Ruthless Titan

A Dark MM College Hockey Romance (North Shore Titans Hockey, Book 6)

De: E.V. Olsen

Narrado por: Joe Arden, Anthony Palmini

I never imagined the ruthless Titan would choose me as his rebellion, or that I’d become his shield. Hockey was supposed to be my ticket to stability, earning me a scholarship for an education I could never have afforded on my own. Until Connor Walsh, the ruthless star of the Crestwood hockey team and my captain, corners me with an ultimatum that changes everything. Marry him, or watch my scholarship—and my entire future—disappear. It's blackmail, pure and simple. A calculated move in whatever twisted game he's playing with his equally ruthless father. And I'm just a pawn he's willing to sacrifice. Now I'm trapped in their war, shielding the one person who should be my enemy and learning all over again that safety is just another thing people like me don’t get. I keep telling myself to hold back, that getting close only leads to hurt. But every day I spend with Connor pulls me in a little more. And falling for my husband is worse than anything the ruthless titan can threaten me with. Because love—family—well, they never last.

Joe Freakin Arden for the win!!!🥇

This is my fav story of the series. The narrators acting was amazing. Joe Arden's voice acting was absolutely amazing! As always, he takes you on the ride. They both were really good and I love the story.

Connor is a whole new level of crazy

I’m speechless. I think this is my favorite book of the series. I have no words for Connor and Ryan.

I thought the other titans were crazy, especially Alexei and Viktor, but Connor was a whole new level of crazy. He really just straight up kidnapped Ryan and forced him to marry him. Who does that?!😅

Obviously desperate times call for desperate measures and the only way Connor’s plans would work, would be if Ryan married him.

There’s so much about Connor that nobody else knows. No one suspects the living hell he’s in.

Ryan was such a sweet, gentle giant. He was hurting so much and Connor just made things worse for him.

Two broken souls that didn’t know how to deal with their pain but somehow managed to work together. Once Connor fell for Ryan, he was willing to burn down the world for him.

This is definitely going at the top of my relistens because it’s just that good! And that ending? I’m so excited to see what’s next because I need more!

Fantastic narration by Joe Arden and Anthony Palmini.

Narrators

listen anytime Joe Arden does his performance you know it's going to be 1000/10 he's quite emersive. Anthony Palmini is another that I enjoy thoroughly. Both Narrators brought life to this story and I enjoyed this book as much as the others. Great work all 👏 👏

Captivating

This book had me seated in a way I’ve never been seated before. I just could not put it down, I love Ryan so much that’s my baby boy. The really emotional moments had me soothing my iPad as if I was soothing Ryan himself. That epilogue though I can’t wait for what comes next.

🫠 I am floored. I’m broken. I… I don’t even know

From his first appearance in earlier books, I knew Ryan had a story to tell, but not this one! OMG. I was so excited about this book because, hello, forced marriage MM hockey romance? Sign me up immediately! 🏒🔥

I expected the usual Titan chaos and laughter, but then... someone hired a… (yeah, not gonna spoil it 😅). And Coach Becker’s brother is WHAT!? And Kai belongs to a secret society!? And the Serpents… what is even happening!? My head is still spinning 🤯

The author handled it all masterfully, the twists, the reveals, and that seamless sneak peek at what’s coming next. If this really is the end of the Titans, it’s a perfect conclusion and an incredible setup for whatever’s coming.

But let’s go back to Connor and Ryan. Who could’ve guessed that a half-baked plan to avoid an arranged marriage would lead to finding the love of your life, discovering things about yourself you did not know, and even gaining a father figure in your fake husband’s adoptive dad? 🥹💔 Like… that was definitely not on Connor’s bingo card when he blackmailed Ryan into marrying him 😂

I loved this book so much. The emotional growth, the connections, the heartbreak, everything hit perfectly. And as I said before, each book in this series gets better than the last. I can’t wait for what E.V. Olsen writes next.
