When I Look in the Mirror
by Tanith Davenport
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Paranormal Erotic Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BOOK BLURB:
When hairdresser Tatum Fox takes part in a séance at a party, her only thought is of the attractive man sitting beside her, the mysterious Zack, who appears in her dreams that night and who she hopes to see again. However, when she begins to experience paranormal activity and finds herself confronted by an unnerving client at work, she discovers that the séance summoned a demon – and Zack may be the only person who can free her of him.
Zack reveals himself to be an angel, and shows Tatum that she also has the power to battle supernatural creatures – a power that is increased through sex with him. Their connection soon strengthens, but is Tatum strong enough to defeat the demon with Zack by her side – and can there be a future with an angel, or is their passion doomed to end?

EXCERPT TWO:
“What you saw wasn’t in your head. It was real.”
“What are you talking about? I saw Dante turning into a—into I don’t know what. How could that be real?”
Zack sighed, taking her hand. “Listen. There are things in this world you don’t understand. And Dante is one of them.”
Tatum gave him a look. Seriously?
“This stays between us.” Zack gently took her chin in his hand, tilting her head up to look at her directly, and then…
A sudden glittering haze seemed to surround them, and Zack’s eyes glowed white.
“What the—”
“Shh.” Zack held her still as the glitter dissipated, his eyes returning to normal. “Like I said, there are things you don’t understand. Not yet.”
“And you’re one of them? What are you?”
“You don’t need to worry about me. Worry about Dante.”
“And what’s Dante?”
Zack’s thumb caressed her cheek. “Dante is a demon.”
A demon. The idea would have seemed impossible that morning, and yet now it was somehow believable. Dante, who had given her the creeps since she first met him, who she had seen turning into a hideous creature in the mirror, was a demon.
“How do you know? Ezer has known him ages and never picked up—this.”
Zack rolled his eyes. “Ezer is great, but he’s not the kind of person to pick this up. I only invited him to see if he might have that power—he doesn’t. His senses are dead in the water.”
“And mine?”
“Besides…” Zack continued as though she hadn’t spoken. “Dante wasn’t always a demon. Remember Nicole’s party? That was when it happened. He’s been taken over.”

GUEST POST:
How I Created My Villain
Creating my hero and heroine was a remarkable wholesome process – Tatum is a hairdresser longing to be a colourist, while Zack is a mysterious angel, so building their backgrounds involved a lot of listening to Taylor Swift and imagining them eating bubblegum ice cream. So I had to develop a good, strong antagonist to face them, and this was where Dante came into the mix.
Dante, in his human form, is based on many arrogant, creepy men I’ve met in my life who simply set my teeth on edge from the moment they appeared. We’ve all met a man who sends a revolted shudder through our system, and Dante is that man – although at first Tatum can’t think why that would be. However, it soon becomes painfully obvious why Dante is a man to avoid.
Dante, you see, is a demon – and he has his sights set on Tatum.
I had never written a demon character before (although I had had a character be possessed before). How would I present him? The main thing that characterises Dante to me is his utter ruthlessness and relentlessness. He attacks Tatum’s ex for no other reason than to showcase his power, threatening to break his mind purely so that Tatum will know what he’s capable of. He’s happy to destroy everything Tatum cares about to get what he wants, and no matter where Tatum goes, he will find her.
But Tatum has a power all of her own – and Zack is the man to help her use it.
