Contemporary romance

Love rarely follows the rules.

Especially when the wrong person starts to feel like home.

The books

Complicated people. Inappropriate chemistry. Terrible timing.

Standalone contemporary romances set in the same messy, interconnected world. Start anywhere — although reading in publication order gives you a few extra winks along the way.

The Intern

Gia has rules. Lucas appears to have mistaken them for suggestions.

He is too blunt, too intense and completely wrong for her. The problem is that wrong is starting to feel exactly right.

About Kym

Romance for anyone who has ever made an excellent plan and then met a person.

“I write about the moment right before someone crosses a line they swore they wouldn't.”

Kym Laurel writes contemporary romance from Brisbane, Australia, usually while pretending she is going to bed at a sensible hour. She loves complicated people, inappropriate chemistry, sharp humour and the moment a careful plan goes spectacularly wrong.

Her stories are about people who know better — and fall anyway. Expect emotional mess, slow-burning tension and characters who discover that doing the right thing is rarely as simple as it sounds.
