This story brought the series full circle. You can't help but connect with all of the characters and I really enjoyed seeing how close they have become and how they each love so passionately. You can't help but drown in the emotions that basically pour from the pages. Helen has created a world filled with darkness but also filled with light and love. This series was one of the most addicting and mesmerizing series I have ever read. This book gave me all the conclusions I was hoping for and then some. There were also twists and turns I never saw coming. When an author can blow your mind you know she has incredible talent. I can't wait to read the next book Helen writes and see where the journey will take us.
I was gifted a copy from NetGalley for an honest review.

Unraveled by Helen Hardt is book Nine in the "Steel Brothers" saga. This continues the story of Ryan Steel and Ruby Lee. To fully enjoy this book I book I think you really should read at lease the last two books (Shattered and Twisted) leading up to this one. Those book have dealt with Ryan and Ruby story leading up to this ending. This is also a dark romance story with some possible trigger issues. With that said I have to commend Ms. Hardt writing again. This was just another 'WOW' book by her. It brings the whole series into focus and one book that is hard to put down.
Loved it!

Unraveled is the final book in the Steel Brothers Saga and the continuation of Ryan and Ruby's story. You will at-least want to start with Shattered since that is the beginning of their story, however, it is not the beginning of the overall plot. Therefor you might want to start at the very beginning in book 1.

What an ending! This had some hard scenes and can be triggers for some readers. We got more of an up and close look at the human trafficking business that Ruby's father is involved in and all the secrets are revealed that the Steel brothers have been trying to unravel since the first book.

This was a dark, twisting and emotional series that will have you riveted from page one! I'm looking forward to what new series Helen Hardt will bring us next. ARC provided by NetGalley.

Wow such a great series. Triggers of rape and abduction. Dark story.
Loose ends tied up nicely as Ruby and the Steel family comes to terms with the past. Actions that were considered minor results in a big event where blackmail is a key tool. Promises are fulfilled as protection is provided even in warped sense of reality. Love that characters that were in previous books made appearances to tidy up the storyline. The characters in the Steel Brothers saga are masters of manipulation and planning thus ultimately revealing the true master - Ms. Hardt - in a well thought out 9 book series that starts with a CRAVING that becomes an OBSESSION leading to POSSESSION where you MELT from the BURN as you SURRENDER SHATTERED as this TWISTED tale is UNRAVELED.

Halfway through this book, I was asking myself how I could review this book, when my soul had already been ripped out. By the time I finished this book, I had finally been pieced back together again. Ryan and Ruby are still trying to put together all of the pieces of the ridiculously complicated puzzle of the sex slave business their parents had been involved in for decades. When the answers start coming together fast and furious, they only seem to bring up even more questions. All of the children of these monsters have had terrible, abusive childhoods but, instead of destroying them, they have only become stronger and more determined to save others from the same fate. You will be forced into every one of the emotions you have and more. You will sob, you will grieve, you will be furious and, at times, murderous. You will feel debilitating pain and, you will finally feel peace!
If I could give this book a 10 STAR rating, I would!

There could not have been a better or, more phenomenal ending to this saga!

OMG! What an ending to an amazing 9 book series. Helen Hardt is a very talented author and holds your attention from the first word to the last one.

Ryan and Ruby. Talon and Jade. Joe and Melanie. What a wild journey to find out the truth, and along the way the meet the loves of their lives and become an entirely new family in the process. They learn all the terrible things that their parents did from Dear Old Dad himself (Brad Steel). There were more than a few surprises.

I am heart broken that this series is over, but I guess they can’t go on forever. This is the best series I think I have ever read. Great job Helen Hardt!

This book comes with a close to one of the better series out there. I have read them all and i loved each and every one of the stories of the steel brothers. Ryan's story is about far the best even though Talon and Jade's story is at a close second. I wish there was more coming from the Steels but all good things must come to an end I guess and this is the last. If you want to read great series you must read these in order since they are not stand alones and I would suggest to do so. Thanks to Netgalley for letting me read this as an ARC..

I didn’t want it to end I got so attached to the steels. The mystery’s the twists and turns Helen wrapped this beautiful story up.

We finally get the ending we were looking for...or that "I" was looking for :). Helen Hardt weaves a tale with all the Steel Brothers books that are for a very good reason called a SAGA! Each book reveals a bit more about nearly ALL the characters and the mystery and suspense is absolutely amazing. Unraveled is the ninth and final book in the saga but the third of Ryan's story. All secrets will be revealed, all mysteries will be solved and the brothers finally have their say and their closure to some extent. Ruby and Ryan show amazing growth in this book and the ability to see beyond their own pain becomes apparent throughout the book and the horrifying things they must see and deal with. While there is a ton of pain and REALLY difficult moments to read in this book, there is also light, healing, closure, forgiveness and yes, plenty of steam. Watch how this family finally pulls together and learns to love, forgive, heal and grow. Despite the finality of the words, I find myself wanting more (maybe Marjorie's story lol).

I love this series and don't want it to ever end. Great characters that will make you fall in love with their stories. Heartwarming family. I need more from this story line.

I need more than 5 stars for this book and this entire series!!!!

WOW... just WOW... my mind is blown. within the first few pages, i was yet again hooked. This is the final book in the Steel Brothers Saga and I'm so sad to see them go. But Helen Hardt blew this one out of the damn park!!! Seriously... This book will take you down a dark and twisted road. What you thought you knew... prepare to have your mind shattered.

The connection between Ruby and Ryan continues to grow. The suspense this book will give you if you are anything like me it will keep you reading page after page. I stayed awake just to finish this book because I HAD TO KNOW. and that ending...

This series is not one to miss and after reading all 9 of them I must say that this is by far the most epic of them all. You get all your questions answered but let me tell you, it's so not what you think.

The epic Steel saga comes to its conclusion and I am sad to see it end. This is not a standalone and must be read in order. I will also caution those with certain triggers as this can be a challenging read as it is a dark romance containing elements of rape, kidnapping and abuse. Ryan and Ruby, along with Ryan’s brothers and their wives, continue their quest to uncover the truth behind the elaborate deceptions, secrets and betrayals that stem from their parents and what transpired during their youth. Ms. Heart has done a spectacular job weaving the threads to show the strength of family and love and with support a person can get through the tough times. There are also some twists that the reader will not see coming and will have one’s emotions on overdrive. This is one book that brings the reader to his/her knees. I do hold out hope that Ms. Hardt will consider writing Marjorie’s story one day.
I volunteered to read an arc provided by Netgalley.

This was an amazing book,about conflict, turmoil, and family love and coming together when it counts...It is a must read hands down... You will love the lows and the highs to come whole again!!!

This is final installment to the Steele brothers saga. I'm sad because I have really enjoyed these books.
We as readers learn what really happened between the characters involved in this book. And when I say " we learn everything... I mean everything".
I feel some questions were left unanswered but in the long run I had answers to almost all of them.
Helen Hardt is truely a magnificent story-teller. She has captured my attention from page one at the beginning of this series and has not let up on me. I was like a "crack addicted reader " who needed her... that fix was the next book. Now I feel like Imgoung to be going through withdrawal without the Steele brothers.

Epic Awesomeness
I am at a loss for words as tears are streaming down my face.
Ryan and Ruby finally get the HEA after everything they have been through.
Unraveled is a very fitting title for this book as it brings the whole series together through all the twists and turns from the other 8 books.

Helen Hardt did it again. It is hard to believe that this is the 9th and final book of this series. One would think that 9 books would drag on but the content flowed between each book and character. This final book wrapped up the series in surprising and somewhat shocking turns of events. Each character had an ending. No plot was left undeveloped. The characters intertwined in a way that was easy to understand and left the reader satisfied with the end of the storyline. The only negative is that this is the end of the series. The characters have become companions and I will miss being a part of their lives.

This is the final book for this series. There were a lot of unanswered questions answered, for the four siblings of Daphne and Bradford Steel. There were people showing up that you never thought you would see, cause they were suppose to of been other places. There was also a happy ending for one couple..
"I received this book for free from Netgalley/author in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review."

this was so good i just didn't want to put it down. I had me wanting more and We got it. what a great ending to a awesome series. In the book we got closer to everything. thru the adventures of the brothers and their stories.

What an incredibly climactic end to the Steel Brothers Saga. Across the nine books in this series, the suspense and mystery had slowly grown into a crescendo that felt like an equivalent to the peak of a roller coaster and Unraveled (perfectly title) was the free fall release from it all.

All questions are answers. Justice is found and peace is finally achieved. After everything they have been through, the Steel siblings finally have that HEA this was all building towards. Though I’d like to see Marjorie get a story so that it is complete for them all...this was the perfect ending to one of the most intense book series I have ever read.

Ryan and Ruby found each other amid an inconceivable situation with ties and similarities in their lives that only they could understand...and the love and bond they built was beyond what they imagined. In it, they found the strength in each other to find that serenity in their love that was the ultimate HEA.

I was hooked the moment I cracked open the virtual pages of Craving and have been kept at the edge of my seat with each story that followed. This was an incredible series!!!

The end is here!! All the unanswered questions. FINALLY!!! This read had a lot of revelations and let's you know if all the things you thought were right!?! I was right and wrong about a lot of it. There are still some lingering questions that I still have. The Steel's have a lot to deal with in this book. This was a fast read and I enjoyed every last word of it. I have loved this series and was hooked from the very beginning!! Read these books in order. I am bummed that it ended, but I enjoyed every winding turn and craziness it took me on!

I received this ARC from the publisher via Net Galley at my request for my honest opinion! Thanks NET Galley!!
