I stumbled upon 'Choose Your Hard' a while back, and it really struck a chord with me—such a raw, emotional journey about resilience. From what I’ve dug up, there isn’t a direct sequel, but the author has explored similar themes in other works. For instance, their later book 'The Weight of Choices' feels like a spiritual successor, diving into different characters but keeping that gritty, life-isn’t-fair vibe.
If you’re craving more, I’d recommend checking out fan discussions—some folks have pieced together unofficial continuations or thematic connections to other indie titles. It’s one of those stories that lingers, leaving you hungry for more, even if the official follow-up doesn’t exist. Maybe that’s part of its charm, though—sometimes the best tales leave room for your imagination to run wild.
Oh, this takes me back! 'Choose Your Hard' was my gateway into darker, character-driven narratives. No sequel, but the standalone nature works in its favor—every scar and choice feels final, which amplifies the impact. The author’s style is so distinct that even their unrelated works, like 'Fractured Paths,' echo similar struggles.
I’ve seen fans debate whether a sequel would even fit; the ambiguity of the ending is kinda the point. If you loved it, try 'Beneath the Same Sky'—same publisher, different writer, but it nails that balance between hope and heartache. Honestly, I’m glad some stories know when to bow out.
A sequel? Nah, and I’m low-key relieved. 'Choose Your Hard' wraps up with this brutal honesty that’d be hard to top. The author’s blog hints they’re done with the universe, but they’ve dropped easter eggs in short stories—like a side character referencing the protagonist’s fate.
If you’re jonesing for more, anthologies like 'Broken Compass' feature similar tones. Sometimes, one perfect book is better than a diluted series.

“Admit it,” He growls, slamming my back against the wall, his body caging me in. “You like it when I piss you off.”
My breath catches as our bodies collide, heat and hatred sparking between us. I hate Dorian Hayes with every fibre of my being...so why can't I pull away?
For Noah Carter, hockey isn’t just a game–it’s an escape. The golden boy captain with a killer smile and a secret he can’t afford to slip, Noah’s carefully crafted lie is falling apart with every practice and every time he locks eyes with HIM.
HIM.
Dorian Hayes is fire on the ice with only one mission--Make it to the NHL. But there’s one person he never expected to see when he got in Bridgewater to play for the Artic-Blades.
Noah Fucking Carter.
The one person he hates with everything inside him. Cue in a plan to destroy everything Noah stands for.
But every time their bodies collide on the ice, Dorian can’t deny the pull. It’s infuriating, maddening…and addictive.
He doesn’t want to want Noah, but when their rivalry shifts from Icy stares to scalding touches, Dorian is forced to confront a truth he’s spent years skating away from: sometimes, the person you hate the most is the only one who truly sees you.
I've crushed on Ethan McKay since the moment I laid eyes on him. After a year and a half of going to the same college, he still has no clue I exist. Aside from my best friend, I'm practically invisible since I've spent the last seven years of my life purposefully living in the shadows, just waiting for my life to begin. Not that it matters. He's got his own life to live anyway. Parties to attend. Girls to see. And a father to impress so he can regain his trust, and earn back his rightful place in the family business. So, how is it that one night, one party, changes everything for the both of us?
Mia gasped as he slowly ran the tip of his finger up and down the length of her pussy; she was so primed for him, her hips jerked and a spasm inside of her made her moan.
“Nick, now. Please… I can’t wait.”
“Me neither, Mia. I want to be inside you. You’re going to feel amazing, I just know it.” ****
Nick Spencer’s life is effortless: strong drinks, stronger flirtation, and women who leave before sunrise. No promises. No regrets. No complications. He likes it that way... until Mia Ferris walks into his bar and blows his carefully detached world apart.
Mia is a writer with a cause and a dangerous amount of optimism. When a night out turns terrifying, Nick becomes her unexpected savior: bringing her home, giving her safety, and discovering that this smart, brave woman gets under his skin in ways no one ever has. Attraction was never part of the plan.
Then Mia’s latest book drags her deep into the brutal underworld of sex trafficking, where good intentions don’t protect you – and trust can be lethal. When she disappears into a nightmare of betrayal and fear, Nick has one chance to reach her.
But saving Mia may cost Nick everything... including her faith in him, and his belief that love was never worth the risk.
He kissed her over and over again, and she responded: she said yes. All female heat and need; so soft and curved against his muscle and hard planes. King kissed her like he owned her and she ached to just let him take her. Any way he wanted; as many times as she could take him.
King shifted her again, held almost her whole weight on one massive forearm, freeing his other hand to move over her now. His fingers tightened on her cheek as he kissed her, the metal of his rings cool against her flushed skin, then he moved his hand down her body. She arched when he caressed her throat and stroked down slowly. **** Naomi Abbott had it all once: talent, success, momentum. Now she runs a nonprofit art program for autistic adults and counts her days sober instead of her sales. She’s smart, beautiful, and barely holding herself together. One year into recovery, Naomi knows the rules: no chaos, no temptation, and absolutely no romance. Especially not with him.
Matt “King” Kingston is danger wrapped in muscle, a scowling ex-Marine with a garage, a shadowy side hustle, and a laser-focused obsession with Naomi. He wants her. All of her. And he’s never been good at walking away. But the closer he gets, the harder she resists... because letting King in means risking everything she’s fought to rebuild.
As trust grows and walls crack, King becomes Naomi’s anchor. Until she spirals.
When the past comes roaring back, Naomi must decide if she’s strong enough to survive it... and if King’s love can endure the wreckage.
Step 1: Go to college. Check.
Step 2: Find a job. No luck.
Step 3: Start a family. Whoa, one thing at a time.
Alicia Chambers was stuck on Step 2. No matter how many resumes she sent out, she couldn’t find a job in her dream field: phone app development. It seemed like most successful apps were started by a single inspired person in their basement, including the most recent craze, Monster Go.
If only Alicia could find her own inspiration for an app…
Drawn into the game (research, she told herself), she meets a mysterious stranger who also plays. He’s perfect for her: rich, handsome, and nerdy. However, despite formerly being in app development himself, Jacob seems to have left it all behind.
Between romantic dates and catching monsters, Alicia finds herself growing closer to the mysterious man. But when she learns something that he deliberately kept hidden, will she flee his secretive life?
Will she let him know her own secret- that she’s carrying a little gift from all their time “playing” together?
I Choose You is a standalone romance novel. If you like new adult stories, you’ll enjoy this story of two people finding love over a phone app.

Everything was going perfectly, until a car accident tore it all away from me. I want it back, and only she can help me.
At first, I think about ‘Doc’ Elsie the same way I think of every other woman. Just another possible conquest, another notch on my bedpost.
Only Elsie is different. She’s not starstruck by me. She’s not interested in my money. She’s the most real woman I’ve ever met, and those tempting curves are making it hard to stay focused on my recovery.
Now, I’ll do anything to keep her by my side. I’ll defy my manager, my coach, even lay down my career as quarterback to stay with her.
It’s third and long, and I’m gonna make my play Hard and Deep.
From New York Times bestselling author Krista Lakes comes this sexy story of sports romance!
I was totally hooked after reading 'Hard Count' and immediately went hunting for more! From what I've gathered, there isn't a direct sequel, but the author has written other sports-themed novels that feel spiritually connected. Like, if you loved the gritty football vibes and underdog energy, you might enjoy 'Fourth and Long'—it's got that same adrenaline rush but with a fresh cast.
Sometimes, though, I wonder if the lack of a sequel is a good thing. Not every story needs one, right? 'Hard Count' stands strong on its own, and honestly, I kinda love that it leaves room for imagination. Makes me think about what those characters might be up to now, without a sequel dictating it.
