Anna Harding writes dark romance that cuts deep—psychological stories rooted in pain, power, and obsession. Her work explores the cost of survival, the pull of forbidden desire, and the emotional complexity of characters who live in a morally grey world. With a literary sensibility and an unflinching gaze, Anna crafts narratives that are as emotionally layered as they are addictive.

Her heroines are flawed, her anti-heroes dangerous, and her stories unapologetically intense.

Anna lives in the UK, teaches English Literature, doesn’t believe in housework, doesn’t believe in dieting and sometimes annoys the neighbours by yodelling. She likes walking her dog and also creates poetry under a different name.
Anna believes all her characters deserve a

When Aurelio's beloved wife is insulted in a bar...

Couldn’t resist doing a final Valentine’s day bonus scene with Aurelio. I had dinner with a reader the other day and she told me she could guess my favourite character and yep, she was right. Though most of the feedback I get suggests Aurelio is number one for a lot of you too!

So here’s the bonus content. Spoilers for book 2 and beyond and trigger warnings for violence, torture and implied sexual

Murderous Secrets by Anna  Harding
“When we finally broke apart, I was breathless.
‘I liked that,’ I whispered.
He gave me a relieved smile. ‘I’ve wanted to do that since the first time I saw you.’
I couldn’t help but ask, ‘Why didn’t you?’
Nikolai looked straight at me, a mixture of tenderness and devilment dancing in his eyes. ‘I don’t rush into anything that means a lot to me.’
I caught my breath. ‘I…’
‘It was always going to happen, Isabella. You and me. I just needed to know we were both ready.”

Unlimited Power by Anna  Harding
“No wonder this man was tipped to be the next head of the Mafia. I doubted he even needed to raise a finger to torture things out of people. I’d tell him anything he wanted just for a smile from him.”

“He wanted me, ME to marry the cherished sister of the unhinged boss of the Bratva. I didn’t want my boss knowing what I did in bed and I sure as fuck didn’t want Simon Nemov knowing what I did to his sister in bed.”
Anna Harding, Dark Atonement

“She wasn’t a woman—she was a Goddess. And I’d bring down Heaven and Earth to make her mine.”
Anna Harding, Forbidden Love

“No way would I ever marry a girl of his choice. Some naïve little Russian virgin who’d run crying to her (and worse my) father if I did anything in bed to her outside the missionary position. I couldn’t think of anything I’d enjoy less.”
Anna Harding, Dark Atonement

Anna Harding, Dark Atonement

“Eloise I kill for a living. I kill for fun. I torture my enemies. I gut them. Then I come home to you and, fuck, I want to protect you. But the man you need protecting from most is your own husband.”
Anna Harding, Dark Atonement

“She was giving a brilliant performance of terror. The realism was far more erotic than the usual giggling in a dark room with a whore in slutty lingerie. I appreciated her attention to detail and I appreciated her acting ability. This was going to be one hell of a fuck.”
Anna Harding

“Maybe if I’d been older, with more experience, or a better understanding of how relationships actually worked, things might have played out differently. But I was a simple man. I knew right from wrong, and I expected my future wife to know it too.”
Anna Harding, Unlimited Power
