Kimberly Keyes

Magnetic characters that move you, stories you can’t put down, romance that sizzles, and that happily-ever-after romance readers crave.

MEET KIMBERLY

Hi I’m Kimberly Keyes, steamy romance author. Thanks for stopping by to learn more about me and what I write. Currently I’m obsessed with writing fast-paced, sizzling historical romances that my readers swear make them lose sleep because they can’t stop turning the pages to see what happens next. Grumpy/sunshine heroes and heroines, marriages-of-convenience, fake relationships, fake engagements, and fling-fails are my jam.

Most days you’ll find me writing and dreaming up ways to perplex the characters living inside my head. I also make time to travel, surround myself with family, and read voraciously myself.

I call Florida home because that’s where my family lives, including my rescue husky, St Nicklaus, who’s assigned himself the task of being my personal trainer, demanding I take walks (with him) toil in my garden often (with him) and play fetch (where he tries to get me to do the fetching).

I love hearing from my readers and am beyond grateful for every review posted and personal note sent.

THE EARL’S RELUCTANT HEIRESS
The Earl of Claybourne knew the moment he laid eyes on Lady Eloise she was the woman for him—and it had nothing to do with her impressive dowry.

Unfortunately, upon learning that the impressive title he’d inherited came with an impoverished estate and empty coffers, his newlywed wife concludes she’s been had by a fortune hunter and banishes him from her sight.

After receiving her formal demand for an annulment, his only hope is to call her bluff. He’ll agree to let her go—but first she must spend two weeks with him under the same roof…

Will he prove that he married the woman, not the money before pride and silence cost them both their happily-ever-after?

One of the best books in this genre, electrifying chemistry that works SO good got me licking it off my fingers…The most common elements of HR were done in such a fun, quirky and beautiful way in accordance with the societal expectations of that era…ex: loved the speculation game iykyk..🫡 The writing and build up and everything was impeccable….My only complaint is the name of this book because both the main characters were extremely beautiful….INSIDE (again iykyk ☺️)

What an utter genius Ms. Keyes is in crafting this lovely story. I loved the couple and the secondary characters, like the servants who each had their own unique personalities. The people I didn’t like were the people I wasn’t meant to. Diane, the would-be friend of Eloise, our heroine. Her jealousy and subtle digs, relentlessly and ruthlessly trying to tear the lovers apart. And Eloise’s father, who not only didn’t actively support her, he wasn’t honest with her and didn’t seem capable of doing what was best for Eloise. There were some hilarious scenes, almost slapstick comedy, that had me laughing out loud. Even now, thinking about it, it puts a smile on my face.
All in all, a delightful story by a very talented, blossoming author. Fun read.

Perfect for me. Absolutely perfect. This story hit every one of my favorite romance buttons—she’s a secret romance writer, he’s the dream she’s been writing about for years, and then he returns with amnesia… but of course that won’t stop them. If anything, it makes their story even more delicious.

Kimberly Keyes knows exactly what she’s doing in A Lyon’s Tangled Tale, and it shows in how confidently she leans into the most beloved tropes of historical romance. Amnesia, marriage of convenience, a wallflower heroine secretly in love with her brother’s best friend. Yes. Please.

First of all, let me say that I loved every single line of this book!!! The plot, the characters, the dialogues, everything! Georgina in particular was so very sweet, but she also had a will of steel and I liked this mix very much.

I encourage everyone to give this book a go! The characters are all fleshed-out and have their own voices, the chemistry with Sterling and Annabelle is palpable, and it’s a spicy story with a heartwarming ending!
