Tongue is hands-down the best MC romance book I have ever read/listened to! I am vested in all of KL’s Ruthless Kings characters,but Tongue has always had me intrigued. I wanted to know more about this mysterious man who has so many layers to his personality, and I needed to know what made him the way he is (a scary mofo). I felt like he had a heart of gold under all of those scars! Well KL did not disappoint on her crazy ride as we first find out what happened to Tongue growing up that made him the man he is today. It was a truly heartbreaking what happened to him as a child, and his internal monologue gutted me. I knew that there was more to him than just a ruthless killer lurking in dark corners and cutting peoples tongues out. He knows he’s damaged, he feels misunderstood and wants to be a better man. Especially when he sees Daphne for the first time through the bookstore window where she works. He is obsessed with her, he stalks her, always watching her from the shadows. Daphne can sense someone is watching her, feels a presence. Tongue feels unworthy of her, that he’s not good for anybody which breaks my heart and he tries to stay away from her. Well he can’t! She is the missing piece inside him that he has been searching for. Right from the start she was never scared of him. I love that Daphne is a very complex character. I do not want to spoil and give away too much about our heroin. Their story kept me on my toes as there are very many twists and turns. They both excepted each other for who they were, and embraced it together. Their love is so INTENSE and ALL CONSUMING! This is a story that even psychopaths need and want love to. I’m so glad Tongue found his Comet (Daphne)!
The sex scenes were incredibly sexy, VERY erotic, EXTREMELY dark, and VERY kinky. Disclaimer…..there’s also blood play.
As the story progresses they find huge bumps in their journey together. This is just so well written so detailed I felt so many different things. I felt uncomfortable, sad, elated proud, mad, pure happiness, and shed many tears all along with these characters.
Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell did a phenomenal job narrating! They are my absolute FAVORITE narration team, and they came to slay me with this book! Joe as Tongue gave one of his best performances I’ve heard in a very long time. His tone and inflection made me have goosebumps and so many times he sent shivers right down my spine. He does an amazing job bringing this very dark,mentally damaged man to life. He falls in love for the very first time, which he thought he was incapable of that emotion. It makes him want to be a better person. Some of the scenes were so intense ,such raw emotions, Joe did such a superb job conveying these emotions and making you feel like you were right there with him. Outstanding job! Maxine Mitchell who plays Daphne……wow! Again, one of my favorite performances to date from her, I was blown away! Daphne I would think would not be an easy character to play. She has so many layers, MANY different emotions, situations and she flowed seamlessly throughout the whole book! I was utterly captivated!!
This is a love story. A pretty wickedly wild one but , everyone deserves love. His darkness wants to consume her light and she wants his darkness to consume her. I am just so beyond in love with Tongue and Daphne story with its ups and downs. The only thing left to say is I hope this is not the last we hear about them and hopefully there will be a book 2 of their story! I don’t want this story to ever end!

Buckle up, buttercup. You’re about to get on an emotional roller coaster.
This is the book I’ve been waiting for the entire series and was not disappointed. KL hits every emotion in this book. Despair, rage, horror, betrayal, humor, longing, happiness, ... hope. It’s the true definition of love in all its raw glory. Accepting the person as they are. This isn’t Disney’s version of glossing over what should be a toxic relationship. The characters acknowledge what should be wrong and recognize they have allowed traumas of their past and others to have defined them for too long. This book may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it is my double shot of Fireball.
