Olivia Dade writes romance in several clearly separated series, plus a handful of shorter works. Some series share characters and spoilers carry forward in casual conversation, so “in order” matters most inside each series, not across her entire career.

Olivia Dade Books in Order (Updated 2026-02-04)

If you’re trying to avoid learning who ends up with whom, treat each series as its own lane and read that lane from book one onward.


The spoiler-safe way to read Olivia Dade

Start with the series that matches your mood, then keep going in that same series order:

  • Fan culture + actors + online identity: start with Spoiler Alert
  • Small-town rom-com with a sharper edge: start with At First Spite
  • Teacher romances in one community: start with Teach Me
  • Short “filmed-for-TV” romance setups: start with Desire and the Deep Blue Sea
  • Earlier library romances: start with Broken Resolutions (availability note below)

Spoiler Alert series (read in order)

  1. Spoiler Alert: A plus-size fanfic writer meets her celebrity crush in real life, and the fantasy turns into a relationship with real stakes.
  2. All the Feels: A disaster-prone actor hires a grounded minder, and their forced proximity becomes the calm he didn’t know how to ask for.
  3. Chekhov’s Strap-On (short bonus story): A quick, playful side story that leans into fandom humor and bedroom confidence.
  4. Ship Wrecked: Two co-stars with years of unresolved tension are trapped together on an island shoot where avoidance stops working.

There’s Something About Marysburg series (read in order)

Love Unscripted series (read in order)

  2. Tiny House, Big Love: A cramped renovation project and constant filming pressure two reluctant hearts into admitting what they want.

Lovestruck Librarians series (read in order)

  3. Rogue Affair (anthology, out of print): A romance novella that remains separate from the main series reading lines.

Newer paranormal line

A practical recommended path

If you want one satisfying run without hopping around:

  1. Spoiler Alert series (books 1 → 4, including the short bonus)

  3. Marysburg (start at Teach Me)
  4. Add Love Unscripted whenever you’re in the mood for shorter, high-chemistry setups

Questions readers usually have

Do I have to read everything in publication order across all series?
No. The cleanest approach is series-by-series.

Which series is most sensitive to reading out of order?
Spoiler Alert, later books assume you already know earlier couples’ outcomes.

What if I only want one book to try her style?
Choose based on flavor: Spoiler Alert for fandom + celebrity romance, or At First Spite for small-town rom-com with bite.
