Indebted: A Sin from Ashes
By: Khai L. Bayne
This story is NOT your standard Happily Ever After. It contains various supernatural beings, scenes of extreme violence, elements of the BDSM lifestyle, group sex, dubious consent, revenge, unrequited love, and a LOT of profanity. It is not for the Prudish, Squeamish, or Those easily offended by a woman who owns her sexuality. If you plan on bitching about ANYTHING that I have just mentioned or other elements of my fucked up imagination. Do us all a favor and just... Don't! I'm not Willie Wonka so I definitely don't sugar coat shit!
Synopsis

Her foul mouth and brazen attitude, had always drawn him to her, but because of their tumultuous past, and not so amicable parting he had to force her hand by calling in his claim on the vow she made to repay him.

Tensions run high as she is thrust in with a team of Theodore's men, who are to help her assimilate back into the world of espionage, sex, and BDSM, to help find the person responsible for killing women in an abusive and sadistic manner. Her animosity towards the vampire runs deep, but she owes him, and he wants to collect. Her goal... Repay her debt, then cut all ties to her past life, once and for all. Will she be able to trust Theodore to keep his word?
Using her old friends, acquaintances, and newly acquired team of supernatural men, to try to track down the killer as they race against the clock to stop the person responsible for the deaths of so many woman, before he strikes again.

About
the Author
Growing
up in a small town Khai L. Bayne always had an over active
imagination. The only girl in a family with two boys, many of her
nights (and some days.) were spent finding creative ways to pass the
time. The daughter of a long time “Trekkie” and “Sci-Fi
Junkie”, you could say it was imbedded into her DNA to be a fan of
the paranormal world. Now over three decades later, her depraved
imagination and love for the world of “Grown-up make believe”.
She has decided to share her depravity with the rest of the world.
Author Interview
1)Can you tell us a little about your book?
It's a paranormal erotic mystery. The lead is a strong, independent, foul mouthed woman named Artisyn. Who doesn't take shit from anyone. She embraces her sexuality and doesn't apologize for it.
She is forced to return to a city she tried to forget when she has to help someone she long ago stopped calling friend.
She is teamed with Naill, Dionysos, Khaleb, and Abel. Four supernatural men who are supposed to help her stop a mad man from killing women.
It's NOT your normal "man meets woman-they fall instantly in love-HEA" bullshit. There are dark scenes(some not so dark) that aren't for the faint of heart. As Well as 4 men who all want the same woman (and they AREN'T making her choose). There are some "questionable" things that happen, some light femdom, as Well as other BDSM themes (my Book isn't strictly about BDSM, though the plot does center around it.) Profanity is used in all facets, and there may or may NOT be some ass whopping getting dished out.
2) What inspires you to write?
Honestly, every day things, I could be walking down the street and see something random that will make me pull out my phone and jot down a quick note, or I could be listening to music and a scene will come to me.
3) Do you have a favorite spot to write?
Sitting on my floor in my bedroom.

4) Do you have any “odd” writing habits?
I don't think it's "odd", but a lot of times I lay on my bed in the dark and "fantasize" about scenes involving my characters.

5) Do you listen to music while you write?
Not all the time, BUT if I do I'll turn on Pandora, Spotify, or my own music library and Rock the fuck out to an eclectic mix of anything from Rihanna to Glen Miller Band.

6) Do you have a
favorite character to write about?
They are all my favorites so to
speak. However, I do have ones that are really fun to write because of
the personality that I've given them makes it Easy to say, "I can
totally see (insert name) doing THAT!" As others can be a bit more
challenging.
7) I read your warning
on your, I loved where you said, "I'm not Willie Wonka so I definitely
don't sugar coat shit". That inspired this next question. Do you have a
favorite candy?
Hard candy: Red and Blue Jolly Ranchers. Chocolate
Candy: Dove Dark Chocolate, Reese's, Kit Kat, and Twix...
8) What are writing projects are you currently working on?
Currently I'm working on the follow up to Indebted: A Sin from Ashes.
It's called Avarice: Sins of Sorrow and Lust, it's actually more of a
"prequel" to the first Book and helps give a bit more background on
Artisyn and why she is the way she is.
I'm also working on ideas for a few more things that have do decided to invade my cerebral cortex. One is a series to be called "Brotherhood of Misfits", and another is currently untitled, but the characters are developing at a steady pace.

9) Are you doing any Author Signing Event this year?
I got
into the game a little late this year, to actually go to one as a
signing author (though I hope that I'll be able to attend one as a fan
later this year). I do however have 4 that I have signed up for for next
year.
