About this listen

He was never supposed to see her. She was never supposed to survive.

Emily’s life has always existed in the shadow of the dead. Working at her family’s funeral home, she thought she knew secrets. But nothing prepares her for the night she discovers what really happens after midnight—or the man who’s been watching her from the dark.

Ruarc is a killer with a code. Ruthless, disciplined, and loyal only to his criminal family. But the moment he sees Emily, something shifts. She’s meant to be leverage—an unwilling pawn in a dangerous game of betrayal and revenge. Instead, she becomes his obsession.

What begins as coercion spirals into a brutal, intimate entanglement neither of them expected. He wants control. She wants answers. And when the line between predator and protector blurs, Emily must decide how far she’ll go to survive… and what she's willing to feel for the man who’s claimed her.

Twisted Devotion is a dark, gripping romance full of morally gray characters, intense chemistry, and unrelenting tension. Perfect for listeners who like their love stories with bite, danger, and emotional damage.

Content Warning: This book contains scenes of kidnapping, violence, psychological manipulation, and non-traditional power dynamics. Recommended for mature listeners only.

We meet Ruarc and Emily, but what happens between these two will have you questioning captor and captive. Enemies to lovers and will take you down some paths that should not be crossed. Or should they. Loved every minute of this book. The narrators really added to the story telling. You have Eliza Nyx, this is the first book I’ve heard narrated by her and she was fantastic, she gave Emily the voice she needed to stand up to those who wanted to hold her back. Then you have the strong, dark tone of Lucas Troy who brings Ruarc’s voice out and has you at times thinking where is he going and what is he going to do.

Twisted isn’t the word I would use for this book…

Just finished the audiobook and wow, this thing is wild. Emily’s working at a funeral home, minding her business, and suddenly this crime lord decides she’s his new obsession. Zero warning, zero chill. It’s dark, messy, addictive — and the narration makes it even better. The voices, the tension, all of it just pulls you right in. If you like chaotic, morally questionable romance, this one goes down fast.
