The
big question from everyone is, "Why do I write bikers?"
I usually smile, because I've always known bikers.
Readers always seem surprised to find out that my life was cool even before
Sons of Anarchy showed up as a weekly television show.
I learned to ride my first motorcycle at four years
of age. My dad and all my brothers rode, and being the only girl didn't stop me
from wanting to ride too. So, at four years old, I decided to twist the
throttle and leave my dad (who was walking beside me while I sat on the bike)
behind as I rode his motorcycle down the street by myself. Then I met my
husband, and bikes have always been a part of our lives. It's normal to have a
motorcycle in the basement or in our living room, instead of the garage. It doesn't
hit me that it might not be normal, until I have company over.
As for writing about bikers, I wrote my first biker
romance series back in 2008. I was a new author, bending to the influence of
what was popular, and wrote what everyone expected in a biker series. It's
adorable, romantic, and very mainstream. The series has seen two publishers and
still available today.
But, I had reached a point in my career where I had
gained a lot of readers, published over 20 books, and decided that I needed to
write what I love, what is a part of my everyday life. That's how the Bantorus
MC series came about. I let my fictional bikers be the men I know in real life,
who talk the way bikers talk, act the
way bikers act, love the woman in their life the way I've seen and experienced,
and though they might be too alpha, too strong, too stubborn, and a little
bad…club and family is about real life. It's about my life.
In Debra
Kayn's newest biker romance novel, Torque Kendler, Sergeant at Arms of Bantorus
MC fights to keep his past hidden, while protecting the one woman who's capable
of bringing chaos down on Pitnam out of desperation and love.
Torque Kendler, Sergeant at Arms of the Bantorus
Motorcycle club, tenaciously safeguards his marked past. Shot twice by Los Li
and nearly killed last year, he wants to hold on to the familiar and retain his
freedom. However, there are too many changes happening in Pitnam for him to
trust anyone…especially the new chick managing the bar that's giving him
attitude and consuming his thoughts.
Sent by Los Li to work at a biker bar called Cactus
Cove, Brandy Haas expects to get the information she came for and save her dad
from the Mexican mafia. Worried about her dad, struggling at her job, and
scared of failing again, she adds to her problems by lusting after the most
dangerous biker in the MC. One biker, one hothead, one wonderful gift Torque
unknowingly gives her could destroy everything she's trying to protect.

Selling Romance Author, Debra Kayn, lives with her family at the foot of the
Bitterroot Mountains in beautiful Idaho. She enjoys riding motorcycles, playing
tennis, fishing, and creating chaos for the men in the garage.
Her
love of family ties and laughter makes her a natural to write heartwarming
contemporary stories to the delight of her readers. Oh, let's cut to the chase.
She loves to write about REAL MEN and the WOMEN who
love them.
When
Debra was nineteen years old, a man kissed her without introducing himself.
When they finally came up for air, the first words out of his mouth were…will
you have my babies? Considering Debra's weakness for a sexy, badass man, who is
strong enough to survive her attitude, she said yes. A quick wedding at the
House of Amour and four babies later, she's living her own unbelievable romance
book.
