Chronicles of Abigail Jones Books in Order

This is Grace Callaway's Gothic side. The Chronicles of Abigail Jones blend Victorian romance, eerie atmosphere, and supernatural menace, so the love story is always sharing the page with something unsettling moving just out of sight.

At the center is Abby, a shy young woman whose visions have made her feel strange and unsafe for most of her life. When she is left alone and needs work, she takes a position at Hope End, a remote estate that looks like refuge from the outside and trouble from the inside. The house is full of clues and bad feelings, portraits, rumors, locked-up history, and servants who seem to know more than they say.

Then there is Hux, the Earl Huxton. He has the kind of reputation that makes people whisper, rich, widowed, handsome, and shadowed by questions about his first wife and his own reckless behavior. What matters more, though, is that he is carrying grief, guilt, and a private mission for justice. Abby and Hux are both used to hiding the parts of themselves that feel dangerous, which is a big reason their connection lands so hard.

Nothing at Hope End stays buried for long.

The setting does a lot of the work here. This is a world of candlelit corridors, forbidden rooms, lonely countryside roads, and an estate that seems to breathe in secrets. The story also reaches into darker corners of Victorian London, so the mood shifts between manor-house dread and a city full of temptation, vice, and threat. That mix gives the series its distinct feel: romantic, yes, but also uncanny and a little feral.

If you like historical romance that leans into mystery and the supernatural, this is the branch of the Callaway world that goes there most directly. The class gap matters. The danger is not just social. Abby is not merely trying to win love or solve a puzzle. She is trying to understand what is happening inside her own mind and body, while Hux is chasing forces that feel older and darker than either of them.

It is darker than the other series. That is the appeal.

The series opens with Abigail Jones, and it works well if you want a self-contained entry into Callaway's world that still feels larger than one courtship. Expect a Gothic rhythm, a haunted-house mood, and two characters pulled toward each other while the shadows close in.
