GENRE: Urban Fantasy Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
50% boobs. 50% sarcasm.
100% new breed of hunter.
After a bumpy start as
the only female demon hunter in the top secret Brotherhood of David, Nava Katz
heads to Prague for her first undercover mission: unmasking a demon movie star.
She'd be all kinds of thrilled if it weren't for the fact that her fellow
hunter-with-benefits, Rohan Mitra, has reclaimed his rock star status and assigned
Nava the role of groupie.
Rejecting her "be
a good girl and follow orders" directive, Nava unleashes an alter ego
guaranteed to hook their celebrity target and drive Rohan crazy. No
downside-until she finds herself up against Rohan's past, the Brotherhood's
antiquated thinking, and her own identity issues, turning her personal life
into a bomb that could blow up the entire operation.
Sparkly and deadly;
it's a plan.

Excerpt:
Rohan’s arm shot out to the wall, blocking me. The two of us
faced in different directions. How apt.
“Move,” I said
He didn’t budge.
I stared resolutely ahead.
Finally he dropped his arm.
I pulled my keycard from my coat, walking directly to my
room. No passing go. No collecting $200.
“Don’t leave.” He spoke quietly but in the silence of the
corridor, I had no trouble hearing him.
My hands balled up. Hadn’t it been enough for one night?
That thread between us that had felt so comforting earlier threatened to
strangle me now. Anger fueled my turn. I would have welcomed a corresponding
anger in him, but the naked longing on his face and the defeat in the slope of
his shoulders undid me. That and his sincere, “I love watching you dance.”
The hallway was empty but it suddenly felt hard to breathe.
He held out a hand.
I leaned back. The magnetic push/pull between us demanded a
certain distance, a certain resistance, as much as attraction. Wrung out on
every level, I couldn’t afford to let Mr. Force-of-Nature Mitra take advantage
of my weakened boundaries to redefine our hook-ups into whatever vision he had
of them.
The air conditioning kicked in and I wrapped my arms around
myself.
“When you see my shower, you’ll thank me.” He scrunched up
his face, a lock of hair falling boyishly over his eyes. “Nothing happens. Just
sleep.”
I wasn’t sure if that sweetened the offer or not, but I
nodded.

A global
wanderer, hopeless romantic, and total cynic with a broken edit button, Deborah
writes urban fantasy to satisfy her love of smexy romances and tales of chicks
who kick ass. She is all about the happily-ever-after, with a huge dose of
hilarity along the way. “It takes a bad girl to fight evil. Go Wilde.”
