Twisted [Paperback]

Falling in love is easy. Staying in love is hard. In this heart-pounding follow-up toTangledbyNew York Timesbestseller Emma Chase, Kate reveals that there is trouble in paradise, when unexpected circumstances force her and Drew to renegotiate their relationship.

When spontaneous and carefree meets cautious and responsible, falling in love can get just a littleTwisted
