Life outside of her house was a new experience for Della Sloane. The dark secrets of her past weren’t something she ever intended to share with anyone. They would never understand. No one would ever get close enough to find out. There was always a chance she’d go crazy sooner than they expected…Woods Kerrington had never been one to be attracted to fragile females. They seemed like too much work. He wasn’t in it for the work just the pleasure. A night full of naughty fun had been exactly what was on his mind when he’d laid eyes on the hot little number that didn’t know how to pump gas and needed some help.
What he didn’t know was she was as fragile as they came.
The carefree girl who spoke her mind and didn’t care what the world thought of her was more breakable than he could ever imagine…
4 Star Review by Guest Reviewer Nicole Lorenzo
Della Sloane is haunted by her tragic past. She decides to
take off on a journey of self-discovery, and learn how to live her life on her
own. On her road trip to find herself Della stops for gas in a small coastal
town in Florida. It’s there she realizes she doesn’t even know how to pump gas!
Lucky for her Woods comes to her rescue. Tall, dark and sexy as hell Woods
helps her with her gas and then invites her out to dinner. Unable to deny the
chemistry between them Della accepts his invitation for dinner and they share
an unbelievable night of explosive passion that neither of them will be able to
forget anytime soon!! Della leaves the next morning to continue her road trip
and finds herself in Dallas. Problems with her boss force Della to leave, and a
co –worker helps her out by sending her to his condo back home and gets her a
job in his friends county club. Coincidently, Della finds herself back in that
same small coastal town in Florida and working for Woods Kerrington. The four
months apart does nothing to lessen the memory of the night they shared
together and Della finds herself under Woods spell again.
“The only thing you
have to fear is fear itself” – Franklin D. Roosevelt
Woods Kerrington is smart, sexy, charismatic, rich and
miserable as all hell. He works for his family’s country club, under his father’s
rule and must bend to his every whim if he wants to make vice president.
Wanting what is his birthright, Woods goes through the motions of a life he
thinks he wants. This includes getting engaged to a woman he doesn’t love, so
their families can come together and make more money. When Della appears back
into his life he tries to keep his distance, and they have a failed attempt of
being just friends. Woods just can’t stay away from her, and he finally decides
to deal with all the consequences later, he just wants Della.
“You are mine. Do you hear
me? You are mine, Della Sloane. I will take care of you. Nothing is taking you
away from me. Nothing.”
The
passion between Woods and Della is explosive, and they fall in love fast and
fierce. But her mothers mental instabilities have scarred Della, and her
horrific nightmares, and blackouts have her convinced she will destroy any
chance she has at real happiness. Woods is convinced she will not fall in the
tragic footsteps of her mother, and is determined to help her heal and move
forward.
“I am in awe of the things
you've been put through and the fact you can still light up a room when you
walk in. When I look at you I see life. I see joy. I see my future.”
In my search to find myself,
I’d found so much more. I knew now why I wanted to live. I understood love. I
had found it.”
I
absolutely love Abbi Glines! Her characters always feel so real to me and this
was no different in Twisted Perfection. Della
is so broken, my heart hurt for her and all she had to suffer through. But she
is very strong despite the anguish of her past, and Woods makes her stronger.
Woods is actually one of my favorite secondary characters in the Too Far
Series, so I was oh so happy when I heard he was getting his own book.!!! He is
the perfect mixture of gentleman and bad boy. He has this naughty side to him
that you really didn’t get to see in the previous series, and there are quite a
few steamy sex scenes in here too! Woods
future is all planned out for him and I was so happy to see him break away from
that and move forward with Della. Unfortunately, there is a small cliffhanger
at the end of the book, and although I was happy with the way their
relationship was headed at the end, I have a feeling there will be some rough
waters still ahead for Della and Woods! I can’t wait for Simple Perfection, the
continuation of this story due out in September!
