How Harris Brothers Began
Amy Daws, a South Dakota-based author with a knack for spicy love stories, found inspiration in her love for British culture and football. Before becoming a bestselling romance novelist, Daws worked in TV advertising, but the birth of her daughter, Lorelei, sparked her writing passion. The Harris Brothers series spun off from her London Lovers books, where the dynamic Harris family first appeared. Their larger-than-life personalities demanded their own spotlight, and in 2016, Daws delivered with *Challenge*, the series’ first novel.
Daws’ infatuation with London’s charm and the camaraderie of sports fueled the series’ creation. She crafted each brother with distinct quirks, drawing readers into their world of banter, heartbreak, and redemption. Her goal? To blend the thrill of the game with the thrill of falling in love.
The Heart of Harris Brothers
The series kicks off with *Challenge* (2016), where Camden Harris, a cocky striker, meets his match in Indie Porter, his fiery doctor. Their forbidden patient-doctor romance sizzles with flirty banter and emotional depth. *Endurance* (2017) follows Tanner Harris, Camden’s twin and a notorious playboy, who fakes a relationship with Dr. Belle Ryan, only for their enemies-to-lovers spark to ignite real passion. *Keeper* (2017) dives into Booker Harris’ story, a reserved goalkeeper reconnecting with childhood friend Poppy in a heartwarming friends-to-lovers tale. Finally, *Surrender* and *Dominate* (2018) wrap up with Gareth Harris, the stoic defender, whose slow-burn romance with stylist Sloan Montgomery delivers intense family drama.
Set against London’s bustling backdrop, the series weaves themes of family loyalty, personal growth, and the messy beauty of love. Daws’ irreverent humor and steamy scenes keep things lively, while the Harris family’s struggles—grieving their mother, navigating their father’s emotional distance—add depth. Each book stands alone but builds a rich family saga, with football as the heartbeat driving the drama.
The series’ sports romance vibe appeals to readers who love authentic athletic settings without overwhelming sports jargon. Daws balances the brothers’ larger-than-life personas with relatable vulnerabilities, making their journeys universally compelling.
