Amo Jones Books in Order (Updated April 14, 2026)

Amo Jones is not an author you read best by dumping every title into one giant list and hoping for the best. Her catalog works better as a set of dark worlds: early biker and rockstar books, the Elite Kings Club universe, the Midnight Mayhem dark-circus books, a few standalone dark romances, and several newer series that branch in different directions. Her official “Amo Universe” page groups those worlds separately rather than presenting one seamless chronology, which is the biggest clue for how to approach her backlist.

So the right question is not just “What order were these published?” It is “Which Amo Jones lane do you want first?”

If you want one clean answer

For most readers, the safest route is:

1. Elite Kings Club
2. Midnight Mayhem
3. Carpe Noctem
4. Then sample the standalones and newer side series

That path keeps you in the darkest, most recognizable Amo Jones territory first, and it avoids starting with later books that assume you already like her style of secret societies, antiheroes, and morally wrecked romance. Her official site also frames War and His Queen inside an Elite Kings Club legacy context, which is one reason to leave Carpe Noctem until after EKC rather than using it as a first step.

Where new readers should actually start

1. Start with The Silver Swan if you want the series Amo Jones is most identified with. It opens Elite Kings Club, her longest and most visible dark secret-society run.
2. Start with In Peace Lies Havoc if you want a dark-circus world instead of school-and-society chaos. It opens Midnight Mayhem and gives you a cleaner entry if EKC’s continuity feels too sprawling.
3. Start with Sicko only if you want a standalone taste of her voice before committing to a full series. It is one of the clearest single-book entry points in the catalog.

Amo Jones books in order by world

Sinful Souls MC

1. Perilous Love (2015): Amo Jones’s earliest verified series opener, launching her catalog with a biker-romance setup that sits apart from the later secret-society books.
2. Intricate Love (2015): The second Sinful Souls MC novel, continuing the same MC world and best read after Perilous Love.
3. Tainted Love (2015): The third book in the trilogy and the natural end point for this early biker-romance lane.

Devil’s Own

1. One Hundred & Thirty-six Scars (2016): The entry point for this dark series and the first book in the Devil’s Own sequence.
2. Hellraiser (2016): The second book, continuing the same destructive-romance atmosphere rather than resetting into a separate world.
3. Razing Grace: Part 1 (2016): A split-volume third arc that needs to be read after the first two books to land properly.
4. Razing Grace: Part 2 (2017): The continuation of the previous installment, completing that broken-in-two section of the series.
5. The Devil’s Match (2018): The fifth Devil’s Own book and the proper final stop in the current sequence.

Westbeach

1. Losing Traction (2016): A girl-racer and rockstar romance about a past relationship colliding with tour life, and the right place to start this more contemporary early Amo Jones series.
2. F*cker (2016): A friends-to-lovers, rockstar-focused follow-up built around Ryker and Bryleigh, continuing the Westbeach world rather than starting fresh.

Elite Kings Club

1. The Silver Swan (2017): The true gateway into Amo Jones’s best-known universe, introducing Madison and the Elite Kings Club’s secret-society darkness.
2. The Broken Puppet (2017): A direct continuation of the EKC unraveling, making it a poor jumping-on point but a strong second book.
3. Tacet a Mortuis (2018): The third core EKC novel, escalating the series’ family lies, power plays, and identity fractures.
4. Malum: Part 1 (2019): The beginning of a two-part fourth arc inside the series, so it should never be read out of sequence.
5. Malum: Part 2 (2019): The second half of the Malum storyline and the required follow-up to part one.
6. Sancte Diaboli: Part One (2021): The sixth EKC entry, reopening the world through another split story that assumes deep familiarity with the earlier books.
7. Sancte Diaboli: Part Two (2021): The continuation of the previous volume, closing that two-part section of the Elite Kings story.
8. Ruined Castles (2021): The eighth main EKC book, positioned as the latest currently listed installment in the series and best read only after the rest.

Crowned Duet

1. Crowned by Hate (2017): A dark billionaire romance involving the U.S. president’s daughter and a forced marriage, opening this shorter duet.
2. Crowned by Fate (2020): The concluding half of the duet, built around blurred loyalties and the fallout from the first book’s twisted setup.

Standalone dark romances

1. Flip Trick (2018): A standalone novel outside the named series, best treated as a separate read rather than slotted into one of the larger universes.
2. Manik (2018): Another standalone dark romance and one of Amo Jones’s better-known non-series titles.
3. Sicko (2020): A major standalone entry point for readers who want her tone in a single book before tackling a long series.
4. Antichrist (2022): A later standalone dark romance, also separate from the main named series on the current bibliography pages.

Midnight Mayhem

1. In Peace Lies Havoc (2019): The first Midnight Mayhem novel, built around a dark-circus world, stalking, ballet, and the Brothers of Kiznitch.
2. In Fury Lies Mischief (2020): A possessive, angsty second book that deepens the same Midnight Mayhem environment and should be read in order.
3. In Silence She Screams (2021): The third book, leaning into MMF dynamics and the series’ dollhouse-and-performance nightmare aesthetic.
4. In Chaos We Reign (2022): The fourth current Midnight Mayhem novel and the best final stop for readers finishing this dark-circus run.

Wolfpack MC

1. Wicked (2022): A mafia-princess, enemies-to-lovers novel where MC and mafia worlds collide, currently listed by Fantastic Fiction as a one-book Wolfpack MC series and by Amo Jones’s site as a standalone. That makes it safest to treat as a separate side read for now.

Aphotic Waters

1. Boneyard Tides (2023): The opening Aphotic Waters book and the start of another newer dark-romance branch.
2. Phantom Crush (2023): The second Aphotic Waters title, intended to follow Boneyard Tides within the same series.

Lord of Rathe

Co-written with Meagan Brandy

1. Fate of a Royal (2023): The first confirmed book in this coauthored fantasy-romance series.
2. Fate of a Faux (2023): The second book, continuing the same Rathe storyline and not designed as a fresh entry point.
3. Mate of a Monster (2026): Fantastic Fiction lists this as book three of Lord of Rathe, so that is the most stable series order to follow at the moment.

Carpe Noctem

1. War and His Queen (2024): A forbidden dark romance that the official site explicitly ties to the legacy of the Elite Kings Club, making it a better post-EKC read than a starting point.
2. Priest and His Anarchist (2025): A secret-society enemies-to-lovers story centered on Priest Hayes and Luna Nox, continuing the Carpe Noctem branch.

Dark Outlaw

My Sweet Cyanide (2025): Book one of the Dark Outlaw series, an MC romance set in New Zealand that loops back to Westbeach through the Woodsmen MC.

Cursed Lovers Duet

1. Playhouse (2026): The first Cursed Lovers Duet book, a reverse-age-gap dark romance centered on a marriage, a younger famous snowboarder, and a winter-island setting.
2. Gravehouse (2026): The second Cursed Lovers Duet book, listed by Fantastic Fiction as the direct follow-up to Playhouse.

The reading order that makes the most sense

Amo Jones has too many tonal pivots for a single universal answer, but these routes work well.

Route 1: the signature Amo Jones path

1. The Silver Swan
2. The Broken Puppet
3. Tacet a Mortuis
4. Malum: Part 1
5. Malum: Part 2
6. Sancte Diaboli: Part One
7. Sancte Diaboli: Part Two
8. Ruined Castles
9. In Peace Lies Havoc
10. In Fury Lies Mischief
11. In Silence She Screams
12. In Chaos We Reign
13. War and His Queen
14. Priest and His Anarchist

This is the best route for readers coming specifically for her darkest secret-society material.

Route 2: the easier entry path

1. Sicko
2. Manik
3. Crowned by Hate
4. Crowned by Fate
5. In Peace Lies Havoc

This works better for readers who want to test her voice before committing to the longest series.

Route 3: the newer-branch path

1. Boneyard Tides
2. Phantom Crush
3. War and His Queen
4. Priest and His Anarchist
5. My Sweet Cyanide
6. Playhouse
7. Gravehouse

This route is useful if you mainly want her more recent catalog rather than the older EKC foundation.

Does Amo Jones need chronological order?

Not really. Publication order inside each series is the real rule that matters. The larger bibliography is world-based rather than neatly chronological, and the official universe page reinforces that by grouping books into branded clusters instead of one master timeline. So for this author, “publication order within a series” is the practical reading order.

Latest release status

The newest solo Amo Jones releases listed on Fantastic Fiction are Playhouse in January 2026 and Gravehouse in March 2026, both in the Cursed Lovers Duet. Fantastic Fiction also lists a coauthored 2026 fantasy title in the Lord of Rathe line, while the broader 2026 coauthored metadata is somewhat inconsistent across retailer listings, so the safest solo-current answer is the Cursed Lovers Duet.

Final recommendation

If you want the Amo Jones experience most readers mean when they recommend her, begin with The Silver Swan and stay with Elite Kings Club until Ruined Castles. Then move into Midnight Mayhem. That is the clearest route through her signature darkness. If that feels too intense for a first step, try Sicko as a standalone sampler and then decide which world you want next.
