With only four days on the Prime Video catalog, “Maxton Hall” has become the new romantic drama hit. It is based on the book “Save Me” by Mona Kasten, one of the most acclaimed writers of young adult literature in Germany and other countries across Europe.

Since the massive success of the series, everyone has been asking about her entire body of work. Apart from the novel that inspired “Maxton Hall,” she has also written other outstanding stories such as “Lonely Heart” and her “Again” pentalogy.

But now, the real question we’ve all been wondering: Does Mona Kasten have more books that could expand the universe of “Maxton Hall” on Prime Video? Here, check out what the author did with the story of Ruby Bell and James Beaufort.

Does Save Me have a sequel?

Luckily for you, Maxton Hall fans, Mona Kasten has not only written one, but two additional books to “Save Me,” completing a whole trilogy. In both of them, the relationship of the protagonists will be put to the test in very complex ways.

The second book is called “Save You,” and its tagline reads “Only forgiveness can save you.” From it, we can tell that this installment depicts the first significant hardship that Ruby and James have to overcome, forcing them to decide whether to fight for their love or give up.

The third book is “Save Us,” and its tagline carries much more suspense: “Only love can save us.” This final part narrates an obstacle that puts Ruby’s dreams and aspirations at stake, with James deeply involved in its cause.

With the success that the first six episodes of “Maxton Hall” are enjoying, the likelihood of a second season is quite high, which means we could see the remaining books translated to the small screen.

Nevertheless, if something were to cancel this production, Mona Kasten has two other franchises that are also hugely successful all over the world. In fact, “Save Me” is not even the most famous one. The “Again” book series holds that title, with five parts!
