Blurb: Haven Naranjo is a proud Caddo Indian, with a frightening past. He was a mere fifteen year old boy when he found his parents, part of his tribe, and his high school sweetheart slaughtered by a wereman gone mad. Falling victim to a system that is not always prepared to deal with a shattered young mind, Haven finally gives up on himself. He grows up to be bitter and hateful toward the creatures he hate. Werewolves.
Alexander Prescott is the younger of the two Prescott boys and comes from a large werewolf clan. But things are bigger than that. Alexander, is the true vessel of the Fenrir Ulv and is to become the leader of all supernatural beings, the King of Wolves. On top of that, he’s in love with Haven. He’s known since he hit puberty that Haven is his true mate. But there’s one problem, Haven hates what he can become. However, Alexander has a plan on how he is to charm his, and his wolf’s way into the grumpy Caddo Indian man’s heart.
But fate has other plans for them. The Asa Guard enters their calm country living, determined to use their own kind against them and kill the true vessel—Alexander Prescott.
When war between the Asa Gods and the Fenrir Ulv starts knocking on their door, what side will the damaged Haven choose? Will he find a way of trusting those, especially Alexander, who he feels has betrayed him and let his animal, the eagle, lead him straight to his fate by his mate’s side? Or will he trust the words of strangers, who come to make his quest of seeing all shifters dead a reality?
Haven’s Revenge is a story of an emotional journey for a whole community. It’s about finding acceptance not just from others but in yourself.
Haven leaned back on his heels, quickly wiping his cum covered hand off on the grass before getting up, mumbling under his breath as he gave Alexander a quick glance. “What the fuck was I thinking?”
He stumbled toward camp, braiding his hair back with determination.
At first Alexander was taken aback, almost shocked by his abrupt, cold dismissal but it only lasted for a few short seconds before he got his bearings again. His new found confidence and possessive streak took over. Like the swift “animal” he actually was, he stood, crossing Haven’s path in no time. When their eyes met, sparks flew. There was nothing submissive at all with the look that sparked in Alexander’s eyes.
“No. You’re mine, Haven. Mine. I’ve waited for you for years and I’m done. Get used to it because you belong to me now.” His voice was calm but there was no misunderstanding the words that were spoken. He gripped Haven’s jaw in one firm grip. With a great force, that shouldn’t have been possible, he claimed Haven’s lips with his own, forcing his tongue into his mouth as he gasped at the heated intrusion. Dominating Haven and the kiss completely Haven couldn’t help but to give himself permission to melt into the hungry kiss. Just for a few seconds. When Alexander finally broke off the kiss, they were both breathing hard lips still only inches apart as they tried to stare each other out. Haven was the one who looked away first.
Alexander gave him a calm, almost arrogant smirk before turning his attention to getting himself dressed, rather than standing around with his jeans halfway down his thighs.
“In your dreams,” Haven muttered, shaking his head. He was pissed at himself for letting his emotions get the better of him. See what losing control did? It fucked everything up, and what the hell was wrong with Alexander? That kid needed a new hobby, one that didn’t involve him. But Haven feared that Alexander had made up his mind and wasn’t letting go.
“Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
He was so screwed.

Tell us a little bit about yourself!
Phetra often refers to herself as the odd man out, the dorky book nerd. She’d rather spend time with a good book or making up fantastic stories with even more fantastic characters, than live in the real world dealing with real people. The real world is strange, in a very non-humorous way, and people in it complicate it to the point of wearing you out. In the written word world, whether it’s someone else’s words or her own, things might get busy, complicated, and even downright painful, but somewhere along the line, a heroes always on the horizon. He’s probably not a prim and proper, church-going pretty-boy since the author prefers rebellious men and women who don’t follow the protocols of society. One of her favorite saying is that “Only dead fish follow the stream,” and well she ain’t no dead fish. Phetra lives with her family—two children, a domestic partner, and their two cats in Gothenburg, Sweden. When reading her books, you’ll notice she always finds a way to bring her own culture into her books. The joy of reading and writing comes from her childhood and is something she has always loved, and been passionate to share with others. Phetra loves hearing from her readers, even with ideas of what they’d like to come next. If you are looking for her, the best place to start looking is at home in the quietest corner of the house, where she’ll be curled up with either her Kindle reading or with her laptop typing away.

Will you share a few words about your latest book, other than the usual blurb?
A book that let’s you revisit the mighty Asa Gods and Native American roots with a shifter flavor.
Give us a little insight into your main characters! Who are they?
There are many main characters in this series. It is not just a love story, it is not just a story about Good vs Evil. There are stories within the story but the love story in this book is between Haven Naranjo he’s a Caddo Native with a gruesome past. He is hard on the outside, shattered on the inside. He loves hard, hurts harder and is not your average couch cuddler. Alexander is gentle on the outside a fighter and stubborn leader on the inside. He wins over people with his charm and charisma. He is the pillar in any relationship and the shifter leader. The King.
Will we be seeing these characters again any time soon? Is this book part of a series?
Yes.
Tell us a little bit about your writing style. When and where is your favorite time/place to write?
Early morning when the house is quiet.
What sort of book do you enjoy reading in your free time? What was the last book you read? Did you enjoy it?
Fine as A Frogs Hair by Sean Michael. And yes very much so.
Did you always know you wanted to be a writer? Have you held any interesting jobs while you worked on your books?
Let’s put it this way I’ve always written “things” not always books but writing is something I’ve always loved. My day job is just to keep me and my family a float to pay the bills. Writing and reading is what feeds my soul.
What does your writing process look like?
I usually come up with a character or a scene of some sort and start plotting. After I have a more solid idea I start outlining chapter by chapter so I have the book “written” in short notes. That way when it is time to write I know what each chapter needs to include to get a nice over lap to the next. Obviously stuff happen along the way but those are details.
Why did you choose to write GLBTQ romance? Why not another genre?
I sort of just fell into it by starting to read GLBTQ books. I love the genre maybe because I find a lot of typical romance book straight version to be boring or rather the women are boring. However it is not the only genre i read. Personally to me the GLBTQ genre is not about exploiting that community as a overly sexified genre. To me it is just to open the eyes of our readers or show readers that the GLBTQ is a group of people with everyday lives like the rest of us. They go up go to work, play, fight, argue, Love and hurt just like the rest of us. Some authors in the genre write romance, other write thrillers, crime or whatever they fancy. It’s broad like any other fiction genre.
One last questions…totally unrelated to books! I am a passionate foodie. Is there one thing in your pantry that you would be horrified for people to know that you eat?
I don’t know about making me horrified, but I’m sue with my Swedish heritage that a lot of people will find it strange and plain disgusting that I like herring. That is something we eat a lot around Christmas and during the summer time in different forms.
Thankyou so much for answering my questions. I think my readers will enjoy learning more about you! Good luck in your future writing! You can reach the author at the links below!
