Couldn’t put this book down!

Ava and Alex relationship took so many twists and turns, so,e expected and some really really unexpected. This book made me feel every emotion, so,e points were sad, others were funny I was actually laughing out loud, I felt joy and happiness, suspense and anger. The spice of their romance was off the scales and jeez they both knew it 

The ending gives you so much hope and joy, love really does make the world and can change even the most hurt and lost souls!

 Can’t wait to read the rest of this series, would 100% recommend this book but, please check the triggers beforehand as some scenes are very tough

I started reading in October last year, fell into a reading slump and continued the book in February this year.

Twisted Love is one of my favourite books. The fact that Alex is a tense, stern guy, but becomes soft around Ava is just amazing. The characters are extremely lovable and i genuinely want to be a part of Ava, Bridget, Jules and Stella’s friend group. The tropes are amazing. Personally, i found the part where he sang for her sweet and not cringe as others say. The book is great, although it gives a bit of wattpad vibes.

I really liked it. I've been in a reading slump lately, and this kinda helped me out of it a little, but towards the end I got kind of bored. It went from mafia romance to puppy love and became meh. I still liked it and want to continue the series though.

This series has been on my list for a little while. I didn't care for the narrators of this story (the woman's voice is very high pitched and the man's voice is oddly deep. Other than that, the story was  intriguing and intertwined. I love the true opposites attract/friends to lovers trope, and also that Alex Volkov has gotten involved with the Chen family based on the belief that their father killed his entire family. Alex becomes close to Ava's brother and then close to Ava while he has to look out for her. They begin a relationship of sorts, and Alex is seemingly very keen on protecting Ava, but he is certainly a morally grey alpha male type (not that this bothers me necessarily, lol). We learn in the end that Ava's father tried to kill Ava multiple times (she was not his biological daughter) and was not involved with the Volkov murders. Alex's uncle orchestrated the killings, which he finds out towards the end. To keep Ava in the dark and protect her, Alex lies to her about loving her and pretends to be on his uncle's side. This essentially ruins the trust in their relationship, and even after the kidnapping, Alex pretends not to love her and lets her move to London. He eventually does go back to her, but it takes some coaxing from her friend, and once he moves to London, Ava makes him work VERY hard to gain her trust back (which made me happy, I didn't want her to just take him back after all he put her through!). Finally, after about a year as friends/acquaintances in London, Alex sings a song for her at an art show. It was kind of romantic, but not really in Alex's character. The only thing was that he never sang in front of anyone (although he was a good singer), but he would sing for her. After this, they make up. I think overall, this was a very good story, and it captured my attention. The smut was also very good.
