Reading Order

 This is a popular question!

I have several series, each series can be read in any order, they are not interlinking. Having said that if you want to have the full experience of the Red & Black world this is my recommended order.

THIS LOVE set of four books, a prequel (full novel) and a trilogy: FIVE CHANCES, THIS LOVE, THIS LOVE Always, THIS LOVE Forever.

Then move on to the record label series: Charcoal Notes, Crimson Melodies, Raven Acoustics, Cardinal Lyrics, Onyx Keys, Vermillion Chords, Inky Rhapsodies, Magenta Symphonies, and White Wedding.

For The Turners of Copper Island: Reckless Kiss, Stolen Kiss, Lipstick Kiss, and Electric Kiss.

For The Devoted Men series: Charming Olivia, Loving Lilly, and Tempting Angie.

For The Talbot Girls: Stranded at New Year, His Christmas Surprise, Under the Mistletoe, Snowflakes at Dawn, and A Holiday Wish.

For the Jackson’s Bay mini series: Sunshine & Lightning, High Heels & Summer Mornings, Wishes & Promises, Strangers & Heroes, Sister & Brothers, and Flashbulbs and Champagne.

For standalone books, they can be read in any order: The Stranger’s Voice, The Girl Upstairs, Hollywood Spotlight, and Serenade. The Stranger’s Voice is completely standalone, no one in that books appears anywhere else. The Girl Upstairs is book one in a soon to be series of standalone small town rom coms based in the same small town. Hollywood Spotlight is Whitney’s story who is Jude North’s make up artist (Jude North’s story is Cardinal Lyrics in the Red & Black series). Serenade is Becky’s story who is from the Red & Black series. So while some of these will have cross over you can read them at any time.

That’s not to say there is not any crossover. Mickey appears in most books: The Devoted Men, THIS LOVE series, Red & Black series and in Serenade. His story is in Tempting Angie, but if you read about him elsewhere it won’t spoil his story. He kinda pops up.

Serenade is best read after the Red & Black series but isn’t vital.

The Red & Black series is best read after the THIS LOVE series but isn’t vital.
