Loki Renard Books in Order (Updated March 12, 2026)

Loki Renard writes dark romance across several distinct lanes: alien romance, paranormal romance, dark contemporary, fantasy-paranormal, and a large number of standalones. The important thing is this: there is no single must-follow order for the whole catalog.

The right approach is to read inside each series in order, then treat standalones and loosely connected books as optional side trips.

The cleanest way to read Loki Renard

If you want the simplest answer, use one of these starting points:

Best sci-fi starting point: Mine
Best paranormal/fantasy starting point: Predators
Best dark contemporary starting point: Vicious Looks
Best if you want a newer standalone first: His Bride or Only Mine

For most readers, the safest plan is to pick one lane and stay there for a few books rather than jumping between aliens, vampires, crime, and fantasy worlds.

Reading lanes at a glance

Alien-heavy series: Possessive Aliens, Royal Aliens, Primal Planet, Dragon Brides, Alien Overlords, Human Pet Shop, Feral Aliens.
Paranormal/fantasy series: Vampire Kings, Possessive Gods.
Dark contemporary/crime series: Vicious City, Undercover Doms, Vitali’s Legacy, Blood Brotherhood.
Darker multi-book romance runs: Dark Reverse Harem, Shamefully Broken, Ares Brothers, Military Discipline.

Loki Renard books in order by series

Possessive Aliens

1. Mine (2019): The clearest entry point to Renard’s alien catalog, opening the human-captive setup that defines this seven-book run.
2. Interstellar Human Petting Zoo (2019): Stays in the same universe and pushes further into the “humans as owned exhibits” angle, so it works best after Mine.
3. Humans Must Kneel (2020): Continues the same possession-and-rebellion tone, and belongs third in publication order.
4. Cave Alien (2020): Keeps the series in the same broad continuity while shifting to a more survival-driven setup.
5. Karen vs Alien (2020): A later-series entry that still fits the same dominant alien framework, but is better once the world is familiar.
6. Human Pet Pound (2020): Returns to the controlled-human side of the setting and should be read after the earlier books.
7. Human Pet Prison (2020): The last main entry in the series and the natural stopping point for a full Possessive Aliens read.

Dark Reverse Harem

1. Shamefully Shared (2018): Opens this darker reverse-harem lane and establishes the humiliation-heavy tone early.
2. Savages (2018): Builds on the same kind of coercive, group-dynamic setup and works best second.
3. Sold (2019): Continues the series with another captivity-centered romance and belongs after the first two.
4. Filthy Beasts (2019): The fourth main book and the cleanest endpoint for this run.

Royal Aliens

1. The Alien King’s Prey (2020): The best place to start this royal-alien branch, mixing court power with Renard’s usual possessive dynamic.
2. The Alien King’s Pet (2021): Continues the same broad universe with another king-and-human pairing, and works best second.
3. The Beast King (2021): Expands the royal side of the setting while keeping the same dominant romantic structure.
4. The Alien Warrior King’s Accountant (2021): A later entry that leans into the same world but with a fresh couple and setup.
5. Monster King (2022): Keeps the royal-monster thread going and belongs after the earlier king books.
6. Bad Alien Boss (2023): The latest main Royal Aliens entry and the current endpoint for this sequence.

Vampire Kings

1. Predators (2021): The right entry point for Renard’s vampire-shifter side, opening a darker paranormal power structure than the alien books.
2. Royal Pains (2021): Continues the supernatural hierarchy and should be read after Predators.
3. Pack Master (2022): Pushes the wolf-and-power dynamic further, making it a natural third stop.
4. Maker (2023): A later-series paranormal entry that fits the same shared line of control and supernatural politics.
5. Bloody Brats (2024): The current finale of the Vampire Kings run and the best endpoint for readers doing the whole series.

Primal Planet

1. Primal (2024): Opens this feral-survival alien series and is the correct first book for the world.
2. Captive (2024): Continues the planet-side danger and captivity dynamic, so it should follow directly after Primal.
3. Breed (2024): Keeps the same harsh alien-planet setup and belongs third.
4. Alpha (2024): The fourth main entry and the present endpoint for Primal Planet.

Vicious City

1. Vicious Looks (2019): The strongest entry point if you want dark contemporary rather than sci-fi or paranormal, with crime-world pressure driving the romance.
2. Vicious Lies (2019): Continues the same city-and-violence atmosphere and works best second.
3. Vicious Loves (2019): Builds on the same tone of danger, control, and emotional escalation.
4. Vicious Revenge (2019): Closes the main four-book Vicious City run and is best saved for last.

Dragon Brides

1. The Dragon’s Pet (2017): The best starting point for Renard’s dragon fantasy romance line, opening the series’ captivity-and-claiming pattern.
2. The Dragon’s Captive (2017): Continues the dragon-centered world and belongs immediately after Book 1.
3. The Dragon King’s Pet (2018): Expands the hierarchy of the setting while keeping the same dark-romance structure.
4. Leashed by the Dragons (2018): A later series entry that works better once the dragon world is established.
5. The Dragon Lord’s Pet (2018): The final main Dragon Brides book and the natural endpoint for the sequence.

Shamefully Broken

1. Shamefully Broken (2018): Starts this thread of damaged protagonists and heavy emotional control dynamics.
2. Broken Boy (2021): Follows the same world after the first book, so it is best read second rather than alone.

Alien Overlords

1. The Human Hunter (2023): Opens the series with a hunted-human setup and a more aggressive alien-threat angle.
2. His Broken Human (2023): Continues the same world and should be read after The Human Hunter.
3. Her Brutal Alien (2023): The third main entry and the cleanest stopping point for the trilogy.

Human Pet Shop

1. Leashed (2023): Starts the series with the strongest version of the “human pet” premise, so it is the right entry point.
2. Collared (2023): Continues the same pet-shop world and belongs second.
3. Tamed (2024): Closes the trilogy and works best once the first two have set the tone.

Undercover Doms

(with Jane Henry)

1. Criminal (2018): Opens the duet with an undercover-crime setup and is the correct first book.
2. Hard Time (2018): Finishes the duet and should be read directly after Criminal.

Blood Brotherhood

1. Father (2022): Starts this darker cult-like brotherhood sequence and establishes the group’s controlling structure.
2. Owner (2022): Continues the brotherhood world and belongs second.
3. Disobedient Bride (2023): Pushes the arranged-marriage side of the series and works best after the first two.
4. Angel Breaker (2024): A later entry that deepens the same violent, ritualized tone.
5. Obedient Bride (2024): The fifth main book and current endpoint for the Blood Brotherhood line.

Possessive Gods

1. Ours (2020): Opens this mythic-paranormal branch with gods rather than aliens or mob figures, making it the correct first stop.
2. Bad Twin (2020): Continues the divine-family angle and should follow Ours.
3. The Tied (2021): Closes the three-book run and works best as the final installment.

Vitali’s Legacy

1. Broken Bride (2021): Starts this darker family/crime sequence and is the entry point for its revenge-heavy arc.
2. Vengeance (2021): Continues the Vitali line and belongs second.
3. Virgin (2021): The third main book and the current end of this sequence.

Ares Brothers

1. Scar (2018): Opens the series with one of Renard’s cleaner “start here” options for readers who want dark romance without aliens.
2. Freak (2020): Continues the Ares Brothers line and should be read second.

Feral Aliens

1. Kitty vs Alien (2022): Starts this shorter alien run with a sharper, more playful title but the same dark possessive core.
2. Scratch (2022): Finishes the pair and works best as Book 2.

Military Discipline

1. Savage’s Recruit (2024): Opens the series with a militarized discipline structure, so it is the correct first book.
2. Tex’s Revenge (2024): Continues the run with another punishment-and-ownership dynamic in the same lane.
3. Savage’s Woman (2025): The third book and present endpoint for the sequence.

Recent standalones and loose connections

These books are best treated as optional unless you are doing a broad Loki Renard backlist read.

1. His Pet (2024): A standalone dark romance in its own world, and one of the better recent entry points if you want contemporary over sci-fi.
2. His Bride (2024): A related standalone in the same world as His Pet, best read after it for the strongest continuity payoff.
3. His Toy (2025): Another same-world standalone, so it fits naturally after His Pet and His Bride.
4. Savage Instinct (2025): A separate dark sci-fi romance that can be read on its own without series homework.
5. Their Human Pet (2025): A standalone despite the familiar “human pet” framing, so it does not need the Human Pet Shop trilogy first.
6. Only Mine (2026): A recent dark stalker romance and, as of now, one of the newest confirmed Loki Renard releases.

Stalked Mates

1. Hunted Mate (2025): Starts this wolf-shifter mini-series and can work as a standalone, but it is still the proper Book 1.
2. Bred Mate (2025): The second Stalked Mates book and the natural follow-up to Hunted Mate.

Do you need to read Loki Renard in publication order?

Not across the entire catalog.

For Loki Renard, series order matters more than career-wide publication order. The books are grouped into many separate continuities, and jumping from one lane to another is normal. The real mistake is starting in the middle of a named series. Goodreads currently lists more than a dozen identified series and more than 250 works under the author profile, which is exactly why a shelf-by-shelf approach works better than one giant master chain.

Latest release status

As of March 12, 2026, one of the newest confirmed Loki Renard titles is Only Mine, published January 16, 2026. Confirmed 2025 releases also include Savage Instinct, Hunted Mate, Bred Mate, and Their Human Pet. The official site confirms the author is active, but the clearest public date trail for these newer books comes from Goodreads title pages and Amazon series/store listings.
