Savannah Scott Books in Order (Updated March 27, 2026)

Savannah Scott writes closed-door romantic comedies, and her catalog is easiest to read by series shelf rather than as one long combined timeline. Most of her books sit in short, cleanly labeled series, so the main job is simply keeping those lanes separate.

For new readers, the most natural entry point is Friend(shipped) if you want her best-known small-town lane, or Are We There Yet? if you want the travel-romcom side first. If you like seasonal books, Rent Yourself an Elf is the cleanest holiday starting point.

How to read Savannah Scott

Read each series in publication order. Do not mix them as if they are one continuous universe.

The best sequence for most readers is:

1. Getting Shipped!
2. Love Trippin’
3. Have Yourself a Merry Little Romance
4. Cataloochee Coffee Shop Romances
5. The Firemen of Waterford TN
6. Read Misfortune and Mr. Right separately as a shared-world contribution

Getting Shipped!

Included

1. Friend(shipped) (2021): A small-town, friends-to-lovers romcom that opens the Bordeaux setting and establishes the warm, community-based tone of the series.
2. Battleshipped (2022): A follow-up in the same world that keeps the romantic-comedy energy while expanding the town’s recurring cast.
3. Town(shipped) (2022): A bride-on-the-run, amnesia romcom that broadens the series with a more overtly high-concept setup.
4. Censorshipped (2022): Another Bordeaux-centered romance that continues the interconnected small-town feel and works best after the earlier books.
5. Doctorshipped (2022): A grumpy-sunshine, single-dad romcom that keeps the series rooted in character crossover and community familiarity.
6. Cruiseshipped (2023): A travel-tinged installment that stretches the series beyond town borders while still leaning on the same emotional style.
7. Ripped & Shipped (2023): An enemies-to-lovers, fake-dating romcom that plays with sharper conflict inside the established series lane.
8. Courtshipped (2023, novella): A shorter entry that fits best after the main run already has its town and character relationships in place.
9. Partnershipped in a Pear Tree (2025): A later seasonal return to the series, best treated as an extra for readers already comfortable with Bordeaux.

Love Trippin’

Included

1. Are We There Yet? (2023): A road-trip, best friend’s brother romcom that launches this series with travel, proximity, and lighter chaos.
2. A Fish Out of Water (2023): An enemies-to-lovers follow-up that keeps the series moving through location-based romantic setups.
3. Catch a Wave (2024): A beachier, motion-filled installment that continues the travel-first identity of the series.
4. Resorting to Romance (2024): A fake-dating, single-mom romcom that leans into vacation energy and emotional reset.
5. Reel Love (2024): A later entry that keeps the vacation-and-romance formula intact while rounding out the series as currently listed.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Romance

Included

1. Rent Yourself an Elf (2023): A sweet Christmas romcom novella that starts the holiday shelf with a playful seasonal premise.
2. Catch Yourself a Snowmance (2024): A winter romance that builds on the same cozy, festive tone.
3. Date Yourself a Grinch (2025): A later holiday entry that keeps the series centered on seasonal opposites and warm-hearted comedy.

Cataloochee Coffee Shop Romances

Included

1. A Not So Fictional Fall (2023): A marriage-of-convenience romcom built around a romance-author mix-up and a coffee-shop setting.
2. He’s So Not My Valentine (2024): A single-mom, reluctant-to-fall romcom that continues the cozy small-town feel of this shorter series.

The Firemen of Waterford TN

Included, active series

1. Fire and Icing (2025): A fake-dating firefighter romcom with a meet-ugly between a rookie firefighter and a local bakery owner.
2. Book and Ladder (2025): The second Waterford book, continuing the firefighter setup with another town-based closed-door romance.
3. Smoke and Ash (2026): The third listed entry, continuing the active Firemen of Waterford line.
4. Frost and Flame (2026): The fourth listed entry, currently part of the same active series.

Shared-world contribution

Separate continuity

Misfortune and Mr. Right (2025): A standalone entry in Only Magic in the Building, best read as a separate project rather than folded into Savannah Scott’s own series order.

1. Friend(shipped)
2. Battleshipped
3. Town(shipped)
4. Censorshipped
5. Doctorshipped
6. Cruiseshipped
7. Ripped & Shipped

20. Fire and Icing
21. Book and Ladder
22. Smoke and Ash
23. Frost and Flame

Then read:

24. Misfortune and Mr. Right

Where to start

1. Start with Friend(shipped) if you want the most recognizable Savannah Scott entry and the clearest small-town series.
2. Start with Are We There Yet? if travel romcoms are more your thing than town-based continuity.
3. Start with Rent Yourself an Elf if you want a quick seasonal introduction.

Avoid starting with Smoke and Ash or Frost and Flame because those sit inside an active firefighter series and are better after the earlier Waterford books.

Do you need a chronological order?

No.

Savannah Scott’s books are much more useful in series publication order than in one master timeline. The payoff comes from staying inside each tone-and-setting lane, not from trying to line up every book by date.

Latest release status

The newest currently listed Savannah Scott titles are Smoke and Ash and Frost and Flame, both attached to The Firemen of Waterford TN in 2026. That makes the firefighter series the main active branch to watch right now.

Final recommendation

For most readers, the best Savannah Scott reading order is to begin with Getting Shipped!, then move to Love Trippin’, then pick up the holiday and coffee-shop books, and save The Firemen of Waterford TN for when you want her newest active series. Keep Misfortune and Mr. Right separate as a shared-world side trip.
