It wasn’t that long ago that Harvest Season destroyed readers with a cliffhanger ending that made us wonder if there was any hope for Harper and Nolan. Now the wait is on for the third novel in the Seasons of Carnage series.
Brynne Weaver has taken to social media to share all the details we need right now. Not only do we have a title for the third and final novel in this series, but we also have a cover reveal and publication date!
The bad news is we have a bit of a wait on our hands. The official publication date is April 6, 2027. This is a similar wait time to the one we had for the second book. It took around nine months for the most recent release after the release of Tourist Season in September 2025. Now we have to wait around 10 months for the third installment.
When Parade chatted with Weaver, she had shared that the third book was already complete. There was hope that it would mean a slightly shorter wait time, but we all know that these dark romance novels are more than worth the wait.
Weaver shared the cover of the upcoming release in a post with the confirmed title, Hunting Season. It’s a blue cover that continues to highlight Harper and Nolan together via silhouettes. They’re holding shovels and are surrounded by jack o’lanterns, indicating that they could end up together after all!
This is despite Harper being sure that Nolan is a traitor, using her trust to gain secrets and information to use against her. What she doesn’t yet realize is that Sheriff Yates is the main protagonist, and he has manipulated everything into turning Harper and Nolan against each other. Can the two see past the torture their adversary has put them through? Is there any way through the darkness?
This is the final book in the series. While we could end up seeing Harper and Nolan mentioned in future books — as we have already seen Sloan, a.k.a. Blackbird, mentioned in Tourist Season — Weaver has shared that she would like to set novels in another universe. That was the original plan for Seasons of Carnage, but then Autumn Bower came up as a protagonist, so you just never know!
For now, preorders for Hunting Season are open, with the publication date set for April 6, 2027.
