Q: Finally!
You returned to the To Protect and Service universe.
A: I
had to. There were unresolved issues regarding the kidnapped women of Earth.
Q:
What took so long?
A:
Kalquor got in the way and took over my life with its civil war. Then Risnar
came along—too many universes, too little time.
Q:
How does this start out?
A: Back
in the first book, Ravenous Virtue,
Raven had left Earth behind for the alternate universe. She’d also left her
best friend Kimi Furio, who was faced with a lot of blood, bullets, and no body
or answers. Kimi was sure Raven had died. In a few short years of tremendous
loss, this was the one that broke her. She’s spending all her time drinking
when a Paatiin named Laaruu shows up looking for her.
Q: Laaruu
was also in Ravenous Virtue, as a
minor character.
A: He’s
the head of Prince Saazeer’s security force. He was so impressed with Raven, he
decided he wanted an Earthling “darling” (as the Paatiin refer to them) of his
own. So he came to Earth to find Kimi.
Q: And?
A: And
he finds a tough, mesmerizing, but self-destructive version of what she’d been.
He’s intrigued, but Kimi’s a mess, and he decides to clean her up.
Q: I
take it Kimi doesn’t want to be cleaned up?
A:
Not at all. She wants to finish obliterating herself. Only the news that Raven
is still alive and fighting an intergalactic bad guy pulls her from the brink.
She also wants to save the Earth women he abducted from an unthinkable fate, so
she signs a contract with Laaruu, making her his “darling”.
Q: What
else should readers know about this book?
A: This is dark erotica. It includes dubious
consent, sexual servitude and BDSM. If that’s not your thing, stay away.
Q:
What’s up next? What are you working on now?
A: Warriors of Risnar: Worlds Away will be coming out in May. Then, I’m
heading back to Kalquor. I’ll soon begin work on First Mataras: Maryam, which will focus on one of the women
abducted to Kalquor around the same timeframe as Alien Embrace and Alien Rule.
Due to ongoing health issues, it might take me a little while to get Maryam out, so everyone needs to be
patient.
Q:
Nothing serious, I hope?
A:
I’ve had some increasing problems with old injuries from a car accident I was
involved in about thirty years ago. It’s slowing me down quite a bit. Plus I’m
dealing with a minor heart issue—nothing to worry about; I’m working hard to
keep it a minor concern.
Note: Righteous Fury is dark erotica. Contains dubious consent, BDSM, and Master/slave dynamic.
