Thank you for visiting my website!

I’ve been a storyteller most of my life. Growing up in Los Angeles and being involved in the entertainment industry, I started out writing screenplays. But the medium frustrated me, so I tried to shake things up with a creative exercise. To my tremendous surprise, a 650-page love story poured out of me. It may have been awful and ridiculously long (though, secretly, I still love it!), but it was the most fun I’d had writing in ages. And so I’d found my true voice as a writer. Since then, I’ve written dozens of contemporary romances, from YA to New Adult to single title. What does age matter when we’re talking about finding the loves of our lives?!

I’ve got exciting news! Brodie’s book--the fourth book in The Bad Boyfriend series—THE RELUCTANT BOYFRIEND—is here!

Princess Gone Wild!

When Princess Rosalina discovers her fiancé cheating on her, she’s done being dutiful. Jumping on a plane, she lands five thousand miles away in a world of hot cowboys, jean skirts, and tequila. Grabbing her chance to fly under the radar, she plans on acting out every single fantasy she’s denied herself while trying to meet the expectations of her family and country.

Brodie Bowie doesn’t know what happened. One minute he’s wreaking havoc and tearing up the slopes with his brothers, and the next he’s an outsider. All of them are in serious relationships. He just can't figure out why they'd put a ring on it when there’s so much fun to be had as a single man.

Brodie’s not the settling down type, but then he’s never met anyone like the woman who jumps in front of his bulldozer, refusing to let him dig up his meadow. The feisty chemist and perfumer is everything he never knew he wanted.

Except she only wants a summer fling before she goes back to her real life…as a princess. 

He doesn’t fit in her world, and there’s no way she can live in his. 

But a love like theirs doesn't play by the rules.

Gray Bowie broke the bro code: he fell in love with his best friend’s girlfriend.

For years, he hid his feelings…until one terrible night, it all came to a head.

Since her life blew up in high school, Knox Holliday has spent her time honing her skills as a couture wedding dress designer. But, just weeks before her debut, a freak accident wipes out her collection. The culprit: her ex’s former best friend, Gray Bowie. 

Gray does everything he can to get her career back on track. As they work together, they find forgiveness and start to stitch together something that looks a lot like love. But, at the very moment they realize they have a chance for something real, her ex comes back to town, bringing opportunities Gray can’t provide. 

This time, Gray’s not going to step aside, so he can only hope Knox will hold onto his heart.

She’s his dream, but will he be hers?

I’m loving The Bad Boyfriend series. It’s about four brawny mountain-men brothers who grew up wild in the Tetons with a super competitive dad and an eccentric uncle (in other words: no maternal hand!). These elite athletes have ZERO understanding of romantic relationships. But, trust me, they will all meet their matches, and when they do these guys will fall HARD. I am loving these stories!! You can meet all the guys and get a glimpse into their world on my Pinterest page.

USA Today says The World’s Worst Boyfriend is such a fun and sexy second-chance romance that I didn’t want it to end. Erika Kelly delivers a highly entertaining and sigh-worthy romance that shouldn’t be missed.

Reading in Pajamas says,  I’m obsessed with the Bowie brothers! Obsessed and addicted!

Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews says, I loved every crazy, twisted, funny, emotional minute of this book!

TAKE ME HOME TONIGHT "is emotional and tremendously sexy, with a large cast of characters that readers will adore -- Kelly's rendering of Calix's grieving parents is particularly well-done -- but it is Mimi's strength that will linger long after the finish." - Sarah MacLean, Washington Post

Booklist calls I WANT YOU TO WANT ME "...steamy, hot, and totally engaging. The characters are realistic, and Kelly paints a vivid picture of what happens behind the scenes in the world of rock."

RT gives I WANT YOU TO WANT ME 4.5 HOT stars!

You Really Got Me has gotten some great reviews!
