A. M. Wilson Books in Order (Updated June 12, 2026)

A. M. Wilson writes contemporary romance, small-town romance, romantic suspense, and darker thriller romance. Her bibliography is divided into several reading lanes, so the best order depends on the tone you want first.

Most of her contemporary series are interconnected standalones. That means each book centers on a different couple, but the recurring families, towns, and background relationships are easier to follow in order.

The safest starting point for most readers is Abandoned, the first Powell Sanctuary book. Readers looking for dark romantic suspense should start with the Revive books, while dark thriller romance readers should start with Pitch Dark.

Best Starting Point

• Start with Abandoned if you want A. M. Wilson’s small-town romance side.
• Start with Where We Meet Again if you want Arrow Creek as a separate small-town lane.
• Start with Unleashing Sin if you want Revive in timeline order.
• Start with Redesigning Fate if you want Revive in original publication order.
• Start with Pitch Dark if you want the darker Westbridge books co-written with Alex Grayson.

Powell Sanctuary Books in Order

Powell Sanctuary is an interconnected standalone contemporary romance series. Each book follows a different romance, but the Powell family and the sanctuary setting make series order the cleanest route.

1. Abandoned (2022): A stray dog causes a disastrous first meeting that leads into Lee Powell’s age-gap, grumpy/sunshine romance and introduces the Powell Dog Sanctuary setting.
2. Strayed (2023): A second-chance marriage romance where Bree and Corjan Powell are forced to face the love, resentment, and regret left behind after ten years apart.
3. Surrender (2023): A snowed-in romance with a single mother, her childhood crush Jack Powell, and a past threat that turns the forced-proximity setup into romantic suspense.
4. Wanted (2024): A runaway bride ends up on Jude Powell’s property, pulling the series into a protective romance with memory gaps, danger, and sanctuary found-family elements.
5. Reclaimed (2024): A fake-relationship romance involving Aiden Powell, pregnancy, forced proximity, and a stalker threat targeting dancers.

Recommended approach: Read Powell Sanctuary in publication order. The romances stand alone, but the family context builds from book to book.

Stone Trio Books in Order

Stone Trio is an interconnected standalone contemporary romance series connected to the Stone siblings. It is also described by the author as a continuation of the Powell Sanctuary world, so Powell Sanctuary is the better first stop for full context.

1. Revival (2025): A second-chance romance where a ruined honeymoon trip puts Cortney back in close quarters with Spencer Stone, her first love and her brother’s best friend.
2. Denial (2026): A single-dad, boss/nanny romance where Sutton Stone’s guarded life is disrupted by a woman hiding from family secrets and an obsessive podcaster.
3. Survival (TBA): Silas Stone’s story is announced as Stone Trio Book 3, but the author’s current release page still lists the date as TBA.

Recommended approach: Read Revival before Denial. Read Survival after release.

Arrow Creek Books in Order

Arrow Creek is an interconnected standalone small-town romance series. Each book follows a different couple, but the town and recurring emotional context work best in order.

1. Where We Meet Again (2017): A second-chance romance about Cami and Law, built around childhood love, single motherhood, a secret child, and painful history in Arrow Creek.
2. When Morning Comes (2020): A best-friends-to-lovers romance where Kiersten and Nathan have to decide what changes after an accidental pregnancy.
3. What Tears Us Down (2021): A guarded single father meets a woman passing through town, bringing trust issues, a disabled rescue dog, and hidden danger into the romance.
4. Where Our Turn Begins (2022): A widow returns to Arrow Creek with a toddler after a past one-night stand, forcing Dane to face fatherhood and the future he did not know was waiting.

Title note: Where We Meet Again was previously titled At the Risk of Forgetting.

Revive Books in Order

Revive is A. M. Wilson’s romantic suspense/dark lane. This is the series where publication order and chronological order differ.

Revive Publication Order

1. Redesigning Fate (2015): A woman escaping an abusive ex starts over in a new city, only to become involved with Elias, a man whose secrets complicate the danger around her.
2. Resurrecting Her (2016): A direct continuation of Redesigning Fate, following kidnapping fallout, relationship strain, pregnancy, and the continuing threat around Travis.
3. Unleashing Sin (2020): A darker standalone prequel-style Revive story about Alex “Sin” Sinclair, his missing sister, and the wounded woman left at his door.

Revive Chronological Order

1. Unleashing Sin (2020): Read first if you want the timeline to begin with Sin’s backstory and the events that sit before the main Revive duology.
2. Redesigning Fate (2015): Read second to begin the central Revive suspense arc involving Marlena, Elias, and the danger tied to her past.
3. Resurrecting Her (2016): Read third because it continues the same core story and should not be separated from Redesigning Fate.

Revive Spin-Off

• His Deliverance (2016): A Revive spin-off novella commonly listed with Wilson’s Revive material; treat it as optional completist reading after the main Revive books.

Recommended approach: New readers should use chronological order if they want the smoothest timeline. Publication order is better only if they want the original release experience.

Westbridge Books in Order

Westbridge is a dark thriller romance series co-written with Alex Grayson. It is much darker than Wilson’s small-town contemporary romance, and it should be read in order.

1. Pitch Dark (2017): A missing-persons thriller romance where Detective Niko James investigates a brutal case tied to his childhood friend and a surviving woman with no memory.
2. Broad Daylight (2021): A sequel set in Westbridge that follows Reece James as stalking, revenge, captivity, and a long-buried love collide.

Westbridge Omnibus

1. Salvaged Pieces (Omnibus): A collection of Pitch Dark and Broad Daylight with exclusive bonus content, best used as the complete Westbridge edition rather than a separate sequel.

Recommended approach: Start with Pitch Dark. Read Broad Daylight next. Choose Salvaged Pieces only if you want the omnibus format and bonus material.

Standalone Novel

• Indisputable (2015): A standalone romance about Tatum Krause, a high-school senior trying to move past family instability, and Jacoby Ryan, a man carrying his own grief and guilt.

Reading status: Separate continuity. Read it at any time.

Anthologies and Collections

These are optional. They are not required for Powell Sanctuary, Stone Trio, Arrow Creek, Revive, or Westbridge continuity.

1. This Beautiful Escape (2015): A multi-author collection appearance; read only if you are tracking Wilson’s anthology contributions.
2. Take Me To Bed: Bedtime Quickies Collection (2020): A multi-author anthology contribution; not required for any main series order.
3. Blue Collar Babes (2023): A multi-author collection appearance; optional for completists and separate from the main series.

Latest Release Status

As of June 6, 2026, Denial is listed by the author as live and is Stone Trio Book 2.
