Author bio
Kat T. Masen is a contemporary romance author from Sydney, Australia, known for angsty love stories full of forbidden crushes, complicated triangles, and second chances that hurt a little before they heal. She is a USA TODAY bestselling writer whose breakout Dark Love books turned the best friend’s older brother trope into a sprawling family saga.
She grew up in a time before smartphones and constant scrolling, which left plenty of space for getting lost in stories. That early habit of reading for hours at a time shows up in the way she writes now, with long-running series that let readers stay with the same characters as they grow up, mess up, and try again.
As an adult she found an online community of romance readers and writers, friendships that nudged her from reviewing books to drafting her own. Her debut story about Lex Edwards and Charlotte, first published as Into the Darkness and later rewritten as Chasing Love, marked the beginning of the Dark Love series and the wider Edwards universe that many of her books now share.
Dark Love follows Charlie, Lex, and their friends through first love, betrayal, marriage, grief, and the kind of tangled choices that come with money and power. Set largely in and around Sydney, the books lean into the emotional fallout of an all-consuming relationship, asking what it really costs to choose one person over everyone else. Over time the series expanded with companion stories like Lex and seasonal novellas that return to the Edwards family at different stages of their lives.
Masen did not stop with one generation. The Forbidden Love and Secret Love series shift the focus to Lex and Charlotte’s daughters and their friends, layering age gaps, family expectations, and office power plays onto the original world. Elsewhere, the #Co-Worker duet and Roomie Wars books offer workplace and roommates-to-lovers chaos, while still serving up the same mix of banter, heat, and emotional fallout.
In 2025 she launched Cinnamon Springs, a small-town billionaire series that begins with How to Break My Heart, where a donut-slinging café owner is forced to plan a wedding with the billionaire ex who once broke her heart. The series brings Masen’s brand of angst and humor into a cozier setting, trading city skylines for tree-lined streets and nosy neighbors.
Away from the keyboard, Masen runs Books Ever After, a special-edition romance bookstore she founded in Bowral, New South Wales. The shop grew out of earlier book boxes and author events and now doubles as a hub for signings, custom covers, and readers who like their romance shelves a little bit extra. She also created the Books by the Bridge author events, bringing writers and readers together in person.
Her home life is busy and loud in the best way. She lives with her husband, four sons, and a very demanding pug who tends to appear in her social media. When she is not drafting or editing, she is often on BookTok or TikTok talking about her favorite tropes, especially 80s music, 90s-style romance, and the jealous, ride-or-die heroes who keep showing up in her books.
Across all of her series, readers can expect sharp dialogue, big feelings, and characters who are allowed to be messy before they earn their happy ending. Masen likes to sit with the fallout of bad decisions as much as the swoony declarations, which is why so many of her stories stretch across multiple books, letting love feel complicated, painful, and ultimately worth the work.
