I was completely hooked on this book! The tension, the banter, and the chemistry 🫠 had me squealing the whole way through. Rowan and Holden are such a dynamic, fun couple to follow, and don’t even get me started on THAT ENDING 🙃! This book is utterly captivating, and trust me, you won’t regret a single second of it! Another 5⭐️ read!

Ok, first of all, that ending was RUTHLESS. Here I was just reading alone and poof, the book is done! WTH happened? I need to know what happens!! It was a little slow to start, but ramped up towards the end. However, I can already feel the miscommunication coming and I'm not totally thrilled about it. Also, he is out for revenge and she's going to be collateral damage and I am not looking forward to that fall out either. But also, I can't stop reading it, so maybe that's the way to keep us reading? Either way, I enjoyed this book. Was it the best I've ever read? No. But it was an enjoyable read and would recommend to most people.

Oh. Em. Geeee. Kristy, seriously what the eff was that. For the first time ever you have left me speechless and wanting to cuss all at the same time. Friends you have to read the book to find out why.

Holden. I love Holden. I will never forget him. Rowen was pretty amazing too, but this is Holdens time to shine. I love him so much. I loved the spice, I loved the revenge, I loved everything. There is nothing hotter than a morally grey billionaire man with a sad past. Seriously I will never stop thinking about this book.

"Being with him feels like I’ve been struck by lightning."

Rowen is the only Rothschild who cares about the legacy of her family business. Stuck in a world where the women are supposed to be seen and not heard she wants to become CEO. Unfortunately her brother is CEO and makes a deal with the devil, or in other words Holden Knight. Knight is out for revenge, but doesn't bank on Rowen and her determination.

WOOW! I had no idea what I was in for with this book and man was I pleasantly surprised.

K. Bromberg was masterful at deliciously building tension that had you wanting to lick the plate and ask for seconds.

Rowan has never fit into the perfect life her parents and society want for her. Holden has had his eye on revenge long in the making. What they least expect is for the other to derail their plans.

This book was absolutely phenomenal! The chemistry between the characters was off the charts, and the tension kept me on the edge of my seat. The emotional depth of the story added so much heart, making every moment feel significant. The writing was immersive, and the plot had just the right balance of drama and romance.

Revenge, romance, and power. This was such a fun enemies to lovers romance filled with tension and emotional turmoil. The romance was so well done and the story had me invested from the start. I really had so much fun reading this and can't wait to read the next book from the author. I enjoyed the author's writing style and the way she built the romance between the characters. I'm a sucker for a dark intense romance and this one hit the mark for me!

Kings of Sin meets Things We Left Behind in K. Bromberg’s latest sizzling romance, a gripping tale of revenge, power struggles, and undeniable attraction that will leave you breathless.

Holden is back with a vengeance. After being cast out and left for dead, he’s returned to ensure that those responsible never forget the consequences of their actions. But what he didn’t plan for? Rowan—the woman who’s been overshadowed her whole life but is finally ready to claim her own power. She’s fierce, determined, and the one person who can make him question everything.

This story is a masterful blend of enemies-to-lovers tension, deep emotional turmoil, and raw chemistry that leaps off the page. Rowan is a powerhouse heroine who refuses to be overlooked, and Holden is the perfect mix of brooding intensity and vulnerability. Their connection is electric, and every interaction between them is laced with heat, resentment, and an underlying pull that neither can resist.

Bromberg’s signature storytelling shines in this novel—filled with high stakes, scorching passion, and a plot that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The twists are sharp, the emotions run deep, and the romance is fiery enough to set the pages ablaze.

If you love a dark, intense romance with characters who fight for what they want—whether it’s justice, power, or love—this book is a must-read. K. Bromberg has once again crafted a story that lingers long after the last page.

This Book, like wow! I wasn’t expecting how good this book ended up being! I love finding new to me authors and she will hands down be a go to author now. I can’t wait for book two in the Tangled Hearts. I am obsessed with K. Brombergs writing style, steam, angst, romance all wrapped into one with a pretty little bow.

Rowan, is beautiful…and rich. She is expected to live the lavish and domestic lifestyle, but she wants more. She is constantly in competition with her brother, her parents golden boy. But she is brilliant and resilient and determine to prove it.
Then enter Holden, he Is handsome and charismatic, and he comes in to rock her world. But their chemsity is undeniable. The banter is wonderful. I have never wanted to see a couple get together in a book so bad in my life.
But then bam, that ending…..ughhhhhh. just me patiently waiting for book two, and it can’t come soom enough!
This was a beautiful start to an amazing series – I need MOREEEEEE.
I am not big into billionaire romances, but this one sucked me in so quick, and I am in loveeee with these characters.

Tropes:
• Enemies to lovers
• Revenge
• Workplace romance
• Boss/employee romance
• Billionaire alpha hero
• Spicyyyyyyyy
• Secret love

This the the first part to the Tangled Hearts trilogy and what a fantastic introduction it was! This one has set the story and the characters up brilliantly and I cannot wait to see how this is going to play out.

Holden is quite the character. He is determined and calculated and will do whatever it takes to get revenge on his brother. Rowen is strong and sassy but is constantly overshadowed by her brother. she does all the hard work and he gets all the glory!

Kristy did a brilliant job with this one, setting the scene and dynamics between Holden and Rowan, their banter, their chemistry is enticing. This is filled with family secrets, humour, vengeance mixed with romance and chemistry, making this a must read.

I cannot wait for the next instalment now

That ending!!! Another amazing read by K. Bromberg. I absolutely loved this enemies to lovers storyline. Holden and Rowen have smoking hot chemistry and banter for days. I can’t wait for the next book!

This was such an interesting read. I loved it. Revenge, fall for the boss/enemy, romance, and so much more. It did end on a cliffhanger so I definitely need the next one. I can't wait to see what happens.

Firstly, this is not a standalone, so if you're looking for a book with a neat HEA, this is not the book for you. I repeat, there is a cliffhanger so don't anticipate feeling warm and fuzzy at the end of it.

Enemies-to-lovers is and always will be a top-tier trope, if not my favourite of all time so I was always going to enjoy this book.

Holden and Rowan, love the names, loved their banter and chemistry. It's the perfect billionaire romance with the right amount of spice and plot. Tragic backstory from the MMC, check. Strong alpha boss female, check. Also, we love a dirty talking MMC!

This book wasn't quite for me. The author's writing was good, but the characters and plot just weren't my vibe.

This is my first book by K. Bromberg and it definitely won't be my last! I was absolutely sucked into this book. I read half of it in one sitting! A billionaire romance with a secret revenge plot, hidden identity, tortured hero and fierce FMC? Yes, please! K. Bromberg gives us all of this in a gritty and heated story that keeps you reading well into the night.

The writing style is so well done. The storyline, the character development, the angst, the steam, were all amazing. K. Bromberg was able to weave together the overall plot and the spice perfectly, so that one didn't overtake the other. I loved the dual pov as well, as it gave us an ideal amount of insight into each character. The highlighting and challenging of misogyny and corruption throughout the story were interesting to read as the character's tried to navigate their way through these tough issues.

Rowan is such a great FMC. She's born into a wealthy family, and part of elite society, but fights against the notion that women should be seen and not heard. She's aware of the privilege that she has, but she doesn't look down on others and deeply cares about helping people. In everything Rowan does, you can see how smart, and hardworking she is. We love a woman who's tough and always ready to fight for what she believes in.

Holden Knight. Remember that name because he will be your next book boyfriend. I'll be honest, I did not like Holden in the beginning. I felt he was very arrogant and rude, and seemed to perpetuate the same misogyny displayed by Rowan's family. But, boy did he grow on me! He's mysterious, he's broody, and he came to play chess, not checkers! Learning his backstory was heartbreaking, and opened up a whole new facet of who he is. He was my favorite character to learn about and watch grow because there is just so much depth to him. And I completely support his revenge plan!

Together, Rowan and Holden were chef's kiss. Their chemistry is off the charts! The tension between them was palpable every time they were on the page together, and the banter? Top tier. Watching them slowly let down their walls and open up to each other gave me butterflies. This is a slow burn, so it takes a bit for them to get together, but the payoff is well worth it.

Now when K. Bromberg said in her bio that she makes you work for the happily ever afters, I should've been prepared, but alas, I was not. I think I actually screamed when I read the last sentence. That ending had me on the edge of my seat, and I'm waiting with bated breath for book two. Everything does not get wrapped up in book one, so be prepared for the ride! Overall, I highly enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next one!

A book about business, family, revenge and everything in between. Rowan is part of her family business, she unlike some of her family members works very hard and wants this business to succeed more than anything. She is very surprised when she finds out her brother has decided to sell part of it. Holden came from nothing and is now beyond successful. He is buying a failing business, for him this is more than business it’s about revenge. Holden has secrets on top of his secrets and he isn’t sharing with anyone. The only thing he does share is some incredible chemistry with Rowan. This had a killer cliffhanger and more questions to be answered.

The push and pull of tension and the desire to dominate are strong in this romance. The chemistry between Holden and Rowan can be felt immediately as they fight their attraction. The relationship between Rowan and her brother and his friend is frustrating to say the least, but that sends her into Holden's arms and just when you think you know where it's going it ends on a cliffhanger. I can't wait to read more of this fated love story. I listened to the audiobook and it's very well done.

I recently finished Twisted Knight, and I have to say, it was a captivating read that kept me hooked from start to finish. The story revolves around Holden and Rowan, two characters whose lives are intertwined by past traumas and present desires, creating a compelling narrative filled with tension and undeniable chemistry.

One of the things I loved most about this book is the character development. Holden is such a complex figure, driven by a fierce sense of justice and loyalty. I found myself relating to his internal struggles as he navigated the delicate balance between vengeance and love, especially in his evolving relationship with Rowan. Their dynamic was electric, and I could feel the tension between them throughout the story.

Bromberg’s writing style really drew me in. She has a way of creating immersive and evocative scenes that balance high-stakes moments with quieter, introspective ones. The pacing felt just right—there were no dull moments, and I was always eager to see what would happen next. The small-town setting added an intimate layer to the story, amplifying themes of entrapment and the weight of past decisions.

What stood out to me was how Bromberg explored heavy themes like betrayal and familial expectations. The flashbacks were seamlessly woven into the narrative, providing essential context without disrupting the flow. This thoughtful structure allowed me to fully grasp the complexities of Holden and Rowan's relationship while building suspense leading up to a dramatic cliffhanger.

Overall, Twisted Knight was an enthralling read that beautifully combined romance with deeper themes of identity and revenge. While it did touch on familiar tropes within the billionaire romance genre, Bromberg managed to infuse it with originality and emotional depth. I’m definitely looking forward to the next installment in this series! I’d give it a solid four stars!

I was absolutely hooked by Twisted Knight from the very first page! K. Bromberg has once again delivered an intense, passionate, and gripping romance that I couldn’t put down. This book has everything I love—drama, angst, slow-burn chemistry, and a perfectly executed enemies-to-lovers dynamic. If you’re a fan of Bromberg’s work, you know she knows how to craft a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat, and Twisted Knight is no exception.

The story follows Rowan Rothchild, a determined and smart woman who is ready to step out of her family's shadow and take control of their billion-dollar spirits company. Raised in a town with outdated views on women’s roles, Rowan is fighting for her place in a male-dominated world. Her biggest obstacle? Her brother Rhett, who decides to sell a significant chunk of the business to Holden Knight, a mysterious and driven tech mogul with a personal vendetta.

Holden may have once been the poor boy from the wrong side of town, but he’s no longer that guy. Now a powerful figure, his plan for revenge is to take over the Rothchild family business—and to make Rhett pay. What he doesn’t expect, though, is how deeply he’ll become entangled with Rowan. Their late-night encounters and constant bickering lead to an undeniable attraction that neither of them can ignore. But with emotions running high, Holden is left wondering whether his desire for revenge will overshadow what he feels for Rowan.

Rowan is a total girl boss, and I loved her for it. Despite coming from a town where her ambitions as a woman were constantly challenged, she was determined to prove everyone wrong. She knew her worth, wasn’t afraid to fight for her place, and never let anyone stand in her way. What made her even more compelling was that she was willing to put in the hard work to achieve her goals—unlike her lazy, entitled brother. She was everything I could root for in a heroine!

As for Holden, he was the epitome of a brooding, cocky, and ridiculously hot hero. He oozed "boss" energy but did so in a way that didn’t make him obnoxious—there was just something so magnetic about him. His past was complicated and filled with pain, and as his motivations for revenge unfolded, I found myself understanding and empathizing with him on a much deeper level. It was clear that even though he came into this situation wanting to get back at the Rothchilds, Rowan was slowly breaking down his walls, and that made for some truly satisfying character growth.

The chemistry between Rowan and Holden? Off the charts. The tension between them was absolutely electric, with the slow build-up making every interaction more delicious than the last. The banter was hilarious, the sexual tension palpable, and their jealousy and possessiveness over each other just made the whole dynamic even more addicting. This is one of the best enemies-to-lovers builds I’ve read in a while, and the payoff was worth every bit of slow-burn tension.

Honestly, Twisted Knight was a wild ride from start to finish. I was so invested in Rowan and Holden’s story that I couldn’t put it down, but I do have to admit, that cliffhanger? K. Bromberg, how could you?! It left me dying to know what happens next, and I can’t wait for the continuation of their story. I truly believe they deserve a happily ever after, and Holden—well, he definitely deserves some justice.

If you’re a fan of steamy romance, tension-filled banter, and a truly satisfying enemies-to-lovers plot, Twisted Knight is a must-read. I can’t recommend it enough
