Downrange Books in Order

Downrange is one of Riley Edwards’ newest series, published with a wider thriller audience in mind while keeping the romantic‑suspense core. Each book follows a highly trained operator whose work takes them far beyond US borders, into a tangle of international crime, espionage, and personal reckoning.

The opener, Fixed Asset, pairs Catarina Keys—a risk‑taking woman with her own covert agenda—with Jack Donovan, a former Navy SEAL now working high‑risk security. After a previous operation in Las Vegas left behind unfinished business and unresolved heat, their paths collide again when Catarina’s latest mission drops her straight into Jack’s crosshairs. What looks like a simple protection job quickly reveals a much larger conspiracy, forcing them to decide whether they are willing to trust each other with both the op and their hearts.

Fallen Hero shifts the focus to Mason Hughes, another ex‑SEAL whose rigid control is the only thing standing between him and the wreckage of an old betrayal. A dangerous assignment in Dubai brings him face‑to‑face with Calista Ventura, a woman hunting her own brand of justice against an international trafficking ring. Their overlapping agendas pull them into a partnership neither planned. As the operation escalates, Mason and Calista have to navigate not just bullets and double‑crosses, but clashing ideas about vengeance, mercy, and what a future might look like after so much loss.

Downrange leans into global stakes—desert cities, shadowy billionaires, and networks that stretch across continents—while still delivering the emotional intimacy Riley’s readers expect. The series explores what happens when people trained to go downrange, into danger, realize that the riskiest move might be letting someone in.

For readers who enjoy action‑forward plots with a strong romantic through‑line, Downrange offers a sleek, high‑octane extension of her existing universes.
