    "Pain is Therapy. Pain is healing. Pain is the only thing that purges." A story of pain that morphs into beauty
  

*by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2015*

If you do not like very dark and twisted stories, do not, I repeat DO NOT buy this series. Pepper is an amazing writer and she can write about anything, but she went there. And she went way dark. It's not nice and full of happiness. Not even close. This is a story of sex and human traffic. It's a story of being beaten down. It's a story of fighting back and taking flight. It's a story of growing to appreciate the darkness inside and making it your light. That darkness became a beauty, to me and prevailed.In book 1 (Tears of Tess), I was all over the place. Up, down, hating the boyfriend. Why was he so weak and stupid? Trying to understand why Tess settled in her life when she so obviously wanted more."I let Brax shove me back inot the box where I belonged. The box labelled: perfect, innocent girlfriend who'd do anything for him, as long as it was in the dark and on my back."Questioning Q and what the hell his motives were. So many twists and turns and loving that in spite of it all, Tess was pretty much a kick a$$ chick that never backed down. Even when the worst happened.Book 2 (Quintessentially Q). Man. That made me stop many times. It was a rough ride and so horrendous. Dark, so dark. Hating the men of this story, except Q and his team. He took the world on for his love of Tess."She's more than just one woman, Dubois. She's my life."This story, again was well written, but ripped my heart out piece by piece multiple times and I never knew if it would be put back together right again. Patchwork heart? Perhaps so. Our strong Tess was still there and a fighter but something broke. Would SHE be able to be put back together again? Or did this break her permanently?Book 3 (Twisted Together).  So glad that I kept with the story and got here. Totally unconventional in so many ways, but it came full circle and the love and fight these 2 had for one another was actually pretty romantic if you look beyond the ugly."Stroke me, provoke me, adore me, I implore thee, take all of me, ensnare me, play me to your tune"It's not pretty. Not one bit, but Their darkness prevailed in one another until it came out in light. And while this book was still dark and twisted, I wasn't on much of a roller coaster any more. My heart was still stomped out on the ground, but Tess was back and she was ready."My name is Tess...I'm no longer weak or afraid or broken. I've taken control of my fate. I no longer need a tower or dark angels or help. And I take your soul in penance for everything that was done to me . I take it for the women you've raped. I take it for the women you've sold. I take it for my master, soul-mate,....I take you for me."Dark, Twisted, Ugly and full of hope and pain. This series of books took hold and didn't let go. I LOVED them. If you can stand a bit of darkness, this can take you on a rollercoaster of emotions that have you gripped from the start. Well written and a great and intriguing FICTION story. While I got this set for a measily $.99, it is worth much more! Phenomenal writing with characters that you can feel and grow with.

    I Cried when this book went so wrong in Vol 2... WHY :'( But Vol 3 was Awsome
  

*by S***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2015*

I loved Tears of Tess disliked Quintessentially Q and didn't even bother reading Twisted Together (maybe I will but not today).***** Update *****Thank you for writing Twisted Together because book two killed me. This book was amazing.This is a dark romance I love Vol 1 Q and Tess were made for each other he had dark secrets she had dark secrets. They meet in a horrible circumstance b/c she was kidnapped from Mexico sold to the Russian Mafia and was given as a business bribe to Q. They fell for each other she got kidnapped again by some other retards and was raped and was saved by Q n then he released her back to her previous life. She couldn't manage being without him and went back to him. They lived Happily Ever After The End WRONG!!!!.  It could've ended there but it didn't. In Vol 2 Apparently she got kidnapped again by the same guys from Mexico and since she "forgot" to remove the tracker that was placed in her neck (go figure) they were able to easily find her. Although the Russian Mafia had already known where she was since they gave her directly to Q and were in his house for dinner while she was halfway naked on display. Anyway, she was taken to Rio and was drugged for what seemed to be every hour for 14 days and was starved oh and she had pneumonia and was made to beat and kill other girls in her drugged state. At the rate that she was drugged anyone would've died of an overdose. I wasn't okay with that but it was tolerable I skipped like 6 chapters of this repeating scenario. What I didn't like was that in this book Q seemed like a dumb@$$ who couldn't think coherently and was losing his f!@#$%^ mind oh and was portrayed as a godd!@ whimp at the end. When they finally find her she was a drugged up mess and the recovery was even messier. He kept on begging her and begging in so many ways on different chapters to talk and she refused and build a cocoon and eliminated everything and everyone after the kidnap including the love of her life Q. She was so mean, aloof, rude, and indifferent towards Q for like 5 chapters (I skipped a lot) the entire time she was physically healing like 2-3 weeks. He finally had the bright idea to have her beat the f!@# out him almost to death and then miraculously she was cured. It took about 3 weeks for Q to accept her back and believe that she was the same.  I was so disappointed with the repetitiveness of the how Q begged and how drugged she was, and how Q went from bold animalistic beast to someone/something he was not. Although he kicked a lot of @$$ in this book, and he seem like a tough guy you would not want to mess with but it was all screwed up when Tess was rescued.Could've ended there too but no obviously there's Vol 3 I will update at a later date maybe my stars for this book will go up or maybe it will go down after reading Vol 3. I love Pepper but Vol 2 was not bad but too repetitive.I'm glad she wrote Twisted Together because it redeemed Q's manliness and it saved the love story build up between Q and Tess. Loved the first book and the third not so much the second. It was an epic ending.

Just amazing! There aren't enough superlatives to describe this trilogy.  From the depths of human depravity to one of the best (kinky scorching hot) love stories I've read in a long time.  Definitely not for the faint hearted-please listen to the TW'S.
