GUYS I LOVE BRIDGET AND RHYS. THERE LEGIT LIKE SO AAAAQJDKDPQRUEIDJUUDJDNEJ. I LOVE THEM. I LIVE THEIR STORY ARC. I LIVE THEIR CHARACTERS. I LOVE THEIR HEA. I LOVE IT ALL. In all seriousness there were some twists I didn't see coming. See

elin and mikaela being the ones to leak the photos and rhys being related to andreas

but they just contributed to how much I love this book. It only took me so long to read it bc life is life but lol I'm so excited for twisted hate Jules in the other books is the biggest yay ever I'm really excited.

Maybe it's because it's a story about a princess or maybe it's because the MMC is named Rhys, but I enjoyed this more than the first book in the Twisted series even though the type of spice is not my favorite (punishment/"good girl"). I did keep expecting there to be more obstacles for the characters, but there wasn't.

While the book was amazing and had plot twists, similar to the first book of the series, I feel like it was a little bit hard to get into considering the amount of erotica in the book. If that’s something you’re into, this is the book for you, but if not I would just be weary while reading. Overall I did enjoy reading the book!

I loved the book and I loved the story line however I did find it pretty repetitive throughout the book. I did love the pop ups of the other characters as well like Alex and Ava
