The novel unfolds through the lenses of two contrasting protagonists: Alex and Ava. Alex is a brilliant yet emotionally guarded real estate mogul, whose cool exterior belies a troubled past. Ava, an aspiring photographer, grapples with her own dark history. The plot ignites when Ava’s overprotective brother, Josh, leaves for a medical camp, entrusting her care to his best friend, Alex. This arrangement sets the stage for an intricate exploration of how their seemingly disparate lives collide, threatening the stability they have each meticulously built.


“If you let lesser people determine your self-worth, you’ll never reach higher than their limited imagination.” This line challenges readers to defy the constraints imposed by others and to forge their own path to self-worth.


“Love isn’t earned. It’s given.” Huang underscores the notion that true love is a gift freely given, not a transaction or a reward.


“You think you know someone until something happens that proves you never really knew them at all.” This quote highlights the idea that true understanding of another person often emerges during pivotal, challenging moments.


“Pretty words and pretty faces don’t equal pretty souls.” Huang emphasizes that the essence of a person lies in their actions and intentions, rather than superficial appearances.


“But just because things could be worse didn’t mean they didn’t suck.” This sentiment validates the importance of acknowledging and honoring our own struggles, regardless of their scale.

Twisted Love is a compelling read for fans of the sunshine/grumpy trope and the brother’s best friend dynamic. Through its exploration of hope, love, and friendship, the novel offers a rich, emotional journey that resonates deeply with its audience. Huang's skillful storytelling invites readers to immerse themselves in a world where love and personal growth are intricately entwined.


For those who enjoy contemporary romance with complex character dynamics and emotional depth, Twisted Love is a must-read. Its engaging narrative and thoughtful exploration of relationships make it a standout entry in Huang’s series.
