Book 2 of 3: Gay Amish Romance

See all formats and editions

They've escaped Amish life—but can they really be free?

A world away from their strict upbringing, David and Isaac no longer have to hide their love. Yet it’s not so easy navigating confusing “English” society and reconciling their sexuality and faith.

While Isaac thrives at school and makes new friends, guilt haunts David for leaving his mother and sisters behind in Zebulon. The hustle and bustle of the city overwhelms him as he struggles to get his carpentry business off the ground.

He and Isaac finally sleep side by side each night, but will David’s mounting fear and anxiety drive them miles apart?

A Clean Break by Keira Andrews is the second book in a series of forbidden Amish love. This gay romance features explicit steamy exploration, found family, and soulmates fighting for their happy ending.

Great journey of life and love !!

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2015

Book2) Isaac and David are in San Francisco with Isaac's brother and wife. They are free and learning all new things, so much to know now that they can explore. This is a beautiful journey of two souls that find each other, and whether or not it's acceptable, they know in their hearts this is real love. This M/M story is heartwarming, realistic, engrossing, and well written. The characters are deep with an interesting tale to tell. Along with hot sexiness this is a worthwhile read. We learn a lot about Amish life and differences between areas of the Amish and what is allowed. The author tells us how their world works, and we understand it, even if we don't agree with it. The naiveté of David and Isaac, is sweet, and their desires to know more of the world is so natural. Isaac is allowed to expand his world by going to school to get his GED. David has his woodworking, and a shop to use, with business growing. Deeper feelings grow, love develops even stronger, struggles in the world, much conflict and angst, and each feels jealous at times of the other's friends and daily business. The guys struggle also with the role of God in their new life. I want to hug them both so badly !! Aaron and Jen are wonderful and welcoming. There is a cliffhanger and I'll be starting the next book immediately. I look forward to their happiness evolving into real freedom.
There is one more books to this trilogy, and I'll be exploring all of their whole journey.
Highly recommend !! ENJOY !!!

This book was so well written. You feel every hurt, which is a lot in this book. I’m not sure how people overcome such a raising so on to the next book.

I LOVE this 3-book series so much that I’ve read them several times over.
Can we please have more books about Isaac and David?!
All 3 books are amazing, including the 2nd book which has angst.
Even if you don’t like series, you’ll want to read all 3 books.
The 3 books may be stand-alone books, but I was so eager to read more about Isaac and David that I wasn’t in the frame of mind to consider and judge them that way.

I took my cousin and his wife to Ohio's Amish Country for their first time in the fall and got to wondering about Gay Amish stories. I decided to look and found this. I'm not into reading romances, but the Amish aspect intrigued me enough to buy the first book and give it a try. I'm so glad I did. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't what I got. The characters were well-developed and the story was told at a good pace. I finished the series tonight after starting the first book 3 days ago. I did not want to put it down! The emotions were real and honest. The tension was felt off the page! The story also didn't get cliché with the lovers experimenting with drugs or other sexual partners as most LGBTQ media seems to do. It was refreshing! I also learned a few things about the Amish which I was hoping to do. The couple things I didn't care for were not enough to subtract a star from the rating. I wanted less sex. I know it's a romance novel, but sometimes I just wanted them to cuddle and go to sleep. At times that became repetitive. And that's really my harshest criticism. I do remember my early 20s though. It wasn't too long ago... And that first date was superbly emotional! I saved a passage from the second book I'm going to share on social media (and obviously give credit to the author).

I want to see more from this world! I want to know more about Anna and Ephraim, and see Isaac and David reuniting with June. I'd like to see their future with marriage and perhaps fatherhood or at least as uncles.

Thank you for this read Keira Andrews!

Nice story to contiue the journey....

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2016

The first book was the best of the 3 and the 3rd book come's in 2nd in the series. I just expected this book to be different than it was. I understand the confusion with a new way of life, but after a few times the burden David felt and expressed several and several times wore thin. I get some of the problems & doubts David encountered, I even understand a few of the troubles he created looking for a way out. I was not crazy with how the writer took Isaac to new and wonderful heights and left David kind of whiny. It is not a bad book but I just expected it to be different. I do like the fact that the 3 books carry events and individuals through out. I'd recommend reading in order.

pleasant enough sequel

Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2015

I liked this book, but not near as much as I should have.
The first book in this series, Forbidden Rumspringa is a really good book, and it needs to be read before this one is read or you really will have no point of reference to what they're talking about.
That said, this book is pretty much all focused on David. And, as much as he was daring and knowledgeable in the first book, he's feeling left behind and lost at sea in this one. He worries about his family and questions if he did the right thing, and if Isaac loves him. Over and over and over again.
The story ends in a cliffhanger so you'll feel compelled to get book 3. Which I did. But truthfully, this one, book 2, is nothing but filler between the other two books. I hope part 3 is worth it.

Un-put-down-able!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 28, 2022

Verified Purchase

OMG! This series is un-put-down-able and hankies are needed. Thank goodness it is a Bank Holiday weekend here in the UK and I did not have to go to work. I can’t believe this series is from 2014/2015 (here we are late summer 2022) and I am only just discovering it. I only know bits and bobs about Amish life but never in a million years would I have thought it could be so intransigent and I have no reason to believe that the author was making anything up. The frontispiece tells us that she did her research among ex Amish and I have no reason to disbelieve anything in this book. The world building was outstanding and the depiction of the characters was just – wow! I really connected with both Isaac and David immediately and the supporting characters were also so well written, whether ‘goodies’ or perceived ‘baddies’. This is a series that will stay with me for a very long time and if I could give it more than five stars then I most certainly would. I also encourage the reader to download the free book ‘A Very English Christmas’ to catch-up with our heroes and their family, both blood and found, and to see them celebrate their very first Christmas out in the world.

She writes very accurately about the pressures people experience when they leave a cult. Her perception is uncanny, especially for a straight woman. An amazing story.

ABSOLUTELY FIVE STARS!

Reviewed in Canada on February 5, 2015

LOVED IT!

Keira's writing is perfect for M/M Romance novels and her words bring life to the adorable David and Isaac. Reading about their transition from Amish life to "English" life was so much fun.. And she doesn't disappoint with adding drama and twists...I knew they would return to Zebulon at some point but I was not expecting the reason why. I can't wait to read the third book of the trilogy - anytime soon?!? *wink wink nudge nudge*

My only critique is the sex - the sex scenes are a little repetitive (except for their first 69!) - but I read for the romance and relationship between David and Isaac. Repeating myself, Kiera does an excellent job at this! Absolutely 5 stars!

Warum REDEN sie nicht miteinander?

Reviewed in Germany on May 18, 2016

Verified Purchase

Um diese Geschichte zu verstehen, sollte man unbedingt den Vorgängerteil "A Forbidden Rumspringa" gelesen haben, denn hier wird direkt an die Geschehnisse des ersten Buches angeknüpft, diesmal aber nicht aus Isaacs, sondern aus Davids Sicht.

David und Isaac haben es geschafft - nach endlosen, qualvollen Monaten, in denen sie ihre Gefühle füreinander entdeckt, geheim gehalten und schließlich sogar verleugnet haben, sind sie aus der strengen Amish-Siedlung, in der sie aufgewachsen sind, geflohen. Isaacs Bruder, Aaron, der schon neun Jahre vorher Reißaus nahm, nimmt die beiden bei sich in San Fransisco auf, wo sie sich ein Leben in der normalen Welt aufbauen wollen. Auch ihre Beziehung zueinander muss nicht länger ein Geheimnis bleiben, denn Aaron und seine Frau Jen sind sehr liberal, was das angeht. Isaac beschließt, seinen Schulabschluss nachzuholen und David will weiterhin als Schreiner arbeiten. Es könnte so einfach sein, ist es aber nicht. David wird von schrecklichen Schuldgefühlen geplagt, weil er seine Familie zurückgelassen hat, wo er als einziger Mann den Lebensunterhalt bestreiten musste und hat zudem große Anpassungsschwierigkeiten an das Leben in der Großstadt. Unter den viele Fremden leidet er unter Panikattacken, die er versucht, mit übermäßigen Alkoholkonsum in den Griff zu bekommen. Zudem hat er das Gefühl, dass Isaac sich immer weiter von ihm entfernt, nicht nur, weil sie nicht länger zusammen in der Schreinerei arbeiten, sondern weil es Isaac nicht schwer fällt, neue Leute kennen zu lernen. David befürchtet, bald nicht mehr gebraucht zu haben und obwohl er es mehrfach versucht, bekommt er einfach nicht die Zähne auseinander, um mit Isaac darüber zu reden. Viel besser ist Isaac aber auch nicht. Ganz offensichtlich ist er eifersüchtig auf Jens besten Freund, von dem er, nicht ganz zu unrecht, befürchtet, er wolle David an die Wäsche. Anstatt jedoch darüber zu reden, baut sich eine Mauer des Schweigens zwischen ihnen auf, bis die Situation eskaliert.

Alles hätte so schön sein können. Nach dem Ende des ersten Bandes, der spanend, ergreifend und einfach nur wundervoll war, habe ich mich so für David und Isaac gefreut. Endlich hatten sie es geschafft, sich von der Amish-Kommune loszusagen und einen Weg gefunden, wirklich zusammen sein zu können. Und was passiert? Sie reden einfach nicht miteinander! Natürlich ist es nicht einfach, sein ganzes bisheriges Leben hinter sich zu lassen und in eine völlig neue Welt aufuzubrechen. Im Gegensatz zu Aaron taten sie dies jedoch nicht alleine und anstatt zusammenzuhalten, zerstören sie beinahe ihre Beziehung. Die ersten zwanzig Prozent des Buches besteht aus Sexszenen, in den nächsten siebzig Prozent lamentiert David darüber, wie schlecht es ihm geht, wie schuldig er sich fühlt und wie sehr er sich vor der großen weiten Welt fürchtet und in den letzten zehn Prozent eskaliert die ganze Situation. Der ganze Mittelteil ging mir irgendwann auf die Nerven. Isaac wollte doch für ihn da sein, warum bricht David nicht sein Schweigen? So einen sturen, stolzen, leidgeplagten Charakter habe ich lange nicht mehr erlebt. Den nächsten (und letzten) Teil werde ich trotzdem lesen, denn ebenjene letzten zehn Prozent haben dafür gesorgt, dass das Buch doch noch spannend wurde. Nachdem ich so sehr mit den Charakteren gelitten habe möchte ich auch wissen, wie es ausgeht.

【M/M】家を飛び出したアーミッシュの子二人のサンフランシスコでの生活

Reviewed in Japan on January 25, 2016

Verified Purchase

アーミッシュの二人、デイビッドとアイザックが、アーミッシュの世界を捨て（ゲイは認められないから）、
すでに先にふつうの人として生活を営んでいる兄のところに逃げ込み、
そこで世俗に慣れ、生活を作っていこうとするお話。

１巻はアイザック視点だったけど、２巻はデイビッド視点。
デイビッドはアイザックより年上で、木工職人としてアイザックを教えていたこともあって、
自分がしっかりしなければ、という気持ちが強く、弱みを見せられないと思って、
そんな自分の思いにがんじがらめになり、学校へ行きだしたアイザックと気持ちがすれちがう。

彼らは、サンフランシスコに住むアイザックの兄夫婦の家に同居させてもらっている。
水道も電気もひかない農場から、サンフランシスコって、かなりの転換なので
大変なことは想像に難くない。
つまり想像通りの展開で、デイビッドがイジイジしてて、それだけじゃお話にならないからか、
へんな当て馬が出てくる。
そういうのがなければもっとおもしろかったのかもしれない。
（なんの頼りもなく飛び出したアイザックのお兄さんのお話のほうがきっと
おもしろいものになりそうだった）

☆３つくらいかなと思ったけど、
３巻を読もうと思うくらいには二人に興味を惹かれたので一応☆４つ。
（けど３巻でなかなか先に進まない…）
