Featured Interview With Houston Havens
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I’m a true Irish lass…born to an ever rolling stone of an Irish father…so, though my heart lives in Ireland, I’ve lived nearly everywhere. And I have continued my father’s tradition by never really tossing me hat on any bed for too long. Today, I says home is where the heart is.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I’ve always loved books. I started studying writing back in 1990 but didn’t seriously think about publishing until a few years go. Sinful Surrender book one of my Psychic Menage Series’ was the second book I put out for submission.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I love authors Kim Mullican, Suzy Knight, Matt Holgate, Anita Cox, Tom Clancy, Robert Monroe, Jane Roberts, Johanna Lindley, Michael Newton, Ingo Swann, and Fred Alan Wolf….just to name a few. As you can see I cover many genre’s in my reading material.
Johanna Lindley was the very first to inspired me to write a romance book. Anita Cox writes erotica and I love her voice and style, but I’m more comfortable writing erotic-romance ~ falling between romance and erotica.
When readers buy one of my books they will see I have a very clear voice of my own and a very different way of showing and telling a story. Being Irish…I can’t stay in a writers box…or stick to one or two genre…my book Sinful Surrender crosses ten+ genre in that one story. As an artist of words I express my stories in my own unique way and those who have read my work find it refreshing.
To readers who want to really escape ~ Let me tempt you~ because what has inspired me most in my writing has been my life. I retired from a successful modeling career and an adventurous jet-set lifestyle to set the world on fire with my erotic romance books. I strive to entertain my readers with seductive stories that I’ve created from my decadent imagination and my provocative lifestyle.
My interest reaches into the paranormal. I’m fascinated with quantum science. I have a passion with myths, and the lure of my own mysterious Celtic Irish-Druid bloodlines. All of which I’ve combined with generally unknown truths, strange facts, and questionable fiction to create hot, sizzling stories for both men and women to enjoy.
My novels reflect a mix of the past, present, and future, with sexy blends of futuristic science fiction, paranormal fantasy, western romance, and always love everlasting.
I’m an author of six romances, a seven book erotic romance series, and numerous articles in literary magazines.

Tell us a little about your latest book?
Book two of the Psychic Menage series: Phantom Desire (all five star reviews)
Now this book was one I worried over. Book one Sinful Surrender of this series was such a big hit I feared failing my readers…Kind of like when you see a great movie and then when it’s sequel comes out, it sucks…I didn’t want book two (Phantom Desire) to let my readers down. The story touches on a very sensitive subject (I won’t give a spoiler) but it was a subject that kept me worrying until it came out and I saw all the five star reviews. It was then I knew I hit my mark…with the paranormal.
Phantom Desire:
Mind traveler Chandra Lamar is on the run, not only from her post-catastrophic dystopian government but from a past she can’t remember. A psychic vision pushes her to recall her purpose for being, but it’s a ghost that awakens her desires for a life she fears she’ll never have. Both push her to remember the past because it threatens what she wants in the now; the Nodin men.
Andonis Nodin battles to accept his failures. The heavy burden nearly breaks him when he can’t save the one he loves from the grim reaper’s grip; he questions his desire for Chandra, the woman he blames for the death around him.
Nikias finds true love with Chandra in his arms, but is desperate to stop her from seeking revenge on a mission he knows is a one way trip.
Ortello knows for them to recapture the love they once felt for each other, he must be willing to let her go. But overcoming his obsession to make Chandra his and his alone isn’t easy.
Will Chandra go through with the vengeance in her heart or give it up for love? Who is the powerful woman in her haunting visions and will those revealing apparitions crumble her world with the Nodin clan? Does Chandra find true love in the arms of the Nodin men or does her Phantom Desire forever own her heart?
