A lot of hating, a lot of anger…. A lot of sex… 😂
Book had the PLOT for sure, reading into Jule’s back story and hearing about her life was super interesting. I will say towards the end when the climax of the plot occurs, she is just about dumber than a box of rocks in my opinion, but… good for the plot.
Josh Chen… ?!!!!!! Let me just go die, this man is FERAL, but again-great for the plot.
Overall I loved this book, could’ve been a bit shorter, but it was a nice medium paced, focused read
Overall
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

⚠️⚠️⚠️This review contains spoilers!! Spoilers below ⚠️⚠️⚠️
Somehow, each book in this series continues to get better!
I thought for sure this book because it is enemies to lovers, and that is typically not my favorite trope, wouldn't be my favorite Twisted book. But so far, I think this is. Ana Huang might be becoming a new favorite author for me.
I love that these books have strong friend groups, enjoyable steamy scenes, but also captivating plots aside from the romance.
I felt for Jules and Josh as they navigated their traumas and daddy/mommy issues and how they ultimately made those hard decisions and handled things, in order to help them grow and be able to move on without letting those truamas control them. I also enjoyed seeing more of the softer side of Alex and how he and Josh talked and worked on repairing their broken friendship. Jules acknowledgment of growing up and how it feels to be an adult and have less time for friends and friendships changing as people marry was so relatable and described very well.
I would definitely recommend this series! It can be a bit corny at times, but so can any romance book, but these books leave me hugging the book against my chest and believing in love. They also make me reflect on my own friendships, parent relationships and traumas- in a good way I think- and I think that says a lot about the author's ability to write relatable and complex life-like characters/relationships.
And I love how Ana tied in Christian- the love interest in the next book-into this series as well. I am definitely intrigued to learn more about Stella and Christian!
