Two temperatures have to coexist in romantic suspense: the chill of an operation going wrong and the warmth of two people finding each other in the middle of it. Patricia Logan works in exactly that register. All Twisted Up, the title carrying this name on our shelves, sits in the LGBTQ+ corner of the genre, where the case file and the love story are given equal weight rather than one being decoration for the other.
The book belongs to the FBI Files Spec. Ops. Tac Team sequence, and the naming convention tells you a good deal about the world it moves in: tactical units, close quarters, colleagues who trust each other with their lives before they trust each other with anything else. Logan writes for listeners who want the procedural scaffolding to feel solid and the relationship to earn its heat honestly.
