PNR Series & Reading Order: Elemental Mysteries / Elemental World by Elizabeth Hunter

I love this series! It’s an intelligent, understated paranormal (vampire) romance series, but it definitely has all of the winning elements. The writing is fantastic and the storyline is intriguing and kept me glued to my kindle. The characters are brilliant (seriously – I have mad love for pretty much everybody), and the dialogue is sharp and witty. There is action, humour, gorgeous romance and general vampire-powered-awesomeness all set within a brilliantly developed, original and sophisticated paranormal world. An all-time favourite!

It all starts with the four Elemental Mysteries books which is the story of the same couple – Beatrice and Giovanni – with one over-arching storyline that is complete, so you can finish the series there. But you won’t want to, because there are then spin-off standalones and series featuring characters introduced in the first books. All of the books should be read in order.

Review
Buy: Amazon
This is a short fiction ANTHOLOGY for Giovanni and Beatrice. It includes a previously published novella (Lost Letters and Christmas Lights), as well as new fiction (Finding Richard, Desires of the Heart) and a few shorts that used to be on the author’s website. It is not a brand new novel, but it is new fiction that gives you a peek into the future of your favorite vampires.

The Elemental World

A spin off from Elemental Mysteries, these books tell the stories of characters introduced in the the original books. The timeline covers events during the Elemental Mysteries, and continues the overarching storyline forward into the future. These books should be read AFTER the four Elemental Mysteries books.
