I can totally understand why booktok girlies would question how and why Jules could forgive Josh for what he did. Because he did indeed mess up, twice. I am also wondering that but considering the experiences they’ve gone through together, I’d say the development and establishment of their relationship was pretty well done.
Many people say the Twisted series has: 3 millionaires and a Josh.
And I’ll be honest, I want a Josh. What’s wrong with a Josh? At least he isn’t as stalker-ish as the other three 🤦♀️
He had all the love languages.
Words of Affirmation - his way with Jules was to bicker. (No I’m not being sarcastic)
Physical touch - we know ;)
Quality time -
Gift Giving -
Acts of Service -
Overall, this book was pretty worth the read. I’d be honest and say that some characters and their plots are planned a little to basically, like the character Max. However, Josh Chen is the standard 🤩 (except his occasional clouded anger issues💀)

There is something addictive in this shit because I am obsessed. By far my favourite in the series. I was giggling and squealing and just truly having THE BEST time (until the 80 - 91% mark, but we shall overlook that). On to the next.

It is a perfect enemies-to-lovers book. Though I have to subduct a star for the (traumatic) s*x scenes. For me they were a bit too much. But that won‘t keep me from trying another of Ana Huang‘s books. The plot and storytelling is just too good. :D

Overall, this was fun. I’d say it’s tied with Love for my favorite so far. I like Jules more than Ava, but Alex more than Josh. I think J+J’s relationship arc is more realistic, but A+A’s dynamic is more entertaining.
The best part, though, hands down, was seeing the stage set for the next book, which is unabashedly the reason I’ve read the others. Christian is so whipped already and it’s delightful. ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)

Sexual content is explicit but always consensual. Sexual harassment is of one protagonist by a side character, in the form of using a sex tape as blackmail. There are mentions of death, near-death situations and child abuse from the protagonists’ pasts, and of blood and various injuries due to one of them working as an ER doctor. Things tagged minor are the methods of various deaths mentioned over the course of the book. It’s also mentioned that a side character was almost drowned as a child.sam_malaika's review against another edition
