purchase

Rape. A lot of rape. There was one consensual sex scene in the entire book. They started having sex at 15% of the book and it took them until 74% to have the only consensual sex scene in the entire book. Every other scene was rape.

The characters are also shallow. The FMC is really really dumb which is not her fault really. She grew up in an abusive environment and so it makes sense that she just lets the MMC rape her over and over and over again. She can’t help it. The MMC has basically no background and not one romantic bone in his body. He was a nothing character. This is not a romance novel. This is a rape fantasy.

Also this is not BDSM. Consent is required in BDSM. Aftercare and communication and respect is required in BDSM. This is a book about rape. And very stupid characters.

This series just keeps getting better! Sooo good!! You love OTT DOMINATE ALPHA RUSSIANS?? This is your series! This one has to be the best!

The things:
-OTT possessive, dominate, aggressive, steam rolling H
- h comes from a family of thieves but just wants to live the clean life when she gets out right back in the middle.
-If you mix Vaska and Dimitri you get Ivan. He’s more aggressive, more punishing and more dominate with his h I feel like!
-ALLLLL THE PUNISHMENTS 🥵🥵 I mean if your into getting spanked when the h messed up. Ivan DOES NOT PLAY! It was so dayyyyummm hot!
-Steamy
-That dirty talk 🤤
-Calls h his “little doll” 🥰
- h is NOT a virgin in this one but, she isn’t super experienced and it’s just told that she’s been with two guys before who weren’t ANYTHING like Ivan. I mean do they even count?? NAHHHH!
-Age gap Ivan is 1 years older than Dylan but you don’t learn until the end 🤷🏻‍♀️
-These books are never long enough for me. I wish I had a bit more after the finally drama always happens. 😭😭 I always want more!
-Updated on Emma and Mary 😍
-A new couple which hopefully is next book

If you already loved this series you won’t be disappointed.

What a wild ride, love this story!

Dylan family was a bunch of criminals who she tried to set herself apart but it looks like her family won’t leave her alone. A father in prison and her mom dead, living in foster care she had a rough start but she tried to make a better life for herself. Her uncles stole from a Russian crime boss and sent him directly to her to
claim the money he stole. When Dylan opened the door at the open house, they were both stunned and speechless when they stared at each other. Like the predator that he was he went for his prey and tried to convince her to give up the money was well as be his woman while he was in America. I enjoy reading the books written by Zoe Blake. She does an amazing job in putting together the storyline. The Ruthless Obsession series was off the chains.

I loved Ivan and Dylan’s story! Ivan is definitely a OTT alphahole criminal who just takes control of Dylan’s life like he has the right to. Dylan is strong and stubborn and independent but she’s starting to like having Ivan in her corner taking care of her and loving her. I loved watching these two duke it out. Never a dull moment. This was a great entertaining read! I highly recommend the whole series and I can’t wait for the next story!

Hot, Heavy & Fantastic

Once again I find myself entirely obsessed with Ms. Blake's books and this one was fantastic!

Mmm.. Ivan is growly, possessive, alpha and did I mention delicious. The man does not take no for an answer and is so sweet towards Dylan, who puts up a fight at every turn or at least tries too.

But when it comes to these Russian men, mmm the flesh is weak lol.

Ten out of ten, on to the next one which is Maxim.

So hot!! If you are looking for an over the top possessive growly alpha male that is determined the heroine is his and keeps repeating MINE and is also determined to "see her belly swell with his seed"..... This is the book for you. Sexy hot scenes from the beginning to the end. The support characters are funny and the dialogue is wonderful. Told in both pov. Can't wait for the next story.

I want a Russian crime boss of my own

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2022

Out of the, to date, three hot AF Russian MMCs in this series, I think I've fallen the hardest for Ivan. There's something about the way he adapts to Dylan that flat out does it for me. In the previous two books, Dimitri and Vaska went straight to forever. I enjoyed watching Ivan move from wanting Dylan for now to wanting her for forever.

🚩 Non-con, violence, murder, blackmail

Ivan and Dylan (she’s named after bob dylan)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 10, 2022

I have read this series in reverse, reading sweet savagery first. It can be read as standalone and I enjoyed it so much I read book 2.
Ivan decides to go to the states after he finds out half a million dollars has been stolen from him (this is a tiny amount in his funds but it’s the principle) he first thinks he trying to locate a man named Dylan whose uncle had sent the money too, Dylan had received two boxes that morning with half a million dollars hidden inside, she knows her deadbeat criminal uncles have got themselves involved in something underhand but she is trying to live a life on the straight n narrow and leaves it in her horrible apartment to go to work as an estate agent in training, when Ivan tracks Dylan down he is knocked off his feet, she is beautiful and feisty. He wants her, but he wasn’t the only one looking for the money ans she is fighting feelings for him. It’s a great read hence I went and read book 2 after.

Zoe has done it again, another brilliant story in the ruthless obessession series! Ivan and Dylans push and pull relationship had me hooked from the beginning, I loved the ruthlessness, possessiveness and dominance of Ivan and I love Dylans fight for her freedom even more. This was a passionate and steamy read and I loved every second of it!
I can't wait for the next book in the series.

The one thing you get when buying a book of Zoe Blake , is a reason to stay awake well after midnight. This is the third book and you will enjoy the feisty heroine who has to put up with the obsessive Russian. A must read.

More growly Russian perfection

We meet Dylan and Ivan in this sexy third installment. The character development is richer than Zoe's previous novels and it makes you love the MCs more. You really understand the tension Dylan feels and why she fights her attraction to Ivan. This book is for mature readers. There's kinky sex, dubcon and more kinky sex. It's exquisite fiction. Also Mary and Emma continue to be kicka**e.
