From USA Today Bestselling Author, Laura Lee, comes the continuation of this dark and addicting bully romance series.

In a world filled with secrets, lies, and cruelty, only the strongest will survive.
I’m living proof of that.

But being left for dead has made me question everything I thought I knew.

I want to believe I have allies in these ruthless games, but the more truths I unravel, the more twisted and tangled the web becomes.

And the deeper I fall down the rabbit hole, the more determined I am to bring them down.



*RUTHLESS KINGS is book 2 in the Windsor Academy series and cannot be read as a standalone. It is a dark high school bully romance that may contain triggers for sensitive readers. Due to mature content, it is recommended for readers 17+ only.

  1. Bentley takes a few steps forward, and right behind him are his two besties. Ainsley's grin stretches across her face as she spots Reed. I'm pretty sure I have the exact opposite expression on my face as I look at Kingston.

"Ruthless Kings has been my most anticipated book of the year...(it) lived up to the hype of what I was expecting, if not more than what I was expecting." - Reviews from the Heart


"This world is bigger and badder than you ever thought. So many tragedies and wicked deeds are laced throughout this story, no one will leave fully unscathed. I can't wait to get my grabby little hands on the next book!" - The Unrated Bookshelf



"This book was fabulous. Angsty, steamy, a little sweet and a lot of WTH. I have absolutely no idea what awaits in the next book but I'm already counting down the days until I get the next one." - Rina's Reads

Laura Lee is a USA Today Bestselling Author of spicy romance. If you like dark and twisty plots, sexy billionaires, ridiculous romcoms, gut-wrenching angst, and/or why choose romance, she's got you covered! If you're a romantasy fan, Laura is also one half of the author duo, Poppy Ireland.

Laura spends most of her time in the Pacific Northwest, typing away on a laptop with a furry friend curled up in her lap and an iced matcha by her side. When she's not hanging out with her family or talking to the fictional people inside her head, she's probably nose-deep in a book that features anti-heroes or an enemies to lovers trope.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT 💜🖤💜🖤!!!
FIVE RUTHLESS STARS for Jasmine and Kingston 💜🖤💜🖤!!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Why Laura?!Why did you finish writing this book with a cliffhanger?! 😭😭😭I said that "Wicked Liars" was pure perfection but I was so wrong because this book even better than the first one and I don't how this is even possible.Laura Lee once again showed and proved that she knows how to write a book that is full of tense scenes but hot and funny too.I like the way she continued the story after the first book and I look forward to the sequel."Ruthless Kings" is the second book from the "Windsor Academy" series.It's a dark bully high school romance with enemies to lovers trope.Jazz and Kingston's relationship was complicated but after facing so many obstacles and realizing that they belong to each other, their relationship became so strong that no one and nothing can break it no matter how hard they try.If you loved the first book, then you need this book right now!!!Highly recommended!!!P.S. Bentley is still MINE 🔥🔥🔥!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy 5 ⭐️ read!! Lots of Surprises in store!

Wow….I am blown away from Ruthless Kings. The cliffhanger at the end of the book has me with my mind going in circles. Guessing what comes next. I am lucky that I am reading this and Fallen Heirs, final book, in the Windsor Academy Series. I will be diving into the book right after I post my reviews for Ruthless Kings. I have been binge reading the Windsor Academy Series this weekend. I hated any interruptions and did not want to put the books down. I have been staying up late and waking early so I would have more time to read. 🙂 Ruthless Kings has all the elements that I look for in any 5⭐️✨ book. Ruthless Kings has so many surprises, twist, turns, things going sideways, hot and steamy sex, chemistry between Jazz and Kingston, and simply making me feel a variety of emotions while reading. Then when the book ends I have the feeling that I don’t want it to end. Cliffhangers, especially, makes my head spin and wants me to dive into the next book. Ruthless Kings has all of this and more. There is a mystery that the Jazz, Christian, Bentley, Reed, and Ainsley are trying to solve. I have guesses on what the outcome will be but Laura Lee, author, has done such a fantastic job with all of the surprises, twist, turn, and things going sideways that I know I could be wrong. Well, I am pretty sure I am but it would blow my mind if I am right 😂. Laura Lee, author, did a fantastic job with Ruthless Kings, in fact, with the whole series. She writes a story that has my head spinning, my emotions feels like they are in a whirlwind, and keeps my engaged so that I don’t want to let the story go. Like I mentioned earlier, that I am lucky that Fallen Heirs has been released and is waiting for me to finish this review so I can dive right back into Windsor Academy world with Fallen Heirs. As you probably guess by now that I give this book a 5⭐️rating and highly recommend you to read Ruthless Kings and if you haven’t read the first book that you do so before you read Ruthless Kings. To know what is going on and what clues were found in the mystery that I mentioned earlier so that when you are done with Ruthless Kings you seriously want to read Fallen Heirs to have all of your questions answered.

This was a good story. At times it felt like it was going in multiple directions all at once. Gave me the feeling it didn't need to be so long if it didn't stray (ex. Tattoo scene). Overall, this book was a solid 3.5 to me.

I have never been so glad that book 3 of a series has already released. Having to wait for the conclusion of Kingston and Jazz's story would drive me crazy.

Great read. I had a hard time putting it down and adulting.

*** May contain spoilers*** ( I really tried not to give any but I am a human)

Ruthless Kings is a worthy continuation to Wicked Liars. This story picks up at the giant cliff hanger we were left with from book one. Jaz is fighting for her life not knowing who to trust, who is friend and who is foe. Every single person Jaz has in her life could be the one who set her up.

What I loved about this book? That Jaz was strong, brave and the biggest of all.... SMART! She trusts no one which is a realistic reaction. It is easy to relate to how Jaz feels because it feels real. Her anger, the betrayal and realization that she is all alone in a world full of liars. It broke my heart and I fell apart with her.

Jasmine does not roll over and give in just because she hears I'm sorry she makes the boys work for her forgiveness. The chemistry between Jaz, Kingston and Brantley could have set the world on fire!!! Honestly one of the hottest scenes I have ever read is right here in this book! I had no idea how things could possibly be smoothed out regarding relationships but Larura Lee did it. She executed it perfectly.
There is a lot going on that we are left wondering about. How do all the parents fit into this equation? What are they all hiding? Who has the biggest villian for a father? Is a house going to fall on Peyton?

I am already biting nails waiting for the next book in the series! Bullymancers this is definitely a book you want to read! It's unique in plot, has a super strong h and a few panty wetting alpha males!

I was given a free copy of this book to review and give an honest opinion.

The story line is promising! There's a good base here, but it's not fleshing out really well. There's some awkward lines, no one talks in real life like some of the characters do. Plenty of cringe moments. Definitely using sex as a plot device, which isn't always a bad thing when done well. It's a little lacking. I love the story line and will read book 3, the whole series just could've used a little more work and editing. 🖤

I love a good book with poet plays! I’m also desperately hoping that Bentley and reed get books! I need to know their stories and the girls are missing a new bff. With that said, this series gives me creepy Epstein vibes. It’s a little slower paced for me and I’m not entirely understanding what role jazzs dad plays since he seems to be doing nothing while kingstons runs the show secretly. I also don’t get the jazz obsession. I mean maybe it’s all about love. Like kingstons dad really loved jazzs mom but jazzs mom chose jazzs dad so he’s trying to get back at jazzs dad and steal his entire family including his biological daughter. Idk though since jazzs dad is pretty much Mia in every book. In all I love the characters Bentley is my favorite. It’s a really good read that keeps you interested. I’m curious about the ending and can’t wait to see the result.
