She had only tried it once. She took it as a sign and held back. She played but never let anyone in. She’s made mistakes in her past because of it so she has set up some rules. He made her break them. This time we get a look at Kali. She has a few dark spots but is a great detective and while she does have a rep she is respected for her skills. These first two books are merely to introduce our characters and tell us who we’re working with. Giving us a peek at the characters who will be the main focus during the series. Can’t wait to see where these two authors take us from here. Already we have a tragic past that is compounded with tragedy in her present. It’s gonna be interesting.
Kali Mann is a dedicated police officer, a gym addict and a men eater. She works hard, screws when needed but never lets any emotions or feelings in. She loved once; that was enough to keep her away from that all too sappy world.
When she crosses the line and is stuck with a partner she would rather walk away from, because of the things he makes her feel and slowly cracks her shell, things might change.
A new case brings them close but an old one might tear them apart.
I loved Kali! She is tough sexy girl loved by all her co-workers, wanted by most of them and well respected for her hard work. I loved the police scene, the investigation going on and to see Kali coming to life little by little.
I cannot wait to see what Love Inked will be like because Amy Stowe Manemann and Stacy Eaton working together on this new series is just awesome!
The second book of nine in this series…
Same broad brushstrokes as the first book but different characters. The female detective has a love them & leave them approach with men, many her colleagues, but only one remains her best friend. Her current partner is trying to crack her defences but she is determined not to get into a relationship. Looking forward to the rest of this series.
This story is about Kali. She is a detective and tends to sleep with her partners. Then she has to ask for a new one as she doesn’t want the distractions that will eventuate. Until her partner Keith buries his way under her skin. A serial killer still at work. A psychopath. Leads. Finally. Or perhaps not? Undercover. A ring. Another fabulous addition to this series. Loved it.
This is Kali’s back story and it about rips out your heart. She is so guarded and letting anyone past her walls into her battered heart is no small miracle. A must read!
Watch out for the Mann-eater. Detective Kali Mann has a rough past, and she has closed down her heart so as not to get hurt again. What will happen if she starts to let that wall around her heart crumble? In Love Torn, we are introduced to Detective Kali Mann and her partner.
Stacy Eaton knows how to tell a great story, and Juliana Solo delivered a great performance . I’m so invested in the characters… I’m anxiously awaiting the next book!
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
I loved this book by Stacy Eaton! Love Torn is the second book in the Twisted Love series by Stacy Eaton and Amy Manemann. It is a series about two female detectives Evie Harper and Kali Mann teaming up to take down a serial killer all along dealing with their pasts.
In Love Torn Keith Harvard and Kali Mann are partners and they work pretty well together, but Keith wants more from Kali and will prove to her that he will wait for her forever if he needs to.
Kali hasn’t opened her heart to anyone for years, but taking a chance with Keith might work out because he has found a way to break down her defenses.
I can’t wait to read more books in this series!
I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.
This is the second book in The Twisted Love Series. And what a series this is turning out to be. I am so looking forward to more and more from this duo of writers. Stacy Eaton started us off by giving us one kick a$$ detective Kali Mann. She is beautiful and can catch any mand and believes in the catch and release program. As a detective she is good really good. We get to know her partner Keith Harvard in this book and boy do we get to know how he feels about her. This book is pure Stacy Eaton (if you have read any of her books you understand that statement). She has given us a very good read and is setting us up for the next book in this series. It is only going to continue to get better and better as this series goes on and on.
