Life is
unpredictable. It can throws us happiness, luck, wealth and success at any
given time, without warning or premonition. But it can also send trauma, trials
and surprises, both unexpected and unwelcome.
The Twisted
series explores a world where happiness is chased but unreachable, life is
found and stolen, and love is fought for and sacrificed.
It is not a
simple story – life is not a fairytale.
Sometimes it’s a
fight for Survival…
With intertwining
memories and a world of deceit and betrayal yet to be exposed, Survival, book
#1 in the Twisted series, is an intense, compelling page-turner, seen through
the eyes of Skye 'the Skillet' Jones.
A mother. A father.
Two daughters and a son. A happy suburban family of five.
An alcoholic mother. An absent father.
Abandonment. A family ripped apart.
Oliver. Beautiful Oliver. My twin brother, my protector.
Fighting. Freedom. Death.
Cut Throat Curtis. My fire and ice. My light and shade. My pleasure and pain.
He taught me to fight; to control emotional turmoil with physical distraction. He had pain of his own, secrets he would never reveal, and I should have known it would only be a matter of time until he left, becoming a ghost in a life I no longer knew.
Thomas. My magic. My fairy-tale. The man who promised the happy ever after I’d never dared to dream of. My prince. My lover. My everything and more.
But fate was waiting, as always. The merciless force of kismet watched over me, biding its time, waiting to strike; to plunge me into the depths of defeat and leave me with no choice but to succumb.
It was coming, the twist of fate that would bring me to my knees. It was up to me, Skye the Skillet, to decide whether to bow down and surrender to its will, or fight back, to fight for what I had left.

With explosive
suspense and dark sensuality, Revival, book #2 in the Twisted series, is a
passionate, riveting tale of power, conflict and dangerous desire, told by Cut
Throat Curtis Mason.
I was a failure.
An orphan. A quitter. A heartbreaker. A screw-up. A criminal. A monster.
The life I was imprisoned in was the life I deserved.
Ollie’s death shredded my tenacity, chipped away at my confidence and stole the will to fight out from under me. When the toxic worthlessness swimming through my veins made me reject the only girl I’d ever loved, she took the rest of my life with her.
Alone, away from home and emotionally desolate, I was propelled into a life of greed, control and crime when fate played a hand and forced mine into the clutches of Charlie Alexander Tattersell. My vixen. My poison. My villainous addiction.
I fought for and against the life that held me captive, but one painful reminder returned to haunt me.
I was the only one who knew the truth.
Skye’s truth. My love. My driving force. My life’s obsession.
After enlisting the help of my protégé, Jesse ‘the Gentleman’ Kennedy, the mission began.
I had to find answers, retribution and the spark that would release me from the claws of the abyss and bring me one step closer to the Skillet.
With new secrets waiting around every corner, a vicious Charlie waiting to bury me and the haunting memories of every mistake I’d ever made hanging over me, I missed one vital clue.
The key to my revival…

With everything at stake and
nothing to lose, Skye Jones and Cut Throat Curtis Mason are reunited in
the fight of their lives - once and for all. It's time to face the demons of
the past and the present; to reclaim the powerful, passionate connection that
brought them together; and overcome the forces that would tear them apart. It's
time to expose - and destroy - the web of lies, deceit and betrayal woven by
those around them to hold them captive, to keep them silent, isolated and
alone.
The time has come.
There is no time to fight for survival.
There is no time to beg for revival.
There is no other option. There is no choice.
What happens now?It’s time to Thrive…

It was like a Black Ops mission. It
was so damn lame that I’d been saying that since I was eleven, and here I was,
a grown man – almost – hiding in a bush outside a diner, still pretending I was
a soldier on a mission. But it helped. It helped me believe I was doing
something good. Something worth doing. I knew in reality it was pointless. What
was I going to accomplish? What did I want to accomplish? I
had no idea, but here I was, probably standing in dog shit, and definitely
wishing I’d just stayed in and watched a movie with Skye, waiting for something
to scribble in my notebook. I wouldn’t give up. I couldn’t give this up. I
grabbed the apple from my pocket and bit into it as the headlights of the car
I’d been waiting for rolled over the empty car park and it pulled up in its
usual spot. Instead of waiting in the vehicle like he usually did, he got out
of the car and walked into the diner. I was glad I hadn’t found the money to
buy the night vision goggles I’d seen in the gadget shop in town. I didn’t have
enough money for them and the taxi ride here, but I wouldn’t need them tonight
anyway. I could see the couple clearly as they took a seat by the window, and
he reached out to caress the woman’s hair. He did that a lot. I’d seen him do
it loads of times when she joined him in the car. I stayed low but edged
closer. I was a few metres away from the diner and the wind rustled the trees
by themselves, but I couldn’t be too careful. I felt afraid when I was
investigating alone, which was all the time since I couldn’t trust anybody to
help me. When I was around strangers, I knew I was safe, but here? I wasn’t.
Skye thought I was working. Mum and Dad didn’t care where I really was, and
Beth was too far away to think about it. I wished she was here, though. I
wanted us to all be together, where we could keep each other safe. Where I
could keep everyone safe. I ignored the pounding of my heart and my sweaty
palms, throwing the apple away and crunching the leaves beneath my feet as I
moved to get a better view. I pulled out my journal and tried to describe
everything I could see, scribbling notes in the dark with the pencil I’d
sharpened with my penknife while I waited for the car. I needed the knife. Just
in case. It was the reason I stopped learning in school, the mission. I could
pick up a textbook and catch up whenever I wanted, but I had to concentrate on
this until I could figure everything out. The man laughed, and the woman
followed, but neither looked real. I knew fake when I saw it because I’d been
doing it since I was a kid. My skin prickled and I felt the hairs on my arms
stand up.
Something wasn’t right.
