Synopsis:
Amber will go to any lengths to avoid the werewolf council who hunts her – even leaving behind the one person she cares for the most. Traveling across the US, she avoids other packs and remains on the run by working in backwoods bars.
Always alone, she never gets involved. One day she overhears a conversation by one of the bars patrons. With her senses on high alert, Amber cannot ignore the warning signs. Following the man to his campsite, she finds out why.
Amber must decide if she can allow herself to be drawn in to rescue the person being held hostage. Or should she stick by her rules of not getting involved? With the impending first shift to werewolf, her bloodlust will take over. Can she go against her personal rule of not killing a human, and if so, would it be A JUSTIFIED KILL?

Do you have a favorite character? Why is she your favorite?
Since the story is based on Amber, she is my favorite character. She is independent and has learned to take care of herself. She continues to grow as a person and realizes that she can’t always just walk away from certain situations.
What do you hope readers will get from your book?
The short story allows the readers to immerse themselves into a world of werewolves and how things are not always in their control. As an individual, you sometimes have to step out of your comfort zone.
About the Author:
What/Who inspires you?
At this time my inspiration comes from the fans asking for more stories. It inspires me to keep writing on the series. I want to give them what they want.
Hardest aspect of writing? Best/Easiest?
The hardest aspect of writing is living up to the expectations, the fans and my own. The best is hearing from a fan how much they love the story and can’t wait to read the next one. The easiest is thinking of the stories I want to write. This takes me full circle back to the hardest aspect in that it’s sometimes difficult to get to all the stories.
Who is your writing hero?
Sherrilyn Kenyon is my hero, I want to be just like her when I grow up.
About the Future:
What’s next for you?
I am currently working on Adam’s story…it’s with the beta reader now. I have not decided on a title for him yet, but this will be another short story and like A Justified Kill is Ambers Tale in the Heart of a Wolf Series, this new story will be Adams Tale in the Heart of a Wolf Series. This is based on him in his younger years, when he meets Blake and in no way takes away from my plans for his full length novel later in the series.
I am also working on Softest Touch, Book Two of Heart of a Wolf series.
Outside of this series, I currently have two erotica stories in process and hope to have one, if not both, completed by the end of June.
One outrageous goal for the future?
My outrageous goal for the future is to be writing full time within the next 3-5 years. Writing is a hobby for me and I want to play full time.
Do you have any advice you'd like to share with other aspiring writers?
When people hear that I am published, they tell me they want to write a story. Well, write the story. It doesn’t have to be perfect, that’s what beta readers and editors are for.
Randomness:
Sweet or salty? Sweet
Beach, plains or mountains? Beach
Online, letters or in person? Online
Ebook or print? Before my answer on this question was print. Since I purchased my Kindle, I’m kind of loving it…but there is still nothing like having that book in your hands.
