Title: Very Twisted Things
Series: Briarcrest Academy # 3
Author: Ilsa Madden-Mills
Release Date: March 1, 2015
A sassy violinist who lives next door.
An obsessed rock star who watches her through binoculars.
And one night when she bares it all.
Life will never be the same in Tinseltown.
Vital Rejects front guy Sebastian Tate never imagined his YouTube music video would go viral, sky-rocketing him to acting success in Hollywood. Okay, maybe he did. After all, he’s a cocky dude who knows he’s hot-as-hell, and it was only a matter of time before his stars aligned.
But life in Tinseltown is never what it seems.
After being cheated on, his only rule to falling in love is simple: Keep Calm and Don’t Do It. Spying on his mysterious new neighbor with binoculars seems innocent enough, but quickly escalates into an erotic game between two very unlikely people.
Twenty-year-old Violet St. Lyons is a world-renowned violinist who's lost her mojo on stage. She hides away in a Hollywood mansion, trying to find her way through her twisted past in order to make her future.
He’s the life of the party with girls chasing him down for his autograph. She’s the introvert with a potty mouth who doesn’t even know who he is.
When they meet, stars collide, sparks fly, and clothes come off. Yet, giving his heart to a girl isn’t Sebastian’s plan; falling for a guy who craves attention isn’t Violet’s.
Welcome to Briarcrest Academy—Hollywood style—where sometimes the best things in life are VERY TWISTED THINGS.
My heart was swooning when I found out I would be reading Sebastian's story, and it did not disappoint!! The prologue, goodness, that prologue had me gripping my tablet with a death grip; I felt I was the one going through that!! Ms Madden-Mills, you had me in tears with just that opening scene....
Sebastian is now on his own, living with his band member/friend, Spider and despite being "Sebastian", he refuses to do relationships unless they are "fake". That is what he has going on with Blair Storm. As I read why, it kind of made sense to me but it complicated things when it came Violet. Sebastian truly is a sweetheart, yet at times I wanted to reach out and smack him because the decisions he made were not the brightest. But, you live and you learn.
Violet, with everything that she's gone through, I'm amazed at her ability and strength to carry on live because honestly, I don't believe I could. Violet fights with herself every day just to continue to live, yet she knows her parents would want her to and until now, she didn't really have a big incentive to… That is, until she sees Sebastian, her next door neighbor, spying on her every night. She plays her violin every night but not in front of a crowd, yet she knows she has to find the courage to do so, not only for her but for her parents.
The chemistry between Sebastian and Violet is HOT, and it kept building up until it had me panting and wanting them to go all the way…LOL. Ms. Madden-Mills’ writing was just amazingly beautiful, describing their relationship, fears, hopes and dreams. I could not get enough of Sebastian and V and hope we can get a novella and/or more of them in Spider's book. Please??
If you're looking for freshness, sweetness, angstiness, sexiness and hotness, then click away and get ready for a ride you won't want to get off.

I fell in love with Sebastian in Ilsa's debut novel Very Bad Things. I couldn't wait to get my hands on a book about him! I crossed my fingers book two would be his, but it wasn't. I get it now! Sebastian had to grow up a bit to have his story and OMG! Has he ever grown up! He's hot, he's sexy, he's sweet but most of all, he's a rock star! As Rachael Ray would say, YUMM-O! And he's found his perfect match in V!
This prologue! Oh my! What an absolute hook! I dare you to read the first few pages and not devour this book in one sitting! And thanks to this book I'll NEVER be able to take my kids to the playground and not think very twisted, dirty things! You've ruined swing sets for me, Ilsa!
I really enjoyed this story. Perfect amounts of drama, a little bit of angst and loads of sexual tension. Very Twisted Things was a perfect addition to the Briarcrest Academy series! I'm looking forward to reading Spider's book, so write fast, Ilsa!!
Very Twisted Things is the third book in the Briarcrest Academyseries, it can be read as a standalone, no cliffhanger.

~ Review by Erin
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills writes about strong heroines and sexy alpha males that sometimes you just want to slap.
She is addicted to dystopian and all things fantasy, including unicorns and sword-wielding heroines. Other fascinations include frothy coffee beverages, Instagram, Ian Somerhalder (seriously hot), astronomy (she’s a Gemini), Sephora make-up, homemade soups, and tattoos.
When she’s not pecking away on her computer, she shops for cool magnets and paints old furniture.
She loves to hear from readers and fellow authors.
