Rate this book
Will the price of fame destroy Jake and Ellie, or will the secret Jake discovers destroy Ellie’s family instead?
Jake Directing movies and music videos is my passion. But passion can be full of twists and turns. My bad boy reputation in LA has gotten me far as a director, but personally, it’s been a challenge. Ellie moved out to LA from Colorado last year to be with me and pursue her singing career. It’s all working out. But now I’ve discovered a secret that could destroy Ellie and threaten our relationship. I’m determined to make things work… and make things right.
ELLIE Making music is my passion. My life in LA has become twisted with problems, but I’m determined to make a success of it. After my boyfriend Jake directed my first music video, I’m now lauded as a “genuine rags-to-riches” singer. My songs are all climbing the charts. But now the radio interview I just did is threatening to destroy everything, including my ”secret” relationship with Jake.


(This book is a standalone and is the second story in the Twisted book series. If desired, the first book, Twisted Hope , can be read for more background information on the characters.)

Passions united, an unbreakable force

Twisted Passion by Kayley Cole is a good read, the second book of this series and an interesting continuation of Ellie and Jake's story. Subterfuge is the game Jake and Ellie employ to trick the papparazzi while someone else is playing the same trick on them.
Overall a well written book in which these two prevail to acheive another HEA and leaves the reader wondering what could they possible have to endure next!?!?

A great second book in the twisted series. It was great to catch up with Ellie and Jake. The story picks up from Twisted hope just over a year later. Jake and Ellie are back in the real world working. Jake is making a horror film and Ellie is working on her music when everything changes in a bink of a eye. Ellie is at a radio station being interviewed about her rags to riches story, when the reporter puts her on the spot about a comment she had allegedly said to another artist. Suddenly her good reputation is in question. Will Jake be there to help her? Will she get her get her reputation back? Or will everyone turn on her?
This is a fantastic second book and I can’t wait to read more from Kayley Cole.

Jake and Ellie navigate a pool of twists and turns, negative media, unscrupulous people, a crazy brother, and lies, in this well-written, well-developed book to finally achieve their HEA. This is an amazing read! The story moves along at a brisk pace and full of intense nail-biting drama. Amazing characters … off the charts chemistry … intense, potent, and hot sex scenes. This is the 2nd and final book following Ellie and Jake and can be read as a standalone; however, I would suggest that in order to truly appreciate everything, I would recommend reading book 1 ‘Twisted Hope’. Definitely recommended! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

An exciting and suspense filled read.

Twisted Passion is the continuation of Twisted Hope with both Jake and Ellie face a new struggle in the media and court of public opinion, deal with multiple issues from their pasts and try to overcome the emotional fall out it all causes. Twisted Passion is a story about facing personal demons and dealing with fake people. This book contains enough suspenseful twists and turns while providing character growth in a quick page-turning afternoon format that will not leave you hanging for long.

Ellie’s music career is taking off thanks to a bit of help from Jake but when she finally hits the top there is someone trying to knock her right down.

When Jake vowed to protect Ellie he meant it so when someone from her past makes an appearance in L.A. Jake is immediately in protective mode since he has a feeling this person isn’t who they say they are.

As Jake and Ellie are still going strong in there relationship will these issues come in between them or will they stand together as a team to conquer all of it??

Another Great Book

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book. I really liked this super story from Kayley Cole. I didn’t want to put “Twisted Passion” Down. It is a great addition to the series and a really enjoyable, engaging, well written book with a very good, flowing storyline. I enjoyed reading about the super, lovely characters, Jake & Ellie, who have great chemistry and interaction that pulled me into their story. This is a very Entertaining, Must Read Romance that I really enjoyed reading from beginning to end

A good read but not in anyway a 'can't put down' ☹️

I received a free copy of this book however all thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.
Although this is a stand alone book, and can be quite easily read as such, I think reading the first book 'Twisted Hope' gives the reader a much better understanding of the complex relationship between Jake, Ellie and Andrew. I found this book to be better written, without all the jumping around and discombobulation of the first book, however I cannot claim in anyway that I was totally hooked upon it unfortunately.

An interesting and intriguing suspense that is a well written second chance romance with surprises, twists and turns, dealing with personal demons and fake people. It has lovely and engaging characters with lots of chemisty keeping me turning page after page. It continues were Twisted Hope ends. Elle and Jake have to face another with new media circus, the public opinion and dealing with multiple demons and fake people with more suspenseful twists and turns.

This book captured my focus from the first page to the very last. It is filled with suspense, drama, intrigue, romance, passion, and laughter. It contains fake people, facing your past and learning to overcome it and move forward, facing the truth yourself...just a lot of great messages between the pages. I loved the characters and the writing style is amazing! Must read...I received an ARC of this book for my honest opinion!

Twisted Passion by Kayley Cole was gifted to me. I wrote this review voluntarily. I loved this book with the strong female character and the strong relationship with her boyfriend. It's nice to read about a man who will go to great lengths to help his woman.

A nice way to bring together everything that happened in the first book though a bit jumbled getting it all into the short length... but a HEA!!

This is a great start to a new series. The storyline is very good, humorous, amorous, and has drama and great, realistically defined characters.

Well Twisted Passion is a perfect extension story to twisted hope. Jake and Ellie's love is too strong, that whatever twists they have to face, their passion keeps them together. I loved this book.
