Amy Daws Books in Order (Updated 2026-02-04)

Amy Daws writes in a few connected “worlds” that occasionally overlap. The books are easiest when you treat each world as its own line: start at the beginning of that line, read forward, then switch to another line when you’re done.

Some titles also act as bridges between worlds. Those are marked clearly below so you don’t stumble into spoilers or emotional context out of nowhere.

The quickest way to choose your starting book

Pick the vibe first:

• Rom-com friend group, modern and bingeable: start with Wait With Me
• British footballers + family chaos + big feelings: start with Challenge
• Early, more emotional London-set romances: start with Becoming Us
• Matchmaker mountain-town rom-coms: start with Nine Month Contract

If you want every cameo to land in the intended order, use the “Full timeline” list a little farther down.

Wait With Me (rom-com friend group, read in order)

These are connected through friendships and recurring side characters, so the couples’ endings can be mentioned later.

1. Wait With Me: A flirty, chaotic meet-cute turns into the kind of connection that keeps showing up at the worst (best) times.
2. Next In Line: Best-friend proximity becomes impossible to ignore once feelings stop staying “in the background.”
3. One Moment Please: A day that changes everything forces two people to rebuild hope from the messiest starting point.
4. Take A Number: A “this is just practical” arrangement turns emotional the moment one person starts caring too much.
5. Last on the List: A final nudge pushes the friend group into the next phase of life, love, and hard honesty.

Mountain Men Matchmaker (Fletcher Mountain, read in order)

This is its own cozy, quirky mountain-town lane with a clear sequence.

1. Nine Month Contract: A structured agreement goes sideways when the feelings start behaving like they have rights.
2. Seven Year Itch: Long-simmering tension finally breaks the surface, and the fallout is both romantic and inconvenient.
3. Honeymoon Phase: A “we’re fine” couple hits a new stage that tests whether love can stay fun under pressure.
4. Bad Boy Era (announced for 2026): A notorious local finally gets his turn when the person least impressed by him becomes the one who matters.

---

London Lovers (read in order)

These are the early London-set romances. They’re more emotional in tone, and they set up threads that later echo in the footballer books.

1. Becoming Us: Two people fall hard young, then learn that growing up can change what love asks for.
2. A Broken Us: A couple tries to stay together while grief and longing press on every weak seam.
3. London Bound: A fresh start in the city turns into a romance that refuses to stay casual.
4. Not The One: A relationship collides with timing and truth, forcing a choice that can’t be softened.

---

Strength (bridge book – read after London Lovers)

This book connects the London-set stories to the footballer world. It is emotionally heavier than most.

• Strength: A love story shaped by deep pain and recovery, where hope is earned one decision at a time.

Content note: This story includes a suicide-attempt storyline that some readers may find difficult.

---

Harris Brothers (British footballers, read in order)

This is the core “family footballer” run. The first six books focus on the Harris siblings and their partners.

0. Strength (prequel/bridge): A powerful crossover story that deepens the emotional foundation before the footballer books.
1. Challenge: A sharp, competitive romance where attraction keeps breaking through the rules they try to set.
2. Endurance: Two people who should know better keep choosing each other anyway, then have to handle the consequences.
3. Keeper: A fan-favorite best-friends arc where the hardest part is admitting what’s always been true.
   3.5. End Goal (short story): A bite-sized return that adds extra closure in the middle stretch of the series.
4. Surrender: A relationship faces the real test: not desire, but vulnerability that can’t be taken back.
5. Dominate: Pride, passion, and family pressure collide until honesty becomes the only way forward.

---

Harris World spin-offs (read after Dominate)

These expand the world beyond the core siblings. They’re best after the main run because they assume you know the family and their circle.

6. Payback: A high-energy romance where the past comes due and the hero has to grow up fast.
7. Blindsided: A feel-good, funny romance that still hits emotionally when the characters least expect it.
8. Replay: A second-chance story where old love gets one more shot, under new, tougher rules.
9. Sweeper: A later entry that broadens the world and delivers a fresh couple with strong ties to what came before.

Recommended order for most readers

If you want the most “easy to love” entry without committing to the heaviest emotional material first:

1. Wait With Me (then keep going through the whole series)
2. Move to Nine Month Contract → Seven Year Itch → Honeymoon Phase
3. When you want the bigger connected universe, start London Lovers → Strength → Harris Brothers → spin-offs

This path keeps the tone light early, then ramps up into the deep, interconnected arcs when you’re ready.

FAQs

Do I have to read London Lovers before the footballer books?
Not strictly, but you’ll understand Strength (and its emotional weight) much better if you do.

Can I read Wait With Me without reading the earlier London/football books?
Yes. It’s a different vibe and works on its own.

Where do I put the short story End Goal?
Read it right after Keeper for the smoothest timing.
