Katharine Ashe Books in Order: Every Series Explained
Katharine Ashe writes lush, emotionally intense Regency romance — think secret societies, sea voyages, and heroes who feel everything too deeply. Her books are all quietly connected, so if you have fallen for one, here is every Katharine Ashe series in order and exactly how they link together.
Here is the thing to know about Katharine Ashe: every one of her books is a complete standalone romance, but they all live in the same universe. Heroes from one series turn up as secondary characters in the next, minor players get their own stories later, and the Falcon Club — a shadowy society of do-gooders and spies — threads through the whole thing. You can read any single book cold, but reading in order turns the catalogue into one interconnected world. Here is how it breaks down.
The Falcon Club series in order
Where the connected world begins. The Falcon Club is a secret society whose members quietly right wrongs across Regency Britain.
- When a Scot Loves a Lady (2012) — A spy and the composed lady who unsettles him, snowbound together with danger closing in.
- How to Be a Proper Lady (2012) — A privateer, a Falcon Club agent, and a wager on the high seas.
- How a Lady Weds a Rogue (2012) — A runaway heiress and the wounded hero who shelters her.
- How to Marry a Highlander (2013) — A shorter connected story, ideal as a quick bridge in the series.
The Prince Catchers series in order
Three sisters, a mysterious prophecy about their birth, and the search for the truth of their origins — wrapped around three sweeping romances.
- I Married the Duke (2013) — Arabella strikes a bargain to marry a duke, only to fall for the ship captain who complicates everything. Adventurous and swoony.
- I Adored a Lord (2014) — A house party, a murder mystery, and Ravenna's romance with an enigmatic lord.
- I Loved a Rogue (2015) — Eleanor and the gypsy-raised blacksmith she has never been able to forget. The emotional peak of the trilogy.

The Devil's Duke series in order
A continuation of the Falcon Club world and, for many fans, Ashe at her most powerful — passionate, angsty, and beautifully written.
- The Rogue (2016) — A woman infiltrates a secret society to expose it and reunites with the man who broke her heart. Slow-burn perfection.
- The Earl (2016) — A crusading writer and the earl who has been her secret nemesis, with a mystery at its core.
- The Pirate & I (2017) — A connected novella that fills in the world between the main books.
- The Duke (2017) — A scarred, brooding hero and the healer who returns to him. Widely called one of her best.
- The Prince (2018) — An art student disguises herself to study in Edinburgh and falls for a masked prince. A lavish finale.
Where to start
For a single unforgettable standalone, many readers point straight to The Duke — its wounded hero and second-chance love story are devastating in the best way. If you would rather follow the connected universe from its roots, begin the Falcon Club with When a Scot Loves a Lady. And if you want the most beloved trilogy to binge, I Married the Duke opens the adventurous Prince Catchers. Whichever door you choose, expect rich prose and big emotions.
