Thank you for giving another glimpse of Faisal on your web site. I love them, you've spun the best and most well written diverse relationship I have ever read. I still can't get enough of them, will we get more of them?

Tal Bauer Hi Gwen!

YES! Faisal and Adam have (at least) two more books on the way. One, set after the EO series, with their life in Bahrain together, and another as a prequel story. What happens between all the Bytes that are on my site? What ties them all together? What happened that led up to EOTS?

I love writing Faisal and Adam, and I want to write about them for many years to come. <3

Thank you!!

I just finished Hush, and it immediately got put in my 'Favorites' folder in Goodreads. I LOVED it! I elongated the reading process for three days, because I didn't want it to finish. Annnd.....I was hoping for more? I would love another book in the series, and my sister would too! Any chance of a sequel? Having read Hush, and discovering how awesome it was, I just started reading Enemies of the State. ♡

Tal Bauer Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed it! Hush is very near and dear to me.

My next writing project will actually be Kris's story, set in the Hush universe. He's got a lot to say! I hope you enjoy his story as much as you enjoyed Tom and Mike's!

Thank you! <3

Is there any possibility of another 'Tom & Mike' (Hush) book in the future? Cause I'd love to read them!

Tal Bauer I am working on Kris's book, set in the same universe! :) They will feature a small bit in that story. :)

Hi Tal! I see Amazon has a new edition of Interlude: First Noel but they have it as Executive Office #4 and we have the older 2016 version as Executive Office #1.5 here on GR. What number in the series should it be? Thank you! Shannon

Tal Bauer Hi!

Interlude can be read at any time after Book 1. Chronologically, it takes place semi-between Enemies of the State and Enemy of My Enemy. It is NOT critical reading to understand the overarching plot of the series, which is why it was put as Book 4. It's an extra story, a holiday story, and something fun and special about the guys. :)

Some people like to read it in between EOTS and EOME. Some people like to read it in between EOME and EW. Some people like to read EOTS, EOME, and EW all the way through, and then read Interlude as an after-series warm hug. It is entirely up to the reader what they want. :)

Hope this helps!

Any chance your books will be made into audiobooks?

Tal Bauer Hi! Yes! Enemies of the State is going to be produced in 2018, and Hush is in negotiation with a major audiobook producer. :) So, great things ahead! :D Thanks!

Will your other backlist be available direct, like Hush is? I just bought Hush and am looking forward to reading it. I like the idea of reading suspense/thriller rather than straight (pun not intended) romance.

Tal Bauer Hi! At this point, I don't think I will offer the backlist on my website. I will release future books with a direct purchase option, and then move them into Amazon after a set time. I am trying that out to make it easily accessible for everyone, as best I can. :) Thanks!

I just finished (and really enjoyed!!!) Hush... what's next? And do you have any plans for Kris, like him getting a story of his own?

Tal Bauer Hi! Thank you! YES, I do plan on writing Kris's story... in fact, it's the next story to be released! I hope to release it in Fall 2017.

Thanks for asking!

Hi Tal! Your Executive Office series is fabulous and Enemy within was such a great conclusion!! Thank you for writing such an awesome portrayal of a demisexual character in Jack! That was actually one of my favorite aspects of this series. Any chance that this series will be available in audio? I'd love to be able to hear these characters come to life!

Tal Bauer Thank you! The portrayal of a demisexual individual was extremely important to me. I'm glad it resonated with you, too! <3

And, yes! Joel Froomkin will be producing the audiobook of EOTS in Spring 2018!

Hello! I just finished reading all the books from the executive office series. My question is very common. But is there a chance for a spin-off? Like a book with Adam and Faisal or Sasha and Sergey? Thank you.

Tal Bauer Absolutely! I plan on writing another trilogy for the gang - Jack and Ethan, Sergey and Sasha, Faisal and Adam, and a few more surprises as well... :)

I LOVE the 'The Executive Office' series! I was wondering if 'Enemy Within' is the last book in the series? Because I'd love to read more - short stories or full length!

Tal Bauer Hi! So glad you enjoyed the series! Yes, Enemy Within is the last full-length book in the series. However, I post weekly short stories on my website (talbauerwrites.com) and plan to write some spin offs in the future. :) This won't be the last you'll hear from the guys. <3

Is Enemy Within the last book of this series? If yes, can we expect a spin-off on Sergey and Sasha?? I would love to see how they are doing after Sasha finishes his astronaut training and comes back to Sergey ^_^ and last but not the least, thank you for writing this amazing series

Tal Bauer Enemy Within IS the last book in the series. There will be some spin offs and stand alones with these characters in the future, yes. But, the series is now complete. :)

I can't let go of Sergey & Sasha just yet, though. They - and Adam and Faisal - will definitely have stories of their own.

Planning on writing another series yet? You have a wild imagination, I think dystopia or science fiction, black ops, or dark theme novels might really suit you.

Tal Bauer Thank you Ericka. I'm glad you enjoyed the series. I am planning on writing a few stand alone novels and then maybe begin another series. :)

Enemy Within was amazing, it totally exceeded my (high) expectations and left me craving moremoremore. Is there going to be more? And are you going to keep sharing extra "Bauer's bytes" on your website?

Tal Bauer The Executive Office series is complete, BUT, I do plan on spinoffs and one-shots with the couples... and maybe a reunion adventure or two down the line. :)

And yes! Definitely will keep up the Bauer's Bytes! I love them!

Glad you enjoyed the story! Thanks so much for reading! <3

Just finished book three Enemy Within, bloody awesome thanks so much for your wonderful series, it's on my keeper shelf. I though you might have alluded to the possibility of another book, is there another planned? Also if there is book four, please don't throw our favourite support character ( you know whom I'm talking about ) under the bus doing it, that would be a total fan girl cry fest.

Tal Bauer LOL! I'm not sure you who mean as the fav support character. I love them all! :)

I'm glad you enjoyed the series! Thanks so much!

I just finished Enemies of the State and Interlude in the past few days. I loved them both so much and am looking forward the next two. I love Ethan and Jack. Love the presidential angle!! I have no idea how I never heard about these books earlier because I am always looking for new stuff to read? Good thing someone mentioned you somewhere in an email I got last week!!

Tal Bauer Hi Jennifer,

So glad you enjoyed the novels! Happy Reading through the rest of the series!! :)

My heart is pounding, I can't seem to catch my breath. Am I having a heart attack? No, I just finished the hopefully NOT last book in the Executive Office series. Your story is a true action drama. I can almost see this story unfold on the big screen. Please tell me that there is more on the horizon for these amazing characters. Will you please give us more?

Tal Bauer MAN, I would LOVE to see this on the big screen. I'm thinking a miniseries... Netflix or HBO. :)

As for more for the characters... well, we'll have to wait and see... ;) ;) ;)

Hi, Tal! Do you plan to publish the special edition of Enemies of the State in other platforms? I have trouble buying from Amazon and then converting the file to epub. I would really appreciate it if you considered Payhip or similar platforms. Btw, congrats on your re-release and your upcoming release <3 Love your stories to pieces.

Tal Bauer YES!! I am actually working on Smashwords today and looking at PayHip for my site directly. I will come back and let you know directly when it's set up for purchase outside of Amazon. :)

Love is such a difficult thing to explain, I your books only make it more difficult! Haha, but I liked them all. Have you experienced love, I mean, do you put a lot of your personal experiences in your books?

Tal Bauer I do. Much of Jack and Ethan are based on my husband and myself. How they interact... and how they fell in love. :) I'll leave it at that for now...
