Twisted Miracles opens with Cass who is alone after moving to San Francisco to escape her telekinetic abilities and attempting to suppress them with sedatives. She is unable to come to terms with the guilt over causing the death of a classmate and wants nothing to do with her gift or the Shadowminds community that raised her, fearing she will cause harm to them or others. However, no matter how hard she tries to run from herself or her gifts there is no escape. There is someone out there who is targeting the community, her best childhood friend is missing, and others are dying; pulling her back into the very life she has tried to escape.This is a great urban fantasy with a new twist that sucks you in from the very first page. There are different abilities and levels of abilities, guardians, a struggle for good versus evil, and has all the suspense, action, and mystery this greedy reader could desire. The story is well written with wonderfully colorful characters that tug at your heart leaving you wanting more and more. There is also an underlying romance that heats up the pages with some great sensual smexy action.Twisted Miracles is a journey of self-realization for Cass, as well as a tale of love and loss, the search for where she belongs, and just who she wants to travel that journey with. The ending was very satisfying and does not leave the reader hanging, but rather eager for the next installment in the series to see what these characters will be up to with their next adventure. I would definitely recommend this for adult urban fantasy fans interested in a taste of something different with great characters and an exciting ride. I received this book from NetGalley.
