Revenge is most definitely a slippery slope and with Twisted Knight, a truly complicated conundrum. Especially for Holden Knight and the intricate plan he has to destroy the lives and company of those who wronged him long ago. K. Bromberg takes us on a ride that is filled with vitriol, entitlement and the need for retaliation so intense it was hard at times to know who to root for. But as we get to understand the reasons for Holden's quest for retribution and get a rare glimpse of not only his life 15 years prior but the need to continue to help his former neighborhood, I found that I really liked him. I simply got his desire to get back at the two wealthiest families in town and all he would do to achieve victory. However, his not counting on falling for the current CEO's younger sister and assumed bride of the current COO for the family business Holden was taking apart piece by piece created more than a few roadblocks in his devious plan. But it's that wicked attraction to Rowan Rothschild he didn't think possible that might be Holden's biggest tragedy of all.

Oh my goodness, this ultimate game of cat and mouse is further intensified by the power plays everyone is throwing out there, making Rowan's head spin almost daily. Her fight against her attraction for the soon-to-be owner of her family's beloved beverage business becomes beyond difficult as Holden plays dirty and throws a carrot or two to Rowan wrt her wanting more than just her job as a marketing VP. But when these two finally succumb to all that sexual tension they give off with each new encounter, watch out! Both are out of their minds with lust, desire and need that consume both of them like never before. And I loved every minute!

As the twists and turns of Holden's decision to obtain justice for his younger brother Mason start to unravel a bit, especially with the bomb dropped on him as the story comes to a close, I can't imagine what Bromberg will have in store for us in the next book. With Holden thirsty to make Mason proud and ultimately destroy Rhett Rothschild and Chadwick Williams and the rest of the snobby country club members one by one, I'm afraid his recently beating heart may turn cold once more if Rowan becomes nothing more than just another employee.

I did love that Holden truly understood Rowan and her need for more in this world besides being the requisite wife and mother. And in turn, Rowan began to see the real Holden, the man who would move mountains for those he cared for even as he dismantled the lives of those closest to her. She's the one who I believe will be faced with the true test of courage: whether to continue to back her devious family or take sides with the man who allowed her to touch lightning over and over again.

As you can tell, although both Rowan and Holden are the kinds of characters you may want to shake from time to time, not to mention throttle as their lives become wildly entwined, I liked their compatibility, their passion for each other and their work and how both wouldn't back down no matter what. They are a match made in the less desirable part of heaven yet I can't deny how much they truly fit. They are each other's greatest challenge and I can only hope they are also each other's salvation when all is said and done.

When looking for a book that will keep you turning the pages, feel every emotion possible, be frustrated like crazy in the very best way and also be a bit gobsmacked at how all the diabolical behind-the-scenes action shapes this storyline, then Twisted Knight is for you. I have to admit I am looking forward to the ultimate showdown and reveal as all the reasons for Holden's seemingly harsh actions come to light and he possibly risks losing a bit of happiness for the revenge he seeks. But I have confidence K. Bromberg will satisfy my curiosity and give us the conclusion we'll all want.

In the meantime, I happily give Twisted Knight a big 5 stars!

Well Now!!!! That was a doozie of a mic drop!!!

This story had me completely in its grasp. It’s deliciously devious with twists and turns along with deep seated hurt and the need to make things right.
A real snapshot into the life of the elite and entitled …..I’m cheering for the underdog all the way!

Holden Knight is an absolute force…I love him! His plan is so brilliantly connived…I was firmly in his corner from the very beginning and the more we got to know the man beneath the perfect suit the more I wanted him to win.

Rowan is trying to be a tough cookie and I really admire her tenacity…I felt for her and the position she found herself in…Even if I felt she needed to open her eyes at times….I felt she didn’t ask enough question for me and she certainly should have pushed her brother more on his motives….I so wanted her to fight her family and everything they stood for….the way they dismissed her and kept reminding her of her ‘place’ got my back right up!! Which I’m guessing is exactly what the author wanted it to do!!!
I’m still waiting for Rowan to fully embrace her own self and trust her own instincts without falling back on family connections…..I really hope she has a wicked plan up her sleeve….I just hope she figures it out before making such a huge mistake….

Ms Bromberg has written Rowan and Holden’s relationship beautifully. From the angry distrust to the intelligent banter then the reluctant attraction and all the intimacies in between…

This story of cat and mouse, secrets and lies will have you raging…cheering for the underdog and hoping it all comes out the way it should in the next visit to this world. There are so many more revelations to come. Also some real ‘grown-up’ talks are required to figure out who has done the dirty on who…..!

Can’t wait for the next tangled heart instalment!

A story about revenge with sizzling hot chemistry.

Rowan is shocked when she finds the man that she met at a party in the office of her family’s company. Especially upon finding out that now he has majority of shares and knows of the fact that it’s her dream to become the boss of the firm.


I spent quite a good time reading this story. Though it’s not my top favourite book written by K. Bromberg, it was a good book. The chemistry between the characters was off charts, I could feel the tension between them in every scene with them involved. I was just waiting for it to finally blow up and boy it did, like a fireworks show. It made me enjoy the book even more.

I liked the revenge plot in the story and it being the main reason why Holden got himself involved with Rowan’s family. It was so good to little by little find out what made him take such steps.
But I have to admit that in the middle part of the book the whole plot of the story wasn’t so good. It’s also the only reason why I had to lower my rating. There were moments during reading that I felt that nothing was happening the book, especially halfway through the story.

But the ending was so freaking good. I have to admit that before reading the story I had no idea that would end with such a cliffhanger and now I’m waiting impatiently for the next book. I can’t wait to find out how Rowan and Holden’s story will continue.

Incredible and totally captivating! It’s got hostile takeovers, a whole lot of revenge, backroom deals and NDA’s, and absolutely explosive chemistry! There are so many layers to the deceit and secrets in this read it has your head spinning, the steps being taken to win are utterly savage, and with Rowan and Holden blurring lines with every look, touch, and taste, it’s a completely addictive read that dangles an explosion waiting to happen, drops the bomb, and bounces, leaving you begging for more and you can’t get enough of it.
Loved it from start to finish! Holden is that guy that just oozes power and looks like he knows exactly how to ravage you in a boardroom and I love it and Rowan is that obedient wild card that plays the game better than people think which I love even more. And the plot is spectacular! Every player in the game is hiding something, for every secret that gets revealed there are two more taking its place, it feels forbidden, sexy, and fun, and I’m totally addicted and impatiently waiting for the next book.

Mad. Not at how it ended, but that it did!

This book gave me everything: a sexy female lead, a hot male lead with ulterior motives, palpable tension, and plenty of spice. But as I watched the completion percentage climb, I found myself asking, "How is this plot going to wrap up with so little time left?" Spoiler: it doesn't. You know that feeling when you're about to sneeze, and someone says "bless you" too soon, and suddenly you can't sneeze? That's exactly what happened here. The story builds and builds, only to leave you hanging, craving more.

So yes, this is an odd way to recommend a book, but it is what it is. Read it! Just brace yourself—don't throw your phone, book, or Kindle across the room when you reach the end. You'll be left wanting more!

Rowan and Holden 😍😵

“He wants revenge…he wasn’t ready for her.”

I have never disliked a man so much in a book then turn around and cannot get enough of him!! This book has you guessing Holden’s next move. Rowan is an independent women who is out to make a name for herself despite everyone telling her what she “should want/do with her life.”

I really liked this book! I highly recommend it!!! This was my first book I read by K. Bromberg and I was not disappointed.. Okay, a little disappointed but only because it ends on a cliffhanger!! 😫😫😫 I can’t wait to see where things go next with Holden and Rowan.

💎“Pressure will either turn you into dust or a diamond.”

⚡️“You deserve someone who makes you feel like you've been struck by lightning.”

I’ve learned over the years that there are some authors whose books I just love, they easily attain 5 stars and K. Bromberg is one of those. I truly fell for her work with her S.I.N. Series and just have learned she writes office and F1 romance so well. Twisted Knight, is an office romance, and it’s full of betrayals, scheming, dark pasts, and also love and joy.

Rowan has always been overlooked by her family until Holden appears to buy her family’s company and finally starts to let her show her worth. But unlike Rowan, Holden wants to destroy the company, and is willing to hurt anyone to succeed, due to a personal history between him and Rowen’s brother Rhett.

This is a slow burn, and the wait is killer, but it’s so worth it when Rowan and Holden finally get together, adding in the spice, makes the timeline and the pacing speed up as you try to figure out if it’ll all work out. I was unaware this was a cliffhanger and a connected series, so now I’m desperate for the next book because I loved this one from the first chapter!

I am really enjoying Holden and Rowen’s story.  This is book one in the Tangled Hearts series.  I love a good enemies to lovers and as usual K Bromberg is bringing her A game!!  I cannot wait until the next book as this does end in a cliffhanger….💙💜

Holden & Rowan
Billionaire Romance
Enemies to lovers
Secret relationship
Revenge plot

Holden is the new majority owner for the company Rowans family used to control, and Rowan didn't know anything about the sale! So it's fair to say these two don't get off to the best start.... but the instant connection we see between them is great!!

We get a few chapters from 15 years ago from Holdens POV, which gives us snippets of why he's doing what he's doing.

I love this book and I'm so excited to see what happens next!

I keep getting near the end of the book thinking, how is this going to end in another few chapters, because I don't pay attention if they're standalones 🤣🤣🤣. What a cliffhanger!!! I love it!!!

Tangled Hearts #1

Holden Knight is 32 and a self made multi millionaire. This story flashes back fifteen years about being poor and living on the wrong side of town. He's back in town to buy a family run company TinSpirts and get revenge on the ones that hurt his family. No one knows who he is and that he's from around there.

Rowan Rothschild is the face of TinSpirts and VP of marketing. This company is one her great-great grandfather started and she hopes to run it one day. The only reason she isn't running the company is because she's a woman. Her family thinks she should just marry Chad and be the society wife and give up her job. Her brother Rhett is at the helm, running the business into the ground and needs money so decides to sell the business without her knowledge, enter Holden.

Rowan and Holden butt heads and he wants to take her down but doesn't realize she's not who he thinks she is. She knows she can do a better job than her brother and just has to play the game one her grandmother set for her.

There's an attraction between Rowan and Holden but he has to stay focused to get what he wants as does she.

5 stars
This is a cliffhanger that you don't know till you get to the end! I can't wait till the next book. You will get hooked!

Holden is a self-made billionaire who has a goal to avenge a wrong done to his family. He is going to take down the elites and get his revenge. What he didn't account for was Rowan, who is not like her family, and she is a distraction. One he can't get enough of, and she decides to take a leap of faith and work with him, going against her brother and family. Will it be the right move, or will it come crashing down? Everyone is keeping secrets from each other. Who can Rowan trust? Of course, this ends in a cliffhanger, and now the wait to see what happens next. Good read!

I voluntarily wrote this review from reading an advanced copy of this book.

Wow! What a read. I totally devoured this book. Rowan and Holden captured my heart from the very first page.

Rowan has lived in the shadow of her siblings. Always one to want more for herself, she’s fought for what she has. She doesn’t know that the mysterious, handsome stranger is about to turn her world upside down, in more ways than she can imagine.

Holden Knight is a self made billionaire. He is determined to get the revenge for a tragedy that happened when he was younger. What he doesn’t account for, is what Rowan brings out in him.

5 outstanding stars! I need book 2!!!! K Bromberg crushes this book. Bromberg’s writing style is unmatched. Seriously, I can’t wait for book 2!!! This is a must read!

My rating would probably be higher if I hadn’t found out on the last page that this book isn’t a standalone and I have to wait for the second part to see what happens between Holden and Rowan. Neither Goodreads nor Valentine PR, where I signed up for the ARC, mentioned this, so I don’t think it’s unfair for it to affect my rating, as I was expecting something totally different.

As for the book itself, I had mixed feelings. It didn’t grab my attention at first, and it even threw me into a reading slump for a few days. I felt terrible that I couldn’t make myself pick it up again. Once I forced myself, knowing I had a deadline, it hooked me so much that I read the remaining 80% in 24 hours.

I really enjoyed the writing style, which only makes me more eager to start the “Full Throttle” series. The emotional depth was great, and the flashback chapters were perfect, making me truly empathize with Holden and everything he had gone through.

However, what likely put me off at the beginning was Holden’s darkness — if I can call it that, the darker tone of the book. I’m still figuring out my limit when it comes to these kinds of romance stories. At first, I thought it would be too much, but now, after finishing the book, I can say it wasn’t; it was fine.

The conservatism and sexism of the setting drove me crazy at times, even to the point of frustration. I liked that Rowan fought for her place despite it all, but I didn’t like how she at the same time allowed her brother and mother to walk all over her.

The spicy scenes were written beautifully and intensified the chemistry between Rowan and Holden. But the ending killed my enjoyment. I expected resolution and a happy ending, but instead, Rowan changes her behavior over something that I’m 90% sure will have a more-than-logical explanation in the next book, and it’ll all end up being a result of miscommunication, which I hate.

Despite my love/hate relationship with this book, I can’t wait for the second part.

I was so excited when I heard we were getting a new series from Ms Bromberg and all I’m going to said is, Holden Knight and Rowan Rothschild’s journey was everything I expected and so much more. But this journey ends a cliffhanger so be prepared. Holden and Rowan are complete opposites, they come from opposite sides of the track and he wants and needs revenge from the Rothschild family ……… I was captivated from the first page to the last line as I became lost in a world of drama, revenge and passion. Twisted Knight is a great start to the new series, it’s well, written with wonderful characters and if this book is anything to go by Ms Bromberg will certainly have another hit series on her hands. Looking forward to what’s to come ……

I like to thank Valentine PR & Net Galley for the arc.

Twisted Knight is book one in the Tangled Hearts series. Holden Knight comes back to town to buy a family business. A family who destroyed his life 15 years ago. Rowan Rothschild (the daughter of said family) is a smart, independent, strong woman who wants the family business.
The book lays out the ground work of revenge, battle of wills and the beginning a relationship. Bromberg’s writing is wonderfully written. The flashbacks of Holden’s past was woven perfectly with the present. The relationship between Holden & Rowan was a perfect enemies to lovers. While they were plotting against each other, they give in to the sexual tension and have a no strings relationship. Then the lines start to blur and Bromberg keeps you guessing on what will happen next. Of course Bromberg gives us a cliffhanger that had me screaming WTH!! I’m so excited for book two to see where Bromberg will be taking Holden & Rowan.
If you are looking for a revenge, enemies to lovers, workplace romance, this one you have to check out.

Wow! This is my first book by K. Bromberg and I loved it! Rowan is not your typical country club woman. She is bounded, determined to break the mold and do her own thing which includes running her families company. Holden has a rags to riches story and it’s fantastic. However, he also has some dark secrets and some revenge to seek out. I love everything about this book and cannot wait for the second one to come out because it definitely ends on a cliffhanger. Counting the minutes to the second book comes out.

“ You deserve someone who makes you feel like you’ve been struck by lightning.”

i’m going to throw my kindle at the wall. this is not a series of interconnected standalones like i was expecting it to be. so that ending?? it’s got me screaming.

the only problems i like are rich people problems and that’s kind of what this book is. it’s not exactly rich people problems from <i>dynasty</i> but rich people problems nonetheless. tinspirits is sinking because of rhett rothschild’s inability to run a business and manage money so holden knight swoops in to save the day…right? unless…he’s got some ulterior motive 👀

holden has a tragic backstory and i liked learning why he was so hellbent on revenge from his pov as a child. rowan has never wanted to fit in to the westmore expectations of women so she constantly tries to break out of that mold and has only recently challenged her male peers. despite the cliffhanger, i’m excited to see how they continue to work together in order to bring tinspirits back.

holden and rowan match each other in the best ways possible. they’re angsty and i love it.

Contemporary Romance

Westmore, North Carolina – Present Day

Rowan Rothschild works for her family’s corporation but might as well be invisible. Her brother, Rhett, is the CEO and runs everything. Rowan is part of marketing and is considered the face of the company’s brand of liquor drinks. But she has a secret desire to gain control of the company, and the money her late grandmother left in trust for her might help. One day she is walking by the boardroom when she learns that a secret meeting is going on. She barges in to discover that Rhett is negotiating with a stranger, Holden Knight, to take a majority interest in the company. Her company. Of course, Rowan is angry. But she has to admit that Holden is one fine sexy man.

Holden Knight has secrets. While I won’t get into all the secrets here, let’s just say he is back in Westmore and buying up the Rothschild’s company as revenge. He plans to put the screws into Rhett and his friend Chad Williams, who also works at the company and is rumored to be headed to the altar with Rowan. Speaking of Rowan, Holden finds himself attracted to her. It doesn’t help that she’s smart, beautiful, and isn’t afraid to speak her mind when it comes to what’s going on around the company. But he must not allow himself to be distracted because he is on a mission—and the company may be collateral damage. Though, Holden might allow himself to play a few sexy cat-and-mouse games with Rowan.

TWISTED KNIGHT is a twisted tale of revenge and seduction. Holden grew up in the seedy part of town, but he now has a different last name, so no one has recognized him as the impoverished kid who grew up there. He despises the Rothschilds, though early in this tale he learns that Rowan wasn’t around in her teen years as she was away in a private school. She is not like Rhett, who is a spoiled, unscrupulous brat who shouldn’t be running the company. Rhett doesn’t realize that Holden is on to his schemes and embezzling. Rowan doesn’t know what is going on, but she keeps her own secrets. Namely, she wants to get the money to take over the company. One caveat to getting the money out of the trust is that she can get it early by marrying. Chad has been her eager groom-to-be all these years. Will she take the bait so she can get her hooks into the trust fund?

As for Rowan and Holden, their cat-and-mouse game starts as a chase at first, but soon they are tempting each other. The desire and passion between them are hot and they can’t get enough of each other. Yet, as much as they want each other, they fear the uncontrollable feelings that course through them. It can’t be more than lust because neither are looking for a commitment. Holden is on a mission, and if Rowan finds out, she might hate him. Will he do something to betray her?

At this point, I have to say that TWISTED KNIGHT ends on a cliffhanger and I didn’t realize this until I reached the end. Apparently, this is a serial series, and I am not sure when the next book will come out. So, to say this tale ends on a happy note…well. You just have to figure out if there is a chance for Holden and Rowan to find happiness together.

This book was so good but warning this is not a standalone. Lol the cliffhanger almost cost me a tablet. As always I love K’s writing and she had me hooked so now I need more. Rowan is smart and tough for all she’s been through & Holden well he’s disruptive in her world. The tension & banter is 🔥. I can’t wait for book 2.
