Twisted Game (Filthy Wicked Psychos)

Product Information

So this follows Willow, who has a shitty homelife and is pretty much raising herself, and what happens to her after one night after trying to earn some extra cash, 3 brothers bust in, and they’re after the man Willow is with and kill him, and then take her under their control cos of what she’s witnessed 👀 So. So. Worth. It. There’s enough tension prior to this to keep you reading on, it’s truly deliciousssss 🤌🏼✨

So when I end up desperate for money and out of options, I agree to sell the one thing I have left: my innocence.I can't wait to find out more about who X is and what happened to Willow and her parents in that fire that happened when she was little. I have a hunch that is going to be important in the coming books since it was mentioned so many times, so I am keeping my eyes open to any hints as to what happened there. The writing was alright, there were some mistakes, but it wasn’t too bothersome. As I said, the steamy scenes were written well, but I do feel like there are some plot-holes and some missing information which could’ve given the characters some depth. It’s hard for me as a women to think that’s how we are being portrait as these “talking air heads” as we certainly are not those. Nothing makes sense anymore, and if I thought I might find some peace in knowing that the men who hurt us are dead, I was wrong.

stars. It’s too soon to tell how I feel about this series, since I’ve only read book 1 out of 4. But it’s off to a good start.If you are looking for a very spicy why choose romance with enigmatic and intriguing characters, then… this book is for you.

Then we get to the actual spice scene and it was decent but like i ain’t feel nothing. it was mediocre at best… built all that tension just to get one spark. NAH HONEY AFTER ALL OF THAT BUILDUP I WANT THE ENTIRE FOURTH OF JULY SPECTACULAR!! As for the plot, I'm not giving anything away, but damn I was glued to my kindle!! Eva sure knows how to spin a story in her unique voice and I cannot wait for more!! I told myself I was gonna be a responsible adult and wait until all four books in this series were released before I started reading, but we all know how that turned out, lol. Now imma need her to write like hell because I NEEEEEEDDDDD more of this group!!!

I purposely put off reading this book until the last minute because I knew I would obsess over that cliffhanger (and warning: it's not an easy one, but nowhere near as bad as ROW. Yes, I'm still salty about that. That cliffy almost sent my ass to therapy.🤣) but OMG this was so freaking good!! Willow is a badass, and though she's much softer than the other heroines I've read from this author, she still has such a formidable strength to her that I can't wait to find more about. Plus I have a feeling that a particular someone the guys tried to kill is going to end up being very important to her. The fbi needs to recruit me, ok? After they bring her into their home, they vow to not get involved with her (news flash they fail, horribly) and to keep from developing feelings. TL;DR: This feels like a weird interpolation of Den of Vipers. The brothers are not psychotic in the slightest. The FMC is whiny. The spice is not what I was hoping for. The plot was subpar to be polite.

They each have very distinctive personalities (something I feel is so necessary in why choose book dynamics) I actually wish we got more chapters from each of the brothers, because those are always my favourite and I felt like we got just a way higher percentage of Willow's dialogue than the brothers and I found myself getting a little bored with Willow sometimes. She's really sweet and plain but I kind of like my FMC's a tad more badass and mouthy 🫢 But I have a feeling that she will grow as a person after everything she's been through and we'll see her progress in the third book. No shit but that cliffhanger and plot twist towards the end got me like😭🤯😧. Need me the third book ASAP. I don't know how I'm gonna survive until it comes out ajshjsksksk😩 On a serious note tho, it's safe to say that Eva Ashwood has become one of my fav authors - specifically fav RH author - and I look forward to seeing Willow, Mal, Ransom and Vic's story progress💗 First of all, I cannot deal with the names of 2/3 of the guys. Ransom and Malice, are you serious? I’m sorry, but I absolutely detest that. I literally cringed every damn time their names came up. I’ll be calling them Ran and Mal from now on. I’m honestly not sure how I feel about the guys besides their names. I really liked Ran at first, but he turned into such a cliché that I kept cringing every time he spoke. Drawing her a bath after their first time, “there’s always room for you”, puke. Mal seems promising, although I’m not completely sure if I like him yet? I do feel like I like him the most out of all of them at this point though. Victor is just… I don’t know, not it. He’s giving me major Saint from Kings of Quarantine vibes, but his OCD behaviour is a bit too much. He does however have the most depth so far because of this behaviour, so that makes me like him a bit – he’s the only one who actually has some character traits besides “bad-ass” or “went to prison” or something like that. Furthermore, it honestly didn’t make any sense for them to know Russian. I’m sure it’ll be important at some point, but there really wasn’t a reason for them to learn it? I don’t know, it just once again feels like something that’s just there to progress the plot or a convenient thing for the dirty talk although Russian isn’t a sexy language at all imo but okay.

Customer reviews

Character development: Willow is still in the self-discovery phase of her life and you can clearly see her growing into her own with the choices and experiences she goes through. Although the premise of this story sounded really promising, this wasn’t a book for me. There were many clichés in it, there was no build-up or chemistry between the characters, they were basically all flat characters, and the entire story was just blah to me. I’m sorry, this just wasn’t a book for me I guess. Overall, this turned into a hate-read because I needed to know how the book ended. It ended in a cliffhanger, so naturally I’m going to read the next one. I’m hoping the second one has the redemption the first one needs.
