In the hot seat: Parker Williams & Haven!

Questions for Parker Williams

There will be a LOT of readers who will want a follow-up book for Haven’s Creed. How do you decide if a book gets a sequel or not?

I need to see another story. Haven's story ends on a happy note, after a world of pain, but his quest to protect kids is pretty much eternal, and I think he knows his job may not be done.

Do you have a “The End” indulgence after you finish writing a book?

Not after I finish writing it, but we usually have dinner when the book has finished edits and is almost ready to go out.

Go-to sexy read?

I don't really have a sexy read. My reading habits tend toward more sweet and funny. Willa Okati's 'Mighty Casey' is my must have when I need a sweet fix. No angst, just love and goodness.

How do you keep the sexy in your characters?

Viagra, naturally. I grind it up and sprinkle it over their food.

Questions for Haven:

Favorite Disney villain and why?

Okay, I'll tell you, but if Kelly finds out about this, I will track you down. I won't put up with his shit because I like…Ursula. :sigh: Yes, I love Urusula. Which is weird, because if she were a real character, I'd hunt her down and kill her for what she did to Ariel. But, yeah, when she sings 'Poor Unfortunate Soul', it gives me chills.

What urge always gets the better of you?

The urge to get revenge on someone who deserves it. I can't let it go when I see the pictures Rook's sent me of kids who've been hurt or killed. I need to hunt them down and make them pay for what they've done. And if I get to have a little fun while I do it? Well, that makes things better.

Describe your perfect day.

Sitting out by the koi pond with a nice snifter of Chivas in my hand, watching as the fish drift along on the currents. It's as close to bliss as I think I've ever come.

How do you keep the sexy in your relationship?

With Sammy I never have to worry about that. He's got skills like you wouldn't believe. In fact, when he says….um….never mind, that might be a little too much information.

Blurb:

An act of violence destroys his family and ends the life he knows. To escape his haunted past, he joins the military, where, as a sniper, he is trained to kill with precision and detachment. When a covert organization offers him a new purpose, he becomes Haven, an operative devoted to protecting the innocent when he can and avenging them when he cannot.

After ten years of battling the evil in the world, the life no longer holds the attraction or meaning it once had, and he’s ready to walk away. Then he meets Samuel, a young man forced from the age of twelve to work as a sex slave. If ever a man had a need for Haven, it is this one.

Yet nothing about this growing relationship is one-sided. Sammy gives Haven a stability he’s never known, and Haven becomes the rock upon which Sammy knows he can depend.

When Sammy reveals something about the enemy Haven has been hunting for months, Sammy fears it will destroy what they’ve built and he’ll lose his home in Haven’s heart.

Excerpt:

When I was fifteen, I killed my first man. Every time Arnie, the guy my mother was shacking up with at the time, drank, he got it into his head she was cheating on him. He’d start slapping her, and that turned into full-fledged beating within a few months. When he was done, he’d start on my sister.

There were nights she’d crawl into bed with me, sobbing. For the longest of times, she wouldn’t tell me what happened, but when I found blood on her pajamas, I knew. I’d tried to stand up to him, but he beat me badly enough that I couldn’t go to school for two weeks until the bruises faded. But I got off lucky. The things he did to Chrissy gave me nightmares. I’d hear her cry out and knew there was nothing I could do but hide in my bed, my pillow covering my head. He was bigger, meaner, and stronger than me, and he reminded me of that fact constantly.

The old lady never said boo about it. She always forgave him and tried to justify what he did by telling me how much stress he was under. How he was a good man and didn’t mean it. It was just the drinking, she swore. It was more like he was a bastard and she was his meal ticket.

I came home one night and found him whaling on her, my sister’s body crumpled in a heap, her head smashed in. The son of a bitch had a gun in his hand, slick with blood, and he threatened to kill them both, screaming he wouldn’t let her leave. She slapped him. It wasn’t hard, but it shocked him enough that he dropped the gun. I picked it up. He sneered at me and called me a weak-willed fag.

I looked at the gun I held in my hand. The instrument of my revenge. The means to saving my sister.

“Give me the gun, you fuck. It’s not a dick, you wouldn’t know what to do with it.”

The bullet I put in his forehead showed him how wrong he was. He lay on the floor, blood bubbling from the wound, and his eyes locked on mine as he took his last breath. I wanted that fucker to know it was the weak-willed fag who had done this to him.
