About the Saints of Denver series
Saints of Denver is Jay Crownover's spinoff of her Marked Men series, moving to the next generation and social circle within the same Denver world with a somewhat more grown-up, contemporary-romance register than the earlier New Adult books. Leveled (2015) opens the series, followed by Built and Charged (both 2016), then Riveted and Salvaged (both 2017), each following a different member of a found-family friend group navigating adult careers alongside their romances.
Crownover carries over familiar faces from Marked Men in cameo appearances, giving longtime readers continuity while the Saints of Denver cast -- artists, tattoo-shop owners, and blue-collar professionals -- gets its own fully independent five-book arc.
