Dark Love Books in Order

The Dark Love series is the foundation of Kat T Masen's interconnected Edwards universe. Set largely in Sydney, it begins as a forbidden first-love story between Charlotte "Charlie" Edwards and Lex, her best friend's older brother, and grows into a multi-book family saga about power, grief, and second chances.

In Chasing Love, Charlie is ready to marry safe, steady Julian Baker when Lex walks back into her life as a ruthless billionaire. Their teenage history and his sudden reappearance blow up the life she thought she wanted, setting off a love triangle that cuts across families, careers, and continents.

Chasing Us picks up after an impulsive decision to marry and finally choose each other. Lex and Charlie are determined to build a future and a family, but tragedy, unresolved guilt, and a furious ex-fiancé make their happily-ever-after anything but simple. The book leans hard into the question of whether love alone is enough once the real world steps in.

From there, the focus widens. Chasing Her and Chasing Him shift the spotlight to Julian Baker and Adriana, Lex’s fiercely loyal sister. Julian is the polished golden boy whose perfect image hides a lifetime of loss, while Adriana is a woman trying to hold her family together even as her own life falls apart. Their unlikely connection forces everyone in the Edwards circle to pick sides.

The later books, Chasing Fate and Chasing Heartbreak, follow Noah Mason and the people who orbit him. A notorious playboy cousin, Noah stumbles from a dare into an enemies to lovers tangle with a Hollywood star and her sharp-tongued assistant, then into a complicated friends-to-lovers story that stretches from Paris boardrooms to painful late-night confessions. These stories push the theme that love can be both a refuge and the source of your biggest mistakes.

Across all six main novels, Dark Love stays close to its characters' emotional fallout. Affairs, grief, bad decisions, and controlling families all have real, long-term consequences, and side characters grow into leads in their own right. Companion pieces like Lex and Twelve Tales of a Snowed-in Christmas circle back to fill in missing moments and show how the Edwards family keeps fighting for each other long after the original triangle is resolved.
