Hey! My name is Kayla Morgan, and I’m the author of Paper Dream and Full Bloom! I’m so excited you’re here! I’ve been writing ever since I discovered fanfiction on the Nickelodeon Message Boards! (Anyone else remember that? Man, good times!) I’ve been fandom-obsessed ever since!
I spent the best two weeks of my life in Tokyo with my husband, and we can’t wait until we can visit again! We live in Ohio with our three adorable fur-babies.

Paper Dream
YA/NA Travel, Romance
For as long as Emily Johnson can remember, it has been her dream to become a mangaka, a Japanese manga illustrator. But when she finally moves to Tokyo to start her junior year of college at Tokyo International University, things don’t go exactly as planned. One crazy idea might be all it takes to help her break into the industry, but will it do more harm than good? To make matters worse, after a lifetime of feeling left out, Emily finally has a group of “real-life” friends who genuinely seem to like her—including Akio, an easy-going photography student she can’t help but find attractive. Her mind knows that she needs to keep her distance from Akio, in order to protect her secret. But her wayward heart seems to have other ideas. Will Emily finally find enough courage to be herself and find that “paper dreams” really do come true?
Full Bloom
YA/NA Contemporary, Romance
After her stressful childhood, loving and loyal Seraphina Evans is perfectly content living a quiet life with her mother and sisters. She loves co-running the family business, a fairy tale themed café in Chicago, and spending her free time cultivating the rooftop garden on top of her rundown apartment complex.
Clever and cunning, James Campbell has been Seraphina’s best friend since middle school. He has never failed to be there for her over the years, even listening to her ramblings about which flowers or gardening techniques she was obsessed with each week. If it wasn’t for his inflated ego, Seraphina would have fallen for him years ago.
But when an unexpected circumstance unearths a past that Seraphina wishes she could just forget, the two are pushed closer than ever. Questions she was never willing to deal with before start filling her mind: Is James really more than the façade he has always paraded around? Are we only the sum of the traumas we’ve suffered in life? Or can we grow from our pasts enough to truly be in full bloom?
