Synopsis

She didn't come to the romance convention to fix anyone.

She came because she genuinely loves these people.

Every werewolf. Every vampire with a color theory about bats. Every Sandra from Tucson who goes by Moonwhisper DarkRose and means it completely. Every woman who has been the vehicle in someone else's story and hasn't yet figured out she's allowed to want more.

Lira Loretti shows up in yellow. In gold. In heels that have no business existing on a person that compact. She asks questions at hockey games during the third period. She gets her garter strap fixed in front of four hundred people and calls it a presentation.

She's not here to tell you your darkness is wrong.

She's here to tell you warmth and fierce are not actually opposites.

And that you are so much prettier than you know.

A keynote address. A color exercise. A man named Carl who does not panic about buckles. And one very small, very warm argument for wanting something that doesn't end in more dark.

About this title

About the Author

Kira Lorne writes the kind of stories people read in private and remember in public.

Before turning to fiction, she worked behind the camera as a producer in the adult film industry-where she learned how desire behaves when no one is pretending, how intimacy fractures or deepens under pressure, and how performance differs from truth.

Those years gave her a rare, unfiltered education in sexuality, vulnerability, and power-one she now channels into stories that are sensual, emotional, and disarmingly honest.

Today, Kira teaches literature at the university level, guiding students through narrative, voice, longing, and the quiet architecture of human connection. By night, she writes emotionally charged romance-stories where desire functions as language, not performance.

Kira lives in Branson, Missouri, by way of California, where the landscape changed but her fascination with longing, reinvention, and quiet rebellion did not. She shares her home with a deeply unimpressed cat who believes all writing intentionally takes time away from belly rubs and scratches behind his ears.

Her work is known for its softness, its sharpness, and its unapologetic heat.
Not explicit for the sake of shock, but intimate because her characters earn it.

"I try to write desire the way it actually happens-messy, hopeful, and real."
