About Ryder

Ryder Tombs is a bold and unapologetic voice in gay and bisexual romance, crafting stories that pulse with passion, desire, and the raw intensity of human connection. In his early 30s, Ryder brings a fresh, modern edge to the genre, blending steamy encounters with rich storytelling and complex characters.  

A lifelong lover of words and a firm believer that romantic fiction should be just as compelling as it is tantalizing, Ryder weaves narratives that celebrate queer love in all its forms—whether it’s a slow-burn romance, a no-strings-attached thrill, or something deliciously taboo. His work is known for its deep emotional undercurrents, sharp wit, and an unapologetic embrace of pleasure, centering the desires and experiences of gay and bisexual men.  

When he’s not writing, Ryder enjoys exploring underground nightlife, collecting vintage paperbacks with scandalous covers, and indulging in far too much espresso. He’s always chasing the next story, the next adventure, and the next moment that will leave readers breathless.
