DAMNED AND DEFIANT by Kathy Kulig
Book
3 in the Demons in Exile Series.
Mortal
women surrender to Dante’s seductions. He is a Drone, an immortal who feeds off
their lifeforce energy—the chi that keeps his kind alive. When his dimension is
on the edge of destruction, Dante must seek the help of one special
woman.
Haley Moore is
a Sha Warrior—a mortal with excess lifeforce. She’s always been drawn to Dante.
When they meet again he thinks luck is on his side—his quota of chi energy would
be obtained after one scorching scene with this mortal. The problem is that he
is overwhelmingly attracted to her and once with this woman won’t be
enough.
Haley tries to
draw out the man buried deep within the demon. Their fierce, undeniable passion
unravels his plans and threatens her life. But Dante is destined to leave Earth
forever. He must choose whether to return to Prygos or give up his immortality
and share his future with Haley.
When not immersed in her next story, Kathy enjoys traveling, relaxing by the beach with a book, mountain biking, movies and dinners out. She lives with her husband in a 100-year-old Victorian house in Pennsylvania. For more information visit her website.

ReplyDeleteHi DeNita, Thank you for having me on Author Island to celebrate. You always do a fabulous Cyber Launch. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Mary, Thanks. And good question. Names do take some time. I have a great book by Sherrilyn Kenyon that helps with names. Sometimes I use that or make them up.
Hi Jean, I don't pick out the covers. I fill out an art form for the art dept. and they do the cover up. I can make suggestions. Kendra Egert designed this one.
Congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteDo you know how many books will be in a series before you begin writing?

Thanks Quilt L., No I don't write historical, paranormal and contemporary. Wild Jade has a little Mayan history to it but that's as close to an historical as I get. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ellen, Thank you for reading the excerpt. Glad you enjoyed it.
Hi Delilah, Good question. I guess I heard about psychic vampires and decided my demons would need to have that ability to survive. And thanks for checking out my website. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Suzie, Awesome! Thanks for starting the series. I got my inspiration for this series while traveling in Sedona, AZ. I even talked to a Navajo. The area is so beautiful, it's hard not to be inspired.
Thanks Jane, I hope you enjoy the series. I'm glad you stopped by.
ReplyDeleteHi Susan. I just started a new series. It's an erotic contemporary called TropiX. The first book is called Spring Break. I'm working on book two now. It takes place in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.
Hi Alison, Thanks for stopping by and helping me celebrate the new release. Good luck!
Hi Marybelle, Usually I do know. The Demons in Exile was planned for three. But I could branch out in another direction if I like. TropiX is a planned and outlined 4-book series. I also have Dragon Witch and I'm considering writing a sequel and possibly a three-book series for that one. That was loosely planned, not formally outlined. :)
Congrats on the release! Have you always liked paranormal stories?

ReplyDeleteHow would you describe Dante and Haley only using three words(each)?

ReplyDeleteElaing, Hi, tough one. Dante: torn, powerful, intense. Haley: quirky, gutsy, passionate.
Bn, thx, my fav mountain bike spot is on Assateague Island, Maryland. Lots of wildlife including wild ponies and deer. Right near the ocean.
Hi Jennifer, thanks so much! And thx for visiting.
Congrats on the new release. This book sounds fantastic. Can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any favorite authors that you read?

Hi Joanne, Thanks. I read quite a variety of books from erotic romance to thriller, suspense, sci fi and fantasy and paranormal. So it's hard to say if I have favorites. :)
