Lmao I forgot how obsessed he was with her ovulation scent 😶‍🌫️

[BookishAnya]

Is it possible to get a extended epilogue to an already extended epilogue? I don’t think I’m still quite ready to let go of these characters. This was perfectly written with staying true to both of the MC’s personalities from the original book and I can’t wait for Westin!

2.5 Stars.

Just okay. Pretty much just bdsm/smut the whole novella.

[Jade Rodway]

I wasn’t quite ready to let go of these characters that I had to read this extra 71 page book. Love a happy ending 🥰

[Tarlie Fitzpatrick]

If you loved Sovereign and are wanting a quick smut fix, you need to read this novella.

It was nice to read about how much they both had healed over the years and to see how their story continued.

This was definitely cute and I love how their story was continued but also wish there was more about them with their son and maybe a small glimpse into what their future looks like with their new baby girl!

[momaddictedtobooks]

This was a nice epilogue after Sovereign. I love Gerard and Keira!

[✨booktrovertkait ♡]

This novella is told 6 years after Sovereign. We get a glimpse into Gerard & Keira’s future as parents.. and their relationship dynamic. 🫠 I loved getting to see more of these two, it was all tied together so beautifully!! It might be short, but it packed a punch with some spice. Raya has a way with words, her writing is beautiful and poetic. 🫶🏽

This was such a beautiful treat to have an extended epilogue, love the chemistry between these two characters! 🖤

I’m so excited for Westin’s book. 🤭

[cajareads]

Everytime I read books with unworthy H characters, I had to remind myself that man like Gerard Sovereign exists and hope is not lost 🥰

A short novella about the couple in the first book, Gerard and Keira and their son, Cash six years after the book ended. God, the dirty talking in this book is absolutely filthyyyyyy. I don’t really read dom and submissive stuff anymore but it’s nicely done here. And the bonding between Gerard and Cash? Oh my lord… so freaking cute 🥹🥹🥹

2.5⭐ / 2🌶️

A little epilogue and a glimpse in the future of the couple, it was very short and I'll have to admit I would have loved to acknowledge even the slightest character development from both of them, I found their interaction a bit cold and stiffy, especially with the son 😐

[Taylor 🌙]

It’s the perfect novella, takes place a couple of years after Sovereign ends, so it’s a super cute update on the adorable little family.

It is short but well-paced and super descriptive, there’s character growth, spice, romance, and mentions of side characters from the series

[Clairsreads]

This little extended epilogue novella packed a PUNCH.
In Red Bird, we fast forward 6 years in the future and get a peek into what Gerard and Keira have been up to. What’s different and what is exactly the same 🥵🥵🥵
Short + sweet with a lil (extra) spice.

Джерард Соверен (44) и Кийра Соверен (27)

[image error]

Това е кратка спайси новела, в която срещаме Джерард и Кийра 6 години по-късно. Двамата вече имат 6 годишно момченце и решават да имат второ дете. Междувременно са все така порочно, а любовта им е по-силна от всякога.

4.5 stars – A perfect little return to Sovereign Mountain

Redbird was exactly what my heart needed after finishing Sovereign. It’s short, sweet, and so satisfying—like a bonus epilogue I didn’t know I was craving until I had it in my hands.

We jump back into Keira and Gerard’s lives six years later, and getting to see the family they’ve built on Sovereign Mountain Ranch honestly made me emotional. After everything they went through—the pain, the darkness, the slow rebuilding of trust and love—it was beautiful to see them living in the peace and joy they fought so hard for. And yes… it’s still very high heat. Raya never misses when it comes to the chemistry.

Even though it’s just a novella, it felt full and warm and right. Like catching up with old friends you never stopped thinking about.

If you loved Sovereign, don’t skip Redbird. It’s the closure, the softness, and the little spark of “happily ever after” that makes the whole journey even more worth it.

So to anyone who knows me knew how obsessed I was with Sovereign . This was an absolutely great novella to let us know how Gerard and Kiera are doing in life 6-7 years after the fact . And how they grew as people . Is it a requirement to read this novella after sovereign ? No .. but should you ? ABSOLUTELY EFFING YES 🔥 it was spicy , hot , emotional and I loved being back in this world . Gerard will forever live rent free in my head and loved getting some more of his and Kiera’s story !

[Tasha_loves_to_read]

What a perfect short and perfect read for this couple!
I will forever love them and want to read more of them. Seeing how their life is further down the road is beautiful. I do not ever want to leave this world!
I'm eagerly awaiting more in this amazing series.
I'm sad that for now we are done with Sovereign Ranch but I know we have so much more goodness to come

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Redbird is an extended epilogue of Soverign and jumps back into Keira and Gerard’s life 6 years post-novel. I loved getting to see their dynamics as parents, DOM/SUB and a husband and wife. Gerard continues to be a whole lot of cowboy and seeing his interactions will little Cash we’re heartwarming and on-brand for his character.

[Alisha]

I’m not going to rate it since it was an extended epilogue to Sovereign but I’ll just say that the author choosing to release these is amazing for fans and I loved the extended look into Keira and Soverign’s life together.

[Dot Howarth]

Super short novella to round things off , 70% of it was honestly just spice 😅
Was nice to see how the dynamic of the relationship matured

[Stacey(TotalBookAddicts)]

The perfect extended epilogue I needed because I wasn't ready to say goodbye to Gerard. But this was perfect.

[Erica]

It was aight but I really want Westin’s story now.

Amazing follow-up novella to this couple!

[Charmaine]

A nice little glimpse into their “now” lives and a whole lot of spice 🔥

[Cyndi Murakami]

Spicy little novella

This is a continuation of Sovereign (1.5) so read it first! Just as spicy and delicious as book 1! Can't wait to read Westin!

[Jelizareads]

A quick read of Kiera and Gerard’s little family Cash and baby Ella 💙

[Rileigh Batteiger]

3.5. Understand it is an extended epilogue so doesn’t give you a lot. Provided insight into what next book in series will be.

[Brynn]

A short and sweet extended happy ending to the first book
