Culpable Series Books in Order

Culpable Series by Mercedes Ron is a Spanish-language Young Adult romance trilogy that became one of the most talked-about YA series in the Spanish-speaking world — a story of forbidden attraction, family secrets, and the particular intensity of teenage love complicated by circumstances that make it genuinely dangerous. Ron writes with the breathless pace and emotional heightening that define the best YA romance.

The series follows a romance between protagonists whose families are connected by a darkness neither fully understands — a setup that creates natural dramatic tension and gives the relationship genuine stakes beyond the romantic. Ron handles the family dynamics and the revelation of secrets with real plotting skill, making the trilogy's escalating revelations feel earned rather than arbitrary.

Ron emerged as a standout voice in Spanish YA romance through the success of the Culpable series, which built an enormous following among teenage readers in Spain and Latin America before crossing into international markets through translation and streaming adaptations. Her ability to capture the emotional intensity of adolescent experience resonates deeply with her core audience.

Begin with the first volume and read in order — this is a continuous trilogy. Essential for fans of Spanish-language YA romance and for readers of the Wattpad-to-published tradition of online romance fiction. Comparable in tone and audience to Anna Todd's After series.
