Judith McNaught's Sequels trilogy -- Once and Always (1987), Something Wonderful (1988) and Almost Heaven (1990) -- shares the same late-Georgian/Regency English and Scottish historical romance world as her Westmoreland Saga, with occasional crossover characters and settings, but follows entirely separate families and heroines rather than continuing the Westmoreland line directly. Each book pairs a strong-willed heroine with a wounded or emotionally guarded aristocratic hero, the emotional template McNaught became known for across her historical romances of the late 1980s.
The name comes from how fans and booksellers grouped these three interconnected historical romances, which share McNaught's Westmoreland-era setting and occasional minor character crossovers, even though each book centers on a different couple.
Publication order: Once and Always (1987), Something Wonderful (1988), Almost Heaven (1990).
