About the Author

Hi, romance lover

I’m Kayla Martyn

An indie romance author and unapologetic fan of all things steamy, suspenseful, and emotionally charged. I write high-heat contemporary romance where passion and danger are always on a collision course, and where love really is worth risking everything for.

If you crave stories that feel like sliding into the backseat of a getaway car—heart racing, adrenaline spiking, and absolutely no going back—you’ll feel right at home in my books.

What I Love to Write

I’m obsessed with taking familiar tropes and dropping them into high-stakes, explosive worlds. In my books, you’ll often find:

  • Age Gap – older, battle-scarred heroes who should know better…and heroines who make it impossible to walk away
  • Enemies-to-Lovers – snark, power struggles, and kisses that feel like surrender
  • Forbidden Romance – best friend’s daughter, mafia princess, partner’s daughter, and other lines that should never be crossed
  • Grumpy Protectors & Ex-Military Heroes – Navy SEALs, operatives, bodyguards, and billionaires who treat love like a mission they refuse to fail
  • Mafia & Romantic Suspense – dons, cartels, criminal empires, and the women who refuse to be anyone’s pawn

Every story is its own cocktail of heat, danger, and heart, but they all share the same promise: intense chemistry, emotional depth, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

With love,
Kayla Martyn
