Big thank you to Netgalley and Boldwood for the eARC.
Genre: Contemporary Romance
⭐️ 4/5
🌶 2.5/5
🧠 2/10
Cliffhanger: 5/10
Noteworthy: Book 2 of an incomplete series. This series must be read in order. Publication date is November 24, 2025. No major triggers.

This was a good second installment to this series. It was a quick read filled with suspense and tension. I won't be spoiling anything but just know you will close this book with some answers but more questions. I can't wait for book 3!

If you love brooding, mysterious MMCs and independent yet vulnerable FMCs, download book 1 immediately!

This was a fab second instalment to Scarlett and Gregory's story.

I loved the edgy feel to the story as the two lovers fought they way through the darkness of the days and weeks that followed on from the cliffhanger of the first book.

Fear, doubt and suspicion dogged their lives, as Scarlett battled with her heart, and wondered about the man who still harboured secrets from her.

This was a super spicy read, with an absorbing plot.

After the cliffhanger at the end of Ruthless Love, Gregory and Scarlett are back, both desperately trying to protect each other and deal with the repercussions of what happened at the end of the first book.

But Gregory remains closed off even after everything Scarlett has done and sacrificed for him. So when she's offered a six-month secondment in Dubai, she begins to think perhaps it's for the best.

However, she's in love with Gregory, and the pull he has over her keeps her coming back for more. No matter how reluctant he is to open up, how much he broods, or how unpredictable he becomes. Scarlett is in too deep to walk away.

Until one phone call changes everything.

And with another cliffhanger, plenty of unexpected twists and turns, spice, and engaging characters, this was an enjoyable read. I'm just not sure Gregory is really worth all the hassle!

My thanks to Boldwood Books for my copy of Twisted Love. All thoughts expressed are my own. 😊

Holy hell. I am absolutely eating this series up. Gregory has some serious issues and honestly I applaud Scarlett for sticking with him for so long because he would’ve been out on his arse if it were me 🤣 he really needs therapy. Having said that I absolutely love a morally grey MC and he and Scarlett have so much chemistry it’s intoxicating. I really feel like they don’t really know each other and that needs to change if they are actually going to work. I absolutely love the story in the book. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and absolutely eating it up! So excited for the next one!!

The first book ended on a cliffhanger. Gregory will do whatever it takes to protect Scarlett, claiming he did it, but the one thing he won't give her are the words she longs to hear. Scarlett faces major decisions ahead. It's an incredibly addictive and amazing series, and with such a cliffhanger ending, I can't wait for book 3!

[Sam Hurley · Rating 4 out of 5]

So after the first book and the first cliffhanger you’re just going to make me cry and give me another cliffhanger???

I love Scarlett and Gregory I really really do though there were parts of the book that had me questioning if it really needed to be a trilogy and wowwwww it does!!!

Brb while I dive straight into the next one!!!

Praying for a HEA!!!!

4.5 ⭐

Twisted Love, the second instalment of the Billionaires of London series, (make sure to read Ruthless Love first!) picks up in the immediate aftermath of the events of book one, with a story that has to be stuck to, despite it not being the truth. Gregory is desperate to protect Scarlett, and she is determined to protect him. The underpinning plot of this novel is will he be charged or not? This jeopardy has both characters vacillating wildly between adoration and anger, particularly Gregory. Scarlett is desperate for him to say he loves her, but he has a secret and won't let her in. Her bosses want her to go to Dubai for six months. Will she go? Will Gregory be charged? And will he let Scarlett in on his past and allow himself to feel?

This novel is a speedboat ride, fast paced and packed full of ups and downs, with sharp turns where you least expect them. Carter has managed to jam it full of suspense - what ifs, mood swings, the awareness the reader has that there are secrets to come out. When it comes to Scarlett, she is an FMC who feels deeply, be it for Gregory, her guilt, her fury, her jealousy, her love for Sandy and Amanda. She is open and vulnerable with him, and every time his mood swings, it hits her hard. She is so blinded by her feelings for him that she can't see that his treatment of her is, whilst tempered by whatever skeletons are in his closet, pretty shoddy. She is always quick to forgive, constantly searching for his approval and his love, which he stubbornly refuses to express directly to her, and it's so sad to see the power she had in book one slip away as a result of the drama at the end and Gregory's subsequent behaviour. When it came to the abrupt ending of this book, I was in some ways relieved for her - it meant she would be able to reclaim some of her lost character (hopefully!) in book three.

Gregory flipping Ryans. How can he be utterly wonderful one moment, and such a controlling, angry and awful man the next? Honestly it was so difficult to keep up with his character. Every time you thought there might be a breakthrough, he turned it on its head again. Incredibly frustrating! I can appreciate that he wants to protect his "Aurora" from the consequences of actions in book one, but his stubborn refusal to let Scarlett in on what has gone on in his past is constantly damaging her, going totally against what he's trying to achieve. He is obsessive and controlling, throws his money at anything and everything he feels it necessary to, and has serious anger management issues. His answer to any conflict seems to be sex, which, whilst HOT (the scene with the feathery stick 🔥), doesn't solve anything. Whatever his demons are, he finally shows some vulnerability at the end of the novel, which is much welcome - but just as you think you're going to get to the bottom of the enigma that is Gregory Ryans, Carter drops a doozy of a curveball. Book three can't come soon enough!

The pacing of this novel is incredible when you consider the actual timeframe over which it takes place is just a couple of weeks. Carter crams in a lot of content during that time, but none of it feels superfluous - it furthers the plot and definitely the dramatic tension with its peaks and troughs of darkness and light.

I feel like Twisted Love was written with the intent of the reader becoming a cheerleader for Scarlett and villainising Gregory just enough that you want Scarlett away from him for a while - long enough for her to rediscover her sense of self-worth, and for him to pull his head out of his behind and realise she's the most incredible woman and he can share his whole life with her, because she would have done anything for him. Even with that going on though, the hopeless romantic reader (like me!), is rooting for them so hard! Their chemistry is undeniable, but they both need to fix themselves a little.

This novel has so much going on, but it never felt like there was *too* much going on. So many novels go astray like that, but this all felt well plotted, careful and deliberate. Even the supporting cast had their own storylines, with will theys and won't theys, all of which added to the rich tapestry of world building Carter has created. I am utterly hooked on Scarlett and Gregory's story, and I cannot wait for the conclusion, of their story and of those around them too.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to review this book!

[Carlina Kinch · Rating 4 out of 5]

I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to the author, the publisher, and Netgalley for allowing me the privilege of being able to arc read this book. I truly appreciate it.

I've had the privilege of being able to arc read the previous book in this series as well, and I did have some issues with it, and unfortunately this time was no different. With the exception of the type of issues. Which actually hurts the most because I completely head over heels fell in love with her most recently released book.

Like I said for the previous book, this wasn't isn't dark or obsessive either. This book is just spice, with some story. The actual story is incredible though and full of so many amazing twists and turns, and cliffhanger that will make you want to swan dive right into the next. But the romance that steals the love from me. Gregory isn't dark and brooding, he's broken and dare I say actually bipolar. I've never ever said this but I feel like I have whiplash from how frequently he would do anything for Scarlett and seem as though he loved her, to them having sex and then every single time right afterwards give her the cold shoulder and push her away. I've read actual dark romances that have more romance. All I really wanted to do was reach through the pages and hug Scarlett! She tries so hard, she gives him her all, she downright loves him, doesn't mess with him or anything. But the part she says at the end, is how I felt throughout this entire book.

Despite what I've said though, this book sucked me in and I honestly wasn't able to put it down. This book does have obsession but its in how much this book can pull you in, so that way you're unable to stop reading until you end up at the final page of the final book in the whole series. I honestly would recommend waiting to read this whole series, unt the final book releases. This series is magnetic and you won't be able to stop after the first book, and you do have to read this series in order.

If you're looking for a spicy, twisty, turny book and book series that will honestly suck you, I can't recommend this one enough!

Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart again for allowing me the privilege of being able to arc read this book. I truly appreciate it.

This is book 2 of a trilogy. It's necessary to read the books in order.

I honestly have problems finding words 🙈
Not that book 1 just ended on a cliffhanger that blew my mind 🤯, no, book 2 is even worse!!! Holy freaking 💩. I'm ☠️ here right now 😱

I couldn't stop reading. And now this... Damnit 😖 I think we all agree with the fact that we hate cliffhangers 😎 But sure, a trilogy will always end on cliffhangers. And not just ones, but twice 🙈

OK, what can I say about the book without spoiling anything? That's REALLY difficult because I don't want to spoil book 1 either 🤔

I still love all the characters. And not just the MCs. I mean, of course I'm absolutely in love with Gregory, even though he behaves like an 🍑🕳️ 😡 Come on, man! You love Scarlett, what's your freaking problem? I need to know! You are such a good man, I don't believe anything else. So why? I don't get it. As I say, I so need book 3 😎

As I said, there are other characters, too. Scarlett's "surrogate mother" Sandy. She first was Scarlett's nanny and then took care of her dad when he got Alzheimer's. She isn't a nurse, but still took the "job" 🩷
Then there is Amanda, Scarlett's best friend and co-worker. She isn't the biggest fan of Gregory, for reasons 🙈

And then there are Gregory's people...
His mom, Lara, who had a really 💩💩💩 life, and I feel so extremely sorry for her. But at least she has a wonderful life now 🩷
Then there are Jackson & Williams. They get even more important roles in the series 😁


Thanks to the author, @theboldbookclub , and @netgalley for trusting me with an ARC 🩷

You guys!!! I was not prepared for the cliffhanger in the first book, but I was most certainly not prepared for the twists and turns in this book. And the cliffhanger in this one equally had me pissed off 😭. This book picks up right after the first one’s ending Scarlett and Gregory just started getting their footing, only to be thrown through a big loop of craziness and sadness. You can’t but feel so bad for Scarlett and all she’s going through. How sad her life has turned and how quickly it’s happened while also truly getting g to let go and enjoy herself. Like come on, who wouldn’t want to be spoiled by a rich billionaire! Sign me up! The British lingo through me off every once in a while, but nothing a little google search can’t fix. Gregory made me want to lull out all my hair in this book. Man has no communication skills 😆. Poor guy has his walls built up so high that nothing shines through. But in true romance fashion, Scarlett is the key to opening him up.

You can see their relation start to grow into something more. You can see that all she wants is a deeper connection. And he does everything in his power to fight it. A losing battle of coarse 🤷‍♀️.

Scarlet you poor girl, I just wanted to hold you and tell you it’ll all be ok. But come on his world is so grey I can’t guarantee you won’t be dragged down more. You start to see her be braver and enjoy things more. She ain’t trying to be so perfect, considering all she’s been through. Poor girl is pure survival mode. But Gregory is more than happy to give her all she needs, and I mean anything 😂.

Gregory, you gotta let her in man. You are making all this so much harder!! And your life is already crazy and had enough 😆.


I got this book as an ARC read from NetGalley.

⭐️⭐️ 2 stars

I wanted to like this more than I did.

The suspense aspect—the murder and looming charges—kept me turning the pages. I genuinely enjoyed the anticipation of wanting to know what would happen next, and that part of the story had real momentum. Unfortunately, the romance itself was where the book lost me.

I struggled a lot with Gregory’s controlling behavior. His dominance went beyond protective and into telling Scarlett what she could and couldn’t do, and it never felt meaningfully challenged. Scarlett is a grown woman with agency, yet the narrative repeatedly asked her (and the reader) to accept behavior that felt more suffocating than romantic.

What made it harder was how often conflict was resolved the same way: an argument, followed by sex, with no real communication or growth afterward. The couple seemed stuck in a loop, having the same issues over and over, and Scarlett consistently giving in without anything actually changing. Instead of feeling like passion, the intimacy started to feel like a way to avoid accountability.

By the end, I found myself questioning why Scarlett continued to put up with the dynamic at all. While the plot kept me engaged, the relationship didn’t evolve enough for me to root for it.

This may work for readers who enjoy very dominant MMCs and sex-heavy conflict resolution, but for me, the lack of emotional growth and agency made it hard to connect.

🩶🖤 Twisted Love ARC Review 🖤🩶

Thank you so much to Laura Carter and Boldwood Books for the opportunity to read and review this book

Twisted Love is a contemporary billionaire romance and book two in the Billionaires of London series. As always this will be as spoiler free as possible, so if this review feels vague - that’s why. After the events at the end of Ruthless Love, Scarlett and Gregory are trying to get their lives back on track. But can they overcome these trials or will they fall apart?

This was a fun contemporary read. I enjoy Scarlett and Gregory as a couple and feel like they compliment each other well. While I enjoyed the story in general, I do feel like a lot of the conflict in this book could have been avoided if the characters would have communicated with each other

Overall this was a solid three star read. I liked the characters and the story, even if I struggled with some of their choices in this book. This book has some darker elements, so please check triggers if you’re sensitive. This book had spicy moments throughout, so overall three flames for spice

If you’re a fan of contemporary romance with broody billionaires and London vibes, then absolutely pick this series up. As this is a continuation of the story started in the first book, I definitely recommend reading them in order.

[Anonymous 5 · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was intense story from start to finish. It's the kind of book that pulls you in emotionally and keeps you there.
The story follows a heroine who gives her loyalty—and her heart—to Gregory Ryans, a rich, powerful man with a dark past. She doesn’t just fall for him; she chooses him, again and again, even when it means keeping dangerous secrets and crossing lines she never thought she would. That made the story feel heavy, emotional, and very real.
Gregory is a classic morally grey billionaire. He believes money can solve anything, but as the story goes on, it becomes clear that his past mistakes and buried secrets are catching up to him. The tension builds steadily, and you can feel the pressure closing in on both of them. There’s always a sense that everything could fall apart at any moment.
The romance is obsessive, complicated, and full of angst. It’s not a perfect love story—it’s messy and risky, which made it more gripping. I liked how the book balanced passion with suspense and emotional conflict.
If you enjoy dark billionaire romances with betrayal, loyalty, and high stakes, then this book certainly delivers. It’s dramatic, emotional, and leaves you thinking about how far you’d really go for the person you love. 
I received a complimentary copy from NetGalley and Boldwood Books and am voluntarily leaving my review.

I had really enjoyed book 1 and remembered that it had been left on a cliffhanger and that I was looking forward to finding out what happened next. Well it turned out I had forgotten the cliffhanger, so it did take a few chapters for everything to fall back into place, but once I remembered who everyone was and what was going on I was like oooh yes this is exciting!
Gregory is a very morally grey character, and there's been times (many times), I have really just wanted to slap him. I really like how clever Scarlett is, she's a great FMC. She is strong too. Her friendship with Amanda has some humour coming through - that yoga session! They clearly truly care for one another.I have enjoyed getting to know Jackson a little more too. He is such a sweetheart. We didn't see as much of Sandy but I love her warm and caring heart.
There is spice galore, just like in book 1.
I feel like in the second half it really upped the ante on the sauciness!
I was on tenterhooks waiting to see what would come from the events of book 1, and I was not disappointed by it's resolution.
The ending just broke me though, I really felt sad for Scarlett and Gregory. I can't wait to see how this is going to wrap up in the final of this trilogy!

⭐️I’m risking everything for you, Gregory. Please let me in.⭐️


⭐️He’s in my veins, he’s in my blood and I’m starting to think he might be the only thing keeping my heart beating.⭐️


Gregory Ryans. You infuriating man. JUST LET SCARLETT LOVE YOU!!

I didn’t know how Laura could top ruthless love but this surpassed anything I was expecting! Picking up exactly where book one finished with both Gregory and Scarlett being interviewed over what happened in the apartment.

This book focuses on waiting for what’s going to happen next as well as Gregory and Scarlett trying to muddle through their relationship, but of course it doesn’t pan out the way you would hope. I was on the edge of my seat pretty much 90% through this book, unable to put it down. I had to know how it would end, even though I knew it would be another cliffhanger.

I had suspicions of how Gregory would push her away, he has issues that man, but I never expected him to do it the way he did!


I’m DESPERATE for tainted love now.

Twisted Love is the second instalment by Laura Carter, and we continue to follow Scarlett and Gregory navigate a life full of tension and secrets.

Carter writes this narrative with so much atmosphere I could feel the emotion behind the point of view of the main character. I felt her frustration, as well as anxiety and hesitation.

This narrative purposefully takes you on a journey, navigating the relationship between the two main characters.

This was told from the point of view of Scarlett, which worked very well because Gregory is such a closed-off character; we feel the frustration towards him.

I loved this push and pull between the characters and wanted to shake them both, although I am sure Gregory is a dangerous man and I would never get close enough to do it 😉.

Although this is the second book in the instalment, Carter catches the reader up, but I would still recommend reading the first book to catch up on the background of the main characters.

[Sylvia Barker · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is actually a 3 1/2 star read for me but since there’s no 3 1/2 option, I’ve opted for a three.

Twisted Love by Laura Carter is the second book in the Billionaires of London series and continues the story of Gregory and Scarlett.

After the events at the end of Ruthless Love (book one in the series), Scarlett and Gregory are at odds about how to manage their precarious situation.

The passion between them is undeniable, but their differences may still mean that their lives are incompatible .

This was an enjoyable, second part in the series, and like the first, ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. There’s plenty of spice for those looking for a bit of a racy read but due to the subject matter of this book, parts of it did feel a little bit more procedural.

Looking forward to the final book in this trilogy, Tainted Love, so that I can see what the future holds for Gregory and Scarlett.

[Lucy · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is book two in the trilogy and as expected, Laura has left me with my mouth agog.
I literally didn’t think the ending of book 2 could shock me as much as book one did - I was wrong!

The story centred around the fallout of the events that occurred at the end of book one. We travel through the book wondering if Gregory will finally forgive himself & let Scarlett in and if Scarlett can stop beating herself up about what she had to do. She’s not a natural rule breaker so she really struggled with living in the morally grey world her love lives in.

We did get some joy from the secondary characters which made me happy.
I have a feeling that by book 3. Our protagonists will get their HEA (please Laura 😅) Our boy will see how much he needs Scarlett & hopefully FINALLY let her in completely!

I really enjoyed Twisted Love and can’t wait for Tainted love, December can’t come fast enough!

Thank you Boldwood Books & Laura Carter for the opportunity to review this book!

Talk about a rollercoaster. I swung back and forth about how many stars to give this one. Our 'hero' and I use the term very loosely here, is a complete control freak and to be honest not the nicest of men. I've read plenty of books where the main character has some darkness alongside the light, but for me, there was little if anything to endear Gregory to the reader. And yet, and yet, I couldn't put it down and wanted to find out what happens next.
As I said, I didn't like Greg, at all. But our heroine Scarlett seems to for some reason. The man is a giant walking red flag. I will read the third and final book in the series. I'm hoping she wakes up and ditches him for someone less controlling and self-obsessed, but I doubt that she will...

This is the second laura carter book ive read but the first in the billionaires of london series. The opening chapter really intrigured me with the events that unfold. Laura creates great tension and suspense here and throughout. the book kept me wanting more with each chapter.
I loved the physical chemistry between scarlett and Gregory. however i did feel at times that Gregory wasnt just arrogant but a bully. i really didnt like how he was with Scarlett. i may go and read book 1 hen i have time to see if this helps me understand gregory more.
In book three if it contains her. i hope we get to see Scarlett understand herself more and be independent away from Gregory.
i also felt that at times too many side chracters were involved although i did love the relationship between amanda and Scarlett it felt super genuine for best friends.

Thank you LBT for having me on this review tour and for my gifted copy of this epub.

This is book 2 thankful didn’t have to wait to long for this next book in the seriecs. This is a series that must be read in order.

Sooo for me I feel like this was better than the first book. I’m not sure what I think was cause Scarlett was just so so good. I loved her. I want to be like her. She needs a medal for staying with him.

I mean I so love a morally grey character especially when he and scarlet have so much chemistry like it’s crazy good but I feel like that’s all they have and they don’t really know each other on a deeper level and I feel like that needs to change like quickly!!


This book was written so well and it’s more than just romance. We had so many twists and turns along the way too. Definitely a series I recommend and needs read asap!!!

[Sonja Charters · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the second book in the Billionaires Of London series and after reading book one - Ruthless Love - back in August and us being left on that ending, I was so happy to see this second book heading our way so soon!

 

This follows on perfectly from where we left off and I honestly didn't think that the tension could build up any more than we'd already seen in book one - but this really kicks in right from the first pages.

I was already desperate to see how this story progressed and I dove straight in in and couldn't put this down.

 

There was a lot going on here that created discord in this relationship and I was actually surprised that Scarlett dealt with as much as she did without leaving.

I loved the sections of inner monologue where we really get to delve around in her thoughts, feelings and emotions about the situation - this is something I do a lot myself and so could really relate to her through this.

 

The chemistry between these two is something else though and certainly explains why they remain bonded.

Will this chemistry be enough though to keep them together longer term.

There's definitely a lot of work to be done.

 

Well, I wasn't surprised by the fact that once again, we're left on a huge cliffhanger - this had me screeching at the end - but I know that book 3 is on the way soon and I cannot wait to get my hands on it and see where this leads.

[Ann-Marie · Rating 4 out of 5]

The fallout from the events at the end of ‘Ruthless Love’ overshadows everything. A slow start as Gregory and Scarlett try to navigate their lives and, particularly for Scarlett, come to terms with what happened and what may happen. The pace soon picks up though with boardroom battles, a new client for Scarlett with the prospect of a six month secondment to Dubai and more business opportunities for Gregory. But at the heart of it all is Scarlett: her fears, her worries and her desperate love for Gregory who won’t let down his walls to her

Very enjoyable, with another cliffhanger ending! I was really pleased to see that the secondary characters continue to grow and explore their own lives, they add depth to the narrative.

This is the second book in this series, I never read the first one so it took me a while to get into it, but once I had I really enjoyed it. The chemistry between the 2 main characters is electric, they love one another but once can't say it to the other which is sad as you know that they are meant to be together forever. The twists and turns in this book have you hooked you need to know what happens so you can't put it down..... The only thing I would say that it needed was more about Gregory's passed I was itching throughout the whole story to find out what happened to him to make him the way he is. Hope there is a third book because if there is I will definitely be picking it up ☺️

3.5
This book had that mix of tension and drama that kept me turning the pages. Gregory and Scarlett were exhausting and addictive all at once. I liked how the emotions felt real. Gregory was complicated in a way that made me want to understand him. Scarlett had heart. Their chemistry was strong, that kind of love hate fire that makes you keep reading just to see what happens next. The writing had a good flow, with enough spice and tension to stay interesting. Some parts felt repetitive, but others hit perfectly, I liked the darker edge mixed with romance. An enjoyable read. Thank you so much to the author and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read the book in advance, I received this for free and I'm leaving an honest review.

REVIEW
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This whole sequel felt like a tautology. The same sentiments were constantly repeated. The only thing different from the first book was the murder charge. Scarlet was a character who didn't love herself and accepted the bare minimum and ignored the red flags. Gregory was an annoying character who refused to open up to Scarlet.

To be honest, the ending was the only thing I liked. Scarlet deserved someone better and healthier than Gregory even if she's too much of an idiot to notice it.

Twisted Love is the second story in the Billionaires of London series. The first story ended on a cliffhanger and this is the continuation of the story. I didn't read the first book so it took me a little while to catch on.

The story picks up from the cliffhanger. Gregory and Scarlett are trying to protect each other. Scarlett wants him to tell her that he loves her. He has a secret she doesn't know about. He would do anything for her. Gregory is a complicated character. Scarlett has heart and strength. How will their story end?

I loved the way that Scarlett loved Gregory. I also loved their chemistry. Their story had so many twists. I look forward to the next story.

Thank you to NetGalley for a copy for an honest review.
