Works in sequence
The core reading experience consists of the main shared-world romances that establish and extend the principal Wakan and Royaume connections. Part of Your World, Yours Truly, and Just for the Summer provide the clearest path for readers who want the central sequence without first adding shorter or more adjacent material.[6-8]
All Roads Lead to Here and The Situationship are supplementary works that expand the same world through characters and events connected to the main sequence, but they are not required before starting the central romances. They are most useful for readers who want fuller context around Derek, Nikki, Emma, Maddy, and the Wakan network.[5][9]
Readers seeking the fullest version of the series should include both supplementary works,[5][9] while new readers who want the most direct route may begin with the main novels.[6-8]
1. All Roads Lead to Here
All Roads Lead to Here, available after subscribing to its author’s mailing list,[19] is an introductory linked story centered on Derek Montgomery and Nikki, also known as Lola. Set in a Doctors Without Borders camp in Cambodia after Typhoon Channary, it brings together a plastic surgeon and a shelter volunteer through a medical emergency.[5]
Its place in the series gives context for Derek’s later absence from the Montgomery family’s expected path.[5]
2. Part of Your World
Part of Your World (2022)[10-12] is the main entry point into the series. It follows Alexis Montgomery, an emergency room doctor under intense pressure from both family and professional sources, and Daniel Grant, a carpenter and property manager in Wakan.[6]
This novel establishes the contrast between Alexis’s hospital life and Daniel’s small-town community, while also introducing relationships and settings that recur later.[6]
3. Yours Truly
Yours Truly (2023)[13-15] shifts focus to Briana Ortiz, Alexis’s friend and colleague at Royaume Northwestern Hospital, and Jacob Maddox, a new doctor navigating an uneasy start at the hospital. This book stands on its own as their romance.[7]
Its hospital setting, friendship network, and visit to Wakan make it more rewarding after Part of Your World.[7]
4. Just for the Summer
Just for the Summer (2024)[16-18] widens the series beyond Royaume and the earlier pairings while retaining Wakan as an important point of connection. It follows Justin Dahl and Emma, a travel nurse, as they bond over a shared pattern in their past relationships.[8]
This book brings Emma into Daniel’s extended family context and develops another strand of the shared world.[8]
5. The Situationship
The Situationship (2024)[4] centers on Maddy, Emma’s best friend, during the period when Emma is staying in Wakan and dealing with difficult family revelations. Its focus is narrower than the main novels, following Maddy’s connection with Doug and the local texture of Wakan.[9]
It is most useful for readers who want fuller coverage of the characters surrounding Just for the Summer.[9]
