Sara Cate's 'Highest Bidder' is part of the 'Salacious Players Club' series, so the connection to sequels is through the series' structure rather than a direct line from that specific book. Think of the series as a set of interconnected standalones, each focusing on a different couple within the same world of the exclusive club. The book that directly follows in publication order after 'Highest Bidder' is 'Give Me More', which centers on Hunter, another member of the club, and his journey into a polyamorous relationship. It expands the club's dynamics in a completely new direction.
After that, 'Praise' is the next installment, and it actually became a massive hit, arguably putting the series on the map for many readers. It features Charlotte, who works at the club, and her complex relationship with her much older, stern boss. The tone shifts into a daddy kink dynamic that explores power exchange and emotional vulnerability. The following book, 'Mercy', delves into the story of Garrett and his struggles, introducing even darker and more intense themes of redemption and consensual non-consent.
So, while there isn't a 'Highest Bidder Part 2', the sequels are all about exploring the lives of other characters orbiting the same glamorous, secretive world. Reading them in order lets you see cameos and background moments for characters like the ones from the first book, which is a fun treat for series fans. I found the way Sara Cate builds out this universe with such varying, intense relationships to be the main draw, with each sequel offering a completely new emotional and thematic landscape from the one before.

“You,”He leered and smirked at us. “Both of you. Get up.”
I shook my head, shuddering, “Please… Please don’t–”
He grabbed me by my arm and dragged me up to my feet.
He grabbed Angelia with his other hand and proceeded to drag us towards the door.
Angelia had gone all but silent as she was pulled along like a ragdoll. Her eyes seemed glazed over.
My heart raced.
“P-Please. I can give you gems! Jewelry! What about lunar flowers? We have them all. If you’d just take us back–”
“How are you going to bargain with something that’s not yours anymore?” He scoffed, “Move it. The boss doesn’t like to be kept waiting.”
Tears streamed down my face. We were brought out of the dungeon into another section.
There were no windows and the scent of sweat and tears filled the air.
The man who brought us there shoved us inside and closed the door behind us as a fat, whale of a man turned towards us.
I could tell by his stature and his scent that he was either human or his wolf was weak.
He chuckled and licked his lips as he approached. He stopped at me first, grabbing my chin and leaning close to take a deep breath of my scent. He chuckled as I recoiled and shuddered in disgust.
Then, he stopped at Angelia, tracing a hand over her cheek.
“I love the obedient ones. Welcome girls, to my dungeon. You will call me, Dan.”

I’ve been obsessively following 'Highest Bidder' since its release, and let me tell you, the hype around a potential sequel or spin-off is real. The original story left us with such a gripping cliffhanger—those last few chapters had me glued to my screen, wondering if the protagonist’s gamble would pay off or blow up in their face. From what I’ve gathered digging through forums and author interviews, there’s no official sequel yet, but the creator has dropped hints about expanding the universe. They mentioned loving the side characters enough to explore their backstories, which could mean a spin-off focusing on the rival bidders or even the shadowy auction house itself. The world-building is so rich, with all those underground networks and morally gray alliances, that it’s practically begging for more stories.
The fandom’s been buzzing with theories too. Some think a sequel would delve into the fallout of the final bid—maybe a power struggle between the wealthy elites or the protagonist’s descent into corruption. Others are rooting for a prequel about the auction house’s origins, which would be a goldmine for drama. The author’s style leans into high-stakes tension and intricate plotting, so whatever comes next will likely double down on those twists. Until then, I’ve been rereading the original and picking up fanfics to scratch that itch. If you loved the ruthless bidding wars and the psychological mind games, keep an eye on the author’s social media—they’re teasing something big.
