I really loved this story. It was such a great slowburn romance and I was here for it! Barely a touch until 50% in and then it gets HOT!!!
I really appreciated the banter and chemistry between Christian and Stella <3 For a man who didn't believe in love, this man fell HARD! He was obsessed, thinking it was just because she was some kind of puzzle, but really it was because he was so infatuated with her as a person. Mans was in LOVE and would literally KILL for her. The morally greyist of any of the Twisted men in my opinion and quite possibly my favorite. Give me a toxic man in a book but please don't come near me iRL <3
I love that Christian really wanted and supported Stella in becoming her own person and she truly grew and got over her own traumas because of it.
I really enjoyed almost everything about this book, just wished they left out a certain something in the epilogue that I hate!
Aaaah! This couple is definitely tied with Rhys and Bridget <3

I think this book was by far the best in the series it had a stronger more intriguing plot. There was more depth and detail to it.peachmoni's review against another edition
