After a life changing event, she meets Reggie who changes her life forever. Finally having the family she longed for all her life, Piper will go to any lengths possible to keep them safe. Until she meets Ollie.

Ollie Parker craves being part of a family again after his is tragically stolen from him. When he meets Piper she offers him the world, but it comes at a price. Ollie discovers that some prices are harder to pay than others, and he must decide if Piper and his new family are worth the cost.

    I’m not going to lie, this definitely has a twisted plot to it... but you can’t stop reading! The ending is mind blowing, the storyline is wicked and the characters... wasn’t expecting that!!!!
    Good Job Emma Luna!

    This is a very different type of book. I believe that the main character was well written in her crazy. I did not quite believe her age when it came to her profession. It is near impossible to be a psychologist for a year at 26. I got the impression she had been one for at least two based on her Pets and moving history. In addition, it was not quite realistic for her to try to anonymously pick up a guy at a place she frequents. His friends would be able to place him and the bartenders would be able to place her. The storyline has a lot of holes.

    Where to begin as this book was so not what I was expecting, but behind the stunning cover of this novel is a story that is exceptionally creative, partially terrifying, and steamy. I read a lot and I love the dark and twisted but Piper is the twistiest of the twisted and deliciously dark. I had no idea what I was getting into with this quick read and to be perfectly honest, I truly was uncertain about it all in the beginning but my curiosity as to how all it would unfold kept me fully engaged. The world building within this novel is well thought out, the underlying story is original & interesting, and the twists were unexpected.

    Piper has got to be one of the most fascinating/disturbing/slightly unhinged heroines that has ever existed. With a bit of a superiority complex, Piper is stunning and has such confidence in her beauty that she knows she can have any man that she chooses. Yet family and control are her greatest desires. I am not entirely certain that I like her BUT she is truly intriguing and her uniqueness of character is part of what make this novel so enticing. As for Ollie, let’s just say you need to read the book and I’ll leave it at that. Piper is a relatively quick read that is full of heat, torture, complex characters, and some good surprises. I suppose I should just say, dare to get out of your comfort zone, expect the unexpected, and enjoy the ride because you won’t regret it! Oh and there is a bit of a cliffhanger so don’t mind me while I not so-patiently wait to see what Ollie and Piper are up to next!

    **Trigger Warning- talks of abuse** This book is crazy insane. So this is on a whole new level of creepy good. Let's meet Piper who has had a tough childhood. She gets out and makes a good life but has a secret life as well. She hides her insecurities. She has trust issues and likes to be in control of everything. Then we have Ollie who is her pet. Not like an actual pet but a person she refers to as a pet. She uses him for her plans. She seduces men to feed her mischief. Which once you find out what a mischief is you will be stunned if you didn't know it is a shocker. Something new I learned about. However, while reading about the relationship with Ollie and Piper, you wonder if there will be more that will happen between them. Is the love just one sided? Will Piper continue what she is doing and move on? What will Ollie do? How will it end? Well it has a cliffhanger so we got to wait and see what will happen.

    While I admire this new to me author, I struggled to read this book once I realised what was happening.

    It was well written, unique and I could feel the intimacy from Ollie's side - I just couldn't get past Piper's erm... kink?

    I’m speechless! I honestly don’t know what to say about this book. I have a few ideas of what I could say but I don’t think that would be close to how I want to describe it. Emma Luna left me speechless! This books was GRITTY! This book was wickedly dark! It wasn’t what I expected but yet I was so intrigued and definitely want more. Piper is such an interesting woman. You get to learn about her difficult past and why she does things she was she does. Then there is Ollie. He is so dedicated to Piper I love it! He has also had a difficult past since he is the only one left from his family. You can see the connection instantly between the two. It’s so sexy between the two! You’ll definitely be fighting for these two and rooting for them in this book. This is definitely left on a cliffhanger that I know I need to see where it goes! It’s such an intersecting story and I’m so excited to read more and get more from these characters!

    I definitely recommend you to read this book I’d you like twisted dark romances!

    I expected a little more of the backstory of the main character more towards the beginning/middle. The development was a little slow. We got to the very important things until the very end :/ however, overall pretty good dark story. I want to know what happens with Oliver and if he gets his HEA!!❤️

    4.0 out of 5 stars The truth is much, much darker!
    Reviewed in Australia on December 18, 2020
    Piper works as a clinical psychologist by day, everything she let's others see is planned ~ they see her as a sweet prudish and shy woman but that's not the truth. The truth is much more darker, twisted and dangerous and if you get to see the real Piper, well it ain't looking good for you!
    Having survived her drug addict mum and her pimp boyfriend, Piper may have grown up but the past has scarred and changed her. On Halloween night, she allows herself to show part of her real self to the world, and when she meets Chance, maybe he will get to see the real her, but first he needs to pass a few tests.
    Oliver first met Piper as his psychologist after getting charged with criminal damage, the police hoped she could help him get over his horrific past but maybe they can help each other heal, in their own twisted way or is Piper to far gone to be saved by Ollie and how far does he go for her?
    Is it Chance who holds the key to finally stopping the darkness or is he just part of the next chapter?

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2021
    Piper Newton is a Clinical Psychiatrist but nobody really knows her she projects a false persona and has done so for some years. She loves her family, her mischief but has not let anybody else truly close to her. Ollie Parker is twenty one and has know Piper for a year, ever since he was referred to her after troubled teen years and minor criminal activity. Ollie loves Piper and has done everything she has asked of him for the past year, but he desperately wishes that she could love him too and he's worried what's going to happen in the near future.
    I can honestly say that this is a page turner and my stomach was clenched most of the time I was reading it. This story is dark, Piper is damaged and to some extent so is Ollie but the story makes for compelling reading and ends on a cliff hanger...I can't wait for part two!!!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Mischief 2.5 ⭐️
    Reviewed in Australia on April 16, 2022
    Premise was interesting, execution sadly fell flat for me.

    “𝐼 𝒶𝓂 𝒫𝒾𝓅𝑒𝓇 𝒩𝑒𝓌𝓉𝑜𝓃, 𝒶 𝒸𝓁𝒾𝓃𝒾𝒸𝒶𝓁 𝓅𝓈𝓎𝒸𝒽𝒾𝒶𝓉𝓇𝒾𝓈𝓉 𝒻𝓇𝑜𝓂 𝒶 𝓈𝓂𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝓉𝑜𝓌𝓃 𝒾𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓃𝑜𝓇𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇𝓃 𝓅𝒶𝓇𝓉 𝑜𝒻 𝐸𝓃𝑔𝓁𝒶𝓃𝒹.”

    Plot issues in such a short read were 🙄 Piper switched between being a psychiatrist to a psychologist throughout.

    “𝒫𝒾𝓅𝑒𝓇, 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓌𝑒𝓁𝓁 𝓇𝑒𝓈𝓅𝑒𝒸𝓉𝑒𝒹 𝒸𝓁𝒾𝓃𝒾𝒸𝒶𝓁 𝓅𝓈𝓎𝒸𝒽𝑜𝓁𝑜𝑔𝒾𝓈𝓉 𝓁𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓈 𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝑔𝓈 𝒸𝓊𝓉𝑒 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒽𝑜𝓂𝑒𝓁𝓎.”

    I did feel for Ollie and Piper’s narcissistic behaviour.

    Dark themed, sadly predictable. Told not shown. It came across as a very young writing style. To me it felt the repeated phrases were used to stretch out a word count.

    Second book by this author I’ve read, the first I didn’t review hoping they’d update errors. Attention to editing appears to be an issue each time. 2.5⭐️

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent story - deliciously dark and twisted romance
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 18, 2020
    If you've read the fab Halloween Anthology earlier this year, you would have already met Piper who is an insane, slightly terrifying but ultimately loveable and inspiring character and her mischief. This book, Piper, expands on Piper and her motivations and why her mischief and Reggie are so important. It is heartbreaking and makes you root for her throughout all the craziness that happens. Ollie is also expanded upon in this story and, let me just say, I did not see half the twists that happened!

    Their steam in this story is so hot - just off the charts! I loved it and it just accentuated how deliciously dark this story was. I am so excited for Managing Mischief, #2 and it can't come soon enough!

    Wow. What a messed up woman. Should I be concerned about you Emma? This book is terrifying and will definitely leave me with nightmares. Poor Ollie. The fact that this was so vividly evil and psychotic goes to show how incredible the writing is. Was that really less than 200 pages? I feel kind of traumatised but almost in a good way...its a weird feeling...what have you done to me?
