Analia is alone, and for all she knows, she's the last of her kind. By chance Analia escapes her captors, and hides herself on the merchant ship Marada, planning to get off at the very next stop.
Unfortunately for her, there is no next stop. The crew is planning a delivery that could take months, and according to a stipulation in the newly signed contract, no one is allowed on or off the ship until the package is delivered.
When Analia is found by the captain of the Marada, she must adapt to her new role on the ship, and
try to control her newly awakened desire for the brutal and devastatingly erotic demon.
Q) How long did it take you to write?
I love all my characters, so choosing one feels kind of
sacrilege. However, aside from being snarky, Sonya is a hard worker, takes
pride in her accomplishments—which can sometimes come across as arrogant—and
she gets along with anyone . . . Well almost anyone, don’t mention pirates
around her. And besides all that, she knows how to have a good time.
The whole writing process was great, though. I’d be writing,
intending to head in one direction, but then the characters would lead me an
entirely different direction, a better direction. They crave adventure.
So, so many to choose from. Goodness where to start? Well, I
love Larissa Ione’s Demonica, of course. Yeah demons! Chloe Neill’s Chicagoland
Vampire. Anything by Kresley Cole, Anya Bast, Gena Showalter, Karen Marie Moning,
Jeaniene Frost . . .the list goes on.
Q) What inspired you to write this story?
As
far as inspiration, I can’t really say. This story has been dogging me for over
a decade, keeping me up at night. I only found peace when I finally surrendered
and wrote the book. I love paranormal romance, fantasy adventures, and sci-fi.
Demon Possession provides a good balance of all three.
Like I stated above,
the storyline had been in my head for over a decade. Once I started writing,
the process took roughly seven to eight months, although I peppered in about
three months’ worth of breaks, and I was working a full-time job at the time.
In the beginning, I
wrote for fun, never intending to make it my career. However, the overwhelming
positive feedback I received from readers made it clear that I needed to
continue putting my stories out there.
Q) If you
could be anyone of your characters who would you be and why?
Q) What is your favorite thing about writing?
Q) What are
some of your favorite authors in Paranormal Romance or Science fiction fantasy?
Q) What can readers expect from you in the
future?
I have plans to
continue my Shadow Quest series, there’s a spin off series is in the works, and
I have many ideas for other novels outside the world of Shadow Quest.
