Immortal Curse Books in Order
Immortal Curse is one of Foss’s main continuing worlds. Each book has a romance thread, but the series also has a larger plot that carries across books, so publication order is the safest route.
- Blood Laws (2017): The series opens with cursed immortals, forbidden rules, and a paranormal world where bloodlines and power shape every relationship.
- Forbidden Bonds (2017): The second book expands the rules of the immortal world while deepening the central bond-and-consequence structure.
- Blood Heart (2018): The series pushes further into bloodline secrets, emotional risk, and the larger mythology behind the immortal conflict.
- Elder Bonds (2018): An optional Immortal Curse World entry that adds side material and background context after the early main books.
- Blood Bonds (2018): The main story continues with more pressure on the bonds, loyalties, and supernatural politics already in motion.
- Angel Bonds (2019): Angelic and immortal elements collide, widening the series beyond its original vampire-and-immortal focus.
- Blood Seeker (2020): The hunt for truth becomes more dangerous as the series moves toward later revelations.
- Blood Burden (2020): An optional Immortal Curse World story that fits after Blood Seeker and adds supporting-world context.
- Wicked Bonds (2021): The seventh released main novel raises the emotional and supernatural stakes before the still-unfinished later arc.
- Blood King (forthcoming/TBA): Listed by the author as book eight, but not treated here as a released installment as of this update.
- Assassin Bonds (forthcoming/TBA): Listed in the author’s suggested future Immortal Curse World order, but not available as a released book during this update.
Immortal Curse Collections
- Immortal Curse: Illustrated Edition Volume One (2020): An illustrated edition/collection format, not a separate new installment in the reading order.
- Immortal Curse Series, Books 1-3: A bundled edition for the first three main novels.
- Immortal Curse Boxed Sets: Collection formats for existing books, useful for buying or reading in bundles but not separate continuity entries.
Dark Provenance Books in Order
Dark Provenance is connected by world and recurring supernatural mythology, but the author describes the books as readable as standalones. Publication order is useful, but strict order is less important than it is in Immortal Curse.
- Heiress of Bael (2018): A prequel novella about the Heiress of Bael, demon danger, and a mission involving the missing Divinity.
- Daughter of Death (2018): The main series begins with death, demons, and a heroine pulled into a dangerous supernatural legacy.
- Paramour of Sin (2021): A standalone paranormal romance involving a Demonic Lord, an Incubus, and a Succubus with lethal power.
- Princess of Bael (2022): The Bael family thread continues with more focus on demonic inheritance, power, and identity.
- Son of Chaos (2018): Although originally published earlier, the author’s recommended order places it after Princess of Bael for continuity clarity.
- Captive of Hell (forthcoming/availability uncertain): Listed as book five on the author’s page, with Trudy and Prince Ashmedai at the center, but the author page still labels it as coming soon.
Blood Alliance Books in Order
Blood Alliance is a completed dark vampire/lycan series. Each book has a resolution, but the world has recurring power structures, character overlap, and a larger alliance plot, so order is strongly recommended.
- Chastely Bitten (2018): The series begins in a future where vampires and lycans hold power and humans have lost control.
- Royally Bitten (2019): The royal and political sides of the vampire/lycan world become more prominent.
- Regally Bitten (2019): The series continues through hierarchy, possession, and the dangers of supernatural rule.
- Rebel Bitten (2020): Rebellion and control become central as the series moves into sharper resistance against the ruling order.
- Viciously Bitten (2021): A bonus bite, best read after Rebel Bitten, offering a darker side glimpse rather than a full main-series novel.
- Kingly Bitten (2021): The main sequence returns to power, rule, and the cost of claiming a place in the alliance.
- Cruelly Bitten (2024): The sixth main novel closes the primary Blood Alliance series with Cam and Izzy’s brutal king-and-bond storyline.
- Forever Bitten (2025): A bonus-scene collection meant as a post-series check-in rather than a plot-heavy novella.

Do You Need to Read Lexi C. Foss in Publication Order?
No. Publication order is useful inside a series, but not across the whole bibliography.
The Immortal Curse, Midnight Fae Academy, Elemental Fae Academy, Hell Fae, Netherworld Fae, X-Clan, and V-Clan books should be read in their own series order.
The standalones and shared-world books can be read by trope, mood, or subgenre.
Which Books Are Standalone?
The clearest standalone choices are Carnage Island, Rotanev, Scarlet Mark, Their Lethal Pet, Monsterland Mayhem, Dark Obsessions, and Lark.
Some series books are also written with standalone romance arcs, especially in Blood Alliance and Dark Provenance, but they still benefit from order because world details and recurring characters build over time.
FAQs
What Lexi C. Foss book should I read first?
Start with Blood Laws for the best full-author entry point. Start with Carnage Island for a one-book sampler.
Are Lexi C. Foss books connected?
Some are connected, but not all. Immortal Curse, Blood Alliance, Midnight Fae Academy, X-Clan, V-Clan, and Hell Fae should each be treated as separate reading lanes.
Is Midnight Fae Academy complete?
Yes. The main Midnight Fae Academy series has four books, plus the prequel novella Ella’s Masquerade and a complete-series omnibus.
Is Blood Alliance complete?
Yes. The main Blood Alliance series is complete at six main books, with bonus material and related world stories available separately.
Is Blood King published?
The safest answer is no for this guide. Some third-party pages list dates, but the author’s own page still treats Blood King as unreleased/TBA.
Should I read Blood Day before Blood Alliance?
No. Read Blood Alliance first, then move to Blood Day and the Blood University material.
Can I read Dark Provenance out of order?
Yes, but the author’s suggested order is still the better path: Heiress of Bael, Daughter of Death, Paramour of Sin, Princess of Bael, Son of Chaos, then Captive of Hell when available.
Conclusion
The best Lexi C. Foss reading order depends on the world you choose.
For the broadest introduction, begin with Blood Laws and follow Immortal Curse in order. For a completed academy series, choose Midnight Fae Academy. For dark omegaverse and shifter romance, begin with Andorra Sector or Blood Sector.
The key is not to mix every Foss title into one timeline. Read by world, keep connected series intact, and use the standalone books as separate entry points.
