Butterfly Bayou is Lexi Blake’s contemporary romance series set in a small Louisiana bayou town. The series launched in 2020 with Butterfly Bayou, which follows a nurse who leaves her big-city life to start over in the tight-knit bayou community. Each subsequent book follows a different couple connected to the town.
The six-book series has a different feel from Blake’s Masters and Mercenaries franchise. Where those books center on espionage and BDSM themes, the Butterfly Bayou books are warmer and more focused on community, family bonds, and the charm of small-town Southern life. The series includes Bayou Baby, Bayou Dreaming, Bayou Beauty, Bayou Sweetheart, and Bayou Beloved.
