The Full Synopsis
Is it reckless for a master’s student to blur the lines with her hot, older professor—a legendary storm chaser?
Without a doubt.
But when a tornado strikes during Finley and Professor West’s first chase together, something far more dangerous than the storm pulls them in. Boundaries shatter, and so do their reservations.
Now, as they tear across Oklahoma with his famous storm chasing team, he’s adamant: they crossed a line that should never have been crossed. He’s her professor, and she’s his student—nothing more.
But with every storm they face, they’re drawn deeper into a whirlwind that threatens to consume them both.
Can they remain professional?

Praise For Whirlwind
a storm chaser romance
“Did you watch the new Twisters and think "Damn, I love all this tension but I'm dying for some spice." THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! The people, the spice, and the amount of research Kayla did for this book is so, so good. And the fact that this is an age-gap PROFESSOR romance is chefs kiss.
As always, the plus-size representation is wonderful. The way Kayla always describes these beautiful bodies and beautiful characters is like a warm hug to the heart.”
Goodreads Reviewer
“Kayla’s writing is always a slam dunk for me. Her FMC is strong, intelligent and someone I’d want to be friends with. And her MMC is attentive, smart and, errr, enthusiastic about what he likes. Couple our main characters with our incredible side characters and the entire cast and plot of this book was so much fun! As always, Kayla’s spice is top notch and super swoony. I love her writing; I finished this book in less than a day! Such a fun read.”
