Three friends walk into a bar . . . One walks out the fake girlfriend of a hot, bearded Scotsman. Fannin McGuire is up for promotion at Tate and Cane Enterprises, but first she has to make it through her stepsister’s wedding. To Fannin’s ex. Yep. Her ex-fiancé is about to be her new brother-in-law. One big happy family. And lucky her, she also gets to work with him. While Fannin is putting all of … putting all of her energy into her career, her ex is putting all of his energy into making her life hell. Just when Fannin is sure she’ll be attending the wedding without a plus one, in walks Jasper James to save the day. He’s the bartender at the Iron Flask, the account she’s trying to land, and everything she didn’t know she needed or wanted. Before Fannin knows what’s happening, Jasper is playing knight in shining armor and she likes it. And him. A lot. With his smooth Scottish accent, ridiculously good looks, and that beard? She doesn’t stand a chance.
Jasper isn’t in the habit of rescuing anyone. But when Fannin is confronted by her ex about her lack of a date for his upcoming nuptials, Jasper can’t help but step in. Her wild hair, violet eyes, and killer legs have him doing a few things he normally wouldn’t. Never mind that he shouldn’t be getting involved with the woman in charge of making the bar a global success.
Their fake relationship becomes more real than either thought it would. Now they’re at the mercy of their feelings when truths are twisted, and the lies don’t taste as smooth as the whisky

Twisted is uber yummy, hot and down right sexy! Like it will light your panties up in flames!! But if that doesn’t get you then Jasper’s beard will!! That Man is sex on stick!! That will have you begging for him to talk dirty in that Scottish accent!! Yes Mandi Beck killed it once again!! She brought the Dirty to New York and then some!!! Holy smokes I need new underwear now!!! #ONECLICK
Mandi Beck has written an Epic read. I can’t express how much I loved this book. I could not put it down. Jasper (swoon) and Fannin are strong, developed characters that singed the pages at times, while at other times they made me laugh out loud. This story is witty, fun, and sexy. Even though this is a novella, it is a complete story, and one of my favorites so far this year. Mandi Beck is a very talented storyteller. If you have not read her books, you are missing out on some wonderful reads.
Update to October 2018 release:
I originally read Twisted by Mandi Beck when it was released as part of the Imperfect Love Kindle World and loved it. Now it’s being re-released on its’s own with additional content. More Jasper and Fannin and I loved it! We get to see into their future and how strong their love is. Loved it even more and cannot recommend any higher!
See below for original review for Reviews From The Heart:
Loved this book! Jasper James was swoony and dreamy! And sexy and hot. And well all the things you want in a male hero. I laughed so much and loved every minute of it.
Fannin and Jasper were so hot together. They were both so likable. I loved their friends and the story will pull you right in!
We all know Mandi for her angst filled, take your heart out of your chest and stomp on it stories, but in Twisted we see a different side of her. Truly a great read that will leave you happy.
Happy reading!
Jasper James, with his beard and Scottish accent was so sexy!! I loved how protective he was of Fannin! Everytime he said aye, I swooned hard!!! I love love him! I loved Fannin, she was awesome and sassy! I loved them together, they had amazing chemistry and hot sexy scenes!
Previously released as a part of Kindle Worlds, Twisted by Mandi Beck has been given an update and additional bonus content. Even if you’ve read it before, I would definitely give it another read. Fannin and Jasper held me captive just as much as the first time I read it. I mean, who doesn’t love a hot Scottish guy and a fiesty heroine. Toss in a condescending ex and a narcissistic stepsister determined to cause trouble and you’ve got a fabulous story that will leave you wanting more.
I’ll never look at Scotland and beards the same way again…
I absolutely fell in love with Jasper the minute he graced the pages of this story. This swoony, sexy Scotsman (say that three times fast) knows his way around dirty talking seduction. He’s as alpha as they come, but he has this underlying sweetness to him that hits you right in the feels.
Fannin is fantastic. I love how she’s always the consummate professional…until she’s not. She’s quick-witted, thick-skinned, and completely unable to resist Jasper’s charms. Once you meet Jasper, you’ll see why. And her strength is amazing.
Put these two together and the chemistry between them is insane, not to mention the heat level in this book is super hot! This is a fun and dirty romance that hits all the right notes.
Oh man! What a delightfully witty and sexy and sock it to ’em read Twisted was! If there is one thing Mandi Beck excels at, it’s writing the dirty talk and Jasper James is hands down the CEO of Dirty Talk Uni.
I adored Fannin and all of her sass. But she was also so classy. She handled the ridiculous situation she found herself in the middle of much more gracefully than I ever would have. It didn’t hurt that she had a beast of a man, Jasper James, helping her out.
WHEWEEEE Jasper James! Tall, whisky loving, bearded and with an accent. And the deliciously dirty things he said with that accent- had me blushing! AND what’s even better was just how much he adored Fannin- from her wild hair to her smart mouth and tender heart. There was no denying the insta-lust and the feelings that developed as they spent time together.
When the weasels came out to play and tried to tear Fannin down, it was Jasper who stepped up big time. But that wasn’t so great for the burgeoning relationship. But fear not, Jasper is a man with a plan.GAH!!! I absolutely LOVED how this short, sexy and sweet read ended.
Jasper and Fannin are a 110% can’t miss delicious treat. What is a girl to do but grin and bear it when your ex-fiancé is now marrying your step sister. Don’t get her wrong, there is no love lost or pining away to be had for the cheating nitwit, but talk about awkward. Even more awkward would be showing up for the blessed day solo. In steps Jasper James on his white horse to keep her from suffering his nightmare alone. What was supposed to be a favor from a veritable stranger turns in to so much more. Jasper doesn’t know what compelled him to step up and rescue the fair maiden Fannin, but he’s not regretting it in the slightest. She is the first woman in eons that’s makes him yearn and want, so there’s no questioning the gravity that is her. He was just supposed to be her cover, but the more time they spend together the clearer it becomes that what he wants to cover is something completely different. Now he will just have to come clean about just what kind of knight he is.
I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this book
RUN now hurry, Before everyone claims this hot Scotsman Let’s break it down, Accent ,Sexy, bearded did I mention he’s EVERYTHING. The plot is perfection I only wish it was a never ending novel! Oh Jasper I think I’ve fallen hard and I’ve been ruined . Fannin is pretty epic herself and together these Two are page turners. Well played Author Mandi Beck! Now I’m trolling google for kilts and whiskey, read it you’ll see!
Mandi never disappoints! Loved reading James and Fannin’s story. Loved the banter and insta-connection. Most the supporting characters were awesome too, especially Shelby. Loved her attitude!
A quick sexy read. A hot bearded Scot, a strong heroine, add some whiskey and you’ve got an enjoyable read.
This novella is everything! Twisted is the story of Fannin and Jasper. And it is HOT AS HELL!
Jasper James is everything you could possibly want in a male. Sexy, dreamy, fun, oh and he’s Scottish! I didn’t even know I liked Scottish men but sign me up!!! Fannin is my girl crush! Seriously, Fannin is amazing and even though she is in a horrible situation (her ex is marrying her step sister) she pulls up her big girl panties and gives as good as she gets.
When Jasper finds himself in the situation to help Fannin out, the man steps up. BIG TIME. I loved how he had no qualms about it, he just knew. And Fannin, well, she totally signed up to ride that train
I fell in love with Jasper and Fannin’s story, I fell in love with their friends and even though there was a tiny bit of drama, I laughed and was just sucked right into their world! I love how the novella ended and I felt it could not have ended better!
