The Bogeyman's Woman

Ruin is a “problem solver” ( aka hit man) for the mafia. A man so feared by others that he achieved the nickname the “Bogeyman,” however his newest target has him stumped. Callie seems to leave a boring and solitary life so why would she be up for “termination?” Ruin is also amazed by the fact that her picture alone seems to have upended his normal routine, and after meeting her, well let’s say he doesn’t want their time to end, which is a total turnaround from his normal . I’ll admit Ruin was not who I was expecting based on his moniker. I mean he was learning how to knit to meet up with Callie, and while he justified it by saying he was learning her patterns, Ruin seems to care for Callie right off the bat. Yes he’s quite the alpha male but he does have a soft side too. But fear not, this is no weak man, and Callie for all her shy and retiring ways is strong all on her own. Those of you who have read other books by this author will not be disappointed by the steamy hot romance with the two leads, I just wish it was a little longer. Still a nice hot and quick romance with strong alpha male vibes, tender moments, humor (did you not hear me say he was trying to learn to knit?), and in my opinion a great epilogue. 4.5 stars . I voluntarily read and reviewed an arc copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

Thank you netgalley for the eARC. I will also stop what i am doing to read Sam Crecent . This book was no exception. I love everything that comes out of this author’s fingertips. The story is great. The love scenes are great and the ending was even better

I love this authors books pulls you in to the story from page one. they call him the Bogeyman he is an asasin to hire and his own boss some would love him to fully work for them in the mafia world. Dante has a job for Ruin he wants him to kill Callie Lawson but what he does not understand is why she a loner but a very beautiful woman so he gets close to her but he knows that something is not right why kill her so while he is enjoying her company he digs deeper not going to say anymore but so recommend this authors books

Review of The Bogeyman's Woman by Sam Crescent
* * * * *
Things get deadly hot in this erotic romance and things get wonderfully complicated!

Ruin was supposed to kill her. A woman with no family, no friends, no coworkers who would have cared if she didn't turn up to work, not even a nosy neighbour to stick his nose into her business. A woman who was completely invisible to the world even if she was sitting right next to them.
It should have been a simple job.
Now he's sitting next to her...on a park bench...in her knitting club.
The dark haired, blue-eyed beauty had captured him.
He was falling for her kind heart, her beauty...and craving her curves.
Callie was not a woman who seized the moment. It was rare for her to even try and be social willingly. It scares her when suddenly the tall, built, tattooed hunk in her knitting class was talking to her. Not only that. Asking her out on a date?
He makes her crave for more.
She's twenty-nine and a virgin. She's not experienced in the field of flirting, but it's clear Ruin wants her and she's quite happy to fall for him.
However, the contractor is pushing for her death.
Callie knows some. Has stolen something. Has crossed a line. Now she was in danger.
Ruin had to save her...even if her finding out the truth would have her hate him forever.

A wonderfully delicious creation yet again by Sam Crescent. I really enjoyed Callie's character, as she was truly almost invisible. Not just a girl who shut herself away and thought she was not seen by anyone. She really was just in the bakground unnoticed by many. Ruin's backstory was sad and fantastic, building to his grown character and the new roles he takes. Plus I could totally see him kill a man with knitting needles. Just for shticks and giggles.

Ruin is known as The Bogeyman. He is an assassin and does most of his work for the mob. A capo hires him to kill a woman. Callie has no family, no friends, and works a boring job. Her only hobby is knitting. She thinks she's plain and she stays in the background. While knitting in the park she meets Ruin. Ruin can't figure out why the capo wants her dead but one look and he has no intention of killing her. Callie can't believe this sexy man is interested in her but when she finds out the real reason they meet, she is devastated. Will she forgive him and live happily ever after?

Short book. A killer and a lonely woman. I thought there needed to be more about why the capo wanted her dead and what she was doing. That might not make sense but I don't want to give anything away.

I love this authors books pulls you in to the story from page one. Short book. A killer and a lonely woman. I love the mafia books. Having the killer be willing to knit was amazing. I could totally picture him kill a man with knitting needles.

I've fallen in love with Sam Crescent's writing! The Bogeyman's Woman is no exception. Ruin is a complex protagonist. He starts off as unemotional and detached from everyone around him, focused on the brutal jobs he has to do. I love that the change in him is gradual and that while there is an instant attraction to Callie, it's not instalove. I'm not against instalove, but this allowed their relationship to unfold a bit more slowly and that I got to enjoy the story for that much longer! Callie is sweet and innocent at twenty-nine, and while Ruin sweeps her off her feet, she's also strong enough to stand her ground against him once she discovers the truth about him, A great story with some seriously steamy scenes peppered throughout! Definitely a recommended read!

Ruin gets an order to kill a woman named Calli Lawson when he looks into Calli he cannot find a reason why there would be the order. He though has taken a liking to her and decides to protect her because there are others after her as well. As Calli finds out she slowly has feelings for Ruin as well and once she begins to fall for him she finds out that he originally was the one to kill her and that breaks her heart. See if these two can work things out. This was a good book with good character.
