My hopes with being a new indie author, is that I find my tribe of readers. The loyal ones who flood my DMs with theories of who's getting the next book or who's getting paired with who. With me only having two books published, I know it's tempting for a reader to pick up my newest release. But this series, specifically the first two books are heavily, and I mean heavily, interconnected.
Where to start:
The Night We Met is book 1, which follows Kamryn, Mason, and Liam. While this is not a love triangle, Kamryn does date and fall in love with both of the men. I know most readers have their own definition for what a love triangle is. But in this instance, neither Mason nor Liam fight for Kamryn when she's with either of them. But, how? The relationships between Kamryn and Mason then Kamryn and Liam happen at different times in her life.
Once The Night We Met ends, I paved the way for book 2. In book 1 we saw how a specific event was the sort of catalyst for both Kamryn and Emily. Of the two books, I feel Make It Without You is my highest tearjerker. Let's ignore that I've only released two books that made me cry while writing them and my readers cry while reading. Book 2 was definitely an "all gas, no breaks" in terms of the emotions.
Book 2 is Emily's book. When I wrote book 1 and her book, I made sure not to show too much of other couples as I want their books to focus on them. So going into this, Emily's story needed to be front and center. This book follows, James, Emily, and Adam. If you know how book 1 played out, you'll also know that this is so far from a love triangle. I've been asked countless times if I regret writing that scene. You know the one. And I teeter on the 'yes' and 'no' when someone asks me. As much as I hate to say it, I feel the characters were better off for that writing choice.
Both of these books do end in well-deserved HEAs. I know a lot of readers have that question.
