Twisted hate (twisted series)

I tore through the Twisted series way too fast and now I don’t know what to do with myself. Ana Huang seriously knows how to write swoony, complicated men and strong, smart women you root for.Each book has its own vibe, enemies to lovers, forbidden romance, fake dating, and they’re all equally addictive. The chemistry? 🔥 The drama? Delicious. The banter? 10/10.

I started this book with open mind, I loved Jules character from the previous stories. She’s a strong woman who reminds me of my self. I also grew to like Josh even though I was angry when he broke her heart. But I’m glad it all worked out at the end. Their love to hate relationship was cute. 4 stars from me.

Now, trust me, I love Rhys as much as anyone, but Josh Chen really takes it up a notch. I was enthralled with this book and read it in a couple of days! Now for the breakdown!"𝙊𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙖 𝙛𝙚𝙬 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙘𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣: 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝, 𝙩𝙖𝙭𝙚𝙨, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙅𝙤𝙨𝙝 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙚 𝙛𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙨.”Jules Ambrose- an amazing female mc, she is so headstrong and how she handles judgement in an unbothered way. Throughout her life, she goes through so much and grows into this amazing woman. Also, the fact that she’s a lawyer and puts so much time and effort into it? Role model.“𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙮 𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙄 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙’𝙫𝙚 𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙙 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙬𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙄 𝙨𝙖𝙬 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙡𝙚𝙙 𝙪𝙥 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙖 𝙙𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙙 𝙨𝙝𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙥.”Josh Chen- a doctor, an amazing brother, sarcasm galore, witty, good taste in movies, spicy 🌶🥵, compassionate and caring.

The tension and passion in their words and spats, is unbelievable. You can feel it through the pages. I just wanted them to kiss every time they fought!! Josh and Jules supremacy. Even though they denied their feelings for so long, it was so worth it!!! And how alike they really are? Match made in heaven.“𝘽𝙚𝙘𝙖𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪’𝙧𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚,” 𝙄 𝙨𝙖𝙞𝙙 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙩 𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙝. “𝙇𝙚𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝 𝙮𝙤𝙪, 𝙅𝙪𝙡𝙚𝙨, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪’𝙡𝙡 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙡𝙮 𝙄 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙖 𝙢𝙖𝙣’𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝙖𝙨 𝙄 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙨𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙚.”The plot- it was amazing, went super smoothly, and I kept wanting to read more and more and not stop. The conflict of this book however, around the 80% mark, seemed silly to me. I feel like it was slightly out of character for Jules to not confide in Josh, and the response to said conflict just seemed to be there so there was something. It didn’t bug me much, but I wished it were a bit better.“𝘽𝙚𝙘𝙖𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪’𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙢𝙚.

Josh and Jules are an amazing couple, who fit so well together. The passion, the love, the banter. Yes, yes, yes. I can’t wait for book 4, and to see Stella’s story!“𝙄𝙣 𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙞𝙩’𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙧, 𝙄 𝙛𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪, 𝙅𝙪𝙡𝙚𝙨 𝘼𝙢𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙨𝙚, 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙯𝙮. 𝙀𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙯𝙮.”

I was really looking forward to Jules and Josh’s story. It was obvious from earlier books that they would end up together. And I wanted to catch up on earlier characters, one being his former best friend now with Josh’s sister.Most of the book was good. The banter and the heat was on target. Then Josh did a terrible thing, and I would have liked to see him on an Alex level make up to Jules. It just fell short. She had some terrible experiences in her life, and even though he had been hurt as well, I thought his cruelty was over the top. But the angst was real, and I like some angst in my books.There is a lot of closure in this book for both of them, and I do like them as a couple. It’s worth the read for sure.

It had such a good enemies to lovers storyline while wrapping up all of the other books. It is definitely my favorite in the series.

The Twisted series is becoming one of my favorites for sure. Every book gets better and Twisted Hate was another winner for me. I’ve been interested in Jules and Josh since book one - separately and together. I loved their ambition, loved their “hate” for each other and loved when they finally came together. The book was fun, hot and spicy all in one and I enjoyed it very much! Excited for Stella next.

This series is amazing. If you love spicy romance books this is one of them to go to! It’s hard to stop reading once you get going. I can’t wait to finish the series!
