New City Books in Order

New City looks less like a tight serial and more like a shared-world set of futuristic romances. The linked books, including Passion Model, Driven, and Anything You Want, suggest a common setting where technology, image, ambition, and desire all run close together.

That shared-world feel is part of the charm.

Instead of asking you to follow one couple across every installment, the series seems built to let different characters take the lead while the city itself provides continuity. That usually means each story can focus on a new angle, one pair might be caught up in status and performance, another in motion and danger, another in the blunt honesty of wanting too much.

Because this shelf sits on the more speculative side of Hart’s catalog, it works well for readers who like romance with a slightly heightened world around it. The science fiction elements do not replace the emotional core. They give it a sharper frame.

If you are curious about Hart’s futuristic side but do not necessarily want the more suspense-heavy structure of The Protector, New City is a good middle ground. Think connected romances, quick hits of world-building, and a city setting that seems built for longing, reinvention, and trouble.
