 ''A Pirate's Passion'' brings a new element to the Republic universe, with the introduction of the aristocratic gentry class. Tera d'Olzon is a poor little rich girl trying to run away from the corruption that her monied class revels in, while the honourable pirate, Gilthen Ahn, finds himself coming up with a scheme to impersonate that same gentry class in order to get his hands on as much money as possible.
-Her latest release, and first contemporary, ''Guarding His Body'', while striving for a lighter tone of romance, turns the usual trope of bodyguard upside down, with a female guarding the male. It is the first in a planned 3-book series.

-Her works take place in three universes to date. The '''Fusion''' is more like a dysfunctional utopia. The plots set in the Fusion tend to span planets and their politics. Actions of characters have consequences far beyond themselves. Stories set in the Fusion include ''The Commander's Slave'', ''Combat!'', ''War Games'' and ''Genesis''. Humans don't enter into this universe; Augustin is not sure if Earth has even been discovered by the Fusion. Augustin readily acknowledges the influences of Star Wars and Iain M Banks in this universe.

 The '''Republic''' is a human-led and human-dominated coalition, with all its associated bigotry, conniving and corruption. Stories of Republic characters are tighter and more intimate, relating how people work within an essentially rotten society. Stories in this universe include ''On Bliss'', ''Prime Suspect'' and ''A Pirate's Passion''.

	Augustin has also written a space opera (no romance), entitled ''Genesis: Qolari Diplomatic Corps''. Here, we have another young woman eager to escape the suffocation of her homeworld. But it's not poverty Alshandiel Dolrahn is escaping, but the rigid Qolari caste system. When she joins the more outward-looking government organisation, the Department of Other Matters (DOM), she thinks she has found redemption. But DOM is a different kind of trap, and it has its own ways of holding onto its recruits.		Augustin has also written a space opera (no romance), entitled ''Genesis: Qolari Diplomatic Corps''.
