B.A. Stretke Books in Order (Updated April 21, 2026)

B.A. Stretke is a prolific paranormal M/M romance author whose catalog is best read by series, not by one giant all-author master order.

The practical rule is simple: pick the line that matches your mood, then read that series in publication order, because later books usually assume you already know the world, the pack or coven structure, and at least some earlier relationships.

The best way to read B.A. Stretke

For most readers, these are the safest starting points:

• Best modern starting point: Rogue from Bay Harbor Wolves
• Best vampire-world starting point: Meant to Be from Pittsburgh Vampires
• Best older shifter starting point: Mine from Pack Rules

If you want the simplest recommendation, start with Bay Harbor Wolves if you want a cleaner modern entry, or Pittsburgh Vampires if you want the larger vampire side of the catalog first.

Reading order rules that actually help

• Read each named series in publication order.
• Do not jump into the middle of Pittsburgh Vampires, Vampires of Blood and Bones, or The Crimson Coven unless you are comfortable missing continuity.
• Treat smaller lines such as The Vampire’s Throne, Vampires of Charlotte, and The Vampire Fae of Acadia as easier self-contained entry points.
• The catalog is interconnected in mood and supernatural themes, but not every series requires you to read every previous series first.

Publication order by series

Bay Harbor Wolves

A strong modern entry point. This is one of the easiest B.A. Stretke series to begin with because the pack setup is clear and the reading order is straightforward.

1. Rogue (2020): Opens the Bay Harbor Wolves line and establishes the pack structure, making it the natural first stop for readers who want a clean introduction.
2. Alpha (2020): Builds directly on the first book’s pack hierarchy and shifts attention toward leadership-level stakes inside the same world.
3. Enforcer (2020): Moves the focus to a pack protector figure, deepening the internal politics and emotional structure of the series.
4. Beta (2021): Continues the same wolf-world continuity with another central relationship tied to the pack’s command chain.
5. Vampire (2021): Broadens the series by bringing vampire elements into what began as a wolf-centered line.
6. Behind the Moonlight (2021): Keeps the Bay Harbor setting active while expanding relationship and loyalty tensions around the pack.
7. The Omega Twins (2022): Pushes the series further into omega-focused dynamics while staying inside the established pack continuity.
8. Dominating The Wolf (2022): Continues the ongoing Bay Harbor character web with another romance shaped by authority and pack roles.
9. Sex and Suspicion (2025): Revives the line after a gap and signals that the series is still active rather than closed.
10. Fated To The Wolf (2025): Returns to the series’ fated-mate style while leaning on the world already built in earlier books.
11. The Healer and The Vampire (2025): Combines healing and vampire elements, showing how wide the Bay Harbor supernatural frame has become by this point.

Cincinnati Shifters

A shorter shifter line that is easier to sample without committing to one of the very long vampire series.

1. Werewolf Daddy (2022): Opens the Cincinnati line with a werewolf-centered setup and establishes the local tone of the series.
2. The Bear’s Mate (2022): Expands the supernatural mix by moving beyond wolves while keeping the same romance-forward structure.
3. The Vampire (2022): Brings vampire elements into the Cincinnati setting and widens the supernatural overlap.
4. The Lone Wolf (2023): Refocuses on a more isolated wolf-centered story within the same regional continuity.
5. The Werewolf and The Officer (2023): Blends pack or shifter dynamics with a law-and-order angle that changes the series texture slightly.
6. The Suspicious Mate (2023): Leans into trust and uncertainty, using the existing world rather than resetting the premise.
7. Blood Power and Desire (2023): Pushes the series into a more vampire-leaning register while keeping the same supernatural-romance framework.

Dragon’s Blood M.C.

Read this one in order. The motorcycle-club and dragon elements gain more weight as the books stack up.

1. Apex (2017): Opens the Dragon’s Blood M.C. world and lays down the club-centered supernatural tone.
2. The Dragon’s Heart (2017): Deepens the dragon side of the setup and reinforces that this series is more than a simple biker romance.
3. Loving The Hellhound (2017): Expands the supernatural cast and shows the series is willing to widen beyond dragons alone.
4. Runaway (2017): Keeps the club continuity moving with another relationship shaped by danger, movement, and belonging.
5. The Bad Boy (2018): Continues the established M.C. world with a more rebellious character focus.
6. The Call of the Dragon (2018): Pulls the series back toward its dragon identity and the larger destiny-style themes inside it.
7. Finding Forever (2018): Uses the club and dragon world to deliver a more stability-oriented relationship arc.
8. The Dragon Twins (2019): Introduces a twin-centered variation that still depends on the earlier supernatural framework.
9. King of the Dragons (2019): Raises the scale by turning attention toward power, status, and dragon leadership.
10. Rafe (2019): Shifts to a more character-named focus while staying inside the same club continuity.
11. Suffer the Knight (2019): Adds a knightly or chivalric note to the supernatural mix, signaling a broader fantasy reach.
12. Dragon Lover (2021): Returns to the core dragon-romance identity after the earlier expansions of the series.
13. Locke (2023): Continues the later-era character-focused approach while still rewarding readers who know the long-running club world.

Old Mission Coven

A newer vampire line and a decent entry point if you want something shorter than the biggest series.

1. Simeon’s Beloved (2023): Opens the Old Mission Coven sequence and introduces the core coven-centered continuity.
2. Between Shadow and Blood (2023): Builds directly on the vampire tone of the opener and sharpens the coven atmosphere.
3. Sex, Blood, and Real Estate (2024): Adds a more playful title but still sits firmly inside the same vampire-world structure.
4. Two For The Guard (2025): Continues the series with a guard-centered angle that suggests a stronger connection to coven protection and loyalty.

Pack Rules

One of the earlier and more foundational shifter series in the catalog. Read it straight through if you want the older wolf-mate material first.

1. Mine (2014): Opens the Pack Rules world and serves as the clearest starting point for Stretke’s earlier wolf-shifter work.
2. Alpha Mate (2014): Moves upward in pack hierarchy and strengthens the series’ alpha-omega social structure.
3. The Enforcer’s Mate (2014): Shifts to a protector role inside the same pack world, reinforcing continuity rather than restarting it.
4. Forever Mine (2014): Continues the early-pack emotional arc with another bond-centered romance.
5. Lost and Found (2015): Pushes the series toward recovery and belonging while staying rooted in pack identity.
6. The Omega’s Mate (2015): Highlights omega dynamics more directly, making it important for readers interested in that recurring thread.
7. The Wolf Doctor’s Mate (2015): Expands the pack’s social world by centering a medical or healer-type role.
8. Finding Home (2015): Keeps the series focused on belonging and place, two of the line’s strongest recurring ideas.
9. Owen’s Mate (2015): Continues the character-specific middle stretch of the series while rewarding readers already invested in the pack.
10. Saving Jeremiah (2015): Leans more openly into rescue and protection, using the established pack bonds as its base.
11. Jackson’s Journey (2015): Adds another character-led installment that fits best when read after the earlier pack relationships are in place.
12. Jesse’s Love (2015): Continues the same world with a more intimate, character-named focus.
13. The Master’s Beloved (2015): Suggests a more power-tilted romance dynamic while still remaining inside the core Pack Rules continuity.
14. The Vampire’s Chosen (2016): Broadens the series by pulling vampire elements into what began as a wolf-centered line.
15. Eric’s Destiny (2016): Closes the verified Pack Rules run with a fate-oriented note that feels like a late-series culmination.

Pittsburgh Vampires

This is one of the biggest and most important B.A. Stretke series. Publication order is the best order because later books clearly build on the setting and recurring supernatural framework.

1. Meant to Be (2017): Opens Pittsburgh Vampires and is the best first book for readers who want Stretke’s larger vampire world from the beginning.
2. Bad Reputation (2018): Expands the same vampire setting with another romance that depends on the world already introduced.
3. Blond and Broken (2018): Pushes the line into a more emotionally damaged register while deepening the established vampire continuity.
4. Master DuCane (2018): Shifts attention toward an older or more powerful vampire figure, enlarging the series’ hierarchy.
5. Love is Danger (2018): Keeps the romance central while making the supernatural stakes feel less private and more threatening.
6. Surrender to Me (2018): Continues the same world with a more yielding, trust-driven emotional dynamic.
7. Eyes of Darkness (2018): Leans harder into danger and mystery, reinforcing why this line works best in sequence.
8. The Vampire and the Witch (2018): Adds witch elements to the vampire setting and broadens the supernatural texture of the series.
9. The Vampire Next Door (2019): Uses a more intimate title but still belongs firmly to the growing Pittsburgh continuity.
10. Never Let Me Go (2019): Continues the relationship-heavy middle stretch while depending on the established emotional world.
11. The Art of Death (2019): Turns the series darker in tone and further underlines the danger inside this vampire setting.
12. Open Your Eyes (2019): Suggests revelation and discovery, fitting the stage where the series has enough history to pay off hidden truths.
13. The Vampire’s Redemption (2020): Brings redemption to the foreground and reads as a later-stage character reckoning rather than an entry point.
14. Search and Devour (2020): Pushes the series toward pursuit and hunger imagery, emphasizing the predator edge of the world.
15. Michael’s Miracle (2020): A character-focused installment that lands better once the reader already knows the surrounding continuity.
16. In the Shadows (2021): Keeps the series in its darker register and suggests offstage conflicts becoming central.
17. Judgment (2021): Raises the sense of consequence and feels like a book that benefits from earlier relationship and world knowledge.
18. From Darkness to Dawn (2022): Signals movement from crisis toward renewal, giving the long-running line a sense of transition.
19. Hostile Takeover (2022): Suggests a more openly political or territorial struggle inside the vampire world.
20. The Vampire’s Heart (2022): Returns to a more intimate emotional frame while still sitting late in an already complex continuity.
21. Sad Eyes and Broken Heart (2023): Continues the hurt-comfort and emotional-recovery thread that appears often in the later books.
22. Love, Lust, and Danger (2024): Blends romance and threat in a way that feels typical of the established late-series tone.
23. Shadows and Desire (2024): Keeps the line in its darker, more sensual phase and clearly belongs to the mature continuity.
24. Beloved Charmer (2024): Brings a lighter or more alluring title into the same late-stage vampire world.
25. The Lost Beloved (2024): Suggests reunion or recovery, another plot shape that works best once the reader knows the emotional stakes.
26. The Fox and The Dragon (2024): Broadens the supernatural mix again and signals crossover-style creature variety within the Pittsburgh line.
27. The Master’s Holiday (2025): A later-series installment that appears to step briefly into a seasonal or celebratory frame without leaving continuity behind.
28. Hellhounds and Homicides (2025): Pushes the series into a more overtly dangerous and investigative-sounding mode.
29. The Wentworth Vampire (2025): Introduces a named-vampire focus that reads like a late-series expansion of the world.
30. Stitched In Fate (2026): The newest verified Pittsburgh Vampires title, continuing the line into 2026 rather than closing it out.

Sparrow Ridged Pack

A small side series that is easy to read on its own.

1. Omega Mine (2016): Opens the Sparrow Ridged Pack line with a direct omega-centered setup.
2. The Omega’s Love (2017): Continues the same small-pack continuity and completes the verified series pair.

Superior Land Wolf Pack

A very small entry in the catalog.

• The Werewolf’s Mate (2015): A standalone-style wolf-pack book that can be read without the commitment of a long series.

The Crimson Coven

Another major vampire sequence. Read in publication order because the cast, supernatural structure, and power dynamics clearly accumulate.

1. Crimson Love (2016): Opens The Crimson Coven and establishes the core setting for everything that follows.
2. Trusting Fate (2016): Builds directly on the opener with a stronger fate-and-bond emphasis inside the same vampire world.

The Dark Side

A short line that is easier to sample than the giant vampire series.

1. The Dark Side (2016): Opens the series with a darker paranormal tone than the title alone already promises.
2. Logan’s Love (2020): Returns to the line with a more character-specific focus after a sizable gap.
3. Race Against Time (2020): Adds urgency and threat, giving the short series a stronger action-driven close.

The Rose Vampire Coven

One of the newer vampire series and a solid place to start if you want current-era Stretke without committing to the oldest lines first.

1. The Blood Rose (2024): Opens the Rose Vampire Coven and is the best starting point for readers who want a recent vampire entry.
2. The Blood Seduction (2024): Builds directly on the opener with a more alluring and temptation-focused tone.
3. The Blood Master (2024): Raises the authority level inside the same coven world and deepens the hierarchy.

The Wolves of Lonepine Trilogy

Currently only one verified listed entry appears in the standard bibliography sources I checked.

• In The Shadow of The Wolf (2024): Opens the Lonepine line and currently serves as the only clearly verified book in that series listing.

Vampires of Blood and Bones

This is one of the longest vampire lines in the catalog. It is not a good series to enter halfway through.

17. Passion and Sacrifice (2024): Keeps the series centered on love under pressure while reinforcing the cost-heavy atmosphere.

Standalones

These are separate from the named series and can be read whenever you want.

1. Signed and Sealed (2011): An early standalone from before the large paranormal catalog fully took shape.
2. The Art of the Deal (2013): Another pre-series standalone that belongs to Stretke’s earlier phase.
3. Save Me (2016): A later standalone from the same period when the author was also building major series.
4. Risk and Reward (2017): A standalone that sits alongside the early growth of the big paranormal lines.

Short story / novella

Only one short-form item was clearly and consistently listed across the standard bibliography sources I checked.

Chronological order

A full all-series chronological order is not especially useful here. B.A. Stretke’s bibliography is organized much more clearly by publication order within each series, and that is still the best recommendation for nearly every reader.

Latest release status

B.A. Stretke is still actively publishing. The newest verified title I found is The Relic Broker (2026) in Vampires of Blood and Bones, with Stitched In Fate (2026) in Pittsburgh Vampires, The Blood Awakening (2026) in The Rose Vampire Coven, and Fated In The Forest (2026) opening The Wilder Pack.

Start with Rogue if you want the easiest modern entry, or Meant to Be if you want the larger vampire side of the catalog first.
