Perfectly Warped

Rate this book
I shouldn’t have looked for him.
I was taking a huge chance but my survival depended on it.

I stared at his picture most of my life and thought I knew him.
When I finally had the balls to approach him
I realized he was nothing like what I thought.
Nothing like what Mom said.
He was so much more.
My mother had no idea what kind of man she let slip through her fingers.

I refused to fall for him.
To let forbidden thoughts rule our new relationship.
But every day I spent with him changed me.
It changed both of us.

We were turning into something dark and tangled.
Something unnatural.
Something deplorable.
Something I wanted to last forever.

Review by Puss’n’Books. Reviewing the darkest, most erotic and taboo books we can find. Click HERE for your next disturbingly sexy read.


This one took me a little out of my comfort zone...which I freakin’ love!
It was immediately too taboo for Amazon so you know what that means?
Yup, it’s perfect for us!

It’s one of those books that get you thinking.
What would I do if that happened to me?

What do you do when you have an immediate attraction to someone only to find out you’re related?
And not as in way distant cousins related but as in immediate family related?

RIVIA
Damn! This one turned me all the way on! And I’m really not gonny take a closer look inside to figure that out, lol.

Rivia is a young woman who was brought up by her mum. It was just the two of them until a horrid accident killed her and Rivia was left pretty much homeless and penniless.
She’s never met her father but her mum always kept one photo of him. She told Riv that he was a bit of a player and too irresponsible to settle down so she never bothered to tell him about his daughter.
Having exhausted all other options she decides it’s time to go looking for her dad and ask if there is any way he can help her out.

Only thing is...when she tracks him down her va-jay-jay is like “damn he’s hot!”
Mhmm, shit gets hot and dirty and riddled with taboo treats :-)

The inner battle is intense.

TERRANCE
Okay, I’m just gonny say it. I need me a daddy like this.

Terrance is a recovering alcoholic. One day he’s leaving an AA meeting and spots a young woman heading towards him and he’s all like “Damn, baby. You belong in my bed!”, in his head.
(Okay, he’s much smoother and more sophisticated than that).

So when she says that she’s his daughter he’s all like “wtf?”

He decides that he needs to see some DNA proof before he even considers this a possibility.
But that can take up to 6 weeks to get the results back.

And she’s homeless now sooo...yeah he says she can stay with him in the guest bedroom until shit gets sorted out.
That may have been a bad decision, lol. Depending on how you look at it.

SEX SCENES
I had to stop halfway through to replace Bob’s batteries so...yeah, that’s how hot these scenes were :-)

“Please what? Hmm, angel?” I kissed my way up her flat stomach leaving behind wet spots from her juices still on my lips. Still soaking my beard. “Please fuck me,” she begged. The savage inside of me was free and leaping from every tall point before sinking deep into the shadows and drinking from murky waters. “Call my name,” I told her, hovering over her tight, quivering body. My hard dick was pressed against her creamy, slick cunt. “Terrence,” she breathed, touching my face, swiping her fingers across my lips. When she dipped those slender fingers into her mouth a carnal, feral growl rumbled through me and made her shudder. “No, little girl. Say it. Say who I am. Say what we both know.” I slid the head of my dick up and down her slit. The juicy noises her pussy made threatened to make me come all over her without even getting inside. She locked unapologetic eyes with me and said, “Fuck me, Daddy.” A roar tore from me right when I plunged inside her tight wet pussy. I’d fallen headfirst into the sweetest sin. I was screwed for life because I knew I’d never let her go. Her ankles locked behind me, begging me to cram her full of every inch of dick I had. “Mmm, oh my fucking god!” She squeaked when I thrust inside her. “Such a tight little pussy, Rivia. And you’re so wet for me, goddammit.” I hammered into her, dealing punishing strokes. I leaned down and found the slim column of her throat with my teeth, sinking into the tendons there. Her pulse beat anxiously beneath my tongue and lips. I wanted to swallow every thump. I wanted her running through me. I wanted to mark her. I needed her to wear me in public. Wear my bruises and my scent, show the world who she belonged to. Fuck what they had to say. Her screams were the most erotic sounds I’d ever heard. No other man could hear those noises coming from her. Not after I’d been inside of her. “Did you fuck him, angel?” I asked, staring into her beautiful honey eyes. “No. Never. You’re the only one I want. Oh, god, Terrence.” She bit her bottom lip so hard that teeth marks were still etched into the pillowy softness when she released it. I pulled it into my mouth and sucked then teased her tongue with mine. “Good. You’re mine now. Every part of you.” I felt her body tighten. Her pussy clenched around my thick cock and squeezed hard and long. “Come for me, baby. Soak my dick.” I looked down to where I was buried inside of her and groaned. Such a perfect sight. “Mmm, Daddy I’m gonna come so fucking hard.”


FINAL THOUGHTS ON PERFECTLY WARPED by Danielle James
This one had a few twists and turns that I did not see coming. It had a great mix of danger, heart-ache, sexy scenes and taboo topics. And I particularly liked the personal note from Danielle at the end of the book (you gotta read that).
I have yet to read anything by Ms James that is less than 5 stars.

sigh...another one of those heroines to whom cleanliness is just an afterthought.
After being kidnapped, held captive, sexually assaulted, violently beaten and stitched up, her first move once home is to get onto the bed WITHOUT cleaning herself up. Nary a thought of water crosses this idiot's mind. Not even a damn wet wipe. Not even a DRY wipe for that matter. Ugh. Naasty nasty child. She gets the hint when the H goes to the bathroom and only cos she's ogling ass in the first place.
At least this time its not the author who forgot to make her heroine wash her ass. She just created a h who cant be bothered.

Its mostly a good story but the heroine put me off and it was too insta everything.

I am feeling like.....mmm..kay. The plot was good, the writing was beautiful and it flowed easily. However, it lacked that wow factor for me.
Also, the whole taboo incest thing. It wasn't glaringly obvious. I mean, yes, there was a passing thought in the very back of my mind that Rivia and Terrence are father and daughter but the way the story was presented didn't make the relationship feel as forbidden and taboo as we would think with this trope. I don't even know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Nothing made me uncomfortable or cringe and the steamy scenes were 🔥
Like I said....it was okay.

I knew what I was getting into when I started so that didn't bother me. What bother the living shit out of me were the characters. Both of them! They would make a nun commit murder. They were so full of self-pity it was nauseating. Not to mention annoying as fuck.

The only good thing about this was the steam. The sex was 🔥🔥🔥 and that is the only reason am even bothering with a 2 star.

❌ trigger warnings *coff* *coff* incest

Amazing, perfection, loved it!! Danielle James writes amazing books, I've loved everything she's written and co-written so far. So why not 5 stars? Despite the huge taboo subject it didn't *feel* like a taboo. Not really until the last pages where they got the DNA results and in the epilogue with their daughter who has an eye problem. It's perfectly written, characters are nice. Terrence is a freaking hot daddy, I want him 🥺.

I have mixed feelings about this one.. i liked it but i didn't love it.
The thing i liked the most of course it's the taboo part of it, incest more likely this is why i picked it up other than the fact that this author writes really good and make you feel like it's normal everything about their relationship.
What i didn't enjoy was her past and her ex bf involvement in this reading, also i didn't like that she wasn't his first love , at least if they both have a past let them have something special like this true love you know? i felt like her ex involvement in this story kind of killed the story for me, and i didn't like her going to him , just NOPE. I don't wanna give other spoilers but for me that was cheating i don't care if they weren't an item 100%, they already kissed..if that happened before when they were fighting their feelings and hiding them i would've be ok with me but not after they started something.
Anyway overall it was a nice read, the incest didn't bother me at all, mostly what i said above. I feel like i needed more from this story you know?

Hmmm... So, I don't know what to think about that. Well, I actually do but I don't want to say it.

Basically, a girl found the man that she thought might've been her biological dad. Instead of filling us with paternal love and father-daughter bonding, we got a different version of bonding here.
I wanted to crack my own head open and pluck out the sick dirty parts that made me feel so deeply and strongly for her. I wanted to sit on someone’s couch and beg them to analyze the warped parts of me. There had to be something not connecting in my brain.
Whatever it was, the same thing failed to connect in Rivia’s brain. We were both warped but somehow we fit together perfectly.

This is not my first incest romance, no sirree. But I don't know why that last chapter bothered me a little bit. Rarely in books like this, we see the real physical (and scary) impact of what they do. So, that's an eye opening moment for me.

However, this is fiction. Not a thing to be copied in real life, no matter how it felt differently in that small window of time. And as a book, it was pretty nice. BTW, my rating is no way is caused by my uncomfortable feelings. I just was bored in the first half of the book. The next half was better (in which my uncomfortableness started skyrocketing 😅).

Lo leí muy rápido y tienes escenas de bachata horizontal muy buenas pero hay cosas a las que no le veo sentido. Las decisiones de la protagonista se me hicieron absurdas! El Instalove fue horrible. A ver, me gusta que al verse por primera vez haya atracción pero que a las semanas se digan que se aman??? I mean... No. Tiene otras muchas cositas que no me gustaron pero dos estrellas porque lo leí en 4 horas

I want to read everything Danielle James has published and everything she might put out in the future.

Once again, I’m taken in awe by Ms. James magnificent writing. This taboo book is out of this world, and it’s dangerous and sinfully good. I like the tiptoeing aspect of this novel. Where both characters fear the truth and know the destruction this would bring if truth every gets out.

Again I want to express how throughly and realistically both characters were fleshed out.

Both Terrance and Rivia felt an instant connection like none other and they tried so—hard—to stay off from each other because forming a sexual relationship is a NO—NO.

I held in my breathe many a times because of the nature of it. I was rooting for the couple though. Terrance possessiveness was on display many a times in the book and I swear that it made the book more appealing and spellbinding.

“Such a tight little pussy, Rivia. And you’re so wet for me, goddammit.” I hammered into her, dealing punishing strokes. I leaned down and found the slim column of her throat with my teeth, sinking into the tendons there. Her pulse beat anxiously beneath my tongue and lips. I wanted to swallow every thump. I wanted her running through me. I wanted to mark her. I needed her to wear me in public. Wear my bruises and my scent, show the world who she belonged to. Fuck what they had to say.


🥵🥵🥵☄️☄️🔥🔥🔥🔥

Overall I think the novel was absolutely spectacular, and it’s a refreshing breath of brisk air that stands out, compared to some taboo books I’ve read.

The plot line and the characters melded together to forge a forbidden romance—two things that are linked. The way the story unfolded makes a unique backdrop for a scandalous story.

Ms. James is an articulated and artistic writer. Her books always have a full dosage of scorching hot sensuality in them. Also her books are sweet, smutty, fantastic, and truly engaging and I’m literally obsessed with them.

Get her books they are outrageously good.

If a book is described as taboo, I HAVE to read it. I don’t know why I waited so long to pick this one up. It was really good and didn’t shy away from the topic. I thought it might pull a cop out with the whole DNA test situation but I was pleasantly surprised. I mean if you’re gonna go there, then go there, and this author totally did. Loved it!!

"Sometimes, things aren’t meant to be on the straight and narrow. Not everything can be explained away. Sometimes, warped things could be beautiful and perfect too."

Danielle James' Perfectly Warped has become one of my FAVORITES from her. She knows how to write some GOOD taboo romance for us forbidden lovers. I fully loved the characters, the chemistry, and the suspense!!!

Wowwwww this book 👀 I absolutely LOVED IT. I started it very early this morning thinking I’d read a chapter before going to bed. Well. Yeah that didn’t happen. I read the entire damn book because I couldn’t put it down. It was EXTREMELY taboo, but so good. The writing is excellent and the story is so good. If you’re good with taboo then I highly recommend this book!

My first book By Miss Danielle, and now I'm warped too, and I'm never going back, miss girl you just gained a life long fan.
This book was so well written, the love between Riva and Terrence was beautiful, corrupt and absolutely sinful!
Be WARNED , THIS STORY IS NOT FOR THE WEAK
THEY ARE IN FACT 99.9% FATHER AND DAUGHTER.👩🏾‍🦯
Also the side characters, omg, Bear and Shadow— smash .
Daddy Terrence ofcourse too, the way this man just corrupted my soul, the chokehold he had on me from chapter one was not normal, I knew, I just knew I was never going to be the same, I felt absolutely ravaged.
And Riva girll I feel you, I would have Fucked him too, I'm not even gonna lie 👁️👄👁️.

Una historia tabú interesante al menos en planteo, hasta ahora había leído incesto entre hermanos pero nunca un padre-hija. No sé muy bien qué decir, como toda historia tabú, es extraña. Podría haber tomado una rienda distinta, pero la sentí una novela sacada de Wattpad (tal vez lo es y no me enteré de ello).
En la trama se tocan temas como tráfico de drogas y delincuencia, algo que creí que iba a estar mejor mezclado con la trama principal que obviamente iba a ser la historia de amor. Pero fue tomado a la ligera, con naturalidad, como si todos entendiéramos el submundo de las drogas. No me gustó cómo fue tomado este punto.
Otro punto negativo es la violencia doméstica que sufrió y sufre Rivia a lo largo de la trama. Es un tema tremendamente importante y por ende con muchísimo desarrollo por delante que fue totalmente desaprovechado. Más que eso, fue tomado a la ligera, como un par de golpes sin más. Siento que la autora quiso darle importancia pero no supo abordar el tema. Esto también me pasó con la adicción al alcohol de Terrence, que podría haber sido puntapié a muchas situaciones que simplemente no se desarrollaron. Esto sin mencionar también la falta de profundidad de los personajes, que termino esta historia sin empatizar con ninguno, lo cual es extraño porque siempre me encariño y empatizo con alguno. No sentí en ningún momento que alguien buscase un objetivo en la vida, que participaran de la trama con un motivo (buscar la felicidad en la vida no es un objetivo; es parte del "algo" común).
En fin, sin ánimos de seguir spoileando, siento que es una historia que contó a medias, que tenía muchísimo más para dar pero se quedó a mitad porque no se desarrolló lo suficiente (y tuvo algunas frases desacertadas para mi gusto a lo largo del libro). ¿Podría mejorar? Absolutamente. Sin embargo, es solo mi opinión y por lo tanto, es subjetiva, sin intenciones de herir ni molestar a nadie.
Espero leer pronto a la autora en alguna otra obra, siento que debería darle otra oportunidad.

Extremely taboo . . . And my first book to date by this author. I was a bit hesitant to read this after the blurb, but what the heck! Jump right in and see how dirty it can be. And you wanna know what? I. Loved. It. Yep, I am warped just enough to see through the stigma and really be able to see the true love story for what it is. I never did think that this was dirty and disgusting, I actually was rooting for Terrence and Rivia! Yep you read that right!

So if you aren't afraid of a little taboo, then get this book now! It's way better than Mr. Grey and will keep you squirming and wanting to read undisturbed and alone! Danielle James has a magical gift with words to create this amazing and unique and extremely taboo story and make it so acceptable. It gave me the feels all throughout and I would not hesitate to read anything by Danielle James ever! I want this book in print so I can pass it around like its a forbidden and banned book!

Break out the oven mitts and grab a spare pair of panties. This book is too hot to handle! ‘Perfectly Warped’ is one of the best taboo romances I have ever read.

This is not sugarcoated taboo. There is none of the typical stepfamily or other ‘related only on paper’ pussyfooting. The plot of ‘Perfectly Warped’ is based on a potential relationship between two adults who may or may not be father and daughter. If this is too taboo for you, don’t read this.

I look at taboo relationship books as many people may look at action or horror movies. I have no desire to fall in love with my relatives. Equally speaking my friends who love action and horror films don’t go around shooting people and stealing vehicles.

That said, the raw passion between Rivia and Terrence was off the charts! The alternating points of view were written brilliantly. They flowed in such a way that it was like watching two rivers draw near to their point of confluence.

Incesto. Diferencia de edad. Daddy issues.
Un mezcla potente que a pesar de lo retorcido lo disfrute mucho, además tiene escenas subiditas de tono bastante calientes, y lo mejor, son varias.

Terrance luego de salir de la reunión de Alcohólicos anónimos ve a una mujer de la cual se siente inmediatamente atraído, para su sorpresa ella se le acerca y le confiesa que es su hija, si vaya bomba jajajaja.

Ya que Rivia, hija de Terrance, llega tan inesperadamente a la vida de este pidiéndole si podía quedarse con él debido a que tras la muerte de su madre quedó sin hogar, este claramente duda que ella sea su hija biológica ya que ni se acordaba de la madre de ella. Pero si, es verdad, 99,99% su padre.

Alerta SPOILER
Quien diría que tras caer bajo los retorcidos deseos de ambos terminarían con una hija y casados.

To be honest, I decided to pick this book up without know exactly what it was about so I for a big part of the reading I was expecting that everything was a big misunderstanding. How wrong I was 😳

I can't say that I hated the book but I also didn't loved it. I didn't connect with the characters and besides the taboo aspect the story is nothing that special.

I'm curious with this author too (and even the taboo aspect of her books 😳) so I'll be reading more of her in the future.

Este tipo de temas no es lo mío, entonces si el incesto no es lo tuyo no lo leas, sufrirás.






~spoilers~






Prácticamente su relación nació de la atracción sexual, no sentí que se enamorarán de verdad fue solo sexo.
Lo de tener un bebé a pesar de saber las consecuencias fue tan egoísta. Si ya están en una relación incestuosa mínimo las consecuencias deberían quedarse con ellos y no arrastrar a un pobre bebé inocente, tan fácil pudieron ir por al adopción.

This is my first foray into "Real Incest" ®. I usually prefer the step brother flavor but I figured I would read this and I loved 99% of the book except the epilogue.

Spoilers below

I believe it is unethical to have a child between blood related parents and so that was the only thing I couldn't get behind with this story and for that sole reason it has to be 3.5 stars instead of the 4.5 it could've been.
