"Twisted Love" is a work of fiction that tells the story of a deadly love triangle resulting from unconquerable obsession. Let's explore the dark recesses of human desire through plot and characterization. Tommy Landis is a young man of Italian and Irish descent who lives in Brooklyn, New York and works at a messenger center in Manhattan. He is an attractive man who seems to hide behind Woody Allen - like glasses and a shield of insecurity. As the story begins, he lives a lonely life, socializing mainly with his mother and other employees at his workplace while yearning for romance with the woman of his dreams. After trying his luck with answering a personal ad from the newspapers, Tommy is contacted by Crystal Farnsworth, a beautiful young woman with a similar yearning for love. They begin dating, and soon Tommy realizes that Crystal is the woman he has been waiting for; Crystal, on the other hand, realizes that Tommy is not her ideal man. Meanwhile, Tommy's attractive co-worker, Maria DeBlanco, has fallen in love with him, even though, he remain oblivious to her feelings while he fruitlessly chases Crystal. Tommy and Maria's attraction to individuals they cannot have devolves into obsession, and soon both are full-blown stalkers with the intent to kill. While a meaningful romance with each other is within their grasp, they choose to exchange sanity for insanity and romance for tragedy. Portraying the irrationality of obsession, "Twisted Love", invites readers into the minds of two stalkers who begins with good intentions but end with murder. .........isn't love a bit twisted?..............
