    Tagline: She’s an elemental witch who plays by her own rules.
    He’s the guardian who will tame her inner beast.
    Blurb:
    Technical genius and demi-goddess–aka Divinity–Khloe Bradenton
    relies on no one for help, and she definitely doesn’t need comfort from anyone other
    than her twin. After her parents died by the demons’ hands over two years ago, she
    has graciously stepped up to her place in the war between demons and witches. When
    a creature far more dangerous than the ones responsible for killing her parents
    claims he is her guardian, she is torn between her desires for the dark predator
    and the painful loss she has endured at the hands of her enemies.
    One of the last death demons still in existence, Jagger has pledged
    his life to the Goddess Hecate. Charged with the guardianship over the Divinities,
    he is never to approach them, but to aid them from a distance. When the firestorm,
    Khloe, sacrifices herself to save her twin and best friend and becomes the prey,
    he has no choice but to reveal himself to her. He is taken by surprise when the
    need to claim her as his own emerges. A desire he has never felt before could be
    more dangerous than the demons out to destroy them.
    What are your main characters’ names, ages, and occupations?
    Khloe Bradenton, age 32, Graphic and web designer by day, demon
    hunting Divinity by night
    Jagger, age? Old, death demon and guardian of the Divinities
    How did you get your start in the industry?
    It just happened. I’ve always loved creative writing, but it
    wasn’t until I started reading paranormal romance about four years ago that I began
    to believe I could write one myself. I did some research, joined RWA, started writing
    and joined a critique group.
    What do you enjoy most about life?
    Being a wife to my real life romance hero. And each sunrise and
    sunset.
    Do you have a muse? Describe this person, please.
    Yes. My muse isn’t a physical person. She’s the creative half
    of me. She’s a little nuts and suffers from ADD. LOL
    What does “balance” mean to you as a writer?
    Plotting, chapter outlines that don’t have too much details,
    and coffee!
    I have a degree in business accounting and current work full
    time in the accounting department of a software company. So I the things I listed
    above is how I balance my analytical half with my creative half.
    Do things your family or friends do ever end up in a book?
    About 90% of my characters are completely made up. There are
    some personality traits that I might take from two or more people and blend them
    into one character. Sometimes I’ll add in a phrase I heard my kids say.
    What kind of books do you read when taking a break from your
    own writing?
    Paranormal romance is my top pick. Put I also enjoy historical
    romance and a few urban fantasies.
    What was the proudest moment of your life so far?
    The birth of my children will always be my proudest. My first
    book release takes second place.
    What good book have you read recently?
    Right now I’m catching up on Nalini Singh’s psy-changeling series.
    Love this series!
    What do you like to do when you’re bored?
    I really don’t have time to get bored. But I either read, write,
    or hang with my hubby.

    Fill in the Blanks

    I love pizza with pepperoni.
    I’m always ready for a good book.
    When I’m alone, I write.
    You’d never be able to tell, but I’m shy.
    If I had a halo it would be held
    up by horns.
    If I could teleport I’d increase my writing time by
    2 hours a day.
    I can never speak in public because it scares the hell
    out me.
