I did everything I could to put distance between myself and the two people I couldn’t have. That is, until my phone rang.
My step brother who embodies my most taboo desires, wants me to join his band on a leg of their tour for one week. Fill in as his band’s makeup artist and social media manager, that's it. It should’ve been an easy no, and maybe it would have been if it was just for him.
But it’s not just him. It’s his best friend, too. The one who looks at me like he knows every dirty secret I’ve never told.
One of them forbidden, the other off limits.
And now? A third complication. Neon Cherry’s newest band member. She’s bold, electric even, and the way she looks at me isn’t subtle.
They all want me. Maybe I want them all back.
We swore it would only be for one night. We couldn’t get attached. This had to be our secret.
But can any secret really stay hidden, or we will be forced to reconcile with ours in the center of the stage?
Clandestine was short, spicy, and had me sweating like I was the one backstage getting wrecked by rockstars. This MFFM why choose masterpiece had no business being that hot in so few pages and yet here I am, unwell. Still recovering. Still thinking about that diner scene like it’s a religious experience. 🍽️🥵
The chemistry was sinful. The dynamic? Perfectly chaotic. I didn’t know who to fall for first, so naturally I fell for all of them and lost every last shred of self respect in the process. I went in for a little taste and left with bite marks, bruises, and zero regrets.
You don’t need to read the first two Twisted Tours books to enjoy this one but honestly? Why deny yourself the full unhinged experience? These books are giving fast, filthy, and emotionally reckless, and I am EATING. IT. UP.
Five stars. Ten out of ten. Would let this tour bus run me over. Groupie life forever. 🎤🖤
What happens when you’ve decided to be the makeup artist for a band and the band is made up or your stepbrother, his best friend and their female pianist/singer?
And they all want you!
Yup that is right go pick this up now because that’s all you need to know!
What to expect MFFM forbidden love (stepbrother) Rockstar romance Childhood best friends Always been you One night only Spicy af!!!!!
Thank you Ava for allowing me to be a part of your journey as an Alpha reader and ARC reader! Cannot wait to see what you come up with next!
I am utterly baffled and in love. Not only with the characters but with Ava her writing. She really brought them all the life. From the first words you could feel the tension the forbiddeness but also the ultimate need to give the world and society a big F because the love is just worth that.
And the SPICE it was spicing i tell you. The MICROPHONE! Also when he wanted the whole crowd to hear her! I was like this is the most hidden but also the most out in the open act. Like call the cleaning service cause you could mop me up I tell you.
I know I will keep raving about this book for ages. It will be on my forever repeat list it was just that good I will need a dose of it every so often.
“There are a million microphones in this world, but there’s only one of you.”
This Twisted Tours series has been so much fun to read. And I’m not going to lie, this book has been my most anticipated read in the series and it did not disappoint!
Hale, Caleb, Jackson, and Sydnee give us a quick and hot and spicy novella that will have you sweating! I loved how this was an equal opportunity romance where no one was left out. But Hale and Sydnee’s scenes were my absolute favorite (the mic, I mean COME ON 🥵)
The Twisted tours series has been giving us some quick and hot novellas and Clandestine is right on point with that as well! I loved the dynamics between our characters and the spice is definitely spicing!
What to expect: -MFFM why choose -Forbidden (stepbrother -Rockstar romance -It's always been you
Thank you to Ava Jay for letting me read/review an ARC of this novella!
MS. AVA JAY?! WHAT WAS IN THIS, DRUGS?! this book was absolutely insane and dare I say I want to read more. I know this was the end of this series from the three authors but babes im so sorry. yall gotta get back together cause I need more. expeditiously. this is a mffm romance and I loved every aspect of it. the relationships between the guys never got to sword crossing which is sad but I wasnt mad at it, truly it was a good blend in my opinion. Hale and Colby's step siblings relationship was hot and the addition of the best friend also being in love with her worked so well that at first I was mad Sydnee was going to be included but she worked well in the group, and i mean who would get mad at two girls? not i said the baker. although this was a novella and over the course of a weekend, I would definitely want to see what they get up to in the real world. Basically I just want more of them is what im saying. I loved this
Thank you to the author for allowing me to arc read this. Oh my god. I absolutely DEVOURED this book!!! I loved loved loved it so much. I liked how each character had their own chapter, had their own story to tell and how they came together. This book will stick with me forever and that diner scene? WOAH WOW OMG! 10/10!!!!!
This novella was super short, sickly sweet and just smutty, spice and smut again. I’m honestly a bit baffled on how this book was so genuinely endearing while also continuing to be just wall to wall depravity to be honest. We do get a bit a backstory, which is accomplishment on it own in a novella but I think this is also probably a big part which gives us a lot of ground to work up from on the gut-wrenching side of things.
Colby and Hale’s parents get married when they are teenagers making them stepsiblings and along with Colby’s best-friend Jackson, the three become an inseparable trio from that point forward. Hale has felt a reciprocal connection with both of the boys over the years but has stayed clear of Colby due to the taboo aspect that their relationship would entail and Jackson has never made his move out of respect to his best friend. I don’t know if it’s just me but the trope where the girl takes herself out of the equation to prevent a fall out between two best friends and it ends up turning into some sort of group relationship years later is my secret favourite, I need more of these books.
‘If our parents weren’t married, she would be mine’
When we meet the characters at the beginning of this book, Hale has taken a big step back from her friendship with the boys in the last couple of years, mainly to prevent herself and them heartache but due to a sick make-up artist and a head over heels stepbrother, Hale somehow lands herself on their tour bus.
The little reunion between them is also just so loving, even just on a friendship level. Jackson literally dives for her and then Colby propping his chin on the top of her head is just so sweet, I cannot even comprehend. And that’s not even if for band members we still have Sydnee, who despite being a lesbian already has a deep connection with the boys, especially Jackson and it doesn’t take much for her and Hale to form a connection. It kind of just instantly feels like they were all supposed to know each other.
Colby is so sneaky, his jealously is quite literally pouring out of him, he’s unwilling to properly skew Hale away from Jackson but him casually pondering how Jackson’s unsavoury actions could potentially affect Hale’s view of him and internally basking in the possibility is cackle worthy. In the same vein his internal struggle of being unable to give Jackson his blessing and the fact that Jackson has stood by his friendship with Colby for a decade is a big heartbreaker. That all being said Hale is having none of it and just continues to be her effortless self and leans into her relationship with Sydnee.
“If I had to pick anyone besides myself to own her heart, it would be him. And that pisses me off, no matter how much I wish it didn’t.”
Thing obviously progress pretty quickly due to the very close forced proximity but more in an accidentally kind of way, I cannot believe she didn’t double check to make sure someone wasn’t in that bathroom but also thank god she didn’t if these are the results. If I had to pick one word to describe the spicy scenes in this book it would undoubtedly be feral. The second they get going, it doesn’t stop. For life of me why did it have to be in the godamn diner (I think this might be European thing where I’m maybe not able to picture a Diner that isn’t just one big room). Anyway, despite these scene’s being categorically scorching, they also just blew me away. Jackson walking in on the girls in the bathroom? The pre stage entrance thing - I don’t even know how to describe this?? Speechless, Unfathomable. READ THIS NOVELLA.
I just loved it, I wish it was longer. Thankyou Ava for providing me with an Arc copy! I will 1000% be reading more from you, every aspect was good. The love, the dynamics, the sapphic aspect. I have no complaints. I just want more please. No one has to know.
And here we are! The final book in the Twisted Tours Trilogy. And lordy did it end with a BANG! Ava, you left me WISHING this wasn’t a novella so we could get more. I have enjoyed all three books but this last one left me craving for more. I don’t usually read step sibling romances, I have requirements to be able to read them, but this one matched the requirements so it’s a pass in my book. But yeah, normally I enjoy novellas and am content with the endings, but this one really left me wanting more.
Let’s start with the spice. That diner scene! I legit went back and reread it after finishing it. It was so HOT! And the balcony scene, was that the same one mentioned in the first book that was spotted from the ferris wheel? If it was, nice way to tie them together.
The characters. I adored Hale, I mean the girl can stand on her own. And Sydnee, legit swore she would be a top with the vibes she gave but ya girl Hale had her so weak in the knees! And the boys, Jackson seemed like such a golden retriever and the bits of jealousy from Colby were perfect to mix in! Speaking of Colby, talk about possessive yet willingly to share Hale with his bandmates. So glad he finally gave in, and thank you Ava for making it clear they never saw each other as siblings from the start.
All in all, from the trilogy we got, Clandestine is for sure my favorite (doesn’t mean I didn’t love the other two!) And I gotta say it again, I wish we got more of this foursome! To anyone that wants to read this book, you don’t NEED to read the other two but I HIGHLY suggest you do to enjoy the entire universe they made for these rockstars. Side note: I am honestly giving this a 4.5 star review BUT since we can't do half stars on here....

Let’s just say that our girl Hale is in for the 𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒𝐓 adventure of her life!!!

Do you ever think about the Nickelback song “Rockstar” but imagine it to be a MFFM why chose relationship novella. Oh I’m the only one, because that is exactly what Clandestine is!! It’s a taboo why choose MFFM novella with lots of spice in it. Our main characters are Haley (the one that everyone is obsessed with), Colby (Haley’s stepbrother, therefore the taboo romance) Jackson (Colby’s best friend who is in love with Haley) and Sydnee (the lesbian co-singer who took one look at Haley and basically said you are mine now!). Quick overview, Haley is a makeup artist and social media influencer who gets a call from her stepbrother Colby about doing those jobs for his band Neon Cherry’s. The only problem is she has been trying to get away from her feelings for Colby and Jackson for years but she agrees to the job thinking that she has pushed all feelings away. News flash she is wrong and that are still there, then when the band picks up Sydnee, new feelings start to form and Haley has found out that this is gonna be a tough week at the music festival. I had a great time reading this book, if you are someone that loves a quick read that has lots of spice in it then this is the one for you!!!
WOW talk about a debut novel 🥵 Hale was the perfect puzzle piece missing from this tour bus and Sydnee knew she had to make the first move. However we always love a groveling golden retriever that is Jackson, and the scary dog privilege that is Colby. I have been wanting a crazy Rockstar to claim what's theirs and hot dayum Ava thank you for this perfect conclusion to twisted tours. Clandestine was everything I was hoping it would be and then some 😏 Watching Hale fall for these three was absolutely sinful. I loved every twisted second of their free fall into madness for each other. Knowing that "just once" never actually means we could ever be just once! The spice? 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶 The taboo 😏 The story 🤌 I absolutely cannot wait for more from this author. I am foaming at the mouth for ALL the possibilities 😩
Great short and spicy MFFM rockstar romance. 3rd book in the Twisted Tours series, but can be read as a standalone.
The chemistry and dynamics between the characters were great and the spice kept spicing (the diner scene 🥵). I really enjoyed this short story and highly recommend checking it out!
All books in the Twisted Tours series have been amazing! Check them out if you’re in the mood for something short and spicy.
“Falling for the two of them was easy. Never being able to have them, either of them, was excruciating.” “What’s the harm in one night of play? No one has to know. One night, one time to get it out of our systems.” “Doesn’t it feel good? Letting your dirty thoughts become reality?” “Mine to ruin, mine to take, mine to keep.”
I received an ARC of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review. Receiving ARC didn’t affect my opinion of the book.
What an ending to the Twisted Tours series. I am so sad it's over, but I really loved this world and these characters so much 💜💙💜
We have our main characters, Hale, Sydnee, Colby, and Jackson. When Hale has been roped into helping her stepbrother and his band on tour, things get quite spicy, especially when Colby and Jackson have been obsessed with Hale for so long and can't deny their feelings for Hale anymore. Sydnee also falls hard and fast for Hale even though she has just come out of a relationship.
Loved this so much!!!!
Thank you so much, Ava, and your team for the opportunity to read this story. I am extremely grateful 🙏
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶🌶🌶🌶
💄 why choose / mffm 💄 it's always been you 💄 one night only 💄 rockstar romance 💄 no third act Breakup 💄 step brother/ forbidden 💄 step brother's best friend 💄 forced proximity 💄 super spicy
The third and final book of Twisted Tours. Each one can be read individually, but as they are interconnected the others make a brief appearance.
This one is a poly/Why choose with FF, and all about her.
It's a short read full of heat, sweat kinkys and with some taboo topics. To know better it's best to read the Content Warnings.
For me it was also a sweet read, because it's about how teenagers become friends and end up developing much stronger feelings, but which cannot be expressed.
But with age comes opportunities and courage to choose and accept what makes us happy. And if what we truly felt was and continues to be strong, then it's worth fighting for.
Whenever I see a table in a restaurant or even a microphone I will remember this book with a devilish smile.
I didn't know I needed Clandestine in my life until I picked it up! 😂 As a fan of MMF stories, I was excited to dive into a MMFF, and Ava Jay did not disappoint.
This book is very spicy! The characters are so well-developed, and the tension between them is palpable. I loved the blend of forbidden desires and unexpected connections that kept me on the edge of my seat. The dynamics are complex, making every twist feel fresh and engaging.
This series has been an absolute joy, and while I'm sad to see it end, I'm eager to explore more from all the authors involved. If you're looking for a captivating read filled with secrets, steamy moments, and plenty of spice, Clandestine is definitely worth your time! 🎸❤️
Oh, I absolutely devoured this book up! Clandestine is an incredible debut from Ava Jay. I’m already thinking about rereading this one! This book is absolutely full of spice, love & a gorgeous view into polyamory. Ava did an incredible job of making each character’s personality complex, while showing how everyone loves differently and deserves to be loved no matter what that looks like or who it’s with! I also LOVED how this book showed how music and makeup are beautiful forms of art. Hale & Sydnee are also my new favorite girlfriends. Hale is the ultimate dream girl and it’s no wonder why a WHOLE band wants her!!
Buckle up buttercup and enjoy the spicy ride. While being just a short little novella, a good amount sure happens in this MFFM story. Hale finds herself on tour with her stepbrother, his best friend and their singer with attraction literally oozing out of everyone. I love the nickname Colby has of brat for her, and her calling Jackson Jaxie is too cute. Despite their long history, Sydnee jumps right in as the newcomer. Sometimes the best relationships are unconventional and need to be for you, not someone else’s preconceived notion. Them taking the leap to explore that is just the right choice in finding their happiness.
um HELLO 🥵 This might only be 100 ish pages but WOW I am obsessed! I binged this book in just over an hour because I couldn't get enough of it. Hale, Jaxie, Colby, and Sydnee were all so individually interesting and I loved getting to know each of them and their personalities. The storyline itself was so fun but the spice was insane (in the best way, I promise!). Every time I thought it couldn't get spicier or more wild, it managed to do exactly that. I could literally read 1,000 pages about these characters because I had such a great time with this book!
Features: - MFFM - rockstars x makeup artist - step siblings - exhibitionism - it's always been you
what girl doesn’t want to get railed in front of a Ferris wheel by 3 hot rockstars? because same.
Colby, Hale, Jackson and Syd are a DREAM. I absolutely loved each and every one. This was the only story I got to read so far out of the Twisted Tours series but I will be diving into the rest! And holy hotness. Hale is one lucky girl. Having your hot step brother as the lead signer of Neon Cherry, his best friend in the band AND having a hot girl join them later on? Sign me up.
I demand a full novel PRONTO because I need more of them.
this is ffmm? tbh I dont know what way round the f's and the m's go. they share her but dont touch each other. either way, it's pure delicious. when neon cherry need a new make-up artist and society media person Colby decides to ring his stepsister to fill the position. Colby and his best friend Jackson have been obsessed with Hales since she came into their life 10 years ago. but now even their band mate Sydnee is interested. the things these 4 get up to? hot AF. you know im feral for a pure smutty little read and this hit all the spots.
Lovedddd the focus on the FF spice and how she really just dove right into the deep end with the guys 😂
I do wish that either Syd or the guys were also bi tho. The whole “the world revolves around one person” style of why chose needs to be retired already 😏
Thank you Ava, for letting me ARC read this book! It was a great, fast paced and fun time. This is the only book of this trilogy that I've read and now I want to go check out the others based on fellow reviews on this one.
This little book had a lot going on and extremely fast. I could easily see this story becoming more in a larger book because you quickly find ways to love all of these characters.
My only issue on this book is my issue with most amazing novellas, I wanted more. Fingers crossed that Ava decides to go back into this little group and give us more down the line.
I will never look at a corner booth in a diner and not blush now.
My thoughts: I found myself immediately falling in love with these characters! The first FMC we are introduced to you know that she's feisty and that she has this guard up and for good reason. The MMCs are both walking gods... and rockstars... and are in love with the same girl. Then insert another FMC, who is also fierce and she sets her sights on that very same girl.... it's fine...everything is fine. Add in some forced proximity and LOTS of tension... and you have some very HOT group activities... Seriously I have to say that I read a scene that was a first for me... and that immediately made this short and spicy little read a 5 star for me! -Let's just say eating dessert at the diner takes on a whole new meaning... and lawd have mercy... it's good! -And I love how this found family... finds their HEA. -This Twisted Tours series has been absolutely phenomenal!
I am sad for the Twisted Tour series (all standalones) to come to an end. I have absolutely loved all 3.
If you want a short, spicy, MFFM, why choose this is the one you NEED!!
The characters are amazing!! The plot is quick and well developed, even for a novella. Back stories for all characters are creatively woven into the story. The 🌶 is 🔥!!
This does have some taboo elements, so check trigger warnings.
