Twisted Kingdom, the final book is here and we have all the answers we've been waiting for. Aiden's still … well, you know, but let's be real, that wasn't going to change ;-) 

Naturally, dark romances aren't for everyone, it really pushes you to read outside of your comfort zone. Yeah, there were definitely a couple things that I could have done without and didn't really seem necessary to mention. But Elsa used it to hurt Aiden knowing she'd regret it. But that's what these two do. They're something wild, but I was still here for them and ready for the ride they were going to take me on. 

Rina is an absolute mastermind with her characters and Aiden is the perfect example of that. She gave us this cruel, menacing hero that is pretty much a sociopath, but even he had some character development throughout their story. And despite everything, you can't help, but love him a little. He's honest, cunning and intense through and through. 

In this one, we get to know all of Elsa and she definitely has a bit of a dark side to her that's perfectly matched to Aiden. I loved the mystery behind their story and just everyone that was involved. It's kind of crazy and yeah, messed up. But wow, what. a. story. 

I'll be honest, I didn't think this needed three books, but much like Aiden and Elsa, I was obsessed. Rina wrote an intriguing story with some very memorable characters. From all the twists and turns, I couldn't put it down. 
There's more to come with this series and I can't wait!
