This page offers tentative release dates and covers for new books as they become available
ANNOUNCEMENT:
New updates are finally here! Thank you all so much for your patience as I’ve been working to catch up after the loss of several family members last summer and traveling throughout this year! Though I fell behind on some projects, I have finally begun to catch up! Read below for updates! Because of editing, cover art, and etc, I am reluctant to post exact release dates as those are subject to change, but Revelation (Redemption 4) is the next release and will release before the end of 2015 followed by City in Ruins (Scribes 4) in January. I am now able to utilize pre-order options on sites and I will post these links as they become available to me! So excited! Hugs and love!

Dancing with the Devil synopsis
Falling ash. Subservient Hellhounds. Dark mirrors and ticking clocks. Such is the life of a daughter of Hecate living in Hell …
Monroe Jacobs isn’t your typical witch. She is strong, her powers growing with each passing day. They are powers that beckon, powers coveted by many, including the man she loves.
Luther Craig is a remorseless Demon ruler in Hell. Governing a kingdom once presided over by his mother, the she-demon Lilith, Luther has everything he’s ever wanted. Power. But his kingdom is at risk, his newfound strength a challenge to the Princes of Hell.
Theirs is a strange relationship, the witch and the Demon, full of passion and need. It’s a relationship that will be tested by the worst kind of obstacles–pride, covetousness, lust, anger, gluttony, envy, and sloth.
For in the ash-filled shadows of Hell, the Princes are preparing for war. Luther isn’t the only one who wants power and a blonde-haired witch. He’ll have to face the Seven Deadly Sins to keep both.

Hi R.K. Love your work! I was wondering if you had plans for the second book in the Legends series? I really enjoyed “The Singing River.” Also can’t wait for “Revelation” to be released.
Hi, Ashley! Thank you so much for reading and following! It means so much! Retaliation Bridge, the second book in the Legend series, is scheduled to release Fall/winter of this year, and I am so excited about it. There is already an outline for a third book in the Legend series as well. Revelation will release this summer! I am so excited that you are reading!! My love to you! Hugs!
I can’t wait to read Deliverance and Revelation!! I fell in love with the Redemption series, and my love for your writing only grew fonder with the Acropolis books. Can’t wait!!!
Thank you so much! I am incredibly excited about these books and will be posting cover reveals soon! The Redemption series holds a special place in my heart! I can’t thank you enough for reading and following! Hugs and love!
Omg!! I can’t wait to read Revelation!! I’ve read the Redemption series over and over again. Its just so amazig and it really sparked my passion for writing. I wouldnt touch another book when I finished reading Retribution because I felt as if no other book could be as spectaculer. R.K.Ryals, you are the best writer ever!! 🙂

Your words have lifted me up! Massive hugs and loads of love!
Love all of your series so far! Do you have a reading order for Dayton, Monroe, and Connor’s stories? I’d love to read in order of occurrence.

In order, they would be Redemption, Ransom, Retribution, Acropolis, The Labyrinth, Deliverance (Releasing April 2014), Cursed, Possessed, Dancing with the Devil (releasing May 2014), and Revelation (Releasing summer 2014). I am so excited that you are interested in the series! That truly means the world! Massive hugs and tons of love!
Okay, I am so hooked now on the Rededmption series, the Acropolis series, and the Thorne Trilogy!! I cannot wait for the next books but all I can find is postings saying 2014. Do you have a smaller window of time frame? 🙂

Dancing with the Devil (Thorne 3) is scheduled to release the end of May, and Revelation (Redemption 4) is scheduled to release this summer in July/August. I hope to reveal the exact day of publication once editing on each project is complete! Covers have been finalized for all of the books, and I will be posting them on the site soon! Thank you so much for reading! I can’t tell you how much that means! Massive hugs and tons of love!
Oh no! sounds like I’ll need to wait a while for book 4 of the Scribes of Medeisia series!! 😦 I think I’ll have to start on your other works to get me by.
Are you still on schedule to release Dancing with the Devil at the end of May? So excited to read more about Monroe. I did not see Deliverance released yet, did I miss it? I love your books and love the series.
Hi, Elease! I am so sorry it has taken me so long to reply! It has been one crazy summer. lol! Deliverance has released! I am so very excited about this book and about Dancing with the Devil and Revelation, which are soon to follow! I can’t thank you enough for following and for reading! Dancing with the Devil is set to release this month or in September (depending on editing), but will definitely be released no later than September.

Hi, Megan!
I can’t begin to tell you how much it means that you are following the series! It means the world! Due to an illness in my family (my daughter), the release has been delayed but not by much. It’s in the editing and cover art process now, and so I am hoping to announce it’s release very soon!
