Description

Dominic Davenport has risen from poverty to become a Wall Street power broker, but the habits that built his fortune have hollowed out his marriage. For years, Alessandra has supported his ambitions and performed the role of a wealthy man’s trophy wife while his work repeatedly came first. When she finally leaves, Dominic confronts a limit money cannot overcome: the woman who once believed he was enough no longer accepts being treated as an accessory. His campaign to win her back requires more than expensive gestures, while Alessandra must decide what independence and love mean on her own terms. This steamy second-chance romance follows a marriage in crisis, balancing desire with resentment, regret, and the cost of unchecked ambition.

About Ana Huang

Ana Huang writes contemporary and New Adult romance built around controlled protagonists, breached boundaries, and relationships complicated by danger, status, or duty. Her prose is direct and conversational, with dialogue carrying much of the friction and pacing. She often begins with a familiar romance device, then makes secrecy and unequal power part of the plot rather than mere backdrop. In Twisted Love, proximity and forbidden attraction develop alongside vengeance, childhood trauma, and suspense. Twisted Hate turns long-running antagonism into an enemies-with-benefits arrangement, using combative banter and explicit intimacy to expose vulnerabilities that its leads would rather conceal. King of Wrath moves the same interest in control into a world of wealthy families, where blackmail and an arranged engagement make courtship a strategic transaction. Huang’s heroines tend to have ambitions and obligations independent of romance, while her heroes are protective and frequently ruthless. She first posted fiction on Wattpad, then self-published and promoted her novels on TikTok. The Twisted series later went viral and was republished by Bloom Books.
