 Corrupted & Warped (Book 1 & 2 in The Manipulation Trilogy) by Alicia Taylor and Natalie Townson

Corrupted

I am going to marry a monster.

He is my everything.
He manipulates people for fun. He takes over their lives, consuming them. He dominates and crushes, ruling them, claiming their souls. No one can survive the games of Damon Hunt.

Before now. Before me.

I am Ella Knight. I am corrupted. My sister was a victim of Damon's games. It’s my turn to play now.

Damon Hunt has been my sole focus, my everything for three years, since my sister’s death. I'll manipulate him. I'll take over his life, consuming and crushing him. I am going to take away his soul. Damon Hunt will not survive my games. I will win.

I hope.

Warped

I won’t be caught off guard again. I won’t let them win. They played the first round and won. Now it’s time for me to even the score. Damon and Leona will pay for their twisted games. Leona is first.

His touch repulses me.
His fake affection disgusts me.
He sickens me.

I need to get my head in the game. I need to be smart and break their bond to more easily crush them. Damon is clever. He knows what he’s doing. He’s been playing the game long enough.

He’s twisted.
I’m warped.

It’s time to finally end this.
Time to finally win.

Mini Review

I instantly loved the story in the Manipulation Trilogy. Ella Knight is a woman on a mission. She wants to get revenge on Damon Hunt, the man she blames for her sister's death. What's happens from there is a puzzle unfolding as you learn more. Along with some surprises that keeps you hooked. Reading Corrupted and Warped was like watching a movie you didn't want to end. I'm looking forward to reading the final book when it's released.
