Reviews with content warning for Kidnapping - Mentiras do amor

In my opinion, this is the best twisted book and was a great way to wrap up the series. The book had funny moments (Josh's jealousy towards Alex playing chess with Christian) to more serious moments like Stella's stalker and her family. The best character in the book and in the series overall, I have to give it to Mr. Unicorn.

Firrst off I am biased because I don't love Ana Huang's writing, but they always seem to hook me just like Twisted Lies. This book is chessy and unrealistic. There were many parts of the plot that didn't add up to me and those unrealistoc parts dampned the book for me.

Out of the whole series I would say this book is 3rd and the 1st book is last. To be fair even in the book Ana Huang states that it is cheesy so I don't really fault her. I just didn't particularly get entranced by this book because of that, but her writing intruged me enough to rread thhe whole series so.

“Twisted Lies” the fourth book in Anna Huang’s Twisted series features Stella Alanso the 4th woman in a group of friends who met when they became roommates in college. Stella is a Social Media blogger and fashion girly who has spent many years cultivating her social media presence. After college, she begins work for a Washington DC fashion magazine and has the worst boss ever. When Stella is invited to a dinner/interview with a fashion brand that loves and misses calls from her boss she is fired from that job. In the meantime, a stalker from her past has reemerged and the only person she knows who might be able to help her is Christian Harper the owner of the building that she lives in and Harper Security and the person who she decides to fake date to get more followers and hopeful the new brand ambassador deal. Do Stella and Christian move beyond their contracted fake relationship? Can their relationship survive when lies come to the surface? I enjoyed this story and its twists and turns.

WOW! Wowowow! Christian Harper is all I wanted out of Alex Volkov and didn't get! Christian is truly my second favorite man from the twisted series and this book did not disappoint. I went into this with high expectations and these expectations were met and more! I loved Stella as a character and her internal struggles were something that I resonated with, and the guessing game with the stalker and the security mole was a fun game I played through out the book (which, I guessed the mole right heck yeah).

As for plot, I loved the stalker plot and I loved the small snip bits we get of Christian's work (aka, the office scene), I even liked Christian's character and I enjoyed the fact that all four Twisted men were together in scenes, their dynamic was great and I even ended up warming up to Alex which is shocking considering I didn't like him too much in his original book. As for Stella, I really reallly liked her as the main girl, her actions made sense and I really liked her personality. Stella was honestly a wild card for me when going in because she wasn't really relevant in the other three books so I couldn't get an opinion and I'm honestly happy about that. This book was genuinely a joy and I'm so excited to start the "King of" series since the main character of the first one seems intriguing since he was also in this book.
