Audiobook listener perspective: it's a nightmare. You buy an anthology for one story, and the audio is 15 hours long. Some services let you buy single stories, but not all. I wish the publishers would release the Joanna (and Ali Reynolds) short fiction as their own mini-collections. I'd pay for that. As it is, I've only heard the ones that were released as standalone Audible shorts, like 'The Old Blue Line.'

Librarian here. We get this question a lot. Our system lists the short fiction in the author's bibliography, but we don't have a definitive reading order. I usually direct patrons to the Fantastic Fiction website or to the fan-created content on Pinterest—sometimes people make nice graphical timelines. It's a common issue with long-running mystery writers. They contribute to anthologies for exposure, but it creates a headache for readers who want everything in order.

Some of these anthologies are charity projects, so even if the story isn't essential, buying the book supports a good cause. That's how I justify the purchase. I get a Joanna story plus stories from other authors I might discover, and the money goes to a literacy fund or something similar. That makes the hunt feel worthwhile beyond just completism.

The anthologies are a mixed bag. Some, like 'MatchUp' or 'FaceOff,' are all crossovers between famous detectives. Others, like 'Deadly Anniversaries,' are original stories on a theme. The Joanna story in a crossover book is written to be accessible, so you don't need deep knowledge of the other character. But it still feels like an oddity in her canon. I read them for the novelty, not for Brady series continuity.

My rule of thumb: if the novella's title includes a main character's name ('Joanna's Husband...'), it's probably important to the timeline. If it's in a themed anthology with a generic title, it's probably a standalone, fun-sized case. The former I slot in carefully. The latter I read whenever. It simplifies the decision-making process a lot. 'The Last Goodbye' is the exception—it's a crossover, so it exists outside the normal rules.

"You will walk out of this marriage as you came into it, with only your clothes. You won't get sent nor will you get a house or a car. Sign them and get lost." I fight back the tears as I signed the papers and when I look at him I almost gasp as I saw the hate he has as he look at me.

Jacob kissed Emily’s forehead and smiled at her. “You always make me happy, Amy.”
Emily smiled, but then she frowned and froze. Did she misheard what Jacob said? Jacob called her Amy. Could it be that it just slipped off the tongue? Amy Hoffner, or Amy Brooke before she married Samuel Hoffner, was Emily’s distant cousin. Samuel was one of the ten eligible billionaire bachelors in their country and also in the continent before marrying Amy. Unfortunately, Amy was also Jacob’s ex-fiancee.
“What did you say?” Emily asked, unsure if she heard him correctly.
***
Emily Brooke (twenty-two years old) fell in love with Jacob years ago. Years later, she finds out that her parents are discussing an arranged marriage for her with the man she loves.
Jacob Jefferson (thirty-five years old) starts a new life and becomes a successful billionaire, only to find he is in an arranged marriage. Though he doesn’t like it at first, he changes his mind as soon as he meets Emily.
However, the chance for a happily ever after is broken with a harsh reality when Emily finds out the real reason why Jacob accepts the arranged marriage. Later, Emily also knows about Jacob’s secret identity as a mafia’s leader.
When everything is messed up, Emily meets with her savior, Harold Montgomery. But then, Harold also has a complicated background.
With Jacob and Harold later fighting to win her heart, who will Emily choose in the end? Will she find a happily ever after?

The book is a crossover (combination) of Billionaire/Romance and Mafia genre) and a spin-off of My Beloved Billionaire, but both books can be read as stand-alone. For the most enjoyable reading experience, please read My Beloved Billionaire first.
Interesting question. Makes me want to revisit the early ones. The full sequence is Desert Heat, Tombstone Courage, Shoot/Don't Shoot, Dead to Rights, Skeleton Canyon, Rattlesnake Crossing, Outlaw Mountain, Devil's Claw, Paradise Lost, Partner in Crime, Exit Wounds, Dead Wrong, Damage Control, Fire and Ice, Judgment Call, The Old Blue Line, Downfall, Field of Bones, Missing and Endangered, Blessing of the Lost Girls.
I fell off after 'Damage Control' for a while, then binged the newer ones. 'Field of Bones' was a real return to form, incredibly dark but compelling. The series has evolved from a more traditional mystery starting point to dealing with grittier, more serial-killer oriented plots in recent years, but Joanna's voice remains consistent. It's impressive.
