Oh holy balls is all I can say! My mind was blown after reading this book. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to know what happens next. This book is all about uncovering secrets and finding truths (with a good dose of spice if you know what I mean). Some truths you see coming and are sad, but some leave you spinning and are unexpected. You will not be disappointed with this read. There are some things that may be triggering for some, so please pay attention to trigger warnings. If you still have to know what happens with Rook and Summer in this swirling storm of a story, dive in and keep an eye out for the gators.

What an absolute masterpiece! From the moment I started reading, I was swept away on a rollercoaster of emotions and left completely speechless. Summer and Rook's story is a whirlwind of unexpected twists that had me glued to the edge of my seat from start to finish. I felt an instant connection to both Summer and Rook and fell in love with them completely.
Pretty Twisted Games is a heart-pounding read that will keep you guessing until the very end. Ivy Mason has truly outdone herself with this one, and I can't recommend it enough!

Well I really was just taken on the ride of my life and completely blown away in all the best ways . Ivy Mason nailed it and delivered one of the best books I’ve read this year . I started Pretty Twisted Games late last night and to say there was no sleep to be had would without a doubt be an huge understatement Summer and Rooks story was everything, i mean everything. It’s an emotional rollercoaster that plays on all your emotions in ways you won’t even be expecting. You’ll experience everything from being utterly speechless, to yelling outta pure frustration. Your heart will feel like it’s beating so fast and then bam being crushed with tears streaming down your face . What never wavered was how invested I found myself and the fact that I was glued to the edge of my seat anticipating what would happen from one second to the next . I cannot really put into words what it was but from page one I felt such a strong connection to both Summer and Rook it really was impossible not to fall hook line and sinker in love 💜💜💜💜

This book has everything!! Age gap, dad’s best friend, Dom/Sub, brooding MMC, sassy FMC, lots of banter, secret society, spicy dark romance.
Summer’s life has been marked by tragedy since a young age; first her mom’s tragic death for which she feels responsible, and now her dad’s death due to illness. Summer has to learn how to take care of herself and her younger sister Callie. Their dad’s fortune is gone, their house is in shambles, and she needs money to survive. Even though Rook, her father’s best friend, tries his hardest to help and save her she falls pray to The Magnolia.

Rook knows that he can’t touch his best friend’s daughter but he’s a wolf and she is a little bunny hopping around tempting him until he can’t take it anymore and loses his self control.

Pretty Twisted Lies hooks you from the start and has you on a delicious chokehold until the end. Ivy did an amazing job at world building, character development, plot, and has some sudden and unexpected plot twists . This was my first Ivy Mason read and it will definitely not be my last.

This was just mind blowing. I knew that this arthur was going to take me on a wild ride with this story and yep she did. This book was so flipping good it had me on the edge of my seat anticipating what was going to happen next with Summer and Rook. One thing was for sure I was here for it all. Oh my lord the emotion's I felt I didn't know which way to turn. All I can say is you need to read this book.

[Emma · Rating 2 out of 5]

SO confused with this one.. a little bit of a fairytale, a little bit of magic & spells, a secret society, rituals and the most idiotic characters i've ever read. It really had potential to be a good one but i just couldn't connect with the characters. The nickname of the fmc "stupid little bunny" is the most accurate thing i've read & the mmc is a psycho. The sex scene at her father's grave is disturbing.

When Summer Duvall's father dies. she is left to care for her sister Callie. Summer is an innocent surrounded be wolves. One of these wolves is Rook. Her fathers dyeing wish was for him to protect his daughters. This is a brilliant story the plot has lots of twists and turn and there is plenty of danger and romance. This is another great read from Ivy Mason.

Rook and Summer find themselves twisted up together in some dangerous situations. I wasn’t sure about Rook for a bit but I enjoyed when he opened up and stopped fighting himself. Summer is so sweet and she has no idea what she’s got herself wrapped up in. Lots of steam, lots of danger, secret society and an HEA!

Beautifully written.

I always enjoy discovering new authors who excel in their genres. This start of a new series has it all, intriguing plot, mysterious characters, entwined with danger a secret society.

This book was so amazing! I just wish they were more spice, and it wasn’t practically at the end of the book. Amazing plot.

[Farrell Greer · Rating 4 out of 5]

Twisted defines the relationship between Summer and Rook. All throughout the book there are different twists and turns in their relationship. Rook has always been protective of Summer since she was born, that protection slowly turns to love. Summer feels like she is solely responsible for taking care of her sister Callie and making sure they can keep their family home. She goes to extremes that you can never imagine insuring that happens. This is a great read!
