She mostly wrote PG-13 family comedies that studios would pay her lots of money for and then never make into movies. In 2017 she decided to move to the Pacific Northwest and write about all the fun stuff that she wasn\u2019t allowed to write about in those PG-13 scripts. Now she\u2019s breathing cleaner air and writing dirtier words. It\u2019s an adjustment she\u2019s happily getting used to.<\/p>\n<p>Rest assured that her funny sexy sweet romances have no cheating or cliffhangers, and always have HEAs!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kayleyloring\/\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0 | \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/authorkayleyloring\/\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0 | \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/kayleyville\/\">FB Reader Group<\/a>\u00a0 |\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kayleyloring.com\/\">Website<\/a>\u00a0 | \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/KL_Newsletter\">Newsletter<\/a>\u00a0 | \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/landing.mailerlite.com\/webforms\/landing\/e3b7l2\">Audio Newsletter<\/a>\u00a0 | \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bookbub.com\/profile\/kayley-loring\">BookBub<\/a>\u00a0 |\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kayleyloring?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TikTok<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Resistance Training by Kayley Loring is coming 29 September, and we&#8217;re so excited to help reveal the cover! &nbsp; Pre-order now on Amazon &nbsp; &nbsp; Blurb Vivian only has one big regret in life\u2013and a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":79713,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","yasr_overall_rating":0,"yasr_post_is_review":"","yasr_auto_insert_disabled":"","yasr_review_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[290],"tags":[300,1140],"class_list":["post-79712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-book-news","tag-cover-reveal","tag-kayley-loring"],"yasr_visitor_votes":{"stars_attributes":{"read_only":false,"span_bottom":false},"number_of_votes":0,"sum_votes":0},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Resistance-Training.jpg?fit=200%2C300&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7gaNL-kJG","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=79712"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79712\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/79713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=79712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=79712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=79712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
