Alexis Adaire Books in Order

How to Start Reading Alexis Adaire

Alexis Adaire has built a massive library of steamy, character-driven contemporary and science-fiction romance novels since launching her career in 2013. With over a dozen distinct series ranging from billionaire-employee dynamics to extraterrestrial romance, knowing where to start can feel overwhelming. Fortunately, Adaire's books can be grouped into two primary styles: continuous, serialized stories that follow a single couple across multiple books, and thematic, shared-world collections where each installment features a different couple and can be read as a standalone.

Depending on what romance subgenres you prefer, we recommend three distinct entry pathways:

• The Billionaire Serial Route (Recommended): Start with the complete 6-book Forced to Bloom series. This is one of Adaire's most popular works and follows the self-discovery and sizzling relationship of a curvy heroine, Rachel Malinsky, and a demanding billionaire. Because this is a continuous storyline, you must read books 1 through 6 in chronological order.
• The Sci-Fi Romance Route: If you prefer alien abduction tropes with alpha protective heroes, begin with the Probed series. Starting with The Abduction (2013), this three-part serial is a quick, highly addictive read.
• The Contemporary Thematic Route: If you prefer standalone stories where each book features a new couple, jump straight to the Flirty Fitness or The Matchmaker series. These contemporary romance novels can be read in any order, although starting with book 1 of each provides a fun, cohesive feel of their shared settings.

Thematic Series vs. Serialized Stories

When planning your reading list, it is critical to distinguish between Adaire's serialized series and her thematic collections. Reading a serialized series out of order will ruin the narrative progression, while thematic collections offer maximum reading flexibility.

The Serialized Romances (Read in Order)

These series follow a single couple's evolving relationship across multiple volumes. To get the full story, read these in strict numerical sequence:

• Probed Series: A three-book sci-fi romance narrative following an extraterrestrial encounter.
• Forced to Bloom Series: A six-book serial detailing Rachel and her billionaire partner.
• The Billionaires' Playmate (Executive Sweet) Series: A seven-book serial following Chelsea Broussard's unconventional relationship.
• Sex Education: A Woman's Awakening Series: A five-part serialized journey of personal and sensual discovery.
• Her Harem Series: A two-part reverse harem serial (composed of Her Harem and its direct sequel, Saving Her Harem).

The Thematic Collections (Can Be Read as Standalones)

In these collections, the books share a common theme, setting, or framing device (such as a local fitness center, a group of cowboys, or a holiday cabin), but each book stands alone with its own central couple. While you can read them in any order, reading them in publication order is recommended to catch subtle background cameos or recurring side characters:

• The Cocktail Girls: A massive 16-book series named after popular drinks.
• Big Sky: An 11-book cowboy romance series set in a rural, western backdrop.
• The Matchmaker: A 14-book series centered around letters sent to various love interests (e.g., Dear Mr. Firefighter).
• Flirty Fitness: An 11-book series revolving around gym-based romances.
• Fireworks: A 10-book summer holiday romance series.
• The May Flowers: A 10-book spring-themed romance series.
• Spring Breakers: A 7-book vacation-themed romance series.
• Mountain Man: A 4-book cozy, winter-themed holiday romance series.
• Hollywood Bad Boys Club: A 4-book series focusing on high-profile celebrity bachelors.
