Carmen Jenner Books in Order

Where to Start with Carmen Jenner

Carmen Jenner writes across several subgenres of romance, meaning your perfect starting point depends entirely on what flavor of romance you prefer. If you want her signature small-town feel mixed with biker grit, start with her debut novel, Welcome to Sugartown. If you prefer high-adrenaline, dark, and protective motorcycle club romance, head straight to Kick, the first book in the Savage Saints MC series. For readers looking for a heart-wrenching, emotional contemporary romance, Harley & Rose is a fan-favorite friends-to-lovers standalone that later grew into a duet. Finally, if you love rugged cowboys and ranch settings, Sweet and Wild (also published as Wild Love) is the perfect introduction to her cowboy romances.

The Sugartown Series Reading Order

The Sugartown series is where it all began for Jenner in 2013. Set in a small Australian town, this series blends humor, passion, and small-town secrets. While the books are interconnected and feature overlapping characters, they can be read as standalone stories. However, reading them in order provides the best experience as you watch the community and relationships evolve.

1. Welcome to Sugartown (2013) - Introduces Ana Belle and Elijah Cade.
2. Enjoy Your Stay (2014)
3. Greetings from Sugartown (2014)
4. Now Leaving Sugartown (2015)

Savage Saints MC Series Reading Order

If you love dark, gritty motorcycle club romances with protective antiheroes and fierce heroines, the Savage Saints MC series is Jenner's flagship series in this genre. Unlike Sugartown, it is highly recommended to read these in order due to the overarching club politics and ongoing character development. Note that a festive holiday novella fits neatly between books two and three.

1. Kick (2015)
2. Tank (2015)
3. A Savage Saints MC Xmas (2017) - Holiday Novella (Book 2.5)
4. Jett (2020)
5. Grim (2022)
