2018 plans

December 31, 2017 by Keira Andrews 12 Comments

As 2017 draws to a close, I’m reflecting back and peering at the road forward and my writing plans for 2018. Lots of exciting projects are in the works!

This past year started slowly for me with publishing, largely because I was lucky enough to take a six-week trip through Australia with my mom. It was absolutely a dream come true. My dad had always wanted to visit Australia and never did in the end, and I’m so grateful to have shared the experience with my mom. I backpacked through Oz twenty years ago, and it was lovely to revisit some places and explore new ones.

I published a single father/kidnapping adventure, Road to the Sun, in May, republished my spy caper, The Chimera Affair, in June, and spent the summer writing, writing, writing. The last part of 2017 really ramped up after I published Kidnapped by the Pirate at the end of October.

I never know how a book will be received, and historicals tend not to sell as well as contemporary. Yet this book exceeded all my expectations, which has been a real treat. I grew up on bodice-rippers, and it was such a pleasure to write a breeches-ripper! I’m thrilled by how much readers seem to have enjoyed the story.

In November and December, I published two holiday romances, In Case of Emergency, and Eight Nights in December, which was a reworking of two old stories. I was lucky enough to have Emergency go to #1 on Amazon’s gay romance charts, which was a milestone for me and a wonderful way to close out the year. I also added a few new translations to my growing collection.

Coming down the road in 2018

  1. I’ll be re-releasing my Australian historical adventure The Station in mid-January. Dar Albert has made a gorgeous new cover I’ll be sharing with you in the next week or so!
  2. I’ll also be re-releasing two figure skating novellas, Cold War and Holding the Edge, in one new volume in early February just in time for the Olympics.
  3. I’m delighted to announce that I’ve signed a contract with Tantor to release Kidnapped by the Pirate in audio in 2018. It’s still early stages, but I’ll share more info when I have it. I’m absolutely delighted to finally be delving into the world of audio books.
  4. My first German translation, of Beyond the Sea, is coming quite soon! Stay tuned for more details.
  5. There will also be more French and Italian translations coming this year.
  6. My next new novel will be the as-yet-untitled sequel to Valor on the Move. I have about 14,000 words, and I’ll be working on it for the next couple months. Planning to release in March or April.
  7. Then I’ll be writing the third book in the Kick at the Darkness series. Yes, more Adam and Parker! I also really want to write a fourth book that would take place several years later and center on Jacob. My plan is to write these books this summer and release them in Sept and October. Fingers crossed! We’ll see how it goes.
  8. I’ll definitely be writing a Christmas romance, and I’d love to do a full novel instead of a novella.
  9. Since my former publisher, Loose Id, is closing its doors in May, I’ll have the rights back to my final book with them—Love Match. This was my very first novel, published in 2006. I will definitely be republishing it, but I want to take some time to revise and re-edit it. I think I’ve learned a lot about writing in the last 10+ years, and I’m sure Luke and Jesse’s story can be strengthened. So I’ll be poking at that when time permits, and I definitely want to have it back up for sale before the end of the year.
  10. I’ll be attending the RT convention in Reno in May and my first GRL in October in Virginia. Hope to see you there!

You know what they say about the best-laid plans, but I’m knocking on wood that everything on my list will go smoothly! Thank you so much for your support, and here’s to an outstanding 2018. Wishing you health and happiness on the road ahead. <3

p.s. I’d hoped to write a fourth novel for my Amish boys, Isaac and David, this year. It looks like it’ll be 2019, but it’s still very much on my to-do list!

French Translations

April 1, 2017 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

Bonjour! I have two new French translations now available, including the third book in my Gay Amish Romance series. Merci beaucoup to my French readers for your support and enthusiasm. <3

Passion en Arctique par Keira Andrews
Quand deux étrangers sont piégés par une tempête de neige, la chaleur monte.

Hanté par ce qu’il a perdu en Afghanistan, le Capitaine Jack Turner se retrouve à la croisée des chemins. Même si le dernier endroit où il veut être, c’est l’Arctique, la mission de routine le sort au moins de son nouveau bureau. Parti du mauvais pied avec le Ranger Canadien qui le guide à travers ce territoire interdit et dangereux, Jack aurait voulu être n’importe où ailleurs que dans la tente qu’il partage avec le Sergent Kin Carsen.

L’Arctique fait partie de l’âme de Kin, et il n’arrive pas à laisser la toundra derrière lui. Il aurait voulu vivre en tant qu’homme ouvertement gay, mais le Nord n’est pas aussi tolérant que le reste du Canada. Bien qu’il soit seul, il aime son travail de Ranger, patrouillant dans ce vaste territoire qu’il connait si bien. Toutefois, il est en terrain inconnu lorsqu’il s’agit de Jack, et quand ils se retrouvent coincés ensemble par une tempête de neige, un désir inattendu commence à s’enflammer. Bientôt, luttant pour survivre, tout ce que ces deux étrangers ont, c’est l’un l’autre.

Trouver Son Chez-Soi par Keira Andrews
Leur retour à leurs racines amish renouvellera-t-il leur foi l’un envers l’autre ?

Isaac et David n’ont jamais cru qu’ils reviendraient dans le monde amish. Mais quand le frère cadet d’Isaac se voit diagnostiquer un cancer, ils n’hésitent pas à revenir. Leur relation est branlante après que l’insécurité et la peur les aient amenés à douter d’eux, à San Francisco, et David est déterminé à faire les choses correctement. Pourtant, s’ils pensaient que la vie des « Anglais » était déroutante, leur retour à Zebulon est encore plus compliqué.

Leurs familles cherchent désespérément à les ramener au bercail, et la pression venant de la communauté augmente. Isaac et David aspirent à trouver un avenir ensemble, mais chaque jour, il devient plus difficile de cacher la vérité sur qui ils sont réellement. Ils sont pris entre deux mondes, et s’ils ne sont pas prudents, cela pourrait les séparer davantage.

Isaac et David pourront-ils trouver le chemin qui les mènera l’un vers l’autre – et trouver un endroit qu’ils pourront appeler « chez eux » ?
