Publisher's summary

Lex

They've taken my girl. My little bird.

I'll do whatever it takes to get her back, even if it means I have to level this city to the ground. They've woken the monster, and I'll be damn sure my face is the last one they see before I send them all to hell.

Wren

Beaten. Bruised. Broken.

They want me weak and submissive, but they've underestimated me. I'm no damsel. They've taken me from Lex, and I know he'll do everything to get me back. After all, I'm the queen of this city, and my rightful place is next to the king.

It's time to end this war.

Twisted King is the second and final book in the Twisted City Duet. It cannot be listened to as a stand-alone.

A dark, dangerous, and deliciously sinful mafia romance.

Overall a good story, great performances!

Overall a good story. I really enjoyed the strong female character. There were some unfinished story lines and maybe that’ll be in another book. The ending left some unanswered questions. The narrators performance were top notch, as always, from Lucy and Joe. Love these 2 working together.

Call me your little bird ANYTIME!!

Joe Arden hits it out the park yet again. The story was angsty, so damn spicy and oh emm gee growly Joe can do no wrong. Loved this duet

Lucy and Joe + An Amazing Story = 🥵

The performance from Lucy and Joe add to an already amazing story. Plus hearing “it really f’ing helps” at the end is also enough for a review.

So much sass little bird!

Great book. Tons of intensity and steam and action. Wren thought maybe she was looking danger in the eye when this whole time she was Mrs Danger. loved it!

Exciting Conclusion!

What an exciting conclusion to this duet! I really became invested in these characters and what was happening in their lives. This one has a lot of action, drama and suspense. I loved the addition of a few newer characters they really added an extra element to the story.

As this is a duet I highly recommend reading/listening to book 1 (Little Bird) as this is a conclusion to that story. I did listen to this on audio. Joe Arden and Lucy Rivers do an excellent job with the narration. They both leveled up this already wonderful story.

Awesome Performance!

This is a great Audio book. I don’t think I would have like this series as much if I had only read and not listened!

Amazing!

Such a great story i didn’t want it to end! Can’t wait for more of the Harts!

Loved it!

Joe and Lucy did an amazing job!! The way they really brought the characters to life just added so much to the story!

I love how Lex is very much a villain through everything. He has a soft spot for his little bird but he doesn’t try to be the hero. He just goes even more wild to get her back.

While Wren really gets put through some life changing crap and how she chooses to stand on her own. With her King of course but she chooses to stand there and carry her own strength.

Plus the extended Epilogue hit different!! Gonna have to listen to all of them now!!!

Could not stop listening...so good!

Addictively Twisted Conclusion

Book 2 of the Twisted City Duet you must read/listen to book 1, Little Bird, first.

We pick up right where we left off at the end of Little Bird. Chaos is raining down on Lex & Wren and in the middle of it all, they are separated.

Wren holds strong in her captivity while Lex burns the whole world to ash and does whatever he has to do to get her back.

This installment has a lot more triggering content as compared to the first book. Be aware and be prepared.

Again, the audiobook is performed by Joe Arden and Lucy Rivers. The emotions both of these artists bring to their portrayals of these characters is heartbreaking. While in the darkest of moments in the book, you can feel their pain, anger, torment and desperation. Once reunited and trying to move forward, the anguish that is felt before acceptance and determination, before healing and recovery, it's all so gripping you don't want to stop listening. Strap in and wade through it, because there is an HEA to be had, they (and we along with them) just have get there and embrace it.

I requested and was provided with an advanced copy of the audiobook. These are my honest opinions.
