Order of Beverly Jenkins Books

Beverly Jenkins is an American author of historical and contemporary romance novels. Her novels feature African-American characters and are often set in periods that are often overlooked. This didn’t make it any easy for her to get published, as publishers were only looking for historical African-American novels to be set during slavery. She writes the Blessings series. Beverly was born in Detroit, Michigan and graduated from Cass Technical High School and then majored in Journalism and English Literature at Michigan State University. She lives with her family in Southeastern Michigan.

Beverly Jenkins made her debut as a published novelist in 1994 with the novel Night Song. Below is a list of Beverly Jenkins’ books in order of when they were originally released:

   I love all of Beverly Jenkins books have read ALL of them. I am a bit confused however with the order of the Le Veq series. I Know Thru the storm was published first but if you are going to present the books as a series ….. why not present them in the following order.

   Captured
   Thru the Storm
   Winds of the Storm
   Rebel

   Captured is about the original Le Veq the privateer who got this family started. So why not start with it. I included “Rebel” in the grouping because it is about Drake who is brother to Raimond and Archer. And when will we get to read about Beau and Phillipe Le Veq?
