edit data

Kayla Maya is the author of YA fantasy. Song of Storms is her debut novel.

Her first love has always been fantasy, but bold heroines, forbidden romances, and magic are her favorites. She takes pride in her writing and her characters, especially if she sometimes imagines being the main character.

Kayla lives in the bustling city of Fayetteville, Arkansas, and shares her life with her husband and her many assortment of furry creatures, which includes, but does not limit to, cats, dogs, and maybe a ferret named Caesar! When not writing she can be found reading other authors, if not taking long strolls along the Lake Fayetteville side of town.

Kayla Maya and 34 other people liked Brittany Jones's review of Demons In My Head: Exposing The Exiled (Demons of Port Black Book 2): "This was clearly rushed even after having 2+ years from the last book.
