Pippa Grant Books in Order (Updated 2026-02-03)

Pippa Grant writes fast, high-energy romantic comedies that often share towns, friend groups, and running jokes. You can read many of her books out of order, but it’s easy to bump into casual “and now they’re married” spoilers if you skip around.

Instead of one giant list, the cleanest approach is to pick one world and read straight through, especially in the Copper Valley-connected books, where side characters keep upgrading into main characters.

Start here

If you want one safe, no-regrets entry point, begin with:

• The Pilot and the Puck-Up (kicks off the Copper Valley hockey line)

If you want a newer, compact arc with a clear finish, begin with:

• The Worst Wedding Date (book 1 of a complete trilogy)

If you want a two-book “try it without the time commitment,” begin with:

• Until It Was Love (then The Roommate Mistake)

Common questions

Do I have to read everything in order?
No. Read in order within a series, and you’ll be fine.

What happens if I jump into the middle of Copper Valley?
You’ll still understand the main couple, but you’ll lose some “how did they get together?” moments.

Is publication order safer than skipping around by trope?
Yes, especially in Copper Valley, because the books love to celebrate earlier couples in later scenes.

The simplest plan

Start with The Pilot and the Puck-Up, keep going through the Thrusters books, and only switch series once you finish a run. That keeps the jokes fun, the cameos meaningful, and the romantic payoffs intact.
