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! COME AWAY WITH ME, a holiday novella set in the Calamity Falls Small Town Romance world, is coming out on September 17!

Can the handsome loner win the heart of the single mom? He's about to find out on their Vegas road trip.

Single mom Skylar James is absolutely not interested in the broody, inked artist who works in her brother’s motorcycle repair shop. She’s focused on her four-year-old son and her thriving business as an image consultant. But when he asks her to work her magic on his widowed mom, how can she say no? She’s in—even if it means a road trip with the man who can’t take a hint.

When Jinx Costello rolled into Calamity, Wyoming, he met the woman who owned him heart and soul. Unfortunately, he hasn’t been able to convince her about their destiny. She won’t even go on a date with him. But when he sees her in action with a client, he puts his own needs aside to ask for help with his mom.

Away from her family and business, Skylar finally lets down her guard and realizes why she’s been fighting Jinx so hard: she’s wildly attracted to him. Which makes it hard to uphold her vow not to date while her son’s little.

Jinx can’t believe the woman of his dreams is finally giving him a chance. But is she just letting loose on a Vegas road trip?

Because this is it for him. She’s it.

And now he just has to prove it to her

I’m loving the Calamity Falls Small Town Romance series. This Wild West mountain town in Wyoming is home to sexy, rebellious, Alpha men and the strong, passionate women who bring them to their knees. 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 Keep On Loving You 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!
