Ana Huang

Ana Huang is an American author who built an enormous readership through self-publishing before crossing over into mainstream bestseller lists, known for steamy contemporary romance built around wealthy, morally gray love interests. She is best known for the Twisted series (Twisted Love, Twisted Games, Twisted Hate, Twisted Lies) and the Kings of Sin series, both following interconnected circles of ultra-wealthy characters navigating obsessive, high-drama romances, and both massive successes on BookTok and social media that helped drive her rapid rise to traditional publishing deals. New readers should start with Twisted Love, the first book in her breakout series and the clearest introduction to her recurring style: intense, often possessive romantic dynamics paired with close-knit friend-group ensembles that recur across books. Huang writes at a fast pace and her interconnected series structure rewards readers who enjoy revisiting the same social world from different characters' points of view. There is no film or television adaptation of her work to date, though her commercial success has made her one of the most-read romance authors to emerge from the self-publishing and social-media era.
