Julia Sykes | 17 comments I need help creating a series, please. My books are interconnected standalone novels, and I have decided to group them together in a clear suggested reading order. Assistance is much appreciated.

The following books should be added to the "Captive" series:
#1 Sweet Captivity
#1.5 Claiming My Sweet Captive
(If possible, #1.75. Stolen Innocence is the optional prequel to Stealing Beauty. Someone has added the designation "Stolen" series to these two titles. This is incorrect and needs to be removed. Stolen Innocence)
#2 Stealing Beauty
#2.5 Captive Ever After
#3 Pretty Hostage
#4 Kingpin's Property

Thank you!

Olivia (livka) | 7926 comments There is a librarian note on the first book from staff:
'Book is standalone. Do NOT add to any series. Author has specified.'
I would say in this case, that you should contact support, but...

Nevertheless, someone created a series, but it needs some corrections.

Could you please clarify how the books are connected?

Julia Sykes | 17 comments I'm not sure when or why that note was added to Sweet Captivity. I have always tried to clearly state when my books can be read as standalone novels, and there was an issue in the past with someone putting that book in the wrong series, and it affected my Amazon product pages. That might be when the note was added.

Recently, I have decided to group these books into a suggested reading order under the "Captive" series on Goodreads to prevent this issue from occurring again.

To clarify how the books are connected:
#1 Sweet Captivity is a standalone dark romance told from Samantha's point of view.
#1.5 Claiming My Sweet Captive is the same story told from Andrés' point of view.
#2 Stealing Beauty is a standalone romance novel about Andrés' sister, Valentina.
#2.5 Captive Ever After catches up with previous characters in the series, and it is not a standalone.
#3 Pretty Hostage is a standalone romance novel that follows characters who were secondary in Stealing Beauty.
#4 Kingpin's Property is also a standalone romance novel that follows secondary characters from previous books.

Please let me know if you have further questions. Any help is much appreciated!
