Twisted Secrets (Deadly Isles Special Ops Book 1) by Amy McKinley – Review by Karyn Taylor

Twisted Secrets by Amy McKinley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Twisted Secrets is the first book in the Deadly Isles Special Ops series by Amy McKinley. I first fell in love with Amy McKinley’s writing with the Gray Ghost series and the Deadly Isles Special Ops series is a spin off from that series which makes me even more excited to read it. Amy McKinley is the queen of the psychological suspense thriller and this is probably my favourite genre/trope to read.
Navy SEAL Xander Hale is struggling after his last mission went wrong and is feeling rather disillusioned with life. A chance stop off at a coffee shop brings him together with grad student Riley Evans. A relationship is the last thing that either are looking for. Xander has recently split from his girlfriend and Riley’s ex is acting weird. But they do say that love hits you at the most unexpected times.
As you expect from Amy McKinley, this is much more that ‘just’ a romance story. McKinley writes the most amazing thrillers that have you gripped from the very first page and keeps a tight hold of you until the very last second. Twisted Secrets keeps up this amazing tradition. This story will grab you and take you on a journey full of danger, intrigue and romance and you won’t want to put it down.
