He thinks he’s broken me. That I’m finally under his complete control. But I’m biding my time, gathering intel, making plans, and waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. So, when an unexpected savior appears—offering me a way out—I grasp it with both hands.

But the man I love refuses to let me go, and he’s hell-bent on protecting me at all costs.

Except he’s far too late.

Kaiden’s betrayal fuels the anger flowing through my veins, and now our roles are reversed—I’m the hunter, and he’s my prey. I enjoy torturing him, lying to him, and letting him believe in false truths that were never our reality.

Until the stakes are raised, and I’m forced into playing their game again. Only this time, it’s not just my life hanging in the balance.

I thought he’d done his worst. That he didn’t have the power to hurt me anymore.

But I was wrong.

His depravity knows no bounds, and now, he’s taken everything from me.

This time, it means war, and I’m taking no prisoners.


Twisted Betrayal (Rydeville Elite, #2) Reviews


  • Paula

    This author wants "consideration" from readers to not spoil the story and is blatantly lying, contradicting and used her fan base to attack readers who gave negative reviews! If she wants "consideration", I suggest she doesn't write crap like this! And to blatantly lie & chastise readers who don't like the book? That shows immaturity & unprofessional behavior and I refuse to support any author who acts this way - never mind write crazy shit bordering on psychotic and publishing it as "romance"!

    Who is lying to whom now?

  • ABookLover73

    FIVE stars for Abby and Kai ❤❤❤!!!

    🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    No, this book deserves an infinite number of stars ♾!

    I usually don't write long reviews because when you love some book you don't need thousands of words to show how much you enjoyed reading the book and only one word is enough to show that.

    But, there is always an exception...

    And Siobhan Davis's books are one of them ❤!!!

    I fell in love with Siobhan's writing when I first started reading "Cruel Intentions".

    That book stole my heart and couldn't wait to read the next book in series and that was this one...

    "Twisted Betrayal".

    Before you start reading the "Rydeville High Elite" series you must know that once you fall down under her writing's spell, you won't doing anything beside you'll read her books.

    And why is that?!

    The first things are her characters, they'll go under your skin and every time when they are happy or sad you'll feel it as it is your own emotion.

    The second things are cliffhangers.

    I know that I shouldn't write about cliffhangers in her books but they are epic and she is...

    THE QUEEN for writing an amazing cliffhanger.

    This sounds crazy because who loves cliffhangers at the end of the book?!

    The answer is...

    Me!

    The reason is one and only.

    The book with a good cliffhanger will make to thinking about it the whole day, month or year before you read the next book in series of that what will happen to the characters or will they have their happily ever after?!

    And that's happened to me two months ago.

    I couldn't wait to find out what will happen to my two favorite characters, Abby and Kai 😍❤🔥!

    And now when I found out, I want more...

    I need more.

    I must say there was one part in the book which broke my heart in thousand pieces and I was almost started crying (I won't say which part it is, but you'll know when you read it).

    Abby is still one of my favorite female characters and really love that she doesn't give people to break her easy.

    Kai, from the other side, showed in this book some sides I didn't believe that he had and they melted my heart.

    If you didn't start to read this perfect series, now is time to do it because if you don't you will miss these amazing books and that will be a shame.

    I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book.

    4.5 Twisted stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Twisted-Betrayal

    In a twisted world where men are part of secret elites that control everything with violence, sex and power... In a world where women are just play tools and beautiful decorations... there is only one girl who will not give up or be afraid of anyone. 🔥💪👑

    📚 "we’re in a fight-or-die world, and I’ll always fight." 📚

    From the first book, Abigail (Abby) didn't let anyone disrespect her. Not to her family, not to her ex and certainly not the new elite bullies who came to her school... so just imagine what happens when you add hormones to her "bad-ass" behavior! 😱
    You go girl!!! 🎉

    📚 "Men are so fucking pathetic.
    It’s ironic that bastard thinks women are weak because we’re ruled by our emotions, when men are definitely the weaker of the two sexes, because they’re completely ruled by their dicks." 📚

    OMG, it is so hard to write this review without giving away spoilers! So I'll just say that this story continues from where the first book ends. 💥
    After that crazy ending, I couldn't wait to dive in, and I have to admit that the beginning was a bit slow- and I was worried the whole book will be like this. 😬
    Until...
    AHHHHHH!!! 😱😱😱

    If I thought everyone was crazy sick before, now I realize it's just the tip of the iceberg!

    Listen guys, Siobhan Davis has a twisted mind!!! I'm kinda scared of her right now... 😂🙈
    Lies, secrets, betrayals... and fucking hot chemistry that almost made my ovary explode! 🔥🔥🔥

    📚 “Just so you know, I’m not giving up,” he whispers. “You can push me away. Bait me. Lash out at me . Do your worst. And I’ll take it. Because I deserve it. But I’m going nowhere, Abby." 📚

    Abby and Kaiden continue to fight- against their enemies and each other. The difference is, unlike before where there were so many people to be warned from, this book has one clear enemy, one that will make everyone unite against. 💣💥

    📚 “You’re not my enemy, babe, and I’m not yours. We have enough of them without turning on one another.” 📚

    Even though this book was less surprising than the first one and felt a bit too "mature" for 17-years-old characters, you should prepare yourself for a huge blast... because the third (and last) book is going to be EPIC!!!!!! 💃💃💃💃💃

    Just do me a favor, do NOT miss the bonus chapter at the end of the book... Trust me! 😋

    📚 "He has always underestimated the women around him.
    It’s time to show him he’s underestimated me for the last time." 📚

    PS, I would love if you could light a candle at night in your window and give a prayer to the book gods for me, so the book on Jackson will come out faster. Thanks! 🙏😂

    WHAT IN THE EVER LOVING FUCK JUST HAPPENED?!

    This book!
    Gah!
    I don’t know how to write this review without giving away spoilers.
    I have never been so mad and disgusted at a character before I’m all of my life. I need to hand out some throat punches 🤬

    Just as I thought things were going to get better for Kaiden and Abby, Siobhan Davis just blew up their world and mine!
    I have never been so angry, infuriated, and damn right stabby at a book like this before.

    I will say though, the character development in this book was epic!
    I loved Kaiden and Abby and the moments they had together. He has stolen my heart so badly and I don’t even care.

    If you think Siobhan Davis messes you up with book 1... then you have got no idea with Twisted betrayal. I just inhaled this book in one sitting. So strap in, make sure you don’t need to adult and get ready to shout at the top of your lungs because this book... will wreck you!!

  • Samantha Schwerin

    I cannot do this anymore. I don't understand why this series needed a second book - this book is just so unnecessary...the plot should have been wrapped up in the first one. Abby keeps getting captured by the various male characters and she kicks and spits and tries to run away but ultimately she is just being dragged around town by them. She never gets told anything so the reader, in turn, is told nothing and it's all just so exasperating.

    1. The plot is absolutely ridiculous. It goes in circles and none of it is believable. I realize that reading does require a reader to suspend disbelief at times...but this goes above and beyond- anything that I find somewhat believable gets trampled over by a million other little things that I just can't get behind. Besides that, this story is perhaps the most misogynistic piece of work I have read in quite some time and it caused me a lot of anxiety. The book has TWO female characters, while the others mentioned are dead. The women are all treated as objects, only put on the earth to serve their husbands as sex slaves. BY THE WAY-the majority of these characters are high schoolers. So like 17/18. It is LAUGHABLE the way these children act.


    2. Literally every single character in this book series sucks in one way or another. Lets recap a little shall we?
    - I'll start with the least problematic characters: Abby and Xavier I was on board with Abby for the first book-she was obviously the only sane person in this book's universe. She was strong willed and determined to escape the hell that was her life. Then we enter the second book and all of that goes out the window and she becomes whiny, bratty, jealous, and always battling everyone just for the sake of being annoying...it's gets so beyond tiring. She gives the middle finger at least once a chapter and seduces most of the boys she comes across to get what she wants. I get that she needed to be errant because no one was telling her a damn thing and sexually abusing her but the way she goes about things just makes her come off as super immature and annoying. It would be nice if the only female character had a good head on her shoulders and was able to get away from her abusers (yes, they are all abusers in some way or anther) without the help of the males in this book...that's where I thought the first book was going, but NOPE-every male character just has to save her from every situation...even situations where she had a clear plan to escape herself but in comes the ~hero~ to save the day. Ugh. Xavier Was probably the only male character to not act like a huge perverted sex offender and seemed to genuinely want to help Abby and loved her.
    -Sawyer. I was originally going to lump him into the paragraph above, but then I remembered that he but a freaking HIDDEN CAMERA in her ROOM and then used the footage of her naked as blackmail. NOPE SIR.

    -Jackson. Like most books about high school elite, there are usually three top ~alphas~ and one of them is always the goofy, lighthearted one with daemons which he hides behind humor and some sort of substance. Enter Jackson. While not outright malicious like his friends, he is a womanizer and jerked off in front of his friends AND Abby while Abby was making out with Cam/Kai. He also continually make more comments of having a boner, wanting to jerk off again to Abby and touched her more than once that was against her will. NOPE SIR.

    -Cam/Kai. UGH. This controlling, domineering, misogynistic, abusing POS is supposed to be the HERO? He literally does nothing beyond the first chapter of the first book to earn himself ANY of the feelings that Abby supposedly had/has (even then it's not much, he helps her not commit suicide by having sex with her. How big of him.). I could never really tell how much she truly cared for him, if at all...it was mostly physical attraction, but then all of a sudden he ~loves~ her and goes all caveman on her-telling her that she is basically his property (I HATE when characters tell their love interests that they are ~theirs~ and no one else can LOOk at them. It's so cliche and obnoxious). On top of that, he sexually assaults her multiple times. Just because her body responded to your touch, douche face, does not mean she is yours to play with! And she isn't YOURS you absolute ASSHAT. She was literally trying to get away from her abusive father and you still pull that shit. NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE. ALL THE NOPES IN THE WORLD. There is so much about this dude I hate...and it's not even like he and Abby get along-they hate each other and are constantly doing petty shit to make the other pissed off like parading girls and guys around the other. It's just so toxic and immature. I can't get behind this relationship at all.

    -Drew. Abby's twin. Who let his father expose her to a room full of grown ass adult males (who also did nothing to stop it). Who did nothing as her gross ass fiance fingered her in front of said adult males to make sure she was a ~virgin~. Who did nothing as their father BEAT HER to a PULP. Who did nothing to protect her from her father at so, so many other instances. Who claims to care about her but mainly just sat next his father and watched him abuse her mentally and physically over the years. Hard pass sir.

    -Trent . Said ~fiance~ and super dick. That's putting it nicely. I am just so exhausted by the males in this book. Basically he is engaged to her because their fathers have a business deal out of it. He and Abby were to marry when she turned 18 (so ROMANTIC). He is just your typical douchebag who wants sex all the time but since Abby has to be a ~virgin~ when they marry per the marriage agreement between the fathers, he gets sex elsewhere while Abby is expected to be virtuous. And no surprise Trent's father (I forget his name) is ALSO a giant sleezbag who fondles her and leers at her and it's basically implied that he will also be able to have sex with her once his son marries her. YUCK. Many times during reading this book, I wanted to wash my eyes/brain out with bleach at these disgusting human beings. I can't. HARD HARD HARD PASS.

    -Abby's Father. Oh, the list I could write on this disgusting dirtbag...but he was the ~main villian~ so it really didn't surprise me all that much how he treated his daughter like a business transaction, killed all the women in the book and kidnapped his own daughter multiple times. What did shock and enrage me is that the last time he kidnaps her, he terminates her pregnancy while she is unconscious (At least that's what I think is implied...it hasn't been stated yet at the point where I am giving up) and then gave her a boob job (???!!). That was basically the point where I began to just physically recoil at everything that was happening. Eat shit, sir.


    There are so so many other issues with this book and I think I only continued so far because the writing was good? I don't even know. The misogyny is way too much for my taste.

  • Mareeva

    1 star

    I honestly don’t understand why all these heroines in high school or mafia romance become so annoying in the second book.

    I hate the way they keep referring to each other as men and women…..like no, you are literally in high school.

    Abigail is so fucking stuck up on Kai lying to her and yet SHE LIES TO HIM ALL THE DAMN TIME.
    description
    She keeps on making up stories to piss him off and make him jealous. In moments like these, you suddenly realise that this pregnant "woman" IS SEVENTEEN and it really shows by her dumbass, immature behaviour.

    God, I don’t know why I keep reading these high school romances. The first book was ridiculous in some ways but at least it was entertaining.

    Review to come!!

  • nikki

    Going by some of the other reviews, I think my rating is going to be fairly unpopular, but I feel I need to stay true to myself and be completely honest. What I would like to say is that I am totally invested in this series; I loved the first book and I adore Kaiden, Jackson and Sawyer, so no matter my thoughts, I will be continuing on because I have to find out how this all ends.
    Now it’s difficult for me to explain what my problems were without giving away the storyline and spoiling it for everyone else. I feel like the drama was just way too much and some of the things that Abby’s dad did, bordered on just plain ridiculous. Normally, I find it fairly easy to suspend reality and be open-minded, but I just couldn’t help thinking that Abby is still only 17 and these things were just way too over the top. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoyed the story and in all honesty, I don’t think that 3 stars is a bad rating at all (some of you might not agree with me) but certain parts just went too far.
    Once again we were left on another major cliffhanger, and I can’t wait to see how Siobhan Davis ties it all up together. I truly hope that Abby and Kai get their happy ever after - and that my love, Jackson is going to get a book of his own!! *keeps fingers crossed*

  • Amanda Tregaskis

    Loved the first book preordered the second

    And this. Sorry, the main male character lied to her for ages, she doesn't reveal the truth for a week and he is angry with her.


    Really, I am not finding anything really amazing about him. He is as twisted as the rest.

    Spoiler alert...











    Not only is some of this totally implausible, like - nope the dungeon with all those people, sharing wives and daughters, but the hysterectomy and she wakes up without knowing and unable to tell - yes they can do key hole surgery but you don't just feel like normal 5 weeks later. No matter how twisted, breeding heirs would be important to these men, the idea of harvesting eggs and using a surrogate would be too risky as the process doesn't guarantee success.

    More than a bully book, this is just sick twisted perverts all round.

    ***AVAILABLE NOW***

    4.5 OMG CROWNS

    Just when I think the Elite can't get any worse, any more vile...

    The characterization and development of the all of the characters was fantastic. In book two, readers get to see more of what motivates these people as more secrets from the past are exposed. I really loved seeing a new side to Kai and seeing the Abby take control was of epic proportions.

    Kai and Abby together was just everything in this book. EVERY. SINGLE. THING. I loved all their moments, from the fighting to the more romantic. Every page with them on it was my favorite.

    As with the last book, there are moments where you think you know what is going to happen, but you don't. This is land of the corrupt and evil, and nothing is safe or free from the reach. That unsure nature of the characters leaves readers on the edge of their sits, and like book one, book two leaves readers with an ending so epic that readers are left reeling. There were moments where I felt like we had some information dumping, not because the author wasn't showing us, but because the plot is so complex and there are so many players and pieces moving that there is so much to disseminate. These moments are few and far between, but they are there.

    What I do know is that I am DYING to see how this is all going to play out in book three. I know what I want to hope, what I need to happen, but I have no clue how this author is going to get us to the HEA. I'll be emotionally preparing until October.

    ARC received in exchange for an honest review.

  • Helen

    Usually, I try not to be excessively negative in my reviews. Today I'm going to have to break that rule.

    I found this book was both gratuitous and wildly unrealistic. So many things happen that are beyond belief, and the result is three hundred pages of torture porn featuring characters whose personalities are wildly different from the first book (Abby, girl, what HAPPENED?)


    This relationship is abusive. I don't understand the appeal of a male love interest who repeatedly threatens to beat, strangle or mutilate the main character, throws tantrums every time she so much as glances at another man, physically restrains her and/or slaps her every time she does something he doesn't like, and claims he owns her.

    "I need to beat someone to a bloody pulp, or I'll take it out on her." A direct quote from our love interest. Because that's super romantic and not at all terrifying.

    Despite this, the characterisation is wildly inconsistent (Kai goes from aforementioned domestic abuser to a gentle giant who treats Abby with respect and care, as if I'm going to forget that he was threatening to beat her several chapters back - then he goes back to being a bullying douche. Meanwhile, Abby loses all semblance of personality in favour of drooling over how badly she wants to sleep with him.)

    The book also acts as a checklist for basically every horrifying thing that could possibly happen in every dark romance ever, and yet still somehow manages to drag - it's basically several hundred pages of people explaining things to one another, with a sprinkling of actual on-page rape and molestation. There's no real plot, other than Abby being passed around different groups of men like a human pass-the-parcel and having hate-sex with Kaiden. The parts that COULD pass for a plot are honestly so ridiculous that I'm astonished my eyes didn't roll back into my head.



    I'm done. I'll be honest, while I didn't love the first book I thought it was okay, just not my cup of tea. This second book was just insulting, and it has completely eradicated any of the positive feelings I had about the first instalment. I don't intend to finish this series, and to be honest I think I'm done with bully romances. I've yet to read one that doesn't kind of suck.

    Trigger warnings, though no doubt I've missed some because this book is literally just a trauma dump:

  • Nadine


    I’m going to keep this short because there isn’t really much to say other than the obvious based on my one star rating.

    The Rydeville High Elite series is a bully romance. I did not know I wasn’t a fan of these types of romances until after I finished the first novel in the series, Cruel Intentions. I rated that novel three stars with the intention of not continuing the series. I was sent the second book for review, so here I am.

    Twisted Betrayal is so much more than a bully romance. It’s sick, twisted, and unhealthy. There are so many trigger warnings that I won’t even name them. If something is a trigger, it’s most likely in this novel.

    I tried. I really tired with the sequel, but it’s so disturbingly unhealthy. I know not all relationships are perfectly healthy and everyone involved are using the appropriate coping methods, but Twisted Betrayal blows past anything I could consider entertaining. When a character muses on being fucked until she bleeds in a positive light loses me completely.

    It’s not for me, but maybe it’s for you.

    ***I voluntarily reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book.

    This was crazy. Straight up crazy... (not to mention extremely HOT 🥵) ... but I loved it💞

  • Bookgasms Book Blog

    OMGGGGG. WHAT DID I JUST READ?! Siobhan Davis just left me in a huge ocean of WTF and I am seriously drowning in my need for book three. AHHHH! I am gasping for breath after that ending!! But what a story! I was kept on the edge of my seat and totally transfixed by every single word!! This story was another five star winner!! What a magnificent sequel! Perfection!

    Without giving away any spoilers, this story picks up right where book one left off where Abby has been kidnapped and is in trouble. But like in Davis' amazing fashion, the secrets and lies come out from out of nowhere and then you are left frantically tapping away at the next page button in complete shock as the addiction to finish doesn't let up. OMG. Just when you thought you knew, you seriously had ZERO clues as to what is going to happen next!!

    I know this review was obnoxiously vague but from my pure emotions alone, you need to read it! I loved it so much and seriously can not wait until book three! Bravo! 5 stars! ~Ratula 

  • TheSassyNerdBlog

    Where do I even start? It's safe to say that Siobhan is trying to ruin me. If you thought book one hit you where it hurt, book two is about to knock you on your ass... This story starts out crazy and it's just gotten crazier. After the epic cliffhanger in book one...I have been going crazy trying to piece together what was going to happen in book two and I was so far off the mark...

    In this book, Abby has been kidnapped and held prisoner, she has lost everything and hasn't felt so alone before in her life. She doesn't know who she can trust, and quite frankly, she can't trust anyone, but she has to, well at least try to, even though every fiber in her body is telling her otherwise. What she thought of her dad and who he really is, is not even close to the evil that he truly is. He is hell-bent on completely ruining her, and he's making it hard to not let him win but Abby is strong, she fights this and she isn't alone anymore. She isn't alone in this. I found my emotions so strung out with this book, my head spinning and my heart pounding. Ms. Davis sure as hell knows how to write a plot that will have you tugging at your hair, and that will have you wanting to punch the shit out of someone or something. The constant unknown.... That constant ball of anxiety in my stomach only grew as we got deeper into this plot, and I wish I could say that it eased, but it didn't. I was strung the hell out. I'll say this now, this book/series isn't for everyone, but for me? it was everything! I couldn't get enough. I love angst, I love darkness, I love the feeling of the unknown, and I love a good mind fuck and this book delivered it all. From start to finish, I was completely consumed. I needed to know more about Abby, and what was happening, and Kaiden and the rest of the gang. I needed answers and in the most part I got a lot of them, but in saying that, the author throws even more plot twists that I did not see coming in book two, and just when you thought things couldn't get any crazier, I was proven wrong and now I am here, completely speechless and in awe of this authors way of telling a story. I am obsessed. My heart broke time and time again, and I'll admit, I had tears in my eyes just thinking of everything that was happening and all that was experienced...It is not for the faint of the heart, that is for sure.

    I need more... I want more. I wish I could sit here and tell you everything that just went down, but what would be the fun in that? I think going in with blind is the best approach because your head is about to spin.

    5 Twisted Stars!

  • Siobhan

    Twisted Betrayal is the second book in the Rydeville High Elite book, continuing the story after the cliff-hanger of Cruel Intentions. It’s another Siobhan Davis book I completed in a single sitting, although it’s not one that I will label a favourite.

    In truth, I fear I’m in the minority with this series. Although I’m finding it addictive, I’m not loving it in the way I usually love books from Siobhan Davis. To me, the series is trying too hard to be shocking. Siobhan Davis does angst wonderfully, and always throws in twists and turns, but with this one we’re sacrificing such things to have drama that feels forced. In some ways, it feels as though these books are working through a checklist of things that are popular in the genre at the moment, working predominantly to tick all the boxes. Many will love the series because it has so much of what is popular right now, but it just doesn’t feel like the usual Siobhan Davis to me.

    I think the main reason for my somewhat cynical view is because I cannot connect with any of the characters. We’re told about the romance between the leading characters, but I do not feel it. Everyone is going on about the chemistry, but I’ve yet to see signs of it. Moreover, it felt like we had some serious personality transplants in this book. I understand how events can change people, but it felt like we were reading different characters with this one. It just threw me somewhat.

    Despite this, as I’ve said, I was addicted. At first, I wasn’t sucked into it. Then, once the story got moving, I powered through it. There were some aspects that felt forced and unnecessary, specific scenes that I wasn’t crazy about, but as a whole I enjoyed where the story was going. There were plenty of new elements introduced, giving us answers to prior questions whilst giving us new things to think about. It’s very much a book that leaves you desperate for answers, for resolution, so you can finally know who can and cannot be trusted.

    Although not my favourite Siobhan Davis read, Twisted Betrayal has me curious to see how the next Rydeville High Elite book plays out. I’m curious to see how everything comes together and am crossing my fingers Siobhan Davis will have me loving the final book in the way I usually love her books.

  • Jennie 8675309

    Ridonk. So, at 17, she's kidnapped, has a forced abortion (twins), hysterectomy, boob job (all during one black out period, at the hands of her own father), kisses ALL the boys, everyone is in love with her, two forced engagements, perved on by dad's friends, discovers dad's sex dungeon, rides a bad ass street bike (not a stretch, but really?) Not to mention over 200 FBombs and the over use of saying “one another” instead of adding a few “each other” I need to add a shelf called "wtf did I just read".

  • Amanda Adams

    What in the hell did I just read?? Holy cow so much drama and I feel like my mind is fu*ked. There is no way to review this without some kind of spoilers. So I’m just going to say go read this book. BUT first read book one. Yes they are both cliffhangers which is do NOT like but this book it was worth it. I’ve got just a little over two months for the finale and I can’t be more excited. I love how strong of a female Abby is. And Kaiden well he’s just damn hot. What’s not to like. Thanks to Siobhan for letting me read this early. Can’t wait to see what you’ve got up your sleeve come October.

  • Tasha Mahoney

    Ok, I have to preface this by saying that I enjoy books that leave a strong impression and Twisted Betrayal has left a very strong impression.

    I am going to say that this series definitely contains themes that mean it needs a trigger warning.

    This is one gritty story and while there is the romance, it almost feels secondary to the dark suspense that is running through the series. The romance feels very Capulets and Montagues but our young lovers are ensconced in a more modern hell with more layers than those star crossed lovers were.

    I absolutely loathe so many of the characters, and none are without darkness but given the horrifying things that happen to and surround the younger characters it is not surprising.

    I am wary of revealing spoilers so I am not going to go into any more detail. I could not stop listening to this story and despite it being a relatively long audiobook, I still finished it in less than a day.
    The narration is outstanding and the narrators can really voice act. They bring this story to life and their performance is really impressive.

    ⭐️ 5 "Wild Ride" Stars ⭐️
    OMG! What did I just read? After Cruel Intentions I needed answers to my interrogation, but nothing could have prepared me for the scandalous revelations of Twisted Betrayal! It’s one after another and I was riveted to my kindle all read long waiting for the next bombshell! Siobhan Davis totally upped the thrill with this second novel in the Rydeville High Elite Trilogy bursting with intrigue, angst, emotion and pure lust! I just couldn’t put the book down and I read it in one go!

    "No ever kissed me the way Kai kisses me. His mouth can worship and punish me at the same time, and he ignites an inferno in my body with every sweep of his hot lips."

    After the wicked events of book one, Abby and Kai are back to a sweet rivalry. The betrayal on both parts hurt them deep there’s a lot of hot and cold moments that had me gasping for air! I couldn’t love this couple more! They’re the perfect match and it’s clear that under all this revisited animosity, deeper feelings run between them! Their exchanges are filled with longing, possessiveness and jealousy, but also despair and true love! There’s nothing they wouldn’t do for each other!

    Kai is still alpha personified. He’s so protective of Abby and shows jealous tendencies and possessiveness. As powerful, unapologetic and stubborn as he is, he also exposes a caring side that had me swooning so hard for him. Abby is also very strong when faced with trials throughout all the scheming. Unleashed secrets are piling up only creating a more resolute girl.

    It’s disclosed that the Elite world is more depraved than what we thought with absolutely horrific surprises. Most of these mysteries I didn’t see coming and the past is more perverted than I thought with the fathers being cunning a-hole.

    You're the only one one who owns my heart. Forever."

    Twisted Betrayal gave me a wild rush! This story left me dazed and my heart in chaos from the onslaught of conflicting feelings! The scorching hot moments, the emotional ones and all the gruesome discoveries made this read utterly enthralling! Siobhan Davis achieved to make me fall even more in love with her protagonists and hooked on this secretive and dark world! Now, I need more after the astonishing cliffhanger!

    Siobhan Davis - “To Be Continued.”
    Me- -Puts kindle down and thinks- what the actual F*** was that!!!!!

    Not kidding. This book is intense, heart breaking, maddening, thrilling, and will have you in a state of disbelief.

    Abby goes through so much betrayal from the ones that are supposed to protect her. She seeks to forgive those she thinks she can trust again and revenge on those that have done permanent damage.
    I loved how fierce and strong Abby is. And although she doesn’t need Kai she is better with him.

    This story has many layers and characters and Siobhan does a fantastic job of making all the pieces fit.

    Buckle up. It’s a crazy ride!

    Must read Book one first.

    Holy crap I need more stars with this review. OH MY GOD. I have no words. Book 1 hit him with the WTF, WTH and all that jazz but this book takes it to an entirely different level. It is twisted and hot and hits you with all the dam feels. Kai and Abby, just, whoa. And there are quite a few people it makes me want to throat punch.

    I knew the cliff on the end of this book would be insane with how book 1 ended but holy crap it's epic. You need this book and you need it now.

    This was beyond ridiculous and disgusting!

    After finishing Cruel Intentions, I waited with bated breath for Twisted Betrayal. Not only did Siobhan give me what I wanted, she delivered even more on this story line.

    I truly have no idea what to say or where to start this review. Siobhan is an amazing story-teller. She has this niche to deliver a well-rounded and thought-out story with so many twists and turns that keeps you on the edge the whole time. Her stories have a lot going on in them but that is what makes them so easy to get sucked into and never want to leave.

    I had thought that I come to know everything that Siobhan could throw our way, but she has once again left me in a state of shock. But I should know better by now - Siobhan will always push her readers and keep them on their toes. And let me clarify that by saying Siobhan will deliver a shock not for the sheer value of it but because it fits the characters and what would be appropriate to fit that scene. You know something is to come and you think you know what bomb will be dropped, but that is where Siobhan executes the twists so well.

    Ok - So I just realized I have not said a word about this book. LOL Sorry - I am just in awe of her writing and how well developed her stories and characters are.

    This book does pick up right after Cruel Intentions. Abby has been drugged and she has no idea where she is and who took her. And well, in true Siobhan form, shit takes off from there and we are taken on an exhilarating journey riddled with discoveries to questions we had from book one but more questions are added in.

    Abby, Kai, Drew and the rest of the cast (yes, cast because this truly feels like it could be a movie or a kick-ass TV series) are dead set on figuring out what their fathers are all about and what they each have planned. And just when they think they have an understanding, things only get more deeper and more depraved.

    This book is addictive. That is all I can say. It is not for the faint of heart because some of the scenes are quite graphic but holy hell, are they jaw-dropping. The suspense is evident and keeps you right in the thick of everything. I have no idea what Siobhan will throw our way anymore with this story.

    And that cliffhanger - OMG!!! I have chills, legit goosebumps all over my body. I also have this "HELL YES" feeling because I can only imagine what Siobhan is gong to bring next. I am so excited for Sweet Retribution.
