Twisted Truth (Truth Vs Lie Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 39 ratings

I used to believe in true love.
Until he broke me.
Lesson learnt.
Where there’s love, there’s lies.

I used to believe I wasn’t what she needed.
Until I let her love in.
I’ve changed for her.
I want her to believe in me like I need to believe in myself.

Isaac James stayed out of my life for five years. He wasn't to blame, after all, protecting me imprisoned him.
Now he’s back. The chemistry is still there, the tension is still there, the love is still there… the pain is still there.
Isaac James was my rock, my first love… my family.

Olivia McKenna has always been my weakness. I’d do anything to protect her, which I proved, despite it taking me to prison.
I’ve stayed away, trying to do the right thing. I thought I was still protecting her. But, I’m lost without her… even if I’m not sure I can be what she needs.
Olivia McKenna was my forever… for always.

** This book is set in the UK. First cousin relationships are tackled within this book; please be aware those relationships are legal within the UK.**

    Absolutely loved this book & all the characters. From start to finish I was engrossed & didn't want to stop reading. Then, as the end got nearer I wanted to stop because I didn't want this dark at times & beautiful love story to finish. I have read every single book Maria has written & she just gets better & better. Can't wait for more from this amazing author.

    "I'll always protect you, I'll always put you first and I'll always love you. You're my forever for always".

    Words from our hero Issac and my favourite part of the book. This story I well named as it is twisted and heartbreaking.

    I took a while to read it so it didn't hook me how I thought it should have however, still an action packed loved story.

    First heart break, hidden secrets and angst are just a few of the ingredients in this story.

    This was a my first book from Maria MacDonald and boy, it tackled a legal but mostly taboo topic.

    Olivia is one hot ball of mess, making all the mistakes in life because she really can't function with one thing....Isaac. He totally throws her everyday ability for function, live and breathe.

    Isaac sacrificed a lot for Via and he thinks by steering clear, he's doing the right thing. And he has his own secret to protect. His only problem is Via, her route of twisted pain and that he has to save her, to be there.

    The book was full of emotions, mixed opinions, angst and a lot of love. The book does come with a warning. It is a book filled of secrets and deceit but you find yourself totally intrigued and submerge into the lives of 2 complicated people.

    I really enjoyed the book and would pick up another from the author without hesitation. I read this book on behalf of 3 degrees of fiction.

    I have read all of Maria's books and this one was another 5 star read. I loved the darker side and constantly left me wanting more. Loved Olivia and Isaac and so will you. You really need to read this book

    Fantastic read, a total must if you have read the Entwined Series.
    A first in novellas, this one is about Olivia and Isaac
    Isaac has been in love with Olivia since they were kids but when she starts dating things go very wrong for him and Olivia.
    Lots of things keep getting in the way but all they really need to do is tell the truth.

    There are some authors whose writing you love so much it wouldn't matter if they were writing the instructions for flat pack furniture you know it would be so well written it would suck you in. Maria has become one of those authors for me. Her new book pulls you in from the first chapter and whilst setting up the back story of the characters it has you laughing and connecting with them straight away. [ 76 more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Six, this book is EVERYTHING, stars!
    Reviewed in the United States on 28 September 2017
    You know, there is always one author out there who you desperately wish more people knew about. An author that gives her all to her words, her stories and her characters. An author whose books are brilliant. Maria MacDonald is that author for me.

    I have read every book of Maria’s so far, fallen fast and hard for characters she's penned and stories she's slaved over. Only, with Twisted Truth, Maria demolished all her previous works and produced something way above anything she's ever written before.

    Twisted Truth follows the next generation of characters we know and love from the Entwined Hearts series. Twisted Truth is a complete standalone and you can totally get by without reading those books. But you should, because they're good! Anyway, Twisted Truth is Olivia & Isaac’s story, and these two are stunning. I love a good friends to lovers book. Couple that with an intense second chance romance and some heart pounding angst and well, I've found me a winner.

    I was helpless, unable not to be drawn into Mr. Isaac James, he was everything I want in a romance, alpha-hero. This guy also has an edge, a dark, animalistic, gritty edge that added so much suspense and mystery to the story. His relationship with Via, his protectiveness and possessiveness over her left me all hot and bothered and a little, okay a LOT, needy!

    Twisted Truth is a novel that captivates and consumes. It’s not an easy, breezy read. No. There is so much to this, so much emotion and passion. From beginning to end, I did nothing but FEEL! The connection was there. The passion was there. The intensity was there. Everything was there and it was delivered beautifully!

    4.0 out of 5 stars 3.5/5 mysterious ⭐️
    Reviewed in Canada on 18 February 2022
    Overall a great story of mysterious proportions from missed opportunities to unexplained disappearances. What would you do if the love of your life was your first cousin (adopted)? For Olivia and Isaac it’s a tumultuous back and forth before they can lay down their swords and stop fighting each other and let love conquer. My only issue is that I wasn’t aware this is a second generation series which almost feels we’re missing some of the background information to feel more invested.

    Again she brings us raw, and unrestrained emotion. Each book she writes gets better and better! Must read of 2017.
