All the books in Ana Huang’s King of Series are interconnected standalones..

Gods of the Game Series by Ana Huang :

1. The Striker by Ana Huang (God of The Games #1)
2. The Defender by Ana Huang (God of The Games #2)
3. The Keeper by Ana Huang (God of The Games #1)

And, now we have Ana Huang’s New series, a sports romance series which will have three books. The first one is The Striker which is about a British footballer Asher Donovan and a former ballerina Scarlett DuBois, who happens to be Asher’s biggest rival’s sister. Both of them are forced to train together in their off season because of losing their last game and Scarlett is assigned to be the trainer.

If training with his rival wasn’t enough pain to survive the summer slowly falling for Scarlett was way more painful because she was off limits. But, it’s Ana’s classic forbidden love with slow burn with reverse grumpy x sunshine. So, if you have read the previous books you can guess what can happen.

The 2nd one, The defender is about scarlet’s brother, Vincent DuBois captain of Blackcastle Football Club. Who has to secretly share a flat with his coach’s daughter and sister’s best friend, Brooklyn Armstrong, a sports nutritionist. If the first book was painful because of Ana Huang’s classic forbidden and forced proximity setting we can pretty much guess how much fun this will be when they have to live together ! I have not read the book yet but I am planning to and will definitely share the review here on my blog and goodreads, so check out my book reviews section and maybe connect on goodreads and socials so we can talk about this <3.

The 3rd and final one in Ana Huang’s Gods of the Game series is titled The Keeper. There is no official information on this book but it will be out on October 1,2026. And Ana Huang readers are predicting this will be about Asher’s and Scarllet’s friends Noah and Carina as they were mentioned in book 1. I will keep on updating the information here whenever something drops.

My Ana Huang order and favorites :

Like every book tok readers I started with the twisted series back in July 2022 and I miss them so much I think it’s time for a reread. Even though I loved and enjoyed all the books equally, I think twisted love and twisted hate are my favorite from the twisted series. 

Then I read the King of Sin series whenever a new one was released and King of Greed was one of my most anticipated books of this year (You can read my review here). I enjoyed this series too but not as much as the twisted series and I almost dnf’d King of Pride but I went back and finished it. Last but not least I devoured King of Greed despite reading some negative reviews before starting the book but overall I liked the series and hope it gets better as I’m planning to read the rest of the books as well.

*Note: I am only mentioning the suggested reading orders and my reading guide with how the books are connected but not the blurb or summary of each book. But I’m planning to post my reviews one by one that will contain the summary + my thoughts so, check out my goodreads and keep an eye on my blog :)*
