- What is your “day” job if you are not a full-time author?
I am a full-time author, can watching reaction videos be considered a job?
- If you wrote a book about your life, what would the title be?
The Life and Times of Crazy
- What is the hardest thing about being an author?
Trying to write all the stories in my head, even if I had ten lifetimes, I would never write them all.
- What is the best thing about being an author?
I get paid to make stuff up!
- Have you ever been star-struck by meeting one of your favorite authors? If so, who was it?
I don't get starstruck meeting celebrities, but if I met Robert Jorden, I'd probably lose my shit. Although, he's dead, so I'd probably run like hell if I saw him.
- What book changed your life?
Not a book, but a movie. I came out of The theater after watching The Neverending Story, when I was 12 and I knew I wanted to be a writer.
- What were some of your favorite books growing up?
I read a book as a girl called The Passionate Winter by Carol Mortimer. That's one of my favorite little romances, though it's probably out of print now. Also It and the Stand, and Wheel of Time. I'm a genre whore.
- What books are currently in your to-be-read pile?
Have you got an hour?
- Which do you prefer: ebooks, print, or audiobooks?
Audio actually. Definitely audio all the way. I absorb what I listen to better than what I read. I will read something I really want to read on Kindle but prefer audio.
- If you could live inside the world of a book or series, which world would it be and why?
Forgive me for the difficult answer, but most of the books I read have worlds no one would want to live in. I mean, give the people good lives, and I'd love to live in The Hunger Games, but then it wouldn't be The Hunger Games. As to why, because I'd love to have a friend like Katniss. It's a weird thing to say, but Smoke and she would get along well, I think.

Book Description:
This world is full of deadly beasts. And I might be worse than any of them…
I remember life before the solar flare destroyed society. And I remember pieces of the dystopian hellscape that followed.
But my memories are fractured. Full of holes and inconsistencies.
How I managed to slit the throat of a biker twice my size is a complete mystery.
But I did. Easily and without thought.
Now, the dead man’s four ruthless MC brothers want me as their captive plaything in the bedroom, and their assassin in the outside world.
I should hate them. Fear them. But I don’t.
My attraction to these sexy savages is as inexplicable as my nagging feeling that something—or someone—is coming for me.
All I can do now is hope the sleeping beast inside me is ready to kill when I need it…and that the brutal men I’m falling for don’t get caught in the crossfire.
“Forged in Lies, book 1 in the Monarch series, is a dark, post-apocalypse why choose romance featuring a strong heroine, and the merciless alpha males who love her. (Think The Handmaid’s Tale meets Sons of Anarchy, mixed with a dash of Firefly, but with more happy endings and spicy times.) Download today and hope your e-reader doesn’t go up in smoke.
***WARNING***This book contains sexual situations and dark scenes that may upset some readers. If you have triggers, please do not buy this book. Cliff-hanger ahead. HEA at end of series.
Excerpt 2:
Havoc
My cock’s
still hard as a rock when I thump down the steps toward Brute’s infirmary. As I
reach the door to the basement, it flies open, almost hitting me in the face.
“Watch
where you’re going, fucker,” Sage snaps. He shoots me an irritated look before
stomping up the steps.
I glance
back at him. Professor’s in a fuckin’ mood. I growl under my breath. For a
genius, he can be really stupid sometimes. He’s supposed to be watching her.
Shaking my
head, I walk into the infirmary and halt. Venom’s standing at the foot of the
bed, staring down at our captive. She’s cuffed hand and foot to the bedrails.
Venom’s pulled her ass forward so her knees are bent. My fists clench. He’s
idly running his hand over her bare stomach.
“Thought
you said no one was supposed to touch her, Keep.” The disrespect slips out.
He jerks
as if I caught him off guard. I like that I startled him.
“My house,
my rules.” He doesn’t take his eyes off her. My jaw tightens as he slides his
hand down to her pussy. “She’s fuckin’ beautiful,” he muses, not seeming to
realize he’s spoken. “Like an angel.”
Her eyes
are still closed, and she doesn’t move. I drink in her naked body, long limbs
immobilized. My cock’s hard to the point of distraction.
Venom
strokes her pussy as if it’s his. Fuck that, she’s mine. Mine.
Shit,
women are a dime a dozen to me, but I hate the thought of anyone’s hands on
her. His being my fuckin’ Keeper’s all that’s preventing me from throwing him
through a wall into next week.
“You want
her, Havoc?” Eyes on her, he slips one finger into her cunt. She still doesn’t
move.
“Actually,
I wanna snap your neck,” I say.
He grins.
“I know you want her, and I guess I do too. Tired as fuck of fighting it.” He
withdraws his fingers and licks her juices off. “We need her out of our heads.
It’s our job to look after things. We both gotta have clear heads to lead the
club outta this mess.”
I grunt in
acknowledgment. He’s right. This possessive shit’s making me want to shove my
cock down her throat until she chokes.
“She needs
to be fucked,” Venom rasps. “I wanna see you give her what she deserves.”
Shit,
yeah.
Before,
the idea of letting anyone touch her rankled, but now everything in me’s
telling me to share her. She isn’t only mine. She’s ours. It just feels… right.
Like something in me is choosing him.
Choosing
him for her.
I cross
the room to them. Venom makes room for me, moving to her head. I step into the
spot between her legs, looking her over. She’s toned without being bulky. Even
in repose, there’s a certain grace to her body. Hard and soft all at the same
time, built for battle. And fucking.
I tweak
her nipple and smirk at him. “Think it’s time to wake her up, Keep.”
His smile
widens. Then he bends down and lays one right on her lips.
She
thrashes awake, arms and legs tugging hard on the cuffs as if she’s being
waterboarded.
This is gonna be fun.
As a young girl Raven Dark dreamed of being abducted by a savage alien warrior, whisked away by a brutal pirate, or rescued by a cape-bearing hero. When none of these men came to claim her, she brought them to life in her stories. Then twelve years ago she met the man of her dreams. He doesn't wear a cape, fly a spaceship, or wield a sword, but sometimes she swears they've mind melded.
Raven lives with her dream man and their one cat that thinks she's a dog in the Mundane world's version of Ontario, Canada. When she isn't working on her latest erotic romance novels and crafting interesting worlds in which to set them, she's spending too much time with friends, feeding her Youtube addiction, or curled up on a couch watching favorite shows with her future husband.
