Synopsis

Off Script

Terryn used to be Commander Stinson, hero of a cult sci-fi show. Now he signs autographs and answers to "Star Man" at conventions, expecting the usual: selfies, nostalgia, flirty fans.

He doesn't expect Daryl.

Razor-sharp, gorgeous, and completely unimpressed by his charm, Blake Barlow's assistant isn't playing the game everyone else plays with him. One chase through the convention floor changes that.

One weekend. One connection neither of them planned. And a clock that won't stop ticking, she's based in LA, he's leaving for a shoot in Mexico.

A steamy, banter-filled romance about chemistry that crashes through every defense, and the love story you find when the cameras are off and the script is gone.

Perfect for readers who love:

• Bossy heroines with secret softness
• Flustered heroes who fall first, and hard
• Con-floor meet-cutes
• Tension that turns into heat, and heat that turns into something worth keeping

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."
