Tex

They trained her to forget. He's the one thing she couldn't.
Tex has bled for his club, buried his past, and shut the door on the boy he used to be. But when Lux walks into the Bear Den-a stranger with familiar eyes and a scent that claws at his soul-everything he's built starts to burn. She's not just another audition. She's the girl who vanished without a trace. The one he carved into trees. His mate. And whether she remembers or not, Tex knows one thing: she's his. But Lux didn't come back for him-she came back broken, branded, and built to destroy everything he loves.
Lux was made to be obedient. Conditioned to follow orders, forget the past, and leave no trace. But something about Vermont rips open the seams of her programming. The Bear Den isn't just another assignment-it's familiar. And the man watching her from the shadows? He isn't a stranger. He's heat, hunger, and heartbreak wrapped in denim and scars. Her mind screams to run. But her body remembers. And when he touches her, everything fractures. Because Lux doesn't know who she was before they turned her into a weapon. But her soul does. And it wants him.
Can you love someone you don't remember? Can fate resurrect what the world tried to erase? When the past claws its way out of the dark, will loyalty win out-or will the bond burn everything in its path? She was sent to watch. He was built to protect. But when the truth hits, and the leash slips, nothing is safe-not even their hearts.
Lords of Khaos: Brave New World is part of the greater Lords of Khaos Universe and directly follows the Lords of Khaos: Ironwood series. Each book contains a full-length fated mates romance, but for the richest experience, it's best read in order. Expect blood, heat, feral devotion, and characters who will burn the world to protect what's theirs.

If you're looking for steamy paranormal romance, you've come to the right place. I write everything from gods and monsters to fairies and shifters.
When I'm not immersed in my own fantasy world, I'm a mom to two little boys, and wife to a fantastic man. I live outside of St. Louis in southern Illinois, and spend my days working with seniors at a retirement community.
Writing is I'm my bones. I've been toiling with stories since I was old enough to hold a book, despite struggling with dyslexia. I started writing fanfiction in highschool, and quickly began to grow my own characters and stories. Mind is constantly filled with new friends (and steamy book boyfriends) that I can't wait to share.
