Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is there a reading order of your books?Yes. You can find it here.
-
Can I read your books out of order?Yes. While the series are interconnected, they can be read independently. I do recommend reading them in order to avoid minor spoilers, but it’s perfectly fine to hop between independent series as long as you follow the order within that particular series.
-
Do all your books take place in the same universe?Yes. All my books take place in the same #Rinaverse.
-
Will you write an epilogue for the Legacy of Gods series?No. That will make the parents/grandparents too old and I want them to remain in this age forever.
-
Will there be a series for Royal Elite's second generation?Yes. The series is called Legacy of Gods and all the books are interconnected standalones. You can start with God of Malice.
-
Will you translate your books to other languages?My books have been translated into over 13 languages, with many more on the way. You can find them here. Be sure to check back periodically as the list is constantly updated.

-
Will you write a book about *insert character here*?The short answer is no. Unless I announce that I’m writing a book for a specific character, it’s not happening. I understand that many readers are intrigued by side characters and want more of their stories, but if those characters don’t speak to me, I won’t write it. I simply refuse to force a story, and trust me—you wouldn’t want a story that isn’t born out of pure passion.
-
Who are the characters who won't get books?There are too many to mention, but I’ll list the ones I get asked about most often. The characters below won’t be getting a full book. However, there’s a possibility of a short story for some of them. Remington Astor & Ariella Nash Maya Sokolov & Ilya Ethan Steel & Agnus Hamilton Maks & Yuri Karina & Viktor Akira & Ren Caroline & Matteo Yan Zachariah Sterling
-
Will there be more books from the mafia world?Yes.
-
Will you do a family tree/graphic for all interconnected characters?At this time, no. If I find a compact way of doing it in the future, I will. I do, however, have a family character tree for Legacy of Gods.
-
What are you working on? Is there a coming soon schedule?Yes, you can find that here.
-
What's your writing process?Can intense be used here? I usually start with an abstract idea and characters in my head, and I let them sit there for months—sometimes even years. The longer they stay in my mind, the better they develop. My plotting process begins in my head, where I form a general idea of how the story will unfold. Then I jot down a few notes and dive straight into writing. I get to know my characters better as I write them, and I’m often surprised by how differently they translate on the page compared to how they originally lived in my head. I’m very goal-oriented, so once I start writing, my focus is on reaching the finish line. This means I sometimes leave out descriptions or details to get to the end more efficiently. Afterward, I go through the draft about three times before sending it to my betas and editors. Then, I revise it at least three more times before it’s finalized. When I’m writing a book, it tends to consume my life. I eat, drink, and sleep while thinking about the main characters, and it can get intense since I’m a bit of a method writer. I wish it weren’t so draining, but alas, that’s just how it is for me. To avoid burnout, I make sure to take multiple breaks between books to reset and recharge.
-
Do you have muses for your characters?No, it’s extremely hard for me to picture an actor or a model while writing. I usually have a clear mental image of the character and stay true to that. I also like giving readers the freedom to imagine the character however they see fit, whether it’s a specific actor, model, or their own mental image. I do have Pinterest boards that capture the general mood of the stories, which you can find here.
-
Are there any tropes you'll never write?Cheating, sharing, and multiple partners.
-
Will you write more M/M books?Yes. You can find all my MM books here.
-
Any advice to aspiring authors?I truly believe every author’s journey is unique, so what works for one person might not resonate with someone else. If I had to give one piece of advice, it would be this: Write what you love so that you’re part of your own target audience. If you’re passionate about it, chances are others will be, too. Don’t blindly follow trends, but if you do, make sure to add your own twist. Most importantly, find your voice and stay true to it.
-
Do you do signed paperbacks/merchDue to wrist strain, I rarely sign paperbacks personally. However, you can find digitally signed paperbacks here. As for merchandise, I license third parties, and you can find them here.
-
Will you share more about yourself?Aside from what’s shared in the 'About' section, I prefer to stay behind the scenes. I’m extremely private and would rather let my books take the spotlight instead of myself.
-
Will you ever attend a signing?At the moment, no. For privacy reasons.
-
Where can I find the old Legacy of Gods covers?They’re indefinitely out of print and have been replaced by the publishers’ covers. You can try finding them in reseller or trade groups, but I strongly discourage overpriced reselling—please don’t put yourself under financial strain to own specific versions. Additionally, only purchase a book if you see an actual image of it, preferably with a date stamp if necessary, as there are many counterfeit, illegally printed versions that look and feel cheap.
-
Where can I find model covers?Since some of my books are now distributed by publishers, I no longer offer model covers. They're indefinitely out of print.
-
Where's Team Zero series?Team Zero series has been unpublished as of May 2021. There are no current plans to pick it up again. You can still grab the paperbacks from here (scroll the the end).
-
Where's Ruin? What about the Rhodes series?Ruin was unpublished and is on hiatus indefinitely. The Rhodes' series is not in plans for the near future.
-
Where's the Hate & Love Duet?As of February 2022, the Hate & Love duet by Rina Kent and Isabella Starling has reached the end of its contract and is now unpublished. There are no plans to re-publish it.
