Summary
Narrated by Jason Clarke and Carly Robins, Twisted Fate is book two in the emotional, star-crossed Dark Heart Duet from USA Today best-selling author Ella James!
I thought he was the white knight. Looking back, it makes sense. I was young and needed saving. Luca was my strength. He could take on anything - the world, for me. They say first love cuts the deepest. Ours became a blade that bled me out. It turns out I didn't know a villain when he held my heart in his hands. Now it's darker - more like his.
Elise was my whole world - until my world burned, and I destroyed her with me. Some betrayals, you can't undo, no matter how much you wish you could. I can't help who I am now, and why would I want to? I run this city. No one's going to take me down - not even the Manhattan District Attorney's office. I heard they've got a file eight inches thick on Don Galante. But dodging bullets is my business. They play dirty, but there's no one dirtier than me. The DA learns the hard way who's in charge; he's out. It should be time for celebration. There's just one problem: his heir. Or should I say heiress?
Elise O'Hara wears a crown of lies, a gown of red, and a fat diamond on her left hand. Now it's me and her. Or her and me. Only one of us will be left standing when the story's over. This is how you write a tragedy.

Really Good Duet
This is part two of the Dark Heart Duet and picks up several years after the events of the first book. It is both an exciting mafia story and also a second chance at love. I liked that the heroine is a strong successful woman but also carries some insecurities just like a real woman. The hero is the Don of a crime family but is very different than how most Mafia stories portray the leader . It makes for a story that is less predictable than others in that category. I enjoyed this story and both laughed and cried. Jason Clarke and Carly Robins were a good choice for the audiobook version.
The only issue is that I was having trouble with confusing the characters names. Between the two books, there are a lot of side characters to keep track of.

Fate will always but a twist on your heart
Wow what a story. Ella James wrote this story with Star Cross hero and heroine. This story will break your heart but also give you hope for true love . You will listen to it right till the end praying for the hero and Heroine.
Luca is the hero. Elise is the heroine. This story of young love ( book 1 ) takes place 10 yrs later. Luca has become the top Dom after his father is not around. Elise has become the DA in NY . Elisa is tasked with bring down the Dom , her first love .
Luca will do everything to survive.
Do they part ways , do they betray their path . What happens with them , they were each other’s first love
I love the performance of Carly Robins, and Jason Clarke. They were perfect doing the characters. You felt you were beside Luca and Elise

Holy Moly!!
A truly tragic love story. My heart is still aching for these two. They really are star crossed lovers. Over 2 years has passed since the end of book 1, and things have changed somewhat. Not even friends in passing, more like enemies, although they pretend they’re not still checking each other out, but they always are. Then we fast forward 14 years and my, oh my. Elise is crowned the new DA, whilst the now Mafia Don Luca looks on. Now, even if they wanted to, they can’t be lovers, or even friends. Action, intrigue, and a plot line to keep you on your toes. I loved both Elise and Luca. The only games they played were to keep each other safe, it would seem that first love never really dies, I was in emotional overdrive at times. I was desperate for them to make it work, I just couldn’t see it as a possibility. Wonderfully written (it definitely kept me on my toes), and super narration from both Jason Clarke and Carley Robins. I was in audio heaven.

Luca and Elise!
When they were teenagers Luca and Elise fell in love however their upbringing couldn’t have been more different. They didn’t think anything could tear them apart until one devastating night that changed both their worlds forever.
Sixteen years later Luca is the head of a mafia family while Elise has just been elected the DA. They have both never moved on from the love they shared but now they find themselves on opposite sides a relationship between them could not only end careers it could end their lives. Their heads know they can’t be together, but their hearts are drawn to each other in a way that is impossible to deny.
This is an emotional and angst filled story about two soulmates who have always belonged together and even though events have kept them apart destiny can be delayed but it can’t be denied. The performance of the narrators draw you in and rather than just listening to the story they make you feel like you are part of it.

Such a fantastic conclusion
This was quite the conclusion to the story of Luca and Elise. It was gut wrenching at times and I felt like I wanted to cry at other times. It doesn't leave off exactly where book 1 left off, but the angst and emotions are pretty much the same if not extended with distance and time. As such it makes the relationship that much more edgier. I thought this might be darker and while I didn't get everything I wanted, the tension more than made up for it. Oh and Jason Clarke speaking Italian? 10/10 would listen again. I volunteered to listen and review an ALC of this. All opinions are my own.

Betrayals and Redemption
Ella James outdid herself with Twisted Fate! I loved the conclusion to Elise and Luca's epic forbidden love story. With Elise being the law and Luca the mafia, there were obvious fireworks. Jason Clarke and Carly Robins were fantastic at bringing the characters to life. They had chemistry and inflected the right emotions. I loved it!
