Twisted Hate by Ana Huang
4.0
emotional funny fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A steamy and engaging enemies-to-lovers romance that delivers plenty of banter and chemistry between Jules and Josh. Their relationship evolves naturally, shifting from rivals to friends-with-benefits to something deeper, with both characters showing real growth. I especially appreciated that they had strong career ambitions, adding depth beyond just the romance. However, Josh’s reaction to Jules’ confession felt overly harsh and unnecessary, dampening an otherwise well-developed love story. Despite that, the book is an addictive read with humor, passion, and emotional depth.
