Blurb: Haven Naranjo is a proud Caddo Indian, with a frightening past. He was a mere fifteen year old boy when he found his parents, part of his tribe, and his high school sweetheart slaughtered by a wereman gone mad. Falling victim to a system that is not always prepared to deal with a shattered young mind, Haven finally gives up on himself. He grows up to be bitter and hateful toward the creatures he hate. Werewolves.
Alexander Prescott is the younger of the two Prescott boys and comes from a large werewolf clan. But things are bigger than that. Alexander, is the true vessel of the Fenrir Ulv and is to become the leader of all supernatural beings, the King of Wolves. On top of that, he’s in love with Haven. He’s known since he hit puberty that Haven is his true mate. But there’s one problem, Haven hates what he can become. However, Alexander has a plan on how he is to charm his, and his wolf’s way into the grumpy Caddo Indian man’s heart.
But fate has other plans for them. The Asa Guard enters their calm country living, determined to use their own kind against them and kill the true vessel—Alexander Prescott.
When war between the Asa Gods and the Fenrir Ulv starts knocking on their door, what side will the damaged Haven choose? Will he find a way of trusting those, especially Alexander, who he feels has betrayed him and let his animal, the eagle, lead him straight to his fate by his mate’s side? Or will he trust the words of strangers, who come to make his quest of seeing all shifters dead a reality?
Haven’s Revenge is a story of an emotional journey for a whole community. It’s about finding acceptance not just from others but in yourself.
“Yes, you’re right, Bakincbi, a wolfman. The next day as the Fenrir Ulv’s keepers came to feed and water him, they were stunned to find the wolf gone and this giant, two-legged wolfman in its place. In fear of what the Fenrir Ulv had become, they started stabbing his body with knives to kill him once and for all. That was how his wolf spirit escaped, and without the Asa Gods knowing he escaped to earth to possess a human body to live in. To fool them even more, and make it harder to find him, he decided to spread his seed by procreating with human females. That way, he’d no longer be the only living creature capable of turning into a wolf.”
“Iba’t’, what is procreate?” Haven stumbled over the difficult word, looking to his grandfather for the answer.
“Procreate—means to have children, to make sure of the existence of the race,” Vojin explained, taking a deep breath to continue with the story.
“Reid said that to have babies, a boy has to put his willy into a girls yoohoo.” Haven gave his grandfather a dreadful look, his lip almost quivering at the thought. “I don’t ever want to do that with a girl, they’re yucky. Do I have to?”
Vojin had to bite the inside of his cheek to stop himself laughing. He made a mental note to talk to Reid about what talks to have and not have with Haven or his brother for that matter.
“No, Bakincbi, you don’t have to. No one can force you to be with anyone you don’t love, and not everyone has children.”
“Oh, but I want children, Iba’t’. I just don’t want them with a girl,” Haven explained with confidence.
Vojin smiled, patting Haven’s cheek, looking into his grandson’s eyes, like he knew something no one else did.
“You can have as many children as you like, with anyone you like,” Vojin assured him.
Haven let out a relieved sigh, relaxing back into his grandfather’s embrace.

Phetra often refers to herself as the odd man out, the dorky book nerd who rather spend her time with a good book or making up fantastic stories with even more fantastic characters, than live in the real world dealing with real people.
The real world is strange in a very non humorous way and people in it complicate it to the point of wearing you out. In the world of the written word no matter if it is in someone else’s words or that of her own things might get busy, complicated, and sometime even plain painful but somewhere along the line there is always a hero on the horizon. He might not be prime or proper, a church going pretty boy since the author prefer rebellious men and women who don’t follow the protocols of society.
One of her favorite saying are that only dead fish follow the stream and well she ain’t no dead fish.
Phetra live together with her family, two children, a domestic partner and their two cats in Gothenburg, Sweden and when reading her books you will notice that she always finds a way of bringing her on culture into her books.
The joy of writing and reading comes from her childhood and is something she has always loved, something she is passionate to share with others. Phetra loves hearing from her readers even with ideas of what they want to come next.
If you are looking for her the best place to start looking for her is at home in the quietest corner of the house where you’ll find her either curled up with her Kindle or her laptop typing away.
