Twisted (Alphabits Book 5) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 887 ratings

Lost. Stolen. Forgotten… until the Alphabits step in.

A Team A.L.P.H.A. spinoff series.

Patton Ryder has always taken pride in the differences between him and his twin brother, Ozzy. But now that Ozzy is mated and has a growing family, Patton is starting to realize that maybe being completely different isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Axel Wilson is extremely protective of his former street crew, a bunch of child thieves who are under the care of his mentor, Saul Hagin. But Saul is dead, and Saul’s mate Ira has dollar signs where his heart should be. Not knowing what else to do, Axel makes a call for help, not realizing that his problem is going to land smack dab in front of the Alphabits, and drop him right on top of his true mate’s lap.

Just because they’re mates doesn’t mean Patton trusts the former thief, but the more they dig into the case and Axel’s past, the more he realizes that Axel has a giant heart full of love that has never been returned the way it ought to. But that gentle heart might be forever scarred if they can’t rescue the kids from Ira’s cold machinations soon enough.

The Alphabits aren’t vigilantes. These former soldiers and officers of the law have to do things by the book—even when it tears them apart to do so. But once all their ducks are in a row, the bad guys had better beware! You do
not want this team of protective alphas on your tail.

This is the fifth in the Alphabits series, and should be read in order for maximum enjoyment. You can expect to find naughty, knotty scenes of steamy passion, along with a lot of potty-mouth language and some violence. Be ready for a go-go dancing snow leopard, the rolliest and polliest of hedgehogs and the first appearance of a vortex in the Team ALPHA world. HEA definitely included, intended for 18+ readers only. Seriously, would you expect anything less from Susi Hawke and Crista Crown?

    These books all end with such satisfying and hopeful HEAs. I loved Axel so much, he reminded me of Pax without being exactly the same. I loved that Patton was willing to give his mate anything and everything, despite how others might think.

    Twisted has Finn and Patton on a case. Axle wants help for his friends and needs the Alphabits to get it. Axel and Patton are mates from first scent. Patton's twin Ozzy drive each other nuts. I laughed til I cried when Ozzy walks in on Patton and Axel without knocking and got more than an eyeful--he got way too much TMI.
    There are a few trust issues between Patton and Axel, leading to some funny times. They work to find and save the kids in Axle's old crew. Maddie is one of the kids and the cutest little hedgehog ever.
    The Alphabits get ready to take care of business and jump in to take care of the kids in the crew. The Ghost and Pattycakes add to the crew with baby Jasmine.
    I can't wait for Cy's story, and there was a delicious hint about Damon. Sounds like lots more Alphabits to come and I'll be there to one-click and get them. I love these stories.

    Patton is up next in the true mates lottery. Axel alerts the team to a modern day Fagin using homeless shifter children to steal for him. When Patton meets Axel to get more information, they both realize that they are fated mates, and the case is temporarily set aside for more urgent needs. Back on the job, Axel helps them to take down the bad guy and rescue the kids. Unlike the previous books in the series, this one doesn't end with a foreshadowing of the next story. Great series.

    Wow was this book awesome! I enjoyed Patton more than I first thought I would but his mate Axel was a show stealer.

    Character breakdown;

    Patton: Good alpha, loved that he wasn't as alpha as everyone else but still protective enough of goods mate and children.

    Axel: I loved the snow leopard! He wasn't too sassy but wasn't too much omega or other. He was just himself!

    I noticed one thing in this book, the characters never officially said I love you to each other. And I also loved the slight slow burn and pacing of the two is them being together. There wasn't a Insta love but an Insta like lol.
