Impact: Twisted Hearts Love Story
by Autumn Sand
This story was so full of emotion. This is Manny’s story and the book starts out at time when he was young and where one single tragic event changes his life forever. This story goes from the present to past and back and forth throughout the book, it was very easy to follow. There is tragedy, heartbreak, danger, and love in this wonderfully crafted story. There are also some unexpected twists and turns. I highly recommend this book, this is definitely a story you won’t want to put down once you start reading it. This book can be read as a standalone, but it is my recommendation that you read all the books in this series because the books are awesome and the author does an exceptional job bringing you into these stories.

Impact is the second book I have read in this series and can be read as a standalone. The story focuses on main character Manuel aka Manny. I love how in depth the author goes into his back story with this novel. The life he led from an early age was difficult and something I hated that he had to live through. I do feel that it helped him become strong and independent in the long run. The supporting characters also had amazing detail and development. I felt that the story was also easy to follow and organized. The story would switch from present to past but the author labeled each section accordingly to keep the reader focused and moving forward. This was such an excellent book and I highly recommend it. I definitely look forward to reading more from this author.
I just finished reading Impact: Twisted Hearts Love Story, by Autumn Sand.
This series has been epic to say the least!
I’ve fallen in love with so many characters in this series and of course, Manny and Zoe are no different.
This book was so engaging and exciting – it took some surprising turns at times and it really did have me wishing I could read faster.
We start out by reading about Manny as a young boy before it cuts to him being an adult.
We continue getting flashbacks of his younger self that answers so many questions (many that I didn’t even knew I had), while we follow him in the present.
Zoe and Manny have gone through a lot – both separately and together – one can only wonder if they will get to a good place with this much history.
Autumn Sand has a way of really pulling you in and I’m so glad I found this series!
Now I’m gone hunting for her next one!
This is not my first book that I have read by Autumn Sand and it will definitely not be the last. This is the 4th book in the Twisted Hearts Love Story Series and is one of my favorites. These books are all standalone’s but I feel you get more from reading them in order. This book is about Manny. Manny has not had a wonderful life and is constantly running from his feelings and the love of his life Zoe. Zoe has survived a lot on her own and is afraid to hope for something with Manny when he keeps hurting her. These too have such a push pull relationship but there is always hidden reasons behind both of their decisions. Can these two untwist and find what is right in front of them? I really enjoyed this book and it definitely left an “Impact” on me.

Book 4

This is a romance like you have never read before. Full length novel with many highs and lows.
This is one of the best series I have read on romance. It is not just a tumble, it’s a full on reading experience. You will Read how Manny and Zoe stumble around their lives. What will bring them back together, as well as the choices they were faced with in this story.
Autumn Sands takes you on a unforgettable rollercoaster of, looking for romance as well as adventure. She will hit all of your emotions. So be prepared! As this will be one of those books you can’t put down. The characters in this story are strong as well as fighters. They have both had hard lives, and yet come back together. This story is a page turner! Take the chance and read this series. Make sure to have a box of tissue close by.You won’t be disappointed.
Impact by Autumn Sand
Stars-4
This contemporary love story that is filled with ups and downs, which provoked many different emotions. This story is told through Manny’s point of view in the form of flashbacks. I thought that that was a great way of telling the story. Autumn Sand did a wonderful job with this book. She was able to produce great characters that really showed great growth and change!
Manny has had a difficult life and hides his pain behind a tough guy facade but when his childhood love comes back into his life, his weakness for her is on full display and that is gonna cause a lot of problems.
I wasn’t super happy with how to chapters were laid out chronologically but it wasn’t too difficult to keep up with the timeline. As a standalone, this is a pretty good story so if anyone is hooked by the characters, plot, or vivid imagery, you have to check out the rest of the series.
Impact is only my second book by Autumn Sand and I will admit it’s been a while since I have read a book by her. Impact reminded me of why I like this author. This dark second chance romance with the roller-coaster of emotions was addicting. The edgy twist and turns took me down the dark rabbit hole and I couldn’t leave until I finish this book. The flashbacks helped me understand more of what Manny has been through and what his relationship with Zoe was like.
If you love a good anti-hero bad boy with a twisted past then you need to read Impact. Plus you have to not mind the mature content and some steamy scenes.
Looking forward to the next series Autumn writes.
Impact (Twisted Hearts Love Story #4) by Autumn Sand was an okay read that kept me intrigued till the end.
The fourth book in the Twisted Hearts series, and this time we are following the brewing Manny. You meet him early on in the series, and I’ve always want to know more about him. In saying that, this book can be read as a standalone, but the books should be read in order, as they do follow a consistent timeline, so there are some spoilers in this book.
On a whole this book, was okay. I did like the way it opened, we got to see a young Manny and his heart break, then the kicker when it jumps to his current life, where it plays out like a Crime drama TV show. That really set the stage and drew me into the story. Now, as much as I like time jumps, they can be over done and this book, unfortunately fell into that trap. There are ways to explain the past without it constantly jumping back and forth. It makes the reading jumping and confusing, especially when it takes away from the main plot. I believe that if it was cleaned up a bit, it would have rounded out this original read and brought it fully home.
Overall this is a good unique read that will keep you on your toes, as there are twist, turns, heat and action. So please take my recommendation and my approval that you will get sucked into this compelling second change romance.
Happy Reading

Impact by Autumn Sand is a novel within the Twisted Hearts Love Story series. This book is brilliant and so well done.
A little unusual we get to see this whole book told from Manny’s POV which I really liked. It isn’t often we get to see something entirely from the male characters perspective. I really enjoyed how the book bounced from past to present. It was a great way to really get to know this character more and helped make you feel like you were on the journey with him.
This has been a brilliant series so far. Well written, emotional, the author really knows how to grab your attention. And while this can be read as a stand-alone I would definitely recommend reading them all as they are very good.
Impact is a story about the life that got away and how we cope with it. It was full of emotions and it definitely kept me flipping pages to see what would happen next. I felt like I was there watching this whole storyline happen and I love that about Autumn Sand, she is talented for sure. I think the thing I liked most about this story is the tension and angst, it was so palpable. I have read this author before and with each book I dive into, I see another perspective on the world in which we live. I think it takes a lot to fully transport a person into another’s reality and I believe this book does that really well.

Impact is the fourth book in the Twisted Hearts Series by Autumn Sand. This series should be read in order to help you understand some of the plots and there are recurring characters. This book features Manny and the book bounces backwards and forward from the past to the present. I couldn’t put this book down from beginning to end. This book had me emotions running rampant from happy to sad. I’m glad that I read this book and series and look forward to reading mor by Autumn Sand. I highly recommend this book, series and author.
Impact is the forth book in the Twisted Hearts Love Story but can be read as a stand-alone. I really enjoyed this book and I think that this author is turning out to be one of my favs! This book sucked me in and I couldn’t put it down. It was awesome to read Manny’s story and seeing it from his point of view. He has been through a lot and it was nice to see where his story was headed and where it ended up. There was twists and turns and I loved every moment of it! I am looking forward to reading more by this author and I would recommend this series to a friend.

Impact by Autumn Sand is the 4th book in the Twisted Hearts Love Story series, a series I would highly recommend! This story is incredibly detailed, twisted, dark, heart wrenching, shocking and very action-packed. I was hooked from the very first chapter as Autumn took me on a roller coaster ride of emotions through Manny’s story in both the past and present.
I loved how it flipped from past to present, it had me trying to piece everything together and kept me on my toes the whole way through and had me in complete shock as the story unfolded. I honestly loved everything about this book!
This series is one that should not be missed, I would definitely recommend it to others!
I am still reeling from my time spent with Impact, the fourth and final book in Autumn Sands Twisted Hearts series. I would have to say that calling this my favorite of the four is difficult because each of the stories are wonderful and should be enjoyed. Impact is written like the others so that you could read it on its own. Impact is fully loaded with the hot and steamy Manuel Leon, or Manny. A well known playboy of his time has to face love head on in this one and it is a hot and sultry journey. I loved ow Manny stands out among other alpha males that I have read this year and must say bravo to Ms. Sand for making me love him so much when I honestly thought I wouldn’t. I am dying to get my hands on the next novel that spins off this fantastic series!

5 stars
While this is book 4 in the series, it can be read as a standalone.
We follow Manny and see the whole book through his POV. Flashing back and forth was very needed in this book and done very well. The story she wove with this kept me flipping pages thinking I had it all figured out, but I didn’t!
Im sad to see this series end but can’t wait for the Spinoff series! Bring on more of this great and talented author.
Wow, what can I say about Impact by Autumn Sand. This is the 4th and final (sob!) book in the Twisted Hearts Love Story series and, for me, it was the best in the series. Talk about leaving the best till last! Each book in this series can be read as a stand-alone but I’d suggest that you read all 4 books for a couple of reasons. The first being that the series is so good, it would be shame not to read it all. Secondly, as the main male characters appear in all 4 books you really get a deeper insight into their characters as the books progress.
From reading the first 3 and getting to know Manny, you would never realise he had so much going on in his life. He’s always been the laid back one, happy to spread his ‘free loving ways’ to any and all woman. You’d never know the pain and heartache that he’s gone through.
This book will totally grip you from the very beginning and not let you go. It’s hard hitting, gritty, thrilling, heartbreaking, hell it has everything!!
I loved the way this story was told going from present time, back to Manny’s younger days and also counting down the events of the previous 2 months. This did an amazing job of keeping you on the edge of your seat wondering what the author was going to throw at you next. And by God you definitely get thrown a few crackers that you did not see coming.
If you love a great romantic thriller, then this book, and the whole series, will take you through a roller coaster of emotions and leave you wanting more. Highly recommend!
Impact (Twisted Hearts Love Story #4) by Autumn Sand is a well written contemporary romance. After reading the stories for Tony, Tick, and Magnum, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Manny’s story. Autumn Sand did not hold back in this story; we caught glimpses of Manny’s character in the other stories, yet he is so much more than what could have been perceived. The story is riveting and creates another piece of Manny giving his character unbelievable depth and growth above what may be anticipated. Of course, there is mystery, drama, suspense and chemistry in bundles within the pages. A great read!!
Impact (Twisted Hearts Love Story #4) by Autumn Sand is a five star novel. This novel can be read as a standalone and I highly recommend it. We start the story when Manny is just a little boy. His mother has just died and he knows his life is about to change forever. After going to live with the father he HHS’s never met, he can only dream about being able to go back to the life he used to have and the care of his family that has been torn apart. As hard as he tries, he cannot find any love in his new life. Then he runs off and heads back to New York expecting things to be normal. What he finds there is not what he is expecting. The love of his life is not the same girl as when they were kids. People keep leaving him when he needs them the most. When he finally realizes the love he has for a friend, it might be too late or he thinks he is too damaged. This book will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions and just praying for Manny to find his place and find happiness.
Impact was a New York based contemporary romance/ thriller in the Twisted Hearts series, telling us Manny’s story. Manny’s mother dies when he is young leading to him having to move away from his family to live with his estranged father. While there he develops an obsession with returning to New York to be with his childhood friend Demaris. The result of following this dream would shape his life.
This was the first book I had read by Autumn Sand and it was a mixed read for me. I enjoyed how the action was non-stop and I liked the way the main characters were written but I didn’t entirely identify with them. I am not sure if this was because of the jumping back and forward between different timelines or because I hadn’t read the other books in the series. I felt like I never truly got to know Manny because it was like he was two different characters. Zoe was more likeable but I’m not sure why she kept getting dragged back into the life she was clearly too good for. There were lots of twists and turns in the book and it kept me entertained. A good read for a bit of escapism after a busy week.
