Another brilliant book by Emma in the Freddie and Anna series and sadly the last one. It is a fast paced storyline that gripped from the first to the last page and just as brilliant as all of the previous books. It is an amazing series that I am very sad to finish but would recommend it 1000%, you won’t be disappointed!!

Having read every book in this excellent series I looked forward to the latest installment,I was not disappointed as this book was every bit as good as the others.Anna ,Freddie and Tanya are on the up again after dealing with the Russian gangster in the last book, But soon they realize that his wife Sophia is every bit as dangerous and they are once again thrown in to having to save their empire by using every means possible to stay ahead of the game.Freddie is also having to deal with shocking news from is past,Emma Tallon has said this is the last book in the series and in my opinion she has gone out on a high,it will be a shame to not read any more of Anna and Freddie' s exploits but all good things come to an end.This is a superb series of books and if you enjoy this genre dive in and enjoy but I would start at the beginning of them all.

Ruthless girl is the latest offering in the Anna Davis/Freddie Tyler gangster series and is a great read.

An old face from the past turns up claiming to have been a good friend of Freddie’s father and requesting a job within the firm in recognition of taking the rap for a murder he didn’t commit and completing a 25 year prison sentence. Something about Jim Martin doesn’t add up and after seeing his mother’s adverse reaction to him Freddie’s suspicions are aroused but nothing could prepare him for the bombshell he is about to uncover.

The widow of Russian gangster, Alexsei proposes that the two firms come together in the trafficking of firearms providing both with a lucrative arrangement. Is she to be trusted given the bad blood between the Tyler’s and Alexsei or does she have an ulterior motive. Her sudden appearance puts Anna, Tanya and Josephine in a dangerous position and if the trio’s secret is revealed to Freddie his trust in them could be destroyed.

Loyalty and how it can be put to the test plays a big part of this book. If you’ve read the previous instalments of this series you will love this next chapter.

Many thanks to the publishers and netgalley for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

I have read and loved every one of the books in this series. Ruthless Girl is the seventh and final book telling the lives of Anna and Tanya and of course the Tyler Family. This book is fast paced and has you gripped from page one right to the very end. In a way it’s quite sad to be saying goodbye to all the characters I’ve met in this series, but who knows what Emma has in store for us with Lily Drew. Who knows maybe one day Anna and Tanya might even return. I gave this book a well deserved 5 stars, and I highly recommend this book and the whole series. Well done Emma, I look forward to reading whatever you have in store for us readers next.

I absolutely love Freddie, he's absolutely gorgeous and it doesn't matter what he does, I still think he's brilliant.
Anna is also a brilliant character. I love how feisty she is and how her attitude never shocks me.
I am a huge fan of this author and this is quite possibly my new favourite book. I have waited so long for this book and devoured this in just one sitting.
Queen Emma is back with another absolutely fantastic read. I'm already eagerly anticipating the next Freddie instalment. I must admit that I actually wanted to shout at Emma when I thought I knew what was happening.
I'm so glad that I was wrong and this was just a twist. This is without a doubt a book that I highly recommend.
This book has gripped me from the start and been full of twists and turns. This book is absolutely five stars. This is an extremely talented author and I highly recommend these books.

I'm so sad to hear that this is the final instalment of this series. Its been an absolute honour and pleasure to follow the lives of Anna, Tanya and the Tyler's. This book did not let me down and is just as flawless as the previous ones in the series. Plenty of action and super characters. Looking forward to see what Emma Tallon brings next.

always get excited to hear that another book from Emma Tallon is out. But I am also sad as this is the 7th and the last book in the Tyler series.
Once again, we are back with the Tyler’s Freddie, Mollie, Anna, Tanya, Paul. Anna and Freddie have now reconciled so everyone is happy. Except one person Sophia Ivanov. Even though herself and her husband wasn’t as close as couples are. She has a sense of loyalty and she thinks that Freddie killed him. So, she is out for revenge.
This is another Brilliant episode in the series with heart stopping moments and lots of twists and turns. Yet again with this author the story never goes stale. Also, in this episode we see the emotional side of the Tyler’s especially when Freddie when he finds out what happened to his mother years ago and the emotions stir up inside of him when he finds out what really happened at the time of his birth. This is another great book. I am sad to see the Tyler’s go but I am also excited to see what Emma Tallon has next in store. 5 stars from me.

This book has 369 pages and it’s 369 pages of pure gold adorned with diamonds!
Throughout the series, a lot of baddies have died and gone to hell. I, on the other hand, feel like I have died and gone to heaven each time I can read a new sequel.
This time is no different. A lot of secrets are revealed and according to the Tylers revenge is a dish best served piping hot 😊.
My heart stopped a few times. My heart broke a few times. My heart will always have a special place reserved for Freddie. I really like a great amount of main characters in different books, but Freddie is and will remain my number 1. No matter what he does or does not do, it will never change.
This is such an amazingly good series. I hope and pray that the author will find the inspiration to add a few more books.
Bye for now, Freddie. I hope to see you again soon. 5 golden stars adorned with diamonds. 😉

Thank you, Emma Tallon and Bookouture

Ruthless Girl by Emma Tallon
Publish date 29th October 2020

Thank you to @bookouture, the author and @netgalley for this Advanced Readers Copy in exchange for an honest review.

I LOVED this!! I haven’t read a gangster/crime book, I have enjoyed so much in years. I felt like I knew all the characters straight away, even though I hadn’t read any of the series before.

This was fast paced and gritty, I was hooked throughout and will now be starting the series from the beginning 😊

ALWAYS glad to find out that a new Emma Tallon book is out!

This story, as the others in this series, does not disappoint. Now that Anna has had a taste of Freddie's business, her "dark side" is exposed. She is more ruthless than previously portrayed. Having to deal with forces that seem to constantly hold her back becomes a challenge.

DI Riley is still working with Freddie. This, so he and his brother, Paul, can continue Their drug sales and other illegal deals.

Will it come to the point where only one of the Anna-Freddie duo will win?

A GREAT READ! Many Thanks to Bookouture and NetGalley for another super Emma Tallon read!

Emma Tallon has brought us a Brilliant series i love the Tylers and i must admit was wary of reading this the last book.Freddie,Anna,Tanya,Paul and the crew are still recovering from fighting the Russian for their own turf when little things get noticed and brought to freddies attention.Anna can't bring herself to look at Josephine for the betrayal of them all. I have been hooked on this series from book 1 to this book and to say that i am lucky to still have nails is an understatement.Emma has kept me on the edge of my seat all through this book and i must admit i didn't want to finish it.BRILLIANT book.Thank you Emma for a Fantastic series and i look forward to the next.5*

I have been lucky to be able to read all of the books in this series about Freddie and Paul Tyler, Anna, and Tanya.

what a corker this book was. It had me on the edge of my seat gripped from the first page. I felt like I was meeting up with old friends.
If you like crime with a bit of brutality, jealousy, and revenge then this is the book for you.

Well written with great characters and a damn good story.
Thank you NetGalley, for the opportunity to read and review this excellent book. xxx

This is the 7th book in this series and am utterly devastated to say the last instalment, I have loved every moment of this series which began with Runaway Girl, not sure what I’ll do without my dose of the Tylers and Anna and Tanya.

Just when the Tylers thought they had seen the end of the Russians, Alexis wife believing Freddie to have murdered her husband, sets a plan in motion, one she is sure will see Freddie’s head on a plate. Anna is still reeling from Josephine’s betrayal and has Tanya finally found love? Another action packed saga with some shocking outcomes I didn’t see or want to see happening, hard to say too much without giving it away but suffice to say it was an explosive ending to what I can only describe as a superb series. Thank you Emma Tallon for giving us the gift of the Anna, Tanya and the Tylers, its been a treat and one I certainly won’t forget and have no qualms in recommending to anyone.

It’s always exciting to start this authors latest book, this is the 7th in the series ( they can be read as stand alone’s as well as following the series ) but this time there was a hint of sadness as this is to be the lastin the series ( for now ) as a new crime family is being developed for her next book
So, it was great to be back with Freddie, Paul, Anna, Tanya Sarah and Josephine as they once again get themselves in, and out, and then back in trouble and strife on the streets of Soho, with nee additions including Jim who suddenly appears on the scene demanding payback for his 25 years he served in prison on ‘behalf of the family’
I sometimes read that series’ ‘go off’ as they progress and the characters dont work so well etc, not so with this family and their friends/enemies, this book is as fresh and exciting as Book 1 ‘Runaway Girl’ and has as many, if not more, hard hitting storylines and situations that they all find themselves in
All the cast are ‘characters’ , every one of them from Molly the long suffering Mum of Freddie and Paul to Sophia, the Russian gangsters wife and all play their part superbly making a book full of plots and sub plots, some ruthless and all for the good of the family
You can tell I have loved these books and I loved this one as much and have enjoyed every minute of my shared journey with them, if you are looking for a page turning family crime drama then this ( and the other books in the series ) is for you

10/10
5 Stars

This is book #7 and the last book in the Tyler family series. Whilst part of a series, it can be read as a standalone book. We are back with the Tyler family who run a big crime empire in London. The book begins with a heart stopping prologue, not just giving you a feel as to what direction this book is going in but making you wonder what the hell just happened!!

I love Freddie’s character! He’s a ruthless gangster who you really wouldn’t want to cross, but deep down he’s lovable and caring! I loved his relationship with Anna, but since Freddie came out of prison it’s felt their relationship hasn’t been as strong as what it was with Anna becoming more independent in life and business. This book follows on from the last, with Freddie, Anna and the rest of the crew still suffering the repercussions of fighting the Russians. They also now face an enemy within, which could end up changing everything forever.

As usual, the storyline is strong and fast paced. The plot is twisted and gripping, catching my interest from the first page, and not letting go until the very last! It was great to have back all the characters we’ve seen in previous books, and also the introduction of some new ones. I have read these books from the very beginning and have come to know these characters very well, so it was heart-breaking, and dare I say it, exciting reading this part of their stories!!

The author has created great characters and has captured the grittiness and danger that surround them all in their crime empire! There’s lot of violence, drug references, mistrust and lies, but we also get to see what really makes them all tick in this book!! It’s an emotional read, particularly if you’ve been involved with the characters from the beginning, but it will also definitely keep you on the edge of your seat all the way through! By the time I’d reached half way, I had no choice but to not do anything else until I’d finished the book, and I particularly needed no distractions just in case I missed a bit of the action!!

I honestly can’t believe we have come to the end of what has been my favourite gangland thriller series, but what a series it has been!! Filled with gangsters, murders, betrayal and revenge, this book is a fitting end to a fabulous series. It does however leave it open to further storylines and you never know there may be more books to come in the Tyler family series! In the meantime, I shall be waiting, with anticipation, for a new series which I’m sure will match this one. Freddie, Anna, Tanya and the rest of the crew…it’s been a pleasure!! Highly recommended.

I have absolutely loved and devoured all of Emma Tallon's books. And the Tyler series has never let me down. Emma always keeps you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. While I'm sad that Ruthless Girl is the last in the series I can't wait for the new series. I'd highly recommend Emma Tallon as a brilliant author.
Thanks to Netgalley, Bookouture and Emma Tallon for allowing me to read this Arc.

An amazing story! Characters that are strong, full of will and life, a story that grips you from beginning to end. I really enjoyed it, and although it is not the first book in the series, the plot was well-explained that I was able to understand the story and how the characters in this book came to be from the previous book. I finished this book in two nights because I just couldn’t wait to find out how the story would end.

I have read all the books in the Tyler series and this final one did not disappoint!! I was on the edge of my seat reading this book! I raced through the pages but at the same time didn’t want it to end. I’ve felt every emotion and been with the family at every occasion, good and bad. Absolutely amazing author! Thank you for letting me review this title

I have read all the books in the series and loved the story, this one like the rest has betrayal and heartbreak for Anna, Tanya and the Tylers. Emma has said that this one will be the last one for now and it ends on a sad note but her new series of books will be just as gripping and the new characters are introduced briefly in Ruthless Girl. I would like to thank the publishers and netgalley for letting me have the book to review and the opinions expressed are entirely my own views and are completely unbiased

I know it's something we all say from time to time but my goodness, I COULD NOT PUT THIS DOWN!
One that certainly got my heart beating. It was beating that fast my fitbit thought I'd been for a run.
I have just loved this series, each and every book you learn more about the characters their lives everything they stand for. the author here has created a fantastic set of characters that work so well together.
Betrayal, loyalty, Revenge, gangsters, guns this book has it all.

we are Back with the Tyler brothers, Anna and Tanya, these characters feel like they are people I know, I've followed them so far on an epic journey. The author has done a first class job creating such unique and individual characters.
There seems to be so much to deal with this time around, so much going and you don't have a clue in which way things are going. They thought they'd seen the last of the Russians but it seems the wife of missing Alexis is on the war path and thinks that Freddie may have killed him. Will hidden secrets surface and destroy Anna and Freddie's relationship that finally seems to be back on track.

Anna is struggling with what she see's as a betrayal from a close friend, it's tough seeing a great friendship crumbling but sometimes you just can not forgive.

Seeing this story not only carry on from book to book but with each new book we have new enemies, new characters and this flows seamlessly through each book just reeling you in that little bit more. This series is like a drug it's set out to get you and once it has there is not giving up.

These books should come with an addiction warning.
So so good, I can't recommend this series highly enough.
