Enemies to lovers, forbidden romance,  and single bed tropes are featured in this extra steamy romance. The characters really grew on me over the course of the story and their romance was spicy and sweet at the same time. I stayed up way too late to finish this one!

Man, this book had quite the hill to climb in my eyes. Jules and Josh are two of the most annoying characters I've ever read, so I'm thankful they stopped bickering relatively early in the story. Speaking of early on, Jules insults the size of Josh's genitals several times. A little odd already, but given that Josh is an Asian man, the comment becomes... racist? Bigoted? Whatever the proper term, it made me uncomfortable. All in all, I read this because I'm a completionist.

If there is one thing I love about Ana Huang’s romance novels, is that when the couple inevitably breaks up, they don’t spend CHAPTERS heart broken and angry. Twisted Hate is a classic enemies to lovers romance novel with the right amount of clapbacks, attitude and smut.

I’m glad we see Josh get the closure he deserves and his relationship with Alex recovers
