D.S. Kinahan

D.S. Kinahan showed promise as a writer at an early age, winning an SPCA-sponsored essay contest while in the seventh grade. Choosing a drastically disparate career path later in life, she spent more than thirty years working as a federal auditor at offices in New York, Massachusetts, and New Mexico.

Once retired and living in Nevada, Ms. Kinahan found herself spending way too much time and money at the casinos. She decided to take a much larger gamble and started writing again. Her debut book, "Love, Despair and Other Heartaches", was published in 2018 and followed in short order by four other novels ("Wandering Towards Normal", "My Zestful Years", "The Last Two Thousand Miles", and "Fervid Frenzy"). All five chronicle the life and loves of a female CPA with the wallop of some sizzling, steamy sex scenes that would make Sin City proud.

Her sixth novel, “The Former Mrs. Good Girl”, follows the scandalous experiences of a sheltered, reserved woman who ventures into the dark world of internet entertainment after divorcing her philandering husband. “Some Unexpected Vacation Baggage”, Ms. Kinahan’s seventh novel, is the nearly-clean story (suggestive developments but no graphic spicy scenes) of a strangers-to-lovers romance during a forced proximity trip through the Canadian Rockies. Her latest book, "Desire. Deceit. Dirty Books." features a sexually frustrated housewife who finds solace in smutty novels and lustful experimentation while dealing with her husband’s mysterious behavior.

The majority of D.S. Kinahan’s work can be best described as steamy (think “slutty”) literature for the ladies. Her hope is to dispel the myth that accountants are boring, prim and proper individuals. It’s a very select audience who enjoys this genre. Are you one of them?
