Diana Quincy Books in Order: The Complete Reading Guide
Diana Quincy writes smart, sensual Regency romance with fresh perspectives and heroines who refuse to sit quietly in the drawing room. Her books are organised into neat series, and this guide lays each one out in order so you always know exactly what to read next — starting with the acclaimed novel that put her on everyone's TBR.
Here is the good news: you do not have to read Diana Quincy's whole catalogue in a strict line. Every novel is a complete standalone romance with its own happy ending. But she builds her books around families and friend circles, so a series read in order rewards you with recurring characters and callbacks. Below is every series in reading order, followed by the book we would hand a brand-new reader.
Accidental Peers
Where Quincy's Regency world begins — a group of connected families and the unexpected matches that upend their lives.
- Seducing Charlotte — a forbidden attraction and a heroine determined to make her own choices.
- Tempting Bella — a marriage-of-convenience that neither party planned to fall into.
- Compromising Willa — a hero and heroine thrown together by scandal.
- Engaging the Earl — a second-chance romance closes out the series.
Rebellious Brides
Bold, unconventional heroines — spies, adventurers, and women who bend the rules of the ton. A step up in intrigue and heat.
- Spy Fall — a lady with secrets and the man sent to uncover them.
- A License to Wed — a marriage of convenience with espionage simmering underneath.
- From London with Love — an adventurous heroine and a hero who cannot resist her.
- The Duke Who Ravished Me — a passionate, high-stakes finale.

Clandestine Affairs
Quincy's most celebrated series — sensual, emotionally rich romances that earned wide acclaim and are the easiest place for a newcomer to fall in love with her writing.
- Her Night with the Duke — a widow and a duke share one anonymous night, only to discover they are far more entangled than either realised. The standout that made Quincy a must-read.
- The Viscount Made Me Do It — a bonesetter heroine and a haunted viscount in a slow-burning, unusual pairing.
- The Marquess Makes His Move — a marquess undercover in his own household, and the mapmaker who upends his plans.
