For Mack McKinley and his team of GhostWalker killing machines, urban warfare is an art. But despite a hard-won knowledge of the San Francisco streets, Mack knows from experience that too many things can still go wrong. Danger was just another part of the game - and now he's come face-to-face with a woman who can play just as tough.She's Jaimie, a woman with a sapphire stare so potent it can destroy a man. Years ago she and Mack had a history - volatile, erotic and electric. Then she vanished. But now she's walked back into Mack's life again, as a spy with more secrets than are good for her. Against all odds, she's hooking up with Mack one more time to take on an enemy that could destroy them both, or bring them back together in one hot, no-holds-barred adrenaline rush.

MY REVIEW
Summary:
Mack McKinley, leader of one of the teams of Ghostwalkers, on a op, he finds Jaimie, the one woman who has held his heart. All of his team including to women who includes Jaimie, grew up together on the streets. But when Mack made a mistake years ago with Jaimie, she left him and with her his heart. Jaimie, even though it killed her to leave Mack, she knew it would be for the best, needing more out of a relationship than based on sex, she wanted and needed love, and never felt that she could find that from Mack, but then now that she has built a life for herself, doing what she loves, Mack and his brothers have found her. Mack is shocked to see Jaimie in a place he least expected, and is now more determined to keep her in his life…no matter what is at stake he plans on keeping her….

The Hero (Mack McKinley)
Mack, leader of his team and his brother, men whom he grew up with on the streets, is capable and good at what he does. Years ago, Jaimie left him with no word, just disappeared on him, and know he has found her again. Mack knows that Jaimie’s life is at risk, and that it is up to him and his team to find out whats wrong and to protect her. Meanwhile though, the desire he has always felt for her, is alive again and much more powerful…..

The Heroine (Jaimie)
Jaimie, has always loved Mack, and his team , her brothers she has missed desperately these past years since she left them. Jaimie, has found a life for herself, doing something that she loves. However now that Mack is back in her life, her life is spiraling downward. Her life is in danger, but she has risked everything to protect Mack and her boys, and won’t risk her heart again until she knows for a certainty that Mack’s feelings for her are based more on love than sexual interest.


My Thoughts 
Ruthless Game is the eight installment in the Ghostwalker series. I just love Christine Feehan, and she is my favorite paranormal author. The Ghostwalker series are thrilling and exciting, and never a dull moment. Street Game is where we learn about another Ghostwalker team, that grew up together on the streets, learning to survive with only each other at their backs. They are all Ghostwalkers, and I loved how tightly knit they all are. Jaimie and Mack have been lovers before, but now fate has brought them together once more, where danger and intrigue are all the more intense, and the desire between them even more so than before. Such a thrilling love story, so action packed that it left me breathless till the very end!!!!


My Favorite Quote 
“Like hell. Like hell I’ll stay away from you.” He stepped closer, his breath coming in ragged gasps. He burned for her. Every moment of every day. He couldn’t think straight without her. She still his mind. Made him human.
