Reader FAQ
Find your first book, check the reading order, learn what Kindle+ covers, and get to know the free stories.
Where should I start?
For college sports romance, start with Late Ice (hockey) or Draw Control (women's lacrosse), or begin the men's lacrosse series with Short Side. For dark romance, start with Confession. For midlife women's fiction, start with The Prosecco Protocol.
Do I have to read the books in series order?
Each Grafton romance follows a different couple across the lacrosse and hockey programs. Holy Orders is best in series order. Mid-Life Escapes shares one universe across three sub-series; for the fullest arc, read The Prosecco Protocol first and The Keeper's Lie last, with The Rose Rescue Protocol between them. See the reading order.
Where can I read the Grafton short stories?
August 14, The Dedication, and The Belt Thing are free to read on this site. They are optional extras and read best after the related novel listed on each story page.
