All Reanna “Ray” Adams wanted was a fresh start somewhere that wasn’t her drug head mother’s house. With her best friend and her boyfriend by her side, Reanna found shelter in the small town of Hampton, Georgia. But a night out with her best friend changed everything. Twisted was one of the busiest bars in Hampton. It was also the last place she ever thought she would see him. Miles Conrad. He … used to be her best friend. He used to be a good person. Until he wasn’t. Reanna never thought she would see him again, not after the situation he left behind. But as the truth of what really happened all those years ago unraveled, Reanna realized that she might not know Miles or anyone close to her at all. All it took was one truth. One twisted lie. To shatter everything.

Emily Rose has delivered an excellent novel. The characters and storyline are fantastic. This a slow burn novel that will leave you craving more. Ms. Rose’s writing style is wonderful and easy to read. I simply cannot wait to begin the next book in this series.
Five hot flames for Twisted!!!
If you want a story this is the one to divulge yourself in. This has many wonderful characters that give a total background history and twists and turns. I found myself totally invested in this novel that takes place in Georgia. This is totally a love story that keeps you invested in the storyline and keeps your attention. Emily Rose does an excellent job developing the characters and the storyline. This is one of the better novels I have read so far this year; although it is a series it will keep you wanting to see what will happen next. This is a love story with a lot of baggage and you want to keep reading to see how it all gets sorted out. I was amazed how much I became engulfed with this story and couldn’t wait to read the sequel.
This was an arc provided to me by the author Emily Rose.
This is a new author to me, but I will certainly be looking out for her work in the future! Miles and Ray have a history, and when they meet up unexpectedly in a pub, there chemistry is still there. This is a great love / hate, and second chance romance story, which is an emotional roller coaster journey throughout. This story is filled with angst, twists, and is an intense and thrilling story, which had me intrigued and hooked throughout. I look forward to reading the next story in this addictive series.
Everything she thought she knew was a lie. The people who had her back, well it wasn’t what she thought. Nothing was what she thought. When she saw him again her world flipped, not just because she saw him but because there was so much to say. Once friends, now enemies?? How did they get here and how do they move one. This is my first read by this author and man does she twist it up. Not really sure what happens next and how they move on we get to witness their dance. Yeah sometimes it got a bit much but it’s a great read from an author I definitely want more of. This first book of the series sets the stage for lies and manipulation, leaving broken hearts and friendships ruined. An emotional read that lives up to it’s name twisted indeed.
From the first page I was drawn in. Miles hooks you, he is alpha but at the same time a softie when it comes to the people he cares about. Ray the girl from his past whom he’s always been drawn to, steps back into his life and turns it upside down. It was an emotional roller coaster ride you don’t want to get off of. This story shattered my heart then put it back together again. The chemistry between Miles and Ray is off the charts hot. Once in a while I wanted to throat punch Miles but in the end he redeemed himself ten fold. Such a great read, I highly recommend this book.
I really enjoyed reading ‘Twisted’. It is very well written with wonderful characters and an amazing storyline with lots of twist and turns.
One twisted lie from a couple of her friends changed everything while they were all still in high school.
When Ray moves away for college the last person she expected to find in her new town was Miles Conrad. Miles was the one who was hurt the most by the lie told so long ago and now the truth will finally come to light. Ray is devastated when the truth is revealed and even more so with what it takes for her to find out the truth.
Some mistakes are forgotten others can never be forgiven.
I highly recommend!
Ray & Danny go out to a bar near the school the attendant, after getting fake IDs. They run into Miles who is from their past and Owens (Danny’s brother/Ray’s boyfriend) ex-best friend. There is a lot of history and bad blood there on both sides, because of lies, youth, and deception.
I totally loved this second chance romance between Miles Conrad Reanna “Ray” Adams!
Packed with betrayal, tons of emotions, angst and some hot as sin sex scenes! Miles and Ray and real and raw and need to fight their way to a happily ever after…that is if there will be one!
Would have loved to have had a bit more of an ending, but can’t wait to dive into book two of this series to see what happens!
This is the first time I have read Emily Rose. I enjoyed this book. It was quite a roller coaster ride. Miles move away from his hometown to get a new start. The girl that he loved that never noticed him shows up at the bar he now runs. Miles never thought he’d see Ray again. The trials of second chance love. I loved these characters and the chemistry between Miles and Ray was off the charts.
Twisted is emotional, sexy, and well, a little bit twisted. This book should’ve come with a warning about violence, not the violence within it’s pages, but the violence these characters make you want to inflict. Ray and Miles had me actually talking to them, well, more like yelling at them, and more than once I wanted to give someone in this book a good old fashioned punch in the mouth. And I absolutely loved it! Even as these people frustrated the living daylights out of me, they still managed to worm their way in and pull at my heartstrings. The story is a little bit second chance romance and a whole lot emotional roller coaster as this pair deals with everything from selfish and distant parents, sick family members, friends that aren’t above a bit of betrayal, and even some underhanded machinations from a snake in the grass love interest. It’s fast-paced and certainly keeps a reader on their toes. Definitely a recommended read.
What a great story this was. A 4 star highly entertaining story that was full of angst that never let up.
Miles never thought he’d see Ray again. She shows up at the bar he works and they have chemistry. They had parted ways as enemies of some sort. Ray had been told things about him so she stayed away. Now they get a second chance will they take it and make it work?
This is a second chance romantic story that was very angsty. I loved the perfectly crafted characters that made me feel so much. I enjoyed Miles because he was selfless. Ray was acting every bit of her age, 19. But still a great character. They had a lot of chemistry going around.
Standalone, I think, told in a dual POV with an HEA. I recommend this story to be read.
Holy moly! I feel like my head and my heart have been bounced around like a ping pong ball whilst reading this! I have whiplash, but I couldn’t put it down!Ray bumps into Miles (someone from her past) in the bar he works in but something doesn’t feel right.
When misunderstandings and wrong doings comes to light, it blew my mind! And there was more than one occasion I wanted to throw my kindle!!
On to book two!
This book is pretty good. The beginning is a little slow, the secret kind of made me go… thats it?, but then last bit of the book was damn good! I overall enjoyed the story!
This is a good read. The story grabs your interest and is well written. I found Miles and Ray and the rest of the characters well written and enjoyable. I would recommend reading.

Well written. Good characters. Happily ever after. Abandonment and trust issues never resolved just pushed away. Self blame incredibly present in both characters and again never resolved just pushed aside to come together. I would have liked this much more if the characters had found a way to change their behaviors rather than love makes it all ok and will concur the behaviors and underlying issues that cause them. The characters are young though and I suppose that is how we approach things when we are young.

Twisted is an Emotionally charged story with characters that set the tone and draws you in. It is a descriptive story and one that we can all identify with especially how Miles and Ray are portrayed. They reconnect and drama ensues. When everything is out into the open, will they find their way back to each other?

It just goes to show you that even if your past with some one isn’t the best time will change that and you be able to start again… Miles and Ray got a second chance of what could be
Ray and Miles had me frustrated with their back and forth love/hate relationship. I get it though. They had a rocky past, so i was glad that the author delved into that. Definitely helped understand the present emotions between the two characters. I loved their connection, and definitely felt their heartaches for each other and their families. I enjoyed this book!
I absolutely fell in love with Miles and Ray!! This book is an absolute page turner! If you haven’t read it, start now!!!! Emily will suck you into this story! Definitely the top of the list of favorite books!!!
