This is the Route of Twisted Pain: Neither This Nor That Book One

Written by MariaLisa deMora

Narrated by Kirt Graves

Legends are born from moments like these. Folktales spun around a single point in time so perfect, you can almost hear the click resonating through the universe as things align.

George Bell, aka Twisted, knows the odds are against him. Have been all his life. Born in a Louisiana bordello, raised around the rough and rowdy men of a motorcycle club, he’s never been the lucky type. But he believes luck can change, so when fate gives him a glimpse of breathtaking beauty, he’s more than willing to roll the dice. Chancing upon what could be the woman of his dreams, he’s prepared to push this streak as far as he can.

Penny Dane’s background gives her an edge in the life she’s chosen to lead. Raised in a can-do family, she’s resilient, rolling with life’s punches and landing on her feet. But, when the past holds painful secrets—when a single misstep can turn deadly—can she trust the passion this man stirs in her?

On the surface, Bell and Penny don’t work. Their mismatched worlds are too different. But like a backwater bayou, what you see is not the whole story, there are mysteries buried underneath. Penny is the red-haired beauty caught up in a web of lies. Bell is like no one she’s ever met before. The problem is, he knows it.

I love the world of the Incoherent MC! MariaLisa always paints a vivid picture with her words and this is no exception. It's nice to read a strong female character who can hold her own. Penny more than proves herself and Twisted has definitely met his match.

The audio of this novel just enhances the experience. He has the most perfect voice for Twisted! I do wish some of the female voices were softer/male ones were harder, but overall I won't complain. Can't wait to get my ears on the next one!

I am a huge fan of MariaLisa deMora. The Incoherent MC is home to some of my favorite people on this planet. As I listened to Kirt Graves bring Twisted to life, I fell more in love with this book. The sweet southern Louisiana drawl just drew me in deeper to the story. I read Penny and Twisted's story before but listening to those words read by Kirt made the story so much better. The nuances, subtle sarcasm and sighs that my own imagination left out were wonderful additions to the audio book. Twisted and his shiny Penny are even better with Kirt reading their story to me.
