Excerpt One:
“Demon hunter.”
“Prick,” was
all John had to say before the demon made the first strike.
As the demon
punched John in the side of his face, he shook off the initial shock. Tasting a
drop of blood from the corner of his mouth, John cocked his head to the left
and then to the right while flexing his neck muscles. Before the demon could
land a second blow, John pulled out his blade. The blade was black, cut
uniquely, and the hilt bore symbols that were not known to many outside the
inner circle of Hell. As he angled the blade to hit the light a bit more, the
demon’s eyes grew narrow.
John realized
the demon was more afraid of the blade than him. He used that fear against the
demon. He waved the blade, taunting his enemy. Tossing the blade from
hand-to-hand excited John before the kill while he watched the demon’s fear
grow.
“You smell of
Asteroth. What does he want with me? Do you like my toy? Want to play with it,
prick?”
“Too many
questions, hunter. Asteroth wants your head; then again, don’t we all?” The
demon snickered while shifting in his stance. “This body, do you like it,
hunter? I thought it would be capable of killing you. This body is strong,
hunter. Strong enough to kill you.” The demon shifted in the body he possessed
and then went to move closer to John.

Topic: What do you hope readers will gain from your book?
When I began to write Son of Asmodeus, I didn’t think much
about what readers would gain from the book because honestly, I wasn’t even
sure where the book would lead me. But after the first two chapters, it dawned
on me that readers are going to just fall in love with Sully or Mick, or even
both. You can sense that there is a chemistry between these two, even though
they don’t realize it at first. From their first meeting, it was more of Sully,
a lone demon hunter, helping out a cute gothic bartender. As they learned more
about their individual birthrights, the chemistry grew only more intense.
From that point, I had hoped that readers would relate to
them in some way and maybe see a little of themselves in the two characters. My
characters are written so that a reader can relate to them in some way or
simply, just fall in love with them. While this is not a full blown romance,
there are elements of romance throughout the book with the flair of the
supernatural.
