Alex Volkov is a devil blessed with the face of an angel and cursed with a past he can’t escape.
Driven by a tragedy that has haunted him for most of his life, his ruthless pursuits for success and vengeance leave little room for matters of the heart.
But when he’s forced to look after his best friend’s sister, he starts to feel something in his chest:
A crack.
A melt.
A fire that could end his world as he knew it
Ava Chen is a free spirit trapped by nightmares of a childhood she can’t remember.
But despite her broken past, she’s never stopped seeing the beauty in the world… including the heart beneath the icy exterior of a man she shouldn’t want.
Her brother’s best friend.
Her neighbor.
Her savior and her downfall.
Theirs is a love that was never supposed to happen—but when it does, it unleashes secrets that could destroy them both… and everything they hold dear.
Official Summary
25 January 2023
This book follows the story of Ava and Alex. Ava’s brother asks Alex to look after Ava while he is away volunteering as a doctor out of the country. And obviously, Ava is against this idea.
My favourite character was Ava, and purely just because she is not nearly as bad as Alex. Alex was such a weird character because there are times when you are rooting for him and times when you wish he will be hit by a bus. So he definitely will get some strong emotions out of you.
Honestly, this book was good; the plot was brilliant. This book was weirdly such a page-turner. There were so many twists and turns that I never saw coming
Overall this book wasn’t my favourite and it sort of just screams Wattpad so if you’re looking for a bit of nostalgia then I would recommend this book. My only real criticism of the book despite the cringy dialogue is that the first eighty percent of the book was super slow but then a hundred different things happened towards the end. This makes the ending feel very rush.
However, everyone whom I have seen talk about this series, online, says the first is the worst. So I look forward to continuing this series and getting to know the other characters a bit more.

Twisted Games
Stoic, broody, and arrogant, elite bodyguard Rhys Larsen has two rules: 1) Protect his clients at all costs 2) Do not become emotionally involved. Ever.
He has never once been tempted to break those rules…until her.
Bridget von Ascheberg. A princess with a stubborn streak that matches his own and a hidden fire that reduces his rules to ash. She’s nothing he expected and everything he never knew he needed.
Day by day, inch by inch, she breaks down his defences until he’s faced with a truth he can no longer deny: he swore an oath to protect her, but all he wants is to ruin her.
Regal, strong-willed, and bound by the chains of duty, Princess Bridget dreams of the freedom to live and love as she chooses.
But when her brother abdicates, she’s suddenly faced with the prospect of a loveless, politically expedient marriage and a throne she never wanted.
And as she navigates the intricacies—and treacheries—of her new role, she must also hide her desire for a man she can’t have.
