Anniversary edition
An anniversary edition is a special reissue of a book published to mark a milestone since its original release, often featuring bonus material, refreshed design, or minor revisions. It celebrates the title for fans and collectors and can reintroduce the work to new readers.

Bridge novella
A bridge novella is a short work released between main books in a series that fills gaps, resolves loose threads, or transitions the story from one major arc to the next. It’s longer than a short story but shorter than a full-length novel and often focuses on character moments or plot connective tissue.
Cliffhanger
A cliffhanger is a storytelling device that ends a chapter, episode, or scene at a moment of high tension or uncertainty to keep the audience eager for what happens next. It deliberately leaves a key question unresolved so readers or viewers come back for the next installment.
Coda
A coda is a short concluding scene or section that gently closes a story’s emotional arc, often giving readers a final mood or glimpse of what comes next. In interactive or serialized romance, codas deliver bite-sized closure tailored to each ending.
