Ana Huang

From Enemies to Lovers: Bei Stella und Josh fliegen die Fetzen - und Funken Hass beschreibt nicht annähernd, was Jules Ambrose für Josh Chen und sein viel zu großes Ego empfindet. Dem heißen Doktor ergeht es ähnlich. Doch Jules ist die beste Freundin seiner Schwester, und so ist es unvermeidbar, dass sie sich ständig über den Weg laufen und gegenseitig in den Wahnsinn treiben. Nach einer unvergesslichen Nacht treffen sie eine Vereinbarung - und werden zu Feinden mit gewissen Vorzügen. Die Regeln sind einfach: keine Eifersucht. Keine Bedingungen. Kein Verlieben. Doch Jules und Josh merken schnell, wie süchtig sie danach sind, dass zwischen ihnen die Funken - und die Fetzen - fliegen ... »Ich hatte so hohe Erwartungen an dieses Buch, und Ana Huang hat sie VOLLSTÄNDIG übertroffen.« ZAHRAA auf GOODREADS Band 3 der heißen und romantischen TWISTED-Reihe von Bestseller-Autorin Ana Huang

Twisted: #3

Twisted Hate

He hates her...almost as much as he wants her. Gorgeous, cocky, and fast on his way to becoming a hotshot doctor, Josh Chen has never met a woman he couldn’t charm—except for Jules f**king Ambrose.

The beautiful redhead has been a thorn in his side since they met, but she also consumes his thoughts in a way no woman ever has.

When their animosity explodes into one unforgettable night, he proposes a solution that’ll get her out of his system once and for all: an enemies with benefits arrangement with simple rules.

No jealousy.

No strings attached.

And absolutely no falling in love.

**

Outgoing and ambitious, Jules Ambrose is a former party girl who’s focused on one thing: passing the attorney’s bar exam.

The last thing she needs is to get involved with a doctor who puts the SUFFER in insufferable…no matter how good-looking he is.

But the more she gets to know him, the more she realizes there’s more than meets the eye to the man she’s hated for so long.

Her best friend’s brother.

Her nemesis.

And her only salvation.


Theirs is a match made in hell, and when the demons from their past catch up with them, they’re faced with truths that could either save them …or destroy everything they’ve worked for.

Twisted Hate is a steamy enemies with benefits/enemies to lovers romance. It's book three in the Twisted series but can be read as a standalone.

Warning: It contains explicit content, profanity, and topics that may be sensitive to some readers. 

Twisted: Book 3

Faith

Our first impressions stick with us the longest, but contrary to popular opinion, some people do change. The only problem is they change faster than our prejudices do.

Grief wasn’t one emotion; it was a hundred emotions wrapped in a dark shroud. 

Nikki Baas

"Let another man touch you, Jules, and you'll find out just how Easily I can take a man's life as I can save one.

"I don't know what you did to me, Red. But somehow, I went from wanting to kill you... to willing to kill for you."

"Take however much time you need. I'll wait."

"Because you're it for me. Whether it's today, tomorrow, a year, or decades from now, that'll never change."

"I'm human, Red. I've made mistakes in the past, and I'll make many more in the future. But mistake I'll never make is letting you go, not whet there's even a sliver of a chance left for us. Because the possibility of you is better than the reality anyone else“

Edna Aviles

Most women thought men wanted them to taste like berries or lavender or whatever, but if we were eating pussy, we wanted to taste pussy, That was the whole fucking point.

Gina-Sophie Franz

But still, I missed him so much it hurt to breathe.

I swiped at my cheeks with the back of my hand, but it was like trying to sweep water back into the ocean. Utterly futile.

Remember when I said I forgive you? I lied. 

Elin Hakvoort

Part of me appreciated the growth, while another part mourned how much time had passed since our friendship ended. Enough that we were funhouse mirror versions of ourselves — the same people at our core but distorted by the changes wrought over time.

Hanae 

'Fake concern was a thousand times worse than no concern at all, because fake concern gave way to false hope, and false hope destroyed souls.' 

Elisa Ulliana

Alcuni baci li senti nelle ossa. Quello lo sentii nell'anima.

Adesso era bella in un modo che mi faceva venire voglia di annegare dentro di lei, di lasciare che riempisse ogni centimetro della mia anima fino a consumarmi.

«Perché tu sei mia» dissi contro la sua bocca., «Lascia che un altro ti tocchi, Jules, e scoprirai che posso togliere la vita a un uomo con la stessa facilità con cui posso salvarla.» 

Non stavo piangendo. Stavo espellendo I'umidità in eccesso. 

Ma poi come ti viene in mente di farti una foto con un pesce in mano, dico io?

Alice Perelta

"That was different," Ava growled. We didn't loathe each other with a burning passion, then turn around and start making out.”

 "I walked into that room and almost lost my shit when I Saw you were hurt I wanted to kill Max for laying a hand on you. That's not hyperbole, Jules. If you saw what he looked like after I was done with him..." His breath skated over my skin. “Luck saved him. But if he so much as breathes in your direction again, I will rip his entrails out and strangle him with them. So yes, Red, I fucking care. So much so it terrifies me."

Is this a typo or am I tripping “him to see him” ?

Obviously, I knew Josh worked in the ER, but I hadn't expected him to see him for some reason. 

I'd been so caught up in the scavenger hunt I hadn't realized she'd been following me, picking up every book with a clue after l moved on to the next section. "The books are yours. You're welcome for diversifying your reading. " Josh said.

OH MY god. Marry Me. <3 I need to take a breather🦋

"Is this a bookstore scavenger hunt?" I bounced on my feet, unable to contain my delight. «Scavenger hunt and puzzle." Josh's cheek dimpled

Some people smiled with their mouths; Jules smiled with her whole face. The sparkle in her eyes, the adorable crinkle of her nose, the small crease in her cheek…watching her smile was like watching the night sky light up with stars.

Let me just start by saying: Ana Huang, you own my heart. Her books never fail to transport me out of real life and straight into a whirlwind of love, tension, and slow-burn romance—and Twisted Hate was no exception.

Enemies to lovers? Check. Fiery chemistry? Check. Heartbreak that made me sob and question if I’d ever emotionally recover? Check, check, check. This book seriously traumatised me in the best way possible. I was not okay—and I loved every second of it.

It took me a while to finish, but not because it was slow. Life just got in the way (rude). Honestly, no complaints here. The characters? Iconic. The banter? Elite. The emotional damage? Worth it.

If you’re looking for a romance that will wreck you and make you smile through the tears, Twisted Hate is the one. I loved it so so much.

Five stars and a whole box of tissues. 💔💖

I love how these two were just mirrors of each other. you could tell they spent all that time hating each other because it was straight up seeing the best, the bad, and the ugly of them reflected in another person.

It was really engaging, heartbreaking, and somehow lovely story, in all aspects, the romance, the individual arcs, and the big conflict.

I get why some people don't particularly like what Josh did but also different from Rhys and Alex, who are masters of putting a front and overthink everything, Josh is hotheaded, so i get how he ended up doing what he did, and the thing about these two in comparison to other couple these two really know each other so well, they truly know how to hurt each other badly, and yeah these two were the most realistic, which a good and a bad thing.

the .25 disappeared because I truly believe it was a little unbalanced the hurting each other bad for me.

4.75 🌟

I loved this!!!! The fact that they’re the most ordinary characters (as in not a billionaire, queen, influencer etc) and they had such a great and interesting story amazed me. I loved the chemistry! It could be your typical enemies to lovers book but if you don’t overthink it, it’s a great read. 

PLUS the bickering are actually bickers and banters are actually banters, it was funny for me! 

+ 4.5 because the sudden transition to x-scenes are a little random sometimes

what the flip, Josh. That is NOT how you react to Jules revealing the truth and apologizing.

This book was so good i also cried during this

the only thing that stopped this book from being perfect was Jules’ backstory. It facilitates the classic “miscommunication” conflict that always appears at the end of romance books, but her history just wasn’t entertaining or interesting, so I don’t think it really added anything to the story. But the whole lovers to enemies relationship really helped the plot for me.

I really like this book for the most parts, huge upgrade from twisted games,  because rhys bothered the sh*t of it me, but the end with josh f*cking jules and then being like yeah I lied felt way to much like r*pe for me, to be able to be happy about them getting together in the end. But Alex my forever king lol

D. D.

The enemies to lovers, the spice, the story! Ana Huang knows what she does and she does it gooddddd!!!!

Femke

By far my favorite book of the series, something about enemies to lovers just hits every time. Honesty, love how they both suit each other despite their misunderstanding leading to hating each other to begin with. 

lily

So far this was my favourite book out of the series. I loved the story. It hurt me and fixed me again. I can’t describe it any better, but everything that happens in this part of the series was just extraordinary.

It is everything u need in a book all the tropes i dream of combined in one precious book.

Lois

Needed an airplane book and this served me well for my 10hr flights 😂 easy read but was so conscious of sitting in between my mother and sister, and then whoever was behind me if they ever decided they wanted to be nosy and see my iPad screen. Plot wise, i like it better than book 1 and pretty equal on it to book 2? Like for 2 (supposedly) smart rational people, the conflict they had??? Lmfao. Lmfao. Anyway now i feel too far deep and i should just push on and finish the series 😪

i feel dirty 🙁

ranking so far: 2 1 3 

At first, "Twisted Hate" started off a bit slow, and I struggled to get into it. The initial chapters, while crucial for setting up the story, felt somewhat sluggish. However, once I reached about the 10-15 chapter mark, the pace picked up, and I found myself fully engrossed in the narrative.

To my surprise, I ended up enjoying this book far more than I anticipated. Ana Huang crafts a compelling story with richly developed characters. Josh, in particular, quickly became a favorite of mine. His dynamic with Jules, filled with witty banter and palpable tension, added a delightful spark to the story.

would have given it 3 stars if it wasn’t for how heinous chapter 46 was. honestly think it needs a trigger warning for SA (which the author i think included? can’t remember). it was absolutely unnecessary to the plot and did a huge freaking disservice to one of the characters, and it was hardly acknowledged at all how reprehensible it was. the rest of the book was just kinda meh.

Sarah

This book has me question if I like Josh or No😭 the book was so realistic, and Jules being boss girl 💅🏼 Never gonna forgive Josh though, man put her in a very difficult position, but the groveling was worth it my babies deserve everything!

Mpho

I wish that they were actual enemies to lovers but overall a good read I feel like it was more like banter than actual enemies

I honestly didn’t like Jules or Josh in the other books, but they definitely grew on me through this book! I felt like it was a tiny bit slower moving than the others and took me longer to read… but still good!

Tavia Milburn

I’m so in love with the series and very excited to read the last book of the series. This book didn’t once again disappointed me!
