New holiday romance!

November 23, 2022 by Keira Andrews 2 Comments

Will and Michael’s sweet and steamy romance is now available in ebook, print, and audio narrated by the amazing Greg Tremblay/Boudreaux!

If you loved Seth and Logan’s journey from stranger fake boyfriends to HEA in The Christmas Deal, you’ll definitely want to peek in on them in this book! I initially hadn’t planned on writing more in this universe, but I kept thinking about the characters. Will and Michael really *leapt* into my heart (see what I did there?), and I hope their holiday story will bring you comfort and joy.

Slow-burn bisexual awakening with lots of steam

My new figure skating romance is out now! I was inspired to write Henry and Theo’s story after the last world championships in Stockholm in March 2021. It was so wonderful to see a full competition again (even if there was no audience). Their romance ate my brain and demanded to be written. I hope you enjoy it!

New breeches-ripper romance!

October 14, 2021 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

I’m so excited that my gay fantasy series is coming Oct 21! I started writing the first book in April 2020 in lockdown. I needed to escape to a completely fictional world, and I created this Viking-ish hero and a virginal young prince from a summery land forced into marriage. Jem and Cador’s story is fantasy, but there’s no magic or dragons, etc.

I only intended their journey to be one book, but this tale took on a life of its own! After a year and a half of work, I’m thrilled to finally be sharing these books with you. I hope you love reading Jem and Cador’s opposites-attract romance as much as I loved writing it! You can pre-order now or borrow in KU very soon!

The 15th-anniversary edition of my very first book, Love Match, is here!

No, you don’t need to check your eyes. I said 15 years! My very first book was published by Loose Id in 2006. Borat was a box office hit, George Clooney and Angelina Jolie were deemed the sexiest people alive, and a new social media site called Facebook opened registration to the general public.

Aside from my old publisher, those things are still around, so it doesn’t actually seem so long ago. But Instagram and Twitter didn’t even exist, and Netflix was mailing actual DVDs to your house. The times, they have changed! It honestly blows my mind that I’ve been publishing for that long, and it’s wonderful to finally get my first book back on the shelves.

I’d initially planned on revising this story after the rights reverted to me. But I discovered when I sat down to re-read it that I like it just the way it is–dated technology and all! In regards to homophobia in sports and society, there really has been significant progress as well. It was so interesting to see that more has changed than I expected!
Luke and Jesse’s angsty coming-out journey to their HEA was vital in achieving my dream career as a romance author. I still hear from readers who love this book, and I hope you do too!

Hello! I’m delighted that Kick at the Darkness and Fight the Tide are now available in audio! Tristan James does an amazing job bringing Parker and Adam’s adventures to life.

The third book in the trilogy is coming, I swear. But writing a virus-based dystopian story right now is honestly too stressful. I need to come back to it when I can think about that universe in an enjoyable way. I know another delay is very disappointing, but I appreciate your patience and support so much. In the meantime, enjoy the audio of the first two books, and there’s an HFN (happy for now) ending on both books–no cliffhangers. 🙂

So excited to have a new feel-good holiday romance for you! It was a joy to write Jeremy and Max’s story and indulge in all my warm, fuzzy, snowy holiday feels. This year in particular, I need all the cozy, sexy romances I can get my grubby hands on, and I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I did writing it. <3

A nice boy gets naughty…

Redheaded freshman Jeremy “Cherry” Rourke is certainly living up to his childhood nickname, although still being inexperienced is the least of his concerns. After coming out, his parents barely talk to him. He hasn’t made any friends at university. Worst of all, he’s about to spend Christmas completely alone in an empty dorm.

Jeremy clearly needs a fairy godfather, so football captain Max Pimenta takes him under his wing to help him find his dating groove. But Jeremy’s wound way too tight. He’s too vulnerable. Max can’t trust some random guy with him. He needs to take care of Jeremy himself and introduce him to no-pressure exploration. It’s not about romance or feelings—he’s just doing the kid a favor.

Max is definitely not falling for this lonely, beautiful boy. No way.

And it’s not like he can leave Jeremy all alone for the holidays. He’ll bring him home to his family’s maple syrup farm—strictly as friends since his parents have rules. No more fooling around. No more eager, breathless fun. No more making Jeremy shiver and blush with suggestive whispers in his ear. No more sweeter-than-sugar kisses. All nice. No more naughty.

But Jeremy’s sleeping right across the hall, and Max wants him for himself. The twelve days of Christmas will last an eternity if they don’t break the rules.

Shhh. No one has to know…

Merry Cherry Christmas is a feel-good holiday MM romance from Keira Andrews featuring a nervous nerd and protective, jealous jock, forced proximity, first times, and of course a happy ending.

“Looking for a fun and sweet holiday romance with dual POV, some heat, a humorous caper, and a wonderful HEA ending? Look no further!” ~ Gay Book Reviews

Fa-la-la-la-la! My new holiday romance is now available to buy or borrow in KU! You’ve got fake boyfriends, bisexual exploration, found family, a single dad in desperate need of help, and all the warm holiday feels.

AMAZON.COM | AMAZON UNIVERSAL

Will fake boyfriends become the real deal this holiday?

It’s the most wonderful time of the year—except ex-Marine Logan is jobless and getting evicted. Worse, he’s a new single dad with a stepson who hates him. A kid needs stability—not to mention presents under the tree—and Logan’s desperate.

Then he meets lonely Seth and makes a deal.

Can Logan temporarily pretend to be live-in boyfriends to increase Seth’s chances at a promotion? If it provides a roof over their heads for the holidays, hell yeah. Logan considers himself straight—he doesn’t count occasional hookups with guys—but he can fake it. Besides, with his shy little smile, Seth is surprisingly sexy.

Make that damn sexy.

Shocked that Seth has only been with one man, Logan can’t resist sweetening their deal to teach him the joys of casual sex. No strings attached. No feelings. No kissing.

No falling for each other.

Easy, right?

The Christmas Deal is a steamy holiday gay romance from Keira Andrews featuring fake boyfriends, bisexual awakening, a clueless single dad with an angry preteen, and of course a happy ending.

The most dangerous current is between them.

Training to be a lifeguard at an Australian beach is tough work, but Cody Grant loves a challenge. He spends long days in the sun and surf rescuing swimmers from treacherous rip currents while trying not to lust after senior lifeguard Liam Fox—who is deeply, painfully closeted.

Liam was supposed to be a football legend. Now in his mid-thirties, it’s been over a decade since his dream shattered along with his knee. Fans still recognize him regularly, and he’s terrified his sexuality will be discovered and his conservative parents will reject him. He has strict rules to protect his secret and keeps everyone at arm’s length. Liam never acts on his need to surrender after being shamed for it years ago by the first and only man he trusted.

Out and proud Cody fascinates Liam—and tempts him to break all the rules.

Cody is practically half Liam’s size and age, but has the confidence and compassion to take charge and give Liam the release, affection, and acceptance he desperately craves. But how long can a secret affair satisfy their hearts? As if saving lives isn’t hard enough, Cody faces his greatest challenge yet convincing Liam to trust him and find the courage to live out loud.

Hunter Adams is hopelessly adrift after college. He’s still a virgin, can’t find a real job, and has no clue what to do with his life.

I’m delighted to share the cover for my new May-December romance, Honeymoon for One. The very talented Dar Albert made this cover, and I’m thrilled with it!

The wedding is off, but the love story is just beginning.

Betrayed the night before his wedding by the supposed boy of his dreams, Ethan Robinson escapes the devastating fallout by going on his honeymoon alone to the other side of the world. Hard of hearing and still struggling with the repercussions of being late-deafened, traveling by himself leaves him feeling painfully isolated with his raw, broken heart.

Clay Kelly never expected to be starting life over in his forties. He got hitched young, but now his wife has divorced him and remarried, his kids are grown, and he’s left his rural Outback town. In a new career driving a tour bus on Australia’s East Coast, Clay reckons he’s happy enough. He enjoys his cricket, a few beers, and a quiet life. If he’s a bit lonely, it’s not the end of the world.

Clay befriends Ethan, hoping he can cheer up the sad-eyed young man, and a crush on an unattainable straight guy is exactly the safe distraction Ethan needs. Yet as the days pass and their connection grows, long-repressed desires surface in Clay, and they are shocked to discover romance sparking. Clay is the sexy, rugged man of Ethan’s dreams, and as the clock counts down on their time together, neither wants this honeymoon to end.

Honeymoon for One is a gay romance by Keira Andrews featuring a May-December age difference, a slow burn of newfound friends to lovers, first-time m/m sex, and of course a happy ending.

Coming Thursday, September 27th!
KU-exclusive at Amazon for three months before wide release.

My dad was late-deafened as an adult, and I based Ethan’s experiences on his. This book is really close to my heart and I hope you’ll enjoy it! <3

They’re free of the White House, but can their forbidden romance survive in the real world?

With his father no longer president, twenty-two-year-old Rafa Castillo can finally be with ex-Secret Service agent Shane Kendrick. Shane’s given up his career for Rafa, a move his fellow agents question the sanity and morality of. Eager to get away from the questions and judgement, Rafa and Shane are building a new life together in Australia. Though Shane struggles with nightmares and his over-protective instincts while Rafa fights his own insecurity, they love each other more than ever.

Now they just have to get through a visit from the former president and first lady.

Rafa’s parents certainly don’t approve of his romance with forty-year-old Shane, and they’re determined to make him see reason. They don’t see how their son could possibly be happy settling down with an older man, and they question Shane’s motives. Shane and Rafa just want a normal life together—but when they must suddenly battle for survival, they fight to prove their fierce love can withstand any threat.

New figure skating romance

February 8, 2018 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

Whenever I publish a new book, I always feel a little something like this:

Just, you know. Far less graceful. 😀 But it’s always a great feeling to hit publish, and I’m delighted to be republishing two figure skating novellas into one new novel! This romance takes place at an invented Olympics in Annecy, France, since I didn’t want to tie it to any particular Games. (In this fictional universe, there are no Russian doping violations or team figure skating event.)

In the past few years, a few male figure skaters have come out, with Canada’s Eric Radford being the first to officially come out while still competing. Adam Rippon is another notable out figure skater. There has historically been a surprising amount of homophobia in figure skating, and for my characters Dev and Misha, they are still afraid of going public with their sexuality. Of course as rivals, they certainly never expect to fall in love with each other…

Can figure skating enemies find love off the ice?

After an explosive locker room confrontation with his Russian rival ends in the most intense sex of his life, American pairs skater Dev Avira is distracted to say the least. He’s worked for years to have a chance at Olympic gold, and he can’t let himself—or his partner—down. Playing cat and mouse with the steely and smoldering Mikhail Reznikov is the last thing he needs as he prepares for the biggest competition of his life, but they can’t keep their hands off each other as the Games approach.

Dev soon learns that beneath Mikhail’s arrogant and aloof exterior is Misha, a passionate man who warms Dev’s heart and scorches his bed. They’re both determined to win, but for Misha his freedom could be at stake if he and his partner take anything less than gold. Who will stand atop the podium? And can secret lovers from different worlds make a life together once the competition ends?

This gay sports romance from Keira Andrews features enemies to lovers, two alpha men, sequins, and of course a happy ending. Content previously published as novellas Cold War and Holding the Edge.

I’m delighted to re-release my historical adventure The Station. I made some minor tweaks after getting my rights back from Loose Id, and since this story will be new to most of you, I hope you enjoy it! The Australian Outback is a starkly beautiful place, and it was a real pleasure to imagine just how wild and new it would have been in the 1800s. Thanks to Dar Albert for the gorgeous new cover!

Two men exiled to an untamed land must capture love.

Ever since Cambridge-bound Colin Lancaster spied on stable master Patrick Callahan mastering another man, he’s longed for Patrick to do the same to him. When Patrick is caught with his pants down and threatened with death for his crime, Colin speaks up in his defense and confesses his own sinful nature. They’re soon banished to the faraway prison colony of Australia.

Patrick never asked for Colin’s help, and now he’s stuck with the pampered fool. While it’s true that being transported to Australia is a far cry from the luxury Colin is accustomed to, he’s determined to make the best of it and prove himself. Patrick learned long ago that love is a fairy tale, but he’s inexorably drawn to sweet, optimistic Colin despite himself.

From the miserable depths of a prison ship to the vast, untamed Australian outback, Colin and Patrick must rely on each other. Danger lurks everywhere, and when they unexpectedly get the chance to escape to a new life as cowboys, they’ll need each other more than ever.

This historical gay romance from Keira Andrews features an age difference, an eager virgin, hurt/comfort, and of course a happy ending.

It’s time to spin the dreidel and celebrate first love with my Hanukkah romance! This is a reworking of two older stories into one new and improved novella. I hope you enjoy it!

A geek. A virgin. One sexy holiday.

Orphaned Lucas figures spending the holidays with his obnoxious roommate’s family in New York City is better than staying alone on campus upstate. He ends up sharing a room again, this time with his roommate’s brother, Nate. Geeky photographer Nate isn’t at all what Lucas expects. In fact, he’s incredibly sexy—especially when he invites Lucas into his darkroom…

They hide their attraction during Hanukkah celebrations, but behind closed doors, Lucas and Nate can’t keep their hands (or mouths) off each other. Nate’s only looking for a bit of holiday fun, and amazing sex with a hot virgin definitely fits the bill. Yet as the candles burn, Nate and Lucas begin to realize eight nights will never be enough.

This gay holiday romance from Keira Andrews features secret trysts, new adult angst, spinning the dreidel, and of course a happy ending.

New Christmas Romance

December 1, 2017 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas! Get in the spirit with this fluffy, sexy story about two lonely men who reconnect in a most unexpected way.

“This is pure holiday fluff, but it never becomes sappy or saccharine. It is the right blend of sweet and oh-so sexy!”
~ Watch and Word Society

“This was just a fun, sexy read and put me in a holiday mood.”
~ The Smutbrarians

Former stepbrothers find Christmas romance under the tree.

After years alone, Daniel Diaz is finally ready to shake up his orderly, solitary life. He’s about to leave for a cozy Christmas getaway with his new man when he gets the call from the ER that his former stepbrother has been admitted with a concussion and a broken hand—and Cole put him down as his emergency contact. Why the hell would he do that? Daniel barely knows the guy. After all, their parents’ marriage lasted less than a year and it was a decade ago!

But Cole has no one else to look after him and strict doctor’s orders not to be left alone. So fine, Daniel will bring him along on vacation to make sure he doesn’t starve or fall into a coma. This is supposed to be Daniel’s chance to explore romance again after locking down his feelings for too long—except it turns out his could-be boyfriend is more interested in partying and being an obnoxious jerk. Daniel sends him packing, and now he’s stuck with a virtual stranger in an isolated mountain cabin.

Cole Smith crushed hard on cranky Daniel when they were teenagers. Alone with him in a romantic winter wonderland, those feelings roar back to life. Glimpsing the caring, vulnerable man under Daniel’s frosty shell, he yearns to get closer. Christmas is a time for surprises, and Daniel and Cole discover a scorching connection that just might melt their hearts.

This fluffy gay Christmas romance from Keira Andrews features former stepbrothers reconnecting as adults, sexy hot-tub shenanigans, cuddling by the fire, and of course a happy ending.

It’s release day for my new pirate romance! I hope you enjoy reading this breeches-ripper as much as I enjoyed writing it. I was aiming for a saucy, swashbuckling tale with heart, and I hope I succeeded. <3

Will a virgin captive surrender to this pirate’s sinful touch?

Nathaniel Bainbridge is used to hiding, whether it’s concealing his struggles with reading or his forbidden desire for men. Under the thumb of his controlling father, the governor of Primrose Isle, he’s sailing to the fledging colony, where he’ll surrender to a respectable marriage for his family’s financial gain. Then pirates strike and he’s kidnapped for ransom by the Sea Hawk, a legendary villain of the New World.

Bitter and jaded, Hawk harbors futile dreams of leaving the sea for a quiet life, but men like him don’t deserve peace. He has a score to settle with Nathaniel’s father—the very man whose treachery forced him into piracy—and he’s sure Nathaniel is just as contemptible.

Yet as days pass in close quarters, Nathaniel’s feisty spirit and alluring innocence beguile and bewitch. Although Hawk knows he must keep his distance, the desire to teach Nathaniel the pleasure men can share grows uncontrollable. It’s not as though Hawk would ever feel anything for him besides lust…

Nathaniel realizes the fearsome Sea Hawk’s reputation is largely invented, and he sees the lonely man beneath the myth, willingly surrendering to his captor body and soul. As a pirate’s prisoner, he is finally free to be his true self. The crew has been promised the ransom Nathaniel will bring, yet as danger mounts and the time nears to give him up, Hawk’s biggest battle could be with his own heart.

This May-December gay romance from Keira Andrews features classic tropes including: a tough alpha pirate too afraid to love, a plucky virgin captive half his age, enemies to lovers, first-time sexual discovery, and of course a happy ending.

Sexy spies

June 21, 2017 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

Delighted to announce that I have a new release! Well, it’s a re-release, but it feels new again with the gorgeous redone cover by Dar Albert. 😀 I’ve always been a fan of “on the run” romances, and it was great fun to write spies and action. Plus a math geek virgin as my version of a “Bond girl.”

This new version also features the 10,000-word sequel, The Argentine Seduction, for free! Hope you enjoy Kyle and Sebastian’s adventures.

His mission was seduction—not falling in love.

When young Sebastian Brambani meets a sexy and exciting older man, he’s easily seduced. But for spy Kyle Grant, it’s all business. Sebastian is simply a pawn in Kyle’s mission to acquire a dangerous chemical weapon from Sebastian’s criminal father. Kyle’s life is his work for a shadowy international agency protecting the world from evil, and he can’t worry about what will happen to Sebastian when the job is done.

Sebastian’s unwitting role in Kyle’s plan is the last straw for his ruthless father, who has been embarrassed by his gay son for the last time. But when Kyle discovers Sebastian could be the key to finding the deadly Chimera, he rescues him from a hired hitman and fights to keep him alive. Can a hardened spy and naïve college student take down a criminal kingpin, stay one step ahead of the killers on their trail—and fight the scorching attraction between them?

This gay romance from Keira Andrews features sexy spies, an age difference, a sheltered and passionate virgin, action and adventure, and of course a happy ending.

BONUS STORY INCLUDED: The Argentine Seduction, a sequel for Kyle and Sebastian featuring unexpected jealousy, protectiveness, and a dangerous mission in the simmering heat of Buenos Aires. (And of course a happy ending!)

May-December romance now available!

May 23, 2017 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

Hello! Delighted to announce that my new M/M romance is now available! This one features an age gap, which is one of my favourite romance tropes. To me, “May-December” is simply shorthand for a significant age difference. I’ve also seen the term “May-September,” which is probably more accurate in representing the actual age gaps, but I tend to use May-December as a catch-all. Whatever you want to call it, this book features a lonely (and hunky) older park ranger and a young single father who discovers his sexuality.

I’m excited to bring you Jason and Ben’s story, and I hope you enjoy it! It’s available exclusively at Amazon for three months to buy or borrow via Kindle Unlimited.

A desperate father. A lonely ranger. Unexpected love that can’t be denied.

Jason Kellerman’s life revolves around his eight-year-old daughter. Teenage curiosity with his best friend led to Maggie’s birth, her mother tragically dying soon after. Insistent on raising his daughter himself, he was disowned by his wealthy family and has worked tirelessly to support Maggie—even bringing her west on a dream vacation. Only twenty-five, Jason hasn’t had time to even think about romance. So the last thing he expects is to question his sexuality after meeting an undeniably attractive park ranger.

Ben Hettler’s stuck. He loves working in the wild under Montana’s big sky, but at forty-one, his love life is non-existent, his ex-boyfriend just married and adopted, and Ben’s own dream of fatherhood feels impossibly out of reach. He’s attracted to Jason, but what’s the point? Besides the age difference and skittish Jason’s lack of experience, they live thousands of miles apart. Ben wants more than a meaningless fling.

Then a hunted criminal takes Maggie hostage, throwing Jason and Ben together in a desperate and dangerous search through endless miles of mountain forest. If they rescue Maggie against all odds, can they build a new family together and find a place to call home?

Road to the Sun is a May-December gay romance from Keira Andrews featuring adventure, angst, coming out, sexual discovery, and of course a happy ending.

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

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.

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 » ?

Can two men from different worlds find their way together in an untamed land?

Voyageurs is a 15k novella previously pubbed by Torquere in 2010 as part of its Spice it Up line. The spice I chose was turmeric, and I really enjoyed finding a way to feature it in Simon and Christian’s tale. Fortunately for me, turmeric is known for its healing properties, so it worked perfectly given the likelihood of injury while canoeing hundreds of miles through the dangerous Canadian wilderness. 😀

The story’s been sitting on the shelf a few years, so I’m making it a freebie and getting it back out there. I hope you enjoy!

Two men battle the wilderness—and their desire.

It’s 1793, and Simon Cavendish needs to get to his station at Fort Charlotte, a fur-trading outpost in the untamed Canadian wild. The fort is only accessible by canoe, and there’s just one man daring enough to take him on the perilous, thousand-mile journey from Montreal this late in the summer.

Young Christian Smith, the son of an Ojibwe mother and absent English father, is desperate for money to strike out on his own, so he agrees to take Simon deep into the bush. As they travel endless lakes and rivers, the arduous expedition takes its toll.

Yet the attraction between Simon and Christian, two men from vastly different worlds, grows ever stronger. Locked in a battle against the wilderness and elements, how long can they fight their desire for each other?

Note: This gay historical romance from Keira Andrews features adventure in the wilderness, outdoor sex, and a happy ending. Standalone, free romance novella.

Love on the ice

December 11, 2016 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

My new book is now available to buy on Amazon or borrow via Kindle Unlimited!

As a lifelong figure skating fan, I love writing about the sport, and I hope you enjoy reading this story about young men trying to balance the pressure of training with a burgeoning relationship off the ice.

If he risks his heart, can he keep his head in the game?

To win gold, figure skater Alex Grady must train harder than the competition morning, noon, and night. He’s obsessed with mastering another quadruple jump, and due to the lack of filter between his mouth and brain, doesn’t have a lot of friends. As for a boyfriend, forget it. So what if he’s still a virgin at twenty? The Olympics are only every four years—everything else can wait. Relationships are messy and complicated anyway, and he has zero room in his life for romance.

So it’s ridiculous when Alex finds himself checking out his boring new training mate Matt Savelli. Calm, collected “Captain Cardboard” is a nice guy, but even if Alex had time to date, Matt’s so not his type. Yet beneath Matt’s wholesome surface, there’s a dirty, sexy man who awakens a desire Alex has never experienced and can’t deny…

Note: This gay romance from Keira Andrews features opposites attracting, new adult angst, sexual discovery, and of course a happy ending.

It’s release day for my new novella! Well, re-release day, as this story was first published briefly two years ago in a military men bundle. I’ve been holding onto it because I’d really like to write more about Kin and Jack, but I just haven’t had time, and I don’t want to keep them on the shelf anymore.

I’m still hoping to write a sequel down the road, but in the meantime, I hope you enjoy this tale of irritation turned to attraction turned to burgeoning love. <3

When two strangers are trapped in a blizzard, heat rises.

Haunted by what he lost in Afghanistan, Captain Jack Turner is at a crossroads. While the last place he wants to go is the Arctic, at least the routine mission gets him out from behind his new desk. But he starts off on the wrong foot with the Canadian Ranger guiding him across the forbidding and dangerous land, and Jack would rather be anywhere than sharing a tent with Sergeant Kin Carsen.

The Arctic is in Kin’s blood, and he can’t seem to leave the tundra behind. He wishes he could live openly as a gay man, but the North isn’t as accepting as the rest of Canada. Although he’s lonely, he loves his responsibility as a Ranger, patrolling the vast land he knows so well. But he’s on unfamiliar ground with Jack, and when they’re stranded alone by a blizzard, unexpected desire begins to burn. Soon they’re in a struggle to survive, and all these strangers have is each other.

Note: This gay romance features emotional repression, hurt/comfort, adventure on the tundra, and love where you least expect it.

Arctic Fire first appeared in the military bundle Unconditional Surrender in 2014. Novella length: 27,500 words

New sports romance

September 23, 2016 by Keira Andrews Leave a Comment

Hello there! I hope you all had an amazing summer (or winter, depending on which hemisphere you’re in). Mine was very busy, and I’m delighted to say that I have a new book available!

You might be wondering if you missed some earlier news about this story, but nope, I kept this one on the downlow this summer, mostly because I was working so hard on it that I let blogging and promo and whatnot go on the backburner. I thought it would be fun to do a surprise release, and right now I feel pretty much like:

But Nico and Jake are ready for you, and I can’t wait for you to meet them. While you’re reading, I’ll be over here doing a little of this:

Reading the Signs features light BDSM, a motherlode of emotional constipation, hurt/comfort, and lots of action on and off the field. Nico and Jake’s story was such a labor of love, and I hope you’ll enjoy it!

This hot-headed rookie needs discipline—on and off the field.

Pitcher Nico Agresta is desperate to live up to his family’s baseball legacy. Since he was a teenager crushing on his big brother’s teammate, he’s known he can’t act on his desires. His father’s made it clear there should be no queers on the field, but if Nico can win Rookie of the Year like his dad and brother did, maybe he can prove he’s worthy after all.

At 34, veteran catcher Jake Fitzgerald just wants to finish out his contract and retire. His team doesn’t have a prayer of making the playoffs, but who needs the stress? Jake lost his passion for the game—and life—after driving away the man he loved, and he swore he’d never risk his heart again.

Then he’s traded to a team that wants a vet behind the plate to tame their new star pitcher. Jake is shocked to find the gangly kid he once knew has grown into a gorgeous young man. But tightly wound Nico’s having trouble controlling his temper in his quest for perfection, and Jake needs to teach him patience and restraint on the mound.

When their push and pull explodes into the bedroom, Nico and Jake will both learn how much they’ll risk for love.

This gay sports romance features men who have been repressing their feelings far too long, light BDSM, an age difference, sweaty locker rooms, and a happy ending.

New release!

July 26, 2016 by Keira Andrews 5 Comments

My contemporary paranormal romance Fight the Tide is now available! In this sequel to Kick at the Darkness, Parker and Adam’s struggle to survive in a new world continues. I’m also planning a third book for Parker and Adam, and a fourth centered on a character you’ll meet in Fight the Tide. I hope you enjoy this dystopian universe as much as I do!

Adrift in a post-apocalyptic world, they only have each other. Is it enough?

A virus that turns the infected into zombie-like killers spreads through a burning world thrown into lawless chaos. Lovers Parker and Adam have escaped to the open sea when they hear a message over the airwaves from a place called Salvation Island—a supposed safe haven.

Orphaned as a child, werewolf Adam has always longed for a pack. He’s eager to investigate the island, but Parker doesn’t think for a nanosecond that the voice on the radio can be believed. He doesn’t trust anyone but Adam and is determined to keep it that way. They don’t need anyone else complicating their struggle to survive. Or do they?

Danger on the high seas can surface in a heartbeat, and if Parker and Adam aren’t careful, the current will drag them under.

This gay romance is a dystopian adventure featuring a werewolf, his boyfriend, and their struggle to find a place to call home.

This is not an inspirational Amish romance

August 26, 2014 by Keira Andrews 4 Comments

It seems that if you write a romance featuring Amish characters, it is automatically classified as “sweet” (i.e. no sex) and “inspirational” (i.e. Christian). During the pre-order period on Amazon, A Forbidden Rumspringa has simultaneously ranked on these bestseller lists:

Books > Gay & Lesbian > Literature & Fiction > Erotica
Books > Christian Books & Bibles > Literature & Fiction > Romance > Amish
Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Romance >Inspirational > Amish

Er, that’s quite a combination, Amazon! For the record, A Forbidden Rumsprina is not sweet or inspirational. There is explicit sex, and while religion plays a major role in Isaac and David’s lives, this isn’t a Christian romance. I suppose I might be reaching a whole new audience thanks to Amazon’s algorithms, but I hope it won’t end in backlash from unsuspecting readers. I did add a note in the blurb that there’s copious butt fucking and no authorial bible thumping (I might not have used those exact words), so we shall see. I’ve been fiddling with the keywords as well.

When two young Amish men find love, will they risk losing everything?

In a world where every detail of life—down to the width of a hat brim—is dictated by God and the all-powerful rules of the community, two men dare to imagine a different way. At 18, Isaac Byler knows little outside the strict Amish settlement of Zebulon, Minnesota, where there is no rumspringa for exploration beyond the boundaries of their insular world. Isaac knows he’ll have to officially join the church and find a wife before too long, but he yearns for something else—something he can’t name.

Dark tragedy has left carpenter David Lantz alone to support his mother and sisters, and he can’t put off joining the church any longer. But when he takes on Isaac as an apprentice, their attraction grows amid the sweat and sawdust. David shares his sinful secrets, and he and Isaac struggle to reconcile their shocking desires with their commitment to faith, family and community.

Now that they’ve found each other, are they willing to lose it all?
