It is my intention! I'm working on a different project at the moment, but it's on the sticky note and coming together in my head (fingers crossed).
Cate C. Wells
Thanks for reading! I'm so stoked that you're enjoying the books. I have every intention of writing Harper's story, but I'm having trouble hearing her voice. I'm not giving up, but I will accept good vibes. :)

(view spoiler)[I see Abertha's story as kind of capstone to the series, and I'm not exactly sure how it all plays out yet. My intention is to have her end up with Madog, but that man is going to need some God level redeeming... (hide spoiler)]

I am so stoked that you liked it! I just finished writing a *secret group project* that we'll be announcing next month (although it won't release for a while). I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to write next. I usually start the story speaking stongest and see if I get traction. If you subscribe to my newsletter on , you can get updates when I decide what I'm writing and then how I'm struggling, lol. Also cat pics. Thanks for reading. (I do love writing a psychopath, too, although I seem to be in my golden retriever era.)

(view spoiler)[Hello ! Just wanted to say that i've just finished your underboss insurection books and i'm obsessed with lucca, can we get a little information on his book ? (hide spoiler)]
Cate C. Wells
Thanks for reading! I have an intention to write a Lucca, Tomas, and Sara MMF book, but I'm not sure where it is in the queue at the moment. Stay tuned...

(view spoiler)[Hi Cate! On your website, you mention that you plan to write a Five Packs book for Seth and Drona. Will they be a couple? Thank you! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Hi, Susan. Thanks for reading! They will be together, and actually, they'll be my only couple who don't end up with their fated mates. (There is no redeeming Drona's baby daddy. No way.) It'll probably be a novella. Hope to write it in 2025, but we shall see how the stars align. Happy New Year and happy reading! -Cate (hide spoiler)]

Hey, thanks for reading. It is my intention to write Kennedy's story. Send good vibes and prayers for inspiration. :)
Cate C. Wells
I do want to write a story for Brice (and the Sunshiner), but I'm not quite sure how it unfolds quite yet. They're both reserved, and that's always the trickiest relationship to write. You need a real firecracker of an inciting incident to set things off.
Cate C. Wells
Okay, I am nervous to say this, but TENTATIVELY (so very tentatively), December 26, 2024. Send me good vibes. :)
Cate C. Wells
Oh, thank you! I actually have a novella, Made Man, coming out December 5th in the anthology Sin & Snowflakes. It's available for pre-order now. (It's the story of Dario and Posy's daughter, Mira.)
I have one more book planned for the series---Lucca, Tomas, and Sara's story. Not sure when I'll write it, but the story is there, waiting. :)

I'm so stoked that you're loving the books! I do lightly plot the beats/scenes of the story, but then I'm always changing things as I learn the characters and their backstories. In Tyrant Alpha, I had NO IDEA about what happened when they were children until it kind of came to me as I was writing. That was magic, and it doesn't happen a lot. (I wish it did.) I have a writing coach who I work with every month, and we go back and forth on a chapter, honing my skills. When the book is finished, it goes to my coach, my editor, and beta readers, and then I polish it like a diamond until I can't stand it anymore, and then it goes to my proofreader(s). I'm really lucky to have a team of reliable, skilled editors. I'm blessed. :)

I'm so stoked that you loved Twitch. It has a very special place in my heart. I first learned about the Vietnam War from a woman's perspective in a novel called Flower Shadows by Terry Farish that I came across when I was young. The book was actually about a "Doughnut Dolly," but the place and time stuck with me for decades. When I got the idea for Twitch, I actually watched a lot of the videos of women telling their stories at the Vietnam Women's Memorial in Washington, DC. On Memorial and Veterans Day each year, women gather and share their memories. There is an archive on their website at vietnamwomensmemorial.org. Click on "Our Stories" to watch and have tissues at hand.

(view spoiler)[Kennedy will definitely get a story, but I'm not sure when. I'm writing Annie and Justus right now, and I'm alternating series, and.....plot spoiler........................... I know Kennedy's HEA is Tye, but I'm not entirely sure yet exactly how it goes down. Readers will find out why she is "blessed." I can tell you now that people are hateful toward her for the usual reason...fear of what they don't understand and a desire to put those who are different down so they can be higher on the hierarchy. Also, her wolf is one scary, threatening dude, so there's that... (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I'm so happy to hear some love for Zita! I wrote her from experience, not with orthorexia, but with another ED. A thought I've had---and a conversation I've had a few times with readers---is that her thoughts around food are probably familiar to the majority of women raised in diet culture. The incessant counting, the restriction, the inevitable loss of control, the shame, the self flaggelation, the "earning" food with exercise, the hiding, the fraught nature of eating in front of others...I don't know any women who wouldn't recognize the behavior. Now do they want to read it in their romance... Anyway, thanks for reading! Stay tuned for news on the Underboss Insurrection front coming soon. (hide spoiler)]
Cate C. Wells
Yes, definitely. He's a villain, so that's going to be fun. I've been on a cinnamon roll streak. It'll be nice change of pace to do a bad guy again.
Cate C. Wells
I feel like Deja needs to get her degree and see the world first, lol. Kiss a lot of frogs, break a lot of hearts. So maybe if I do a second generation? I'm so stoked that you're loving the books. I think maybe I'm writing Jesse next in the series?

Oh, I like that!

I have a whole novel in mind for her! I think it might be the last in the series, though... Let me know if you want me to spoil her HEA.
Cate C. Wells
I'm so happy that you're enjoying the books! I am working on The Wild Wolf's Rejected Mate, Annie and Justus' story, right now. There's no cheating, but I wouldn't say there is grovel, either. There is reconcilliation, which is less fun, I know. :) I am also writing a suprise mafia novella for an anthology. That might actually be it for 2024 until I get a burst of superhuman speed. After the mafia novella, I might write Harper or Jesse Wall or a standalone I've been thinking about. Stay tuned...
Cate C. Wells
Thanks! Harper is being difficult, lol. I haven't written her story yet, but she's on the list. Send good vibes. :)
Cate C. Wells
I definitely have a story in mind for them, but it's *dark*, so I have to be in that headspace. It's on the future project stick note, though, for sure. Thanks for reading!
