Summary

Fake romance shouldn’t feel this real....

Will: I've never been with a man.

Sure, I've thought about it. Wondered. Daydreamed. Imagined. But I wasn't ready to take the leap.

I have a reputation as a "ladies' man". No one has any idea how curious I am about men—not even my openly bi best friend. Make that former best friend. Michael ghosted me, and I have no idea why.

Michael: The man I love is straight.

It hurt like hell when I had to distance myself from Will. I’ve tried desperately to grow up and get over him, but my carefully constructed life just fell apart—and Will rushes to my rescue.

Now we’re pretending to be a couple to impress his boss at a holiday retreat. We’re holding hands and hugging.

We’re sharing a bed.

And Will just kissed me.

Is my best friend falling in love with me after all?

The Christmas Leap by Keira Andrews is a Christmas romance featuring friends to lovers, bi awakening, first times, and of course a happy ending. This stand-alone novel takes place in the same universe as The Christmas Deal.

The Christmas Leap

I love Keira Andrews’ books and The Christmas Leap got me feeling all christmassy and festive.
It’s a sweet, simple, friends to lovers Bi-awakening story that is superbly narrated by Greg Boudreaux.
A lovely way to while away your time wrapped up in blankets in front of a fireplace this wintertime.

Wonderful!

Aaaawwww, so much fun! Best friends to lovers, fake boyfriends, first time gay, bi-awakening, and a magical Christmas holiday in Australia. Keira Andrews puts her fun and festive twist on all of it. If you're ready to start celebrating the holiday season, The Christmas Leap is a great place to start.

Beautifully narrated by Greg Broudreaux, do The Christmas Leap in audio. You won't regret it!

an audiobook copy of The Christmas Leap was provided for the purpose of my honest review, all opinions are my own

lovely story,

I loved the story between Will & Michael though and the time they spent together in Australia was written beautifully but i thought the ending was rushed . The trip to Australia was little over a week then all of a sudden the epilogue is 2 years later. I really enjoyed how they realised their love for each other.
I have only listened to one other Greg Boudreaux's books but top marks for his sexy Scotland accent. Worth a credit, overall a lovely listen.

Awww!

This is a super sweet second chance romance and I loved it!
Michael and Will's story had me hooked right from the beginning and I was rooting for them all the way through.
Greg Boudreax has done a brilliant job of bringing these characters and their story to life.
I don't want to say too much about this,as I don't want to spoil this absolute delight for anyone.

My favorite time of year!

Okay, I admit I’m not a huge Christmas fan. But Keira Andrews and her wonderful Christmas books have me believing the magic might just be real. I loved The Christmas Deal and was thrilled to see Logan and Seth doing so well. And Connor’s all grown up and off at med school!

The Christmas Leap takes place with the same cast of characters and I admit I love this group. Will’s lucky to work in such a progressive company and, when he winds up rescuing his stranded best friend Michael – and everyone assumes they’re a couple – he just…kind of rolls with it. Then his boss wants Michael to come, as Will’s boyfriend, to Australia. Like, okay. Fake Boyfriend trope, here we come!

One small problem – Michael ghosted Will and Will has no idea why. Michael knows, of course. He’s been in love with Will forever and finally grew tired of watching Will date all these women. Michael’s bi, Will’s straight and…ne’er the twain shall meet? Except…Will’s been reevaluating his life recently, including his potential attraction to me. Michael’s reappearance in his life is either fortuitous or really inconvenient – could go either way.

Quick shout out to Liam and Cody, my buddies from Flash Rip. I love how Keira connects her stories.

Obviously, I was rooting for Will and Michael to figure it out. And since this is a Keira Andrews romance, I got my wish. I have to say I really loved all the secondary characters in this book. I felt immersed in the men’s lives because of the rich flavor of the characters around them.

Finally, I’ll give a nod to Greg Boudreaux. His Scottish accent for Will was perfect and the rest of the performance was just as good. A great holiday listen at the right exact moment.

A cute, easy listening Christmas romance

The Christmas Leap is a sweet follow-up to The Christmas Deal. It's a pleasure to spend a few hours capering about with idiots in love Will and Michael, and wonderful to catch up with some old friends. Spying Logan and Seth a few years down the line is a treat, and I am absolutely agog to find out what is going on with Connor.

The change in location to Australia broke the flow for me a little, however there were cameos from other Andrews characters that I'm sure delighted people who have read Flash Rip.

The Christmas Leap is lighter fare than The Christmas Deal and many of Andrews' other Christmas classics, and perfect if you're looking for easy listening romance with a few laugh out loud moments.

A Scottish Brogue and a rekindled friendship.


Great story about two friends who have drifted apart due to a relationship and one friend falling in love with the other, but unknown to them.

Two years later, fate intervenes, and an amazing story unravels.

Greg Boudreaux does a fantastic job narrating this book, especially with the Scottish accents. I speed this narration up to 1.10 on Audible, which is usual for me.
