About the Lust & Lies series

Lust & Lies is an early Kate Stewart dark-romance duet: Sexual Awakenings (2014) and Excess (2015). Both books lean into the higher-heat, morally complicated territory Stewart would return to in her later Predator and Prey duology.

Frequently asked questions

How many books are in the Lust & Lies series?

Two confirmed: Sexual Awakenings (2014) and Excess (2015).

What order should I read Lust & Lies in?

Publication order: Sexual Awakenings, then Excess.

Is there a third Lust & Lies book?

Some sources list a third entry, Predator & Prey: The Phoenix and The Fire, as Lust & Lies #3, but that title appears to be an omnibus bundling Stewart's separate Predator and Prey duology with her standalone novel The Phoenix and The Fire, rather than a new, distinct Lust & Lies book -- it is not added here to avoid double-counting.

Is Lust & Lies connected to Predator and Prey?

They share a similar dark-romance tone and a later crossover omnibus title, but Lust & Lies and Predator and Prey are tracked here as two separate series.
