I’m so happy to be here at the Blog for The Creatively Green Write at Home Mom. Thank you for having me. My name is A.S. Fenichel but you can just call me Andie. I write in a few different genres because I never want to be locked into one thing, also I can’t decide and just let my muse take me where she wants to go. The Demon Hunter Series is a paranormal historical romance but I also write traditional historical, contemporary and contemporary paranormal romance.
I’ve been asked for a list of 10 things so today I thought I’d give you 10 things I love to hear my readers say. Ready?
1. Reece is my new book boyfriend.
2. Are you going to write a book about (secondary character)?
3. I stayed up all night to finish your book.
4. I cried when this book was over. I wanted more.
5. I just reread you book. It was wonderful to visit old friends.
6. Why did you have to kill off that character?
7. Are there going to be more books in this world?
8. This book made me laugh and cry.
9. I got totally lost in this world. (Or any comment that shows me they really got the theme of the book.)
10. Your books are the perfect escape from real life.
I’m not saying you have to say any of these things to me. But if you do, you’ll be my new best friend.
Enjoy Betrayal. It’s a story about love and trust that goes beyond reason. Part of an epic story of good vs. evil, Betrayal proves that love can blossom under the most terrifying and impossible circumstances. A fact that I wholeheartedly believe.

Book Description:
In service to His Majesty, one must be prepared for Hell.
To survive as a scullery maid requires hard work, discipline, and a stiff upper lip. To survive as a Demon Hunter is something else entirely. Elizabeth Smythe learned this after she was captured by Demons and rescued by Hunters. Now a Hunter herself, Elizabeth’s first task in this new and strange world is to aid the recently wounded Lord Reece Foxjohn, and get him back into Demon-slaying shape. . .
Reece Foxjohn is used to defying convention. He enraged his family by becoming a Demon Hunter, and prefers eviscerating the spawn of Satan to mixing with the ton. He is a man who doesn’t hesitate when he knows what he wants, and what he wants is Miss Elizabeth Smythe. To watch her behead the progeny of Evil is to behold a thing of beauty—one he must claim for his at all costs. . .

Excerpt
2:
“Don’t you even
want to know why I broke the chair?”
She shrugged.
“You’re angry. I do not blame you. I would be angry too.”
He stepped
closer. His breath warmed her cheek as he lifted her chin with one finger.
“Since you will offer no lecture and have no plans to draw out my feelings, why
not tell me why I’m so angry?”
Swallowing to
clear the lump in her throat, she gazed into those eyes. “You think you’ve lost
everything. You were on top of the world, and now you have to start over again
and from lower than before. You doubt you can ever recover and fear you will
end up a crippled old man.”
He gaped as he
stepped back from her. His head hung, and the shoulders she’d been admiring
slumped. “Dear God, Lizzy, am I that obvious?”
Her heart ached
for him, and she stepped forward. Wrapping her arms around his middle, she
rested her head on his chest bare chest. If heaven existed, she’d found it. She
imagined an eternity snuggled against his warmth. “I do not think it is quite
as clear to everyone, Reece. You put up a good front at the wedding. Lillian
likely saw through it, but maybe not the rest.”
His arms remained
at his sides, but his cheek brushed against the top of her head. “Lilly has
known me for years. How is it you see through me so easily?”
“You forget I
have spent part of every day for a year watching you heal. Plus, I know how I
would feel if I had to start training all over again. You were probably already
strong when you started training to become a hunter, but I was only as strong
as heavy pots and buckets filled with water can make a girl. I would be in
despair if I had to do it all again.”
One hand skimmed
the center of her back. “And would you? Would you start all over again, if you
lost everything you have gained in the last year?”
She tipped her
head up and stared him in the eyes. “I would do everything in my power to be
better than before.”
“And if you
failed?”
“I would pick
myself up and try again until I succeeded.” Her heart tripped.
His head lowered
until full lips she’d longed for touched hers in a whispered kiss. She
stiffened at the first touch and relaxed as his hand came up to cup her cheek.
He pressed his
thumb to her jaw, and when her mouth opened, he swept his tongue inside.
The kiss reached
through, around, and inside her. Rising on her tiptoes, she opened for him and
matched his kisses with her own desperation. Yes, this was what she wanted,
more of this man. Her imagination had not done the moment justice. She threaded
her fingers through his hair, pulling it from the neat queue. Soft tresses
spilled over her hands. She burned as she molded against him.
Reece broke the
kiss and stepped back, heaving breath and staring at her as if he’d never seen
her before. “I should not have done that.”
Elizabeth gasped
to catch her breath. The pleasant tightening in her lower belly knotted
painfully. Tears threatened to push out, but she refused to cry in front of
him. “I see. Well, what is done is done. I will see you at dinner.”
Before she could
run from the room, he grabbed her arm. The temptation to hit him so hard he’d
release her warred with her desire to nurse him back to his former glory. Maybe
then, he would see more than a scullery maid when he looked at her.
“Please, Lizzy,
do not be cross with me. I wanted to kiss you. Just because I want something
does not mean it is the right thing. I should not have forced myself on you,
but I was caught up in the moment.”
Jerking her arm
away from his grip, she laughed. “You think you could have kissed me if I was
opposed to it? I am a demon hunter, Reece Foxjohn. Just because you have not
yet seen me in action, do not suppose I am not capable of stopping you or
anyone else. I know you, but you clearly know nothing about me. You should
rest. I will see you at dinner.”
She gathered her
wits in the hallway before she ran to her room, bolted the door, and looked for
something she could break. She paced the carpet, took up a pale green vase,
lifted it over her head, and then set it back on the table with added care.
Breaking the expensive glassware would not change anything. It would not make
her his equal. If The Company could not do that, then nothing could. Above her
station, he viewed kissing her as an error in judgment. His conscience would
not let him take liberties with the help. She understood. In fact, over the
years, she had wished more of her employers had been so honorable. Ironically,
she hated him for the same virtue that made her admire him so.
