From New York Times bestselling author and BookTok sensation Ana Huang comes a billionaire brother’s best friend romance!
He has a heart of ice…but for her, he’d burn the world
A diverse new adult steamy romance from Tiktok sensation and USA Today bestselling author Ana Huang.
Alex Volkov is a devil blessed with the face of an angel and cursed with a past he can’t escape.
Driven by a tragedy that has haunted him for most of his life, his ruthless pursuits for success and vengeance leave little room for matters of the heart.
But when he’s forced to look after his best friend’s sister, he starts to feel something in his chest:
A crack.
A melt.
A fire that could end his world as he knew it.
***
Ava Chen is a free spirit trapped by nightmares of a childhood she can’t remember.
But despite her broken past, she’s never stopped seeing the beauty in the world…including the heart beneath the icy exterior of a man she shouldn’t want.
Her brother’s best friend.
Her neighbor.
Her savior and her downfall.
Theirs is a love that was never supposed to happen-but when it does, it unleashes secrets that could destroy them both…and everything they hold dear.
Twisted Love is a contemporary brother’s best friend/grumpy sunshine romance. It’s book one in the Twisted series but can be read as a standalone.

Ok. So this book series was all over TikTok & I finally caved. As per usual with this author, the book is well written the pacing is good, I liked the characters and even the plot itself was good…I’d give the heat level two chili peppers….But the believability of the the plot twists eek. It’s in the details where it all falls apart for me. -SPOILER-Ava Chen’s bother is going away for a year so he asks his best friend of 8 years, Alex, to watch over his sister. Within 2/3 months they fall madly in love. I wish we had felt them fall in love not just had a few movie nights and a few bouts of jealousy then boom life altering love. But ok. During this time Ava recovers her repressed memories of her dad trying to murder her. Supportive Alex seems to have everything in place to bring her dad down. We find out later why he’s so prepared but still-It’s a little like an infomercial during the scene (insert eye roll here) but wait there’s more! First he surprised the dad with- you’re being recorded- and your son has been secretly watching, AND the fbi is here-boom case closed. You’re going to jail. Just cheese city the way it all played out. Thennnnnn Alex finds out after 10 years of planning the ruin of the man who killed his family it wasn’t him at all! Again. We needed another murderer in their midst? Is this a mafia romance? No.Ok. Fine. Cut to a kidnap scene in which Alex presses the number 1 on his phone (discreetly of course) and instead of the police showing up 10 minutes later- it’s a “clean up” crew mascarading as police and ems crew. Sorry. Don’t buy it. Again I’m willing to jump the hurdle to get to the next point in the plot. And the author must have felt the same way. I picture her on the computer like” ugh. How is Alex going to get away with MURDER in 1 page or less”. He then breaks up with Ava (for her protection of course) and really hasn’t this excuse been used enough? It never lands well with me but again. Ok. Then we wait 5 months. 👀 my patience level is zero at this point, but im sticking it out for my hea. He finally comes to his senses and tells her he loves her but of course he broke her trust and she “just can’t” cause as a reader we haven’t been tortured enough apparently. So she makes him wait A YEAR!!!! That’s not even the most unbelievable part of the story. He waits for her every morning with a coffee and walks her to work for a YEARRRRRR. Never once touching her. He walks her to and from work every single day. In another continent. Doesn’t work. Doesn’t have friends. No family. Lives his life solely hanging on these 30 minitues per day 5 days a week he gets with her? Major ick. It doesn’t sound romantic it sounds pathetic and I just could not. A year? He ate dinner alone for a year, spent Christmas alone? Wandered the city aimlessly all day just waiting for her FOR A YEAR?? no vacations, no purpose, no friends, no conversation, while she went out with friends and had a fullfilling thriving career? The wieght of being alone for a year isn’t stated at all in the book. It glosses over how this man went a year without a single human touch. It may seem romantic to some people but killed it for me in a big way. I will probably read the whole series cause I’m a masochist apparently, and I have to see things thru. The friend group each gets their shot at love. Hopefully theirs is less painful and a little more believable. It was a quick read, maybe 3/4 hours total? Enjoyable enough, but I probably won’t be in a rush to read this author again. After this series hahah.

Alex and Ava’s story is beautiful! It gave me some major Fifty Shades vibes with Alex being a Billionaire who always gets what he wants and Ava is the “Sunshine” that he didn’t know he needed. Thankfully there is a completely different storyline and there is a definite “revenge is a dish best served cold” feel about it. As my first Ana Huang book, I am very pleased to say that I am officially a fan! I enjoyed the storyline, the perfect amount of smexy stuff and it was easy to read.
My Personal Ratings:
5 Stars: Loved it! Couldn’t put it down or obsessed about it while needing to get to the end of it. Had to share some bits with my hubby!! Usually read in less than 2 days cause a girl has got to sleep sometime. Will be reading everything this author has to offer and most likely reread the series as next books in the series are released.
4 Stars: Really Good. Whether the story drew me in or a specific character, will definitely continue the series and look into more books by this author.
3 Stars: Enjoyed something about the book, whether it be the storyline or a character but also may have not liked something. Sometimes the book is great but needs some TLC from an editor. May or may not continue the series.

Discovered it because of booktok. Loved this book so much! Now all my close friends are also reading it. The plot is a perfect balance between romance, suspense and drama. Please don’t expect to be reading Shakespeare. It’s an entertainment book and it does just that: entertain! The perfect read for summer/vacation time

I say this book all over TikTok and decided to give a shot, as it seemed spicy. Which don’t get me wrong it is, but oh my gosh it’s so much more. Love, betrayal, twists and turns! It was an amazing book, my only complaint is that it ended and I don’t have more to read about Alex & Ava. 10/10 recommend.

Alex é extraordinário e muito controvérsio. A autora retrata bem como funciona as mentes dos personagens e cria um cenário para a evolução da personalidade de cada um. Eu amei

There is no other words to say it. I am a fast reader… but it fascinated me to the last word! 8 hours of continuously reading, through night! And the best experience ever! WOW! This was… delicious. I loved it! Can‘t wait to read the rest of the series.
P.S.: I would have loved to read that she got pregnant(in the last sequence with the shower). But the ending was also perfect so as it was written.
Thank you, Ana! It was a wonderful experience!
