Suggested reading order by series

I’ve been asked in which order the books of my series ought to be read. For some of them, like the standalones in the On The Edge series, it doesn’t really matter as they are part of the series because of the common setting rather than characters. I will put those between (parentheses) and indicate when they take place in the timeline. For books that share characters, I will indicate which characters are in which book. I will also include upcoming books in [brackets].

Final Vision of Destiny – Sam

With the last of her friends gone, Daisy finds herself alone with Sam Woods. After the nine different visions the seer experienced during the evening, he confesses to having trouble differentiating reality from the images of the future he saw. Feeling more comfortable with him than she did at the beginning of the night, Daisy invites him to stay in her guest room.

Troubled as he may be, Sam still hasn’t given up on giving Daisy a vision of her future, haunted by the thought that maybe, just maybe, she is the person whose life will be linked to his – the person he has been looking for in each vision. As they take a stroll on the moonlit beach, he asks her one last time to let him show her future to her. In the end, though, it might be Daisy who offers Sam a vision of his own…

Ninth Vision of Destiny – Jack

Throughout the evening, the seer Sam Woods has shown Daisy’s friends the choices and partners that will shape their romantic lives. Now that the New Year has come, they celebrate the end of the soiree and take their first steps on a path that will lead all of them to love – and for some of them, to heartache, too.

It was heartache that caused Jack to leave the soiree earlier when he guessed that his girlfriend’s vision showed her a future without him. Now, he returns and asks to see for himself. What he discovers in the vision Woods offers him is the very thing all Special Enforcers fear: his awakening as a vampire. When the opportunity arises to kill Angela, his Sire, will he seize it and avenge his own death, or try to move on toward a future with her?

Eighth Vision of Destiny- Brad

Daisy’s soiree is slowly winding down: midnight and the New Year are approaching, and most of her friends have received visions of the one choice that will shape their romantic life. With just enough time for one more vision, it is Brad’s turn to go to the seer Sam Woods and get a peek at things to come.

Earlier in the evening, Brad’s girlfriend, Joan, was shown their married life and children, and Brad can’t wait to see what he expects will be the same idyllic future. However, he discovers something else entirely, something that leaves him – and Daisy – shocked and asking questions for which Woods has no good answers.

Seventh Vision of Destiny – Rachel

As the night advances, Daisy starts to feel under pressure. The seer Sam Woods, Daisy’s friends, even her sister all push her into accepting a vision of her romantic future. But Daisy won’t budge: she believes that there are things she shouldn’t know about her own future, and by refusing she clings to the core of who she is.

The core of Rachel’s identity is exactly what comes to light in the vision Woods gives her. She has been living a ‘normal’ life by day, and the life of a BDSM submissive by night, being very careful not to let her two worlds meet. But when, after a night of hard play, her Master offers to push their relationship into the light, making the most important decision of her life is strangely not as difficult as Rachel would have expected.

Sixth Vision of Destiny – Cathleen

Another one of Daisy’s friends has received a vision of his future from the seer Sam Woods, and that vision is so far removed from Brett’s current life that he can hardly believe it. As he forgets what he saw, Daisy wonders, what was the point of it all?

But after talking with Woods, as she realizes how much he wishes he could see what Brett did, see himself in love and loved in return, Daisy can only share his loneliness, and she could almost wish for a vision of her own — almost, but not quite.

It’s this same loneliness that pushes Cathleen to ask for her turn, and the vision Woods offers her shows her the man that will give her the companionship and love she craves — a man half her age.

Torn by the fear of how others, including her own son, will see this age difference, Cathleen has kept her relationship with Alex a secret. It is now time for her to decide if she should end it altogether, or if she can allow herself to enjoy the love she had nearly given up on finding.

A closer look at the Visions of Destiny series

This series is set in the same universe as the On The Edge and Special Enforcers series, and some characters will make small, or not so small, appearances.

What I am trying to do with the Visions of Destiny is to explore those moments that change the rest of our lives, those crossroads that seem innocuous at the time, but that transform everything. Continue reading…

Fifth Vision of Destiny – Brett

Cover for Fifth Vision of DestinyAs the evening progresses and Daisy witnesses the seer Sam Woods giving her friends visions of their future, her opinion of Woods slowly changes. Maybe he isn’t the charlatan she believed, after all, and maybe all these glimpses of other people’s happiness are harder to bear than he lets on. His admission that he never felt real love, soon echoed by her friend Brett, leaves Daisy uncomfortable enough that she eavesdrops on Brett and Woods’ conversation.

For all his fears of not finding the person he is destined to love, Brett discovers in his vision that he will fall in love with not one lover, but two. Two vampires, in fact, a man and a woman, both of them so precious to him that he wants to show his love by offering them wedding rings. But when one of them refuses to wear the ring, the perfect relationship he thought he had starts to crumble around him… or does it?

Fourth Vision of Destiny – Mike

Cover for Fourth Vision of DestinyHaving finally accepted that the visions Woods offers her friends are real, Daisy begins to wonder what the seer himself gets out of the experience. It can’t be all that pleasant, she figures, especially when he has to kiss both women and men – and doesn’t like men in that way.

Mike, on the other hand, does like men, but he has had little luck in finding Mr. Right, despite his friends’ attempts at introducing him to potential relationship interests. On the eve of Valentine’s Day, his loneliness and one drink too many cause him to flirt with a handsome stranger and ask for a one-night stand. In the morning, though, that questionable decision might turn out to be the one that will change Mike’s life for the better.

Third Vision of Destiny – Joan

Cover for Third Vision of DestinyAs Daisy witnesses her friends’ distress, she can only wonder, yet again, if visions of one’s future are more damaging than they are helpful. She tries to argue with the seer Sam Woods about it, tries to convince her friends not to go through the experience, but without any success, and she can only watch as Joan goes to Woods – watch, and hope that this vision will not break apart Joan and her boyfriend Brad.

In her vision, Joan is married to Brad, and they have two beautiful children. Everything seems perfect – except for the porn videos Joan discovers on the computer, that is. After her initial feelings of betrayal and talking about it with Brad, she realizes that, maybe, she could try to give Brad a very special Christmas gift by acting out his fantasy…

Second Vision of Destiny – Lydia

Cover for Second Vision of DestinyAs Daisy slowly starts to accept that the seer Sam Woods might not be a fraud after all, Lydia volunteers to get a glimpse of her future. Her boyfriend Jack is not too pleased by this, and as Lydia’s vision unfolds, it appears that he was right to worry.

Time has passed and broken Jack and Lydia apart, leaving Lydia in the arms of an artist, Owen. On a special Halloween night, he reminds her of their journey together through eight paintings before transforming her life by making her what he is – a vampire.

First Vision of Destiny – Alicia

Cover for First Vision of DestinyDaisy’s first mistake was to tell her friends that the famous seer Sam Woods is a family friend; her second one, to let them convince her to organize a soiree so that they may meet him. They are excited and can’t wait to be given a vision of their romantic future. Daisy, on the other hand, still doesn’t see the point in being told what Cupid is preparing for her.

One by one, Daisy’s nine friends will get a glimpse of the crucial choice, the passionate night, or the unexpected encounter that will shape the rest of their love lives. Will Daisy join them and ask Sam to reveal her future to her before the night is over?

Alicia is the first to volunteer to be shown what her future holds, maybe because she hasn’t had much luck with men so far in her life. Craving a relationship in which she would be needed, she has been visiting blood bars and allowing vampires to bite her. Those same vampires, Sam Woods shows her, could cause her to lose the man she loves more than anything…
