charliauthor 's review for:

Twisted Love by Ana Huang
2.5
emotional lighthearted mysterious sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

 I like Ana's writing a lot and having read a few of the Kings of Sin series, I wanted to go back and check out her more famous series.
The writing didnt disappoint but I thought the story was a little farfetched and dragged out for it to be taken remotely seriously. While this isnt the point with romance/smut lol this is something I prefer when reading and this just didnt deliver.
I enjoyed the grumpy/sunshine trope a lot but the turn around of the grump just felt too convenient for how grumpy he actually was. It also didnt match with his age. Oh I can ruin your whole family and dynasty at 26 years old because im just THAT ruthless. Okay, sure lol
There also wasnt enough spice for a spice book. Solid 2.5 on the spice-o-meter!
