Twisted Deception: Love can be dangerous.
Isabella , author
There are two types of people who can’t look you in the eyes: someone trying to hide a lie and someone trying to hide their love. Addie Blake’s life isn’t black and white—more like a series of short bursts of color that sustain her until the next eruption. She isn’t a ladder-climber in the corporate world. Instead, she works long hours at the office and even at home, something her mechanic girlfriend, Drake Hogan, can’t stand. If Addie can’t focus on Drake, then Drake finds arm candy that will. After a long week of late nights and a series of text-messaged demands, each one a bigger bomb than the last, Addie has had enough of her Motor Girl. Greyson Hollister inhabits a world where everything is either black and white, or money green. She’s a polished, certified workaholic. As head of Integrated Financial, she has built the ladder others want to climb. Now she intends to attend a business mixer to confront a rumormonger and kill merger rumors involving her company. Detective Nancy Hill, the lead detective on the Elevator Rapist task force, has just been called in to investigate an attack at Integrated Financial. She can’t quite put her finger on it, but something doesn’t add up with this latest assault, and Greyson Hollister isn’t exactly lending a helping hand. A storm’s brewing on the horizon. Can Addie and Greyson weather it, or will it blow them over?

Prose: 8 out of 10
Character/Execution: 9 out of 10
Overall: 8.25 out of 10

Assessment:

Plot: The overarching plotline here is strong and captivating. However, some of the more minor plot points strain credulity and take readers out of the story.

Prose: At times, the writing here is strong, polished, and a pleasure to read. At other times, the writing is clunky and disappointing.

Originality: This work follows the typical "whodunnit" formula, but the author makes it her own. Despite some minor fixes needed with prose and plot, this work has the makings of a good book. The characters are unique, the overall storyline is strong, and the work as a whole is unique and original.

Character Development: The author does a solid job with character development. The main characters are all well-defined and distinct, and the author details their backstories, which provide insight into who they are and what motivates them.
