The Life of Anna: The Complete Dark Story Kindle Edition

by Marissa Honeycutt (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 3,202 ratings
A dark, twisted, depraved story of hope and love.

Anna’s entire life was planned out before she was born. Her entire purpose is to serve those in control and be the perfect tool to control everyone around them. One man will seek to take her unique gifts into himself and become both the source of power and the hand that wields it.

But Anna has a vision of a man. A man whom her Master is determined to discover and destroy. A man who will change Anna's life forever.

The Life of Anna follows the naive and innocent Anna as she enters a dark world of greed, politics, and an evil puppet master who pulls the strings to her world. And beyond.

Readers be warned, for this journey is not for the faint of heart. You are about to venture into a world of dark plots, sinister villains, and deeply erotic taboo encounters.

Are you brave enough to enter the Life of Anna?

What Readers are saying about The Life of Anna:

“Holy f*%#! ... the author, has quite the imagination. This series is dark, darker than dark, and disturbing, an unbelievable emotional roller coaster ride with strong characters in every twist and turn and you can't help but hold on to the ride.”

“This story has changed the definition of dark erotica for me.”

“I literally could not put this book down.”

“The Life of Anna The Complete Story is the best story I've ever read. Marissa Honeycutt takes you on an intense emotional roller coaster that is Anna's life. This book is the most intense, thrilling, and addictive book I've had the privilege of reading.”

Author of Gut-Wrenching Darkness

"If Stephen King got together with Tom Clancy and wrote an erotica book...,"

...is how Marissa describes her books when asked. She doesn't seek to write any particular genre, style, or length, only following her gut instincts and the lead of her characters. The Life of Anna crosses many genre lines including erotica, suspense, psychological thriller, horror, political conspiracy, paranormal, and romance. Marissa's story of Anna began with a dream about being kidnapped with Adam Savage from Mythbusters (Yes, really). Over the next year and a half, it morphed into the story that is now known as "The Life of Anna." She has also published Distorted Hope, which is based on her kidnapped dream. Abandoned Grace was published last year as a side story to The Life of Anna.

Marissa stays busy running her household, fending off two adorable kittens, and interacting with her readers on social media. She is a self-proclaimed geek and is striving to learn the basics of graphic design. She is also actively pursuing a more natural lifestyle, which includes essential oils, natural cleaning products, and whole, organic foods. Marissa's addictions include the Science and History Channels, anything chocolate mint, vintage books, cute kitty cats and laughter.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the faint hearted but a MUST read!
    Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2025

    The Life of Anna kept being recommended over and over as one of the darkest, most chilling and fkd up beyond belief stories, and it didn't disappoint. Any sexual encounter you can think of between persons was mentioned in this book. Along with that, an insane amount of tortue and abuse no one could live from.

    I was very intrigued in the beginning , especially at the different types of rituals and how they're performed. I am usually not one for stories that are too far out there. I like more scenarios that can actually happen or can be believed. Later on, there are some things that made me go "hrm". Between there being Immortals and the power of essence and sacrifices, I was worried it was going to lose me. But the way it was written, it wouldn't be surprising if there may be a little truth to these situations. I also like to delve deeper into conspiracy like ordeals and it honestly doesn't seem that far off with adrenochrome talk and the like.

    I was glad it ended up being a happy ending. I do love books that don't give you that satisfaction, but Anna pulls you in with her innocence, and you fall in love with her, just as many do in this book.

    I love using KU, but I do have a list of books that I WILL purchase in black and white because I deem them absolutely 100% worthy of not only being displayed on my bookshelf but also so I can read them again and again... This is one of those books. I read all 5 books, over 1000 pages, in 30 days and will do it again. I will also be changing out more books by Marissa Honeycutt!

    Titles can be deceiving. While this is labeled as a dark romance the true story is tragically beautiful. Couldn't put it down. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for something that goes beyond dark but always check your triggers first as this one has many!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A ridiculous roller coaster
    Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This book technically is 5 separate books. All connected. All horrible and torcherous. Every happy moment will be smacked from your mind over and over and over.
    I fully intended to rate this 2-3 stars. I almost DNF multiple times. I decided to hate read it to completion.

    Then I realized something. The author pulled no punches. She CLEARLY warns you in the beginning. Is the book well written? Absolutely. Is there character development and plot? Yes. It's just a constant emotional train wreck.

    The ending is why this is a 4-star book. It wraps up everything pretty nicely. I personally would have liked the epilogue to be much longer for a 2,000-page book. Especially after the misery the author puts you through for days and days.

    If you have no triggers, read this book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 🔥 Absolutely Amazing! Perfect for fans of Dark and Twisted reads! 🔥
    Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2018

    I have to say that I read part 1 of this series a while ago and it keep popping up in my mind that I had to get the rest of the series. Unfortunately, some retailers have started to remove the books so if you are interested in reading this Dark, Twisted, Depraved story you better grab it while you can. You have to take this author's warning seriously! I am a huge dark fan and this will push every limit you have.

    ENSLAVED – book 1
    Anna’s parents were killed when she was a young girl and her guardian Jack took her in and he and Devin began to condition her for a life as a sex slave. She is now a fearful shell of a person. Her only desire is to please her masters in an attempt to avoid, or minimize, the sadistic punishments that are frequently inflicted upon her. She was in effect brainwashed by the two men. This is a complex beginning to the series with paranormal elements and a complete powerful secret society ruled by powerful men. Three of these men are Wilhelm and his sons, Alex and Kurt who see Anna as something special but she is under Devin’s control. There are many secrets and confusing elements in the first book but the last ritual scene was powerful and keep me interested in reading more.

    ENTWINED – Book 2
    This book is complex. A part of you is morbidly fascinated by the events and another part is horrified that someone could abuse a young girl in that manner. I am hoping that Alex is able to protect Anna before it’s too late, but since there are 3 more books in the journey it is unlikely. It seems like every guy she comes in contact with treats her badly.

    EMBRACED - Book 3
    This book is a bit lighter if that is possible. Devin is becoming more powerful, but Alex is trying hard to be able to save Anna. We are able to understand the Brotherhood and Anna’s background now. There seem to be many men that Anna falls for, but in the end her ‘training’ is strong and she still views herself as a slave.

    ENSNARED – Book 4
    We pick up two years after book 3 ended, Anna exists in a drug-induced haze now that Alex has disappeared. Devin controls the drugs which he uses to control Anna. When Devin needs her back he weans her from the drugs and uses other severe methods to keep her in line. She is able to begin dancing again and finds some happiness, but things are not better for her yet.

    EMERGED - Book 5
    If you're made it this far you will be thrilled to finally get an HEA! Finally, things take a turn and the good guys are able to take out the evil. It was a perfect ending to a twisted series. Don’t get me wrong it wasn’t easy and straight forward and at times I wasn’t sure it was going to happen, but it was amazing. I would have liked to see Devin suffer more, but after the years of abuse he lead nothing could have evened the scales so at least he finally is gone.

    This is one of my all time favorite dark series and I hope the author continues to write in this genre!

    Hero 5 | Heroine 5 | Plot 5 | Writing Style 5 | Steam 5 | Romance 4 | Angst-Suspense 4 | Darkness 5 | Humor 1 | Secondary Characters 5 | Drama-Conflict 5 | Mystery 5 | Twists 5 | Action 5 | Pacing Steady |

    5.0 out of 5 stars WOW! Very dark but what a great story!
    Reviewed in Canada on December 7, 2016

    WOW! I do not know where she came up with this story. The context is very dark but the story and characters were amazing. Anna is so strong to survive everything that happened to her. To have so much taken away from her and be treated the way she was was horrific. I was sad, angry and completely devastated at certain points during the series. But then you had all of Anna's friends who loved her and tried to protect her that made up for all the darkness in the book. I could not put it down. This book is not for everyone. But if you love a great dark romance with strong characters and a HEA, then you have to read this book.

    This was unbelievably dark, bottom of the ocean black, and absolutely wonderful. I became so emotionally invested in the FMC by book 4 there were times I cried, and I never cry when reading. Wonderfully imaginative story, genuinely impressive amount of ways to torture (hey Marissa, you okay?), and such a satisfying ending. Elements of almost all genres, solid writing, cohesive story. This book is not for you if you are soft hearted or easily nauseated, if you have any triggers, this book will at some point hit them. But if you want a super dark but gratifying read with a HEA then absolutely read this series.
