Alex Volkov is a devil blessed with the face of an angel and cursed with a past he can’t escape.
Driven by a tragedy that has haunted him for most of his life, his ruthless pursuits for success and vengeance leave little room for matters of the heart.
But when he’s forced to look after his best friend’s sister, he starts to feel something in his chest:
A crack.
A melt.
A fire that could end his world as he knew it.

Ava Chen is a free spirit trapped by nightmares of a childhood she can’t remember.

MY REVIEW.
4 Stars from Tiffany!
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Twisted for Sure!
Well, Ana Huang almost lost me with about the first half of this book then BAM! All kinds of stuff happened and I couldn't finish it fast enough.
"I wasn't a protector, I was a destroyer. I broke hearts, crushed business opponents, and didn't care about the aftermath."
We are given a bit of an opposites attract scenario with Alex and Ava. The quote above says it all, the guy is an ass. An un-redeeming ass for quite a bit of the book. Sure they both have some heavy duty pasts to work out, but a guy this bristly was a bit hard to take...at first.
Ava isn't naïve per say, but sheltered in a way for sure. It's just her, her father and her older brother Josh, who is jetting off to Central America, which is where Alex comes in to play. Josh and Alex have been best friends for eight years and while he's off to Central America for a year long internship, Josh asks Alex to keep an eye on his little sister and we all know where this story is going to end up.
"She was mine. She just didn't know it yet."
For a good first part of the book, I wasn't really jiving with this Alex and Ava thing. He was a dick and she was just blah. Fast forward a few more chapters and things really start to get cooking. Both of thier pasts are eluded to as we read along, however the nitty gritty of them and how far fetched they were, finally caught my interest.
The book is well written and worth sticking around for. I appreciated the suspense element of it and thought Ana Huang did a nice job with some complicated story lines. The book is first in the Twisted series and was a nice start.
READ AN EXCERPT.
Something smelled delicious, like spice and heat. I wanted to wrap it around me like a blanket.
I snuggled closer to the source, enjoying the strong, solid warmth beneath my cheek. I didn’t want to wake up, but I’d promised Bridget I would volunteer at a local pet shelter with her this morning, before my afternoon shift at the gallery.
I allowed myself one more minute of coziness—had my bed always been this big and soft—before I opened my eyes and yawned.
Weird. My room looked different. No photograph prints papering the walls, no vase of sunflowers by the bed. And did my bed just move by itself?
My eyes latched onto the broad expanse of bare skin beneath me, and my stomach dropped. I looked up, up—straight into a pair of familiar green eyes. Eyes that stared back at me with no hint of the humor from last night.
He flicked his gaze down. I followed it…and realized, to my abject horror, that I was touching Alex Volkov’s dick. Unintentionally, and he had on sweats, but still.
I. Was. Touching. Alex. Volkov’s. Dick.
And it was hard.
COMING SOON.
