What an amazing duet! I adore Savvy, she is the perfect kind of FMC. Able to hold her own, snarky, and able to show her vulnerability as well. Jasper is the best kind of alpha-hole. He has no problem standing up for Savvy, but also stands behind her to let her fight her own battles as well. I love this couple so much. So many things about this plot I did not see coming and enjoyed every moment I spent within Savvy and Jasper’s world.

Ruthless Noble is the second book in The Royalty Crew series. This book is told from dual perspectives from Samantha (Savvy) King and Jasper Noble. You need to read Savage King first, as this book starts off right where the first book ends.

This book starts off with Savvy learning that her mother and stepfather have arranged a marriage for her and Jasper's best friend. Her mother is forcing her to do this, and if she doesn't her mother threatened her brother's life.

Savvy is still seeing Jasper and trying to figure out how to get out of this marriage. In school, she puts up a front with her now fiancée. Jasper has a hard time with this.

Savvy and Jasper find out some secrets and lies that were told to them from the beginning. Can Savvy get out of this wedding she doesn't want? Can she save her brother from the mother? Will Savvy and Jasper get their happily ever after?

I loved this book, and am excited to see what is to come next in this series.

I didn't like this sequel as much as the first one. Savvy is still a character I love though!
The whole engagement was all the book was about. Such a shame. We barely see Tinsley or Banks, or the academy (they barely go) we see a lot of Duke, and I love him a lot so that was great.
But the story dragged.

I don't know when the author will continue this series, it's a bummer really but I'll wait because I really want to read Tinsley's story! Not gonna lie Tessa in this book was a bit too much and I'm afraid a whole book about her is going to make me hate her. Specially as Wes and Duke seem to be the best suitors (apparently there's a third one, maybe Leo?)

I was lucky enough to receive an ARC curtesy of Hatter Author Services for a honest non spoiler review.

Please note this is a second book of a duet thus the first book must be read before jumping into this book.

I read this in 24 hours! As mentioned in my first book review, I felt that book was setting up the world with not much action happening to after 50% of the book. I felt like it was just getting great when it ended, so I was so excited to read this book and I definitely devoured it.

After the cliffhanger in the first book, Savvy is suddenly engaged to her crush’s best friend. We fortunately not only receive lots of answers in this book, but the true relationship of Jasper & Savvy. I honestly smiled when they finally admitted to their feelings. With an arranged marriage over Savvy’s shoulders, she makes sure Jasper knows that doesn’t change the way she sees Jasper. While the first book was slow burn, this book jumps right into it. The connection between them is true and the support they give each other is love. As Savvy learns not only things about herself, but things of her past, Jasper is there. They fight their families for their love, with their true friends coming to their side.

This was an addictive read and I look forward in now reading more of this authors world!

4/5 stars with 3/5 steam.

I tell you what I don’t know where I was hoping this one would go after that damn cliffhanger?!?!? Though I shouldn’t really be surprised Alley Ciz is a mean one with those cliffhangers!!!

Book two in Savvy Kings duet throws a whole bunch of curveballs for our formidable Savvy to over come and damn does she do it with style!

This one picks up just minutes after that damn cliffhanger and I’m telling you I felt every emotion with this book Savvy was seriously put through the ringer In this one! But the relationship she builds with jasper and her friendships with Tessa Tinsley and Duke keep for going not to mention the family support if the brother is a little bit of an idiot there for a moment!!

Definitely the best way to end this duet and I cannot wait to see what’s next for the royalty crew as well as the U of J peeps

Well, after the ending of the last book, it was so nice to get to the end of Savvy & Jasper's story. I started to fall in love with Jasper last book, but this one he got even better! He became such an amazing man & I want one of my own!. Savvy was still her kick ass self & I absolutely love her. 

Even without a cliffy to leave us with like last time, there still was a twist that I definitely did not see coming at all. I was 100% in the same place as Savvy & Jasper when they got to the twist, utter and complete shock.

This series & book is so well written, you absolutely get into the story with how well it is told. Just phenomenal storytelling by Alley Ciz. She has always been one of my favorite authors & this book just continued to confirm why that is. 

Definitely a must read book!
