Laura Kaye writes contemporary and romantic suspense, including series built around military veterans, tattoos, motorcycles and interconnected groups of friends. Hard As It Gets begins the Hard Ink series with Nick Rixey, a former special-forces soldier who becomes involved with Becca Merritt after she asks for help finding her missing brother. The search draws Nick back towards former teammates and a conspiracy connected with their past service. Kaye's Raven Riders books shift into motorcycle-club romance, while other series mix suspense, erotic romance and close-knit found-family dynamics. Her books are explicit, fast-moving and relationship-led, with external danger often forcing characters to trust one another quickly. Hard As It Gets is the key entry for readers of military romantic suspense and interconnected series, while Raven Riders suits those who prefer motorcycle-club settings and a stronger community focus.
