Holly and Blythe are ascending the ladder of success within their company and are at the top of their game for their young age.  Although Blythe seems to have been graced with the favor of Cupid, Holly has had no such luck.  After an unsuccessful attempt at marriage, she is plagued by the concept of love and completely shifts her focus toward her career.  That is until Trent shows an interest in her, causing her to hesitantly consider the possibilities.  Although against office policy, the co-workers consent to a date and the rest is history.  The affair comes to an abrupt halt when Holly is given an ultimatum that could cause her to lose her job if she continues the relationship.  Unbeknownst to her, this would be a decision that would change her life forever.  Unable to handle rejection because of issues stemming from his past, Trent seeks to impose revenge on Holly for the break up.  After being kidnapped, held hostage and raped, Holly is literally dumped back home; only this time she returns with a fierce determination to avenge her attacker of his misdeeds.Deidra Green's Twisted Sister was an outstanding portrayal of what a woman may encounter, emotionally and physically, when raped.  That scene alone is enough to make you wonder how Holly made it out of that building with her mental faculties intact as a result of the mind games he forced her to endure.  The imagery used by the author made his actions even more repugnant.  In a nutshell, Trent made my blood boil.  His transformation from gentleman to monster was one that may cause women to be extra cautious when dealing with men they don't know.  Both characters illustrate how unresolved issues from the past can negatively affect your future on multiple levels.  This story will certainly arouse emotions of fury, anguish and helplessness as you travel these pages with Holly.  I love to read stories that will engage your emotions and this book fit the bill.  Twisted Sister II & III are now required reading as I must see how Ms. Green allows this story to unfold.  This title is highly recommended.
