Where Magic Meets Passion
🔥 Spicy Fantasy Romance • 18+ Content
Step into worlds where magic isn't the only thing that ignites. Under the pen name Lexi Lopez, I explore the passionate, sultry side of fantasy romance—where fierce heroines, brooding anti-heroes, and dangerous magical beings collide in tales of love, lust, and legend.
These stories contain mature themes, explicit content, and are intended for adult readers (18+) who enjoy their fantasy with a generous dose of heat.
There are several ways to make a dead man talk and Nyia Marre knows them all.
When her husband’s body is discovered, Nyia’s first thought isn’t grief—it’s the dragon eye, their family’s most valuable treasure…and her only chance at financial freedom.
Nyia is a Burner, a human with the rare ability to extract magic from mythic creatures, a gift coveted and controlled by her king. Now, with ruthless debt collectors closing in, she’ll risk everything to reclaim the stolen dragon’s eye. Her only lead points to Rafael Darkthorne, the king’s royal procurer of mythic parts—and the last man she wants to trust.
Darkthorne swears he didn’t kill her husband. In fact, he offers to help her find the dragon’s eye…for a price. Teaming up with him means playing a dangerous game of bargains and betrayal but it is a price Nyia is all too willing to pay for her freedom. Darkthorne might be her only ally—and her greatest temptation, but Nyia isn’t worried. She knows that magic burns. Some people just know how to hold the match.

As A. M. Deese, I write fantasy for all ages—stories my younger readers can enjoy. But I've always wanted to explore the steamier, more mature side of the genre without crossing those boundaries.
Lexi Lopez was born from that desire: a space where I can write unapologetically spicy fantasy romance for adult readers who want their magic with a side of passion, heat, and maybe a few blush-worthy scenes.
Think of it as the after-dark version of my storytelling—same magical worlds, higher temperatures.
Lexi Lopez books are intended for mature readers (18+) and contain:
If you prefer closed-door romance or are sensitive to explicit content, my A. M. Deese books may be a better fit for you.
