Twisted is a dark contemporary slow-burn romance told in alternating first-person voices. Yasmin Karam, daughter of a diamond empire, returns home to a father dying of cancer—only to learn he wants her married so his legacy stays “protected.” The problem: Yasmin is secretly in love with Aidan, a staff member she’s been hiding for years.
Julian Faraci, the family’s ruthless COO, sees Yasmin’s forced marriage as a gateway to control. He manipulates, threatens, and blackmails his way into her life, pushing her into a marriage she never wanted—while desire, fear, and power games blur the line between coercion and obsession. As a legendary relic hunt in Egypt escalates into betrayal and violence, Yasmin must decide who to trust and what kind of woman she will become to survive—and choose her own version of love.
