Forever Home
Madi Cormier is not delicate. She is loud, feral, furious, and unfinished.
She breaks things when she's scared. She runs when love asks too much. And when she comes back, she does it with fire in her veins and nowhere left to hide.
Cal has always been the one place she lands-the man who knows her before the damage, before the years that hollowed her out and taught her how to disappear. He fixes engines. He keeps horses. He believes in staying. And this time, he's done letting Madi tear through his life without choosing him.
What follows isn't gentle.
It's a collision between two people who love each other badly, loudly, and honestly. A reckoning with addiction, shame, memory, and the impossible weight of wanting to be seen as more than the worst thing you've ever done.
Madi isn't asking to be saved. She's asking if she's still allowed to belong.
A raw, darkly funny, deeply intimate contemporary romance about second chances, feral women, steady men, and the broken things we choose to keep.
Autorentext
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."
