The Twisted Series by Ana Huang: Where Dark Desires Meet Dangerous Secrets

Beware the man who promises forever while guarding a heart of ice. The Twisted series by Ana Huang has exploded from a BookTok sensation into a definitive pillar of modern "steamy" contemporary romance. This isn’t your standard boy-meets-girl narrative; it is a high-stakes exploration of obsession, moral ambiguity, and the thin line between love and loathing.

If you’re ready to trade sweet fairytales for gritty, billionaire-led power plays and forbidden bonds, this Twisted series 4-book collection is your next visceral obsession.

The Twisted Books in Order: A Trope-Lover’s Dream

While each book can be read as a standalone, they are best enjoyed in sequence to fully grasp the interconnected lives of the core friend group. Note: The character dynamics are significantly deeper than your average romance—expect flawed heroes and heroines who fight for their happy endings.

• Twisted Love: Meet Alex Volkov—a man cursed by a past he can't escape and driven by a cold ambition that leaves no room for love. When he’s forced to look after his best friend’s sister, Ava Chen, the ice begins to crack. This is more than a "brother's best friend" romance; it’s a story of secrets that could burn worlds down.

• Twisted Games: Princess Bridget von Ascheberg dreams of freedom, but her life is a golden cage. Enter Rhys Larsen, the stoic, elite bodyguard with one rule: never get emotionally involved. Their forbidden "bodyguard x princess" romance is a masterclass in tension, proving that some rules are meant to be shattered.

• Twisted Hate: Josh Chen and Jules Ambrose cannot stand each other. He’s a charming doctor; she’s an ambitious law student. Their "enemies-to-lovers" fire is fueled by a mutual dislike that masks an undeniable carnal attraction. It’s volatile, heart-wrenching, and unapologetically steamy.

• Twisted Lies: Christian Harper is a monster in a tailored suit, and Stella Alonso is the shy social media star living in the apartment below him. When a fake dating arrangement turns into a dangerous obsession, the truth becomes a weapon. This finale is a dark, slow-burn masterpiece that redefines the "unreliable narrator."
