Will co-stars take their romance offscreen this Christmas?

Actor Ryan Drake is pining. He may get to kiss gorgeous Cary Holloway on the set of their hit sci-fi TV show, but he knows it’ll never happen in real life. Charming Cary—the son of Hollywood royalty—has a starlet girlfriend, and despite their sizzling onscreen chemistry, he and Ryan are just friends. Right?

But Christmas is a time for unexpected gifts, and Cary accepts Ryan’s last-minute invite to leave the palm trees behind and spend the holiday with the Drakes at their cabin in the Great White North.

Amid the snow and mistletoe, Ryan struggles to keep his longing under wraps. Little does he know, Cary’s coming to terms with his bisexuality and deep attraction to his co-star. Will these actors have the courage to make their romance real—or will it be only in their dreams?

Where the Lovelight Gleams is a gay Christmas romance from Keira Andrews featuring friends to lovers, bisexual awakening, snuggling by the fire, and of course a happy ending.

"Keira Andrews writes the best unresolved sexual tension." ~ Smut Book Club

"One satisfying, light holiday read." ~ Multitasking Mommas

"If this Christmas story doesn't give you cheer I don't know what will. It manages to throw in so many perfect Christmas moments and yet not come off as cheesy or predictable." ~ Live Your Life, Buy the Book

About the Author

After writing for years yet never really finding the right inspiration, Keira discovered her voice in gay romance, which has become a passion. She writes contemporary, historical, fantasy and paranormal fiction, and -- although she loves delicious angst along the way -- Keira firmly believes in happy endings. For as Oscar Wilde once said: "The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what fiction means."

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet young love

Ryan, an out and proud gay young actor is filming a TV show with Cary a supposed straight young actor. Ryan really likes Cary but is afraid to act on it. During a Christmas break in filming, Ryan invites Cary to visit with him and his family at their Canadian cabin since Cary has no plans. It is awkward and a false start gets in the way but the young men get their HEA. It is a delightful story with Ryan's loving family and magic of the season. Good reading that will make you say "aww".

4.0 out of 5 stars Really good m/m Christmas romance :D
Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2016

4-4.5 stars

This was a really good Christmas story. I liked both Cary and Ryan and enjoyed their story.

Ryan is an actor on a science-fiction TV show. He grew up in Canada and is still close with his family. Ryan came out when he was in high school and his parents have always supported him.

Cary is also an actor on a science-fiction TV show. He's also the son and grandson of Hollywood legendary actors that have always been known as "men's men". Cary took after his family in the acting profession but his father has made it clear that he doesn't approve of the roles Cary is choosing and thinks he should chose more "manly" roles.

Ryan didn't know anyone when he moved to L.A. to become an actor and the first person he truly felt was a friend was Cary. They met when their show had it's pilot and became good friends. Now that the show is finishing its second season, the writers have decided to make Cary and Ryan's characters a couple. Ryan has been fighting more intimate feelings towards Cary for a while so them having to kiss for the show kind of ends up messing with his head a bit and he has to keep reminding himself that he and Cary are just friends. When Ryan found out that Cary and his girlfriend were supposed to be going to a spa for a "cleanse" over Christmas, Ryan invites Cary to his family's house for Christmas but Cary refuses.

Surprise, surprise...things happen between Cary and his girlfriend and Cary takes off for Canada to see Ryan and take him up on his invite. Ryan is very happy to have Cary visit for Christmas but also is a bit messed up over it because he's having trouble keeping his hands and feelings to himself. Ryan's family welcomes Cary in and makes his feel at home, giving Cary the traditional Christmas he never had growing up. Things between Ryan and Cary do get a bit messed up when lines get crossed and then the new situation has to get figured out and all so there's a bit of angst but it doesn't last long. The story does end very nicely with a sweet Christmas holiday with Ryan's family and then an epilogue that take place a year later, showing Cary and Ryan well into their HEA together.

This was a really enjoyable story. I liked both Ryan and Cary and was happy to see them work things out and get together. The story was rather short but it didn't feel stilted at all. I would have liked to see a bit more of their story but it didn't really feel like anything was missing and I wasn't disappointed. Overall, this was a really enjoyable Christmas romance and I'd recommend it. :D

3.0 out of 5 stars Novella, not novel
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2019

More novella than novel, and we're only given Ryan's POV, but in its favor, the plot is good, and the story is enjoyable. It's just too short and quickly resolved, for my taste. I think Ms. Andrews could re-work this; expand it to give us more of Cary's backstory and the why's and wherefore's of his growing attraction to Ryan, and not harm the sweetness one bit. I hate to give only three stars to any book by Ms. Andrews but the length, fast resolution and limited POV are flaws (for me).

4.0 out of 5 stars Chemistry onscreen and off :)
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2016

Ryan and Cary are both 25, and are co stars in a TV sci-fi series that's growing steadily in popularity. Their characters on the show are starting a romantic relationship, which for Ryan, makes things both better and worse.

Ryan and Cary have been friends for a couple of years and for all that time Ryan has had romantic feelings for Cary, but Cary has a girlfriend. Cary also has both his parents in the business, and his grandfather. He knows how they would react if he ever came out as gay.

As time approaches for their Christmas break, Cary tells Ryan he's never really had a typical family Christmas. Ryan impulsively invites Cary to spend the holidays with him and his family at their cabin in Canada. Cary ends up taking Ryan up on his offer

Also staying at the cabin are Ryan's parents, his sister and brother-in-law and their two children. They were good supporting characters that added to the story.

I stayed engaged in their story and may have given it 5 stars if it had gone past their time at the cabin to let us see what happens on their show and in their lives after they became a couple. There was a little glimpse in the epilogue (that was a year later) but it didn't give much detail.

Good book, but I would like to have had a few more chapters that showed their relationship once they got back home.

Sometimes I get a book and don't take note of the author's name. I just realized that I've read several books from this author and I've enjoyed all of them. She's now added to my short list of authors I'll keep coming back to.

I always enjoy reading Christmas Romance novels to get in the Festive mood, though gay I usually end up reading "straight" romance novels by a well known New York Times Best selling author, but this year, I stumbled upon Keira Andrews and I must say I have been Very Pleased with her Gay Christmas Romance Novels; although they are a little more sexually explicit than the "Straight" counterpart, I did not find it overly detracting the storyline was solid and the characters likable; I particularly like this novel for the dramatic tension towards the end of the novel and the only Christmas Wish I would have for this book would be - "I wish it was a little longer"; it was a very quick read and I was disappointed when it was over. I'm a softy when it comes to Romance Novels and Happy Endings and Keira Andrews has become a very large blip on my radar! Well done!

1.0 out of 5 stars Wrong book inside the cover!
Reviewed in Canada on November 30, 2021

Maybe my kindle app malfunctioned? But the cover/book description is about 2 guys named Cary/Ryan. The whole book inside is Merry Cherry Christmas, from table of contents through epilogue. I read Merry Cherry Christmas already and it’s cute, but I thought this was and expected a different book inside the cover of Where the Lovelight Gleams. Not sure how to flag this problem! I really enjoy Kiera Andrews books (haven’t read her paranormal ones though, not my thing) and was looking forward to trying this one.

So...this Story is cute. All in all I don't regret that I read it, but I've read better stories from the author. I really like Cary and Ryan but it's kind of strange how the whole story ends up in rushed things. In the beginning it's all good an sweet and mood setting. You get to know the Chars and learn about their situation and all, and how things are going and such, but the last part (35%) is like, this and that and this and that without having the time to wrap your head around what happened, because it's all in a rush with too many different things.
So the story loses some appeal what's sad, because all the characters are at least likeable. So, as I said, I don't regret to have read it, but only 3 Stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Again There are Better but It's Good
Reviewed in Australia on February 14, 2020

This is exactly what it claims to be. An unrequited love that isn't quite unrequited coming to a head at Christmas. The leading men are not always the best, but that is part of the charm of the trope I guess. The missed non-verbal cues, the lack of verbal communication. The whole story is told from a single perspective which kinda works, kinda doesn't. The HEA is guaranteed so Keira isn't hiding that and Cary's inner monologue his inner turmoil would be more telling, more griping perhaps reading than Ryan's. It's not a huge issue but Ryan is a bit off-putting, especially when the other side, the other perspective is revealed. The relationship follows a slightly off the beaten path. As actors, acting as a couple on a show there is a certain amount of intimacy and trust between them before the story starts. I can see flashes of Arctic Fire (which I have an almost irrational love for) in Where the Lovelight Gleans with slightly less self-torture. I think it might be the icy setting, the brevity of the story and the self-repression involved.
