King of Sloth

Originally self-published, Ana Huang is a prolific romance author who quickly gained prominence on “BookTok” on TikTok in 2022 with the release of her Twisted series, which follows four female friends and their dramatic romances with wealthy businessmen. Though Huang dabbles in various subgenres of romance, she is best known for her dark and spicy romances. Key components of most of her works include morally gray male love interests, dangerous or criminal subplots, and explicit sexual content. She also focuses on crafting stories that are dedicated to inclusivity and diversity. As an Asian American, Huang makes it a point to feature Asian American characters throughout her novels, such as Kai Young from King of Wrath and Josh Chen from Twisted Hate.

Huang’s rise to massive popularity began on TikTok when her Twisted series became a viral phenomenon. The immense popularity of her book gained the attention of Bloom Books, an imprint of Sourcebooks, which traditionally republished her Twisted series and has continued to publish her new releases since 2022. Huang’s published works include the If Love quartet—If We Ever Meet Again (2020), If the Sun Never Sets (2020), If Love Had a Price (2020), and If We Were Perfect (2020).
