Lex Martin is the USA Today bestselling author of the Wild at Heart, Varsity Dads, Texas Nights, and Dearest series. She writes contemporary romance novels, the steamy kind she hopes readers love but her parents avoid.

​

She’s been hooked on writing since elementary school when she’d pen short stories and make her dad read them, before quizzing him with multiple-choice tests. (He was a good sport.)

​

In high school, when she wasn’t playing basketball, she wrote emo poetry and worked on the school newspaper. She went on to become a nationally-certified high school English teacher and freelance journalist, but she decided she’d rather write romance novels than tests or city hall articles.

​

Lex loves coffee, rom-coms, planners, college football, and hoarding pens. She married her almost-college sweetheart (they met right after graduation) and is still obsessed with him, especially when he writes her songs.

​

She currently resides in her hometown of San Antonio with her husband, twin daughters, a bunny, and their dog Teddy. Drop her a line at lex (at) lexmartinwrites.com. She loves hearing from readers.
