New Audiobook Release: The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave (Nava Katz #4)
I’m thrilled to announce that The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave—book 4 in the Nava Katz series—is now available in audiobook! 
Even better? My fantastic narrator, Hollie Jackson, recorded it ahead of schedule, so you get to dive back into Nava’s snarky, action-packed world sooner than expected.
In Crave, Nava is finally settling into her new relationship… until assassins, demon drug lords, and magical conspiracies decide to crash the party. As she and Rohan investigate a deadly alliance between the Brotherhood and a witch with demon-binding powers, things spiral fast. And with a dangerous new drug hitting the streets—one that wreaks havoc in horrifying ways—Nava’s next mission might cost her more than she’s ready to lose.
Expect sizzling romance, laugh-out-loud moments, fast-paced action, and the kind of magical chaos only Nava can stir up.
You can listen now at the best value on my store:

It’s also live on Audible, and coming soon to Kobo and other retailers as files finish going through quality control.
Whether you’re catching up or diving in for a re-listen, this is a great time to grab your headphones and hang out with Nava again.
Happy listening!

New release Audio Demon in Disguise
There’s a new release audiobook for you: Demon in Disguise (Bedeviled AF #4) is live ! Huzzah!
The final book in this series (The Demon’s Due, #5) will release in August. I’ve actually managed to schedule it so all formats will release at the same time. (Look at me go. lol)
So now’s the perfect time to get caught up, or start this series if you haven’t already.
Welcome to Vancouver, where the coffee’s strong, the magic’s stronger, and the murders are getting personal.
With tensions between the magic and non-magic communities already at a breaking point, Aviva goes undercover on a murder case that could shatter the city’s fragile peace. As if that weren’t enough pressure, she uncovers a deadly connection to demons—and her own past.
But why have one code red crisis when you could have two?
Enter the Ashbishop: a shadowy figure convinced a vampire breeding ritual is a good idea.
Spoiler alert: it’s not.
And forget juggling stolen moments with Ezra between supernatural smackdowns. Fed up with her work-life chaos, Aviva realizes that sometimes, the best disguise is no disguise at all.
Cherry Bomb is ready for her close-up.
Featuring a smart, funny heroine and a banter-fueled vampire romance, this wickedly addictive urban fantasy will keep you reading way past bedtime.
Dive in now for a fiendishly good time! (Direct from author. Best deal.)

I believe it’s also live on Audible and Kobo. Other retailers are just going through QC.

How to Deal With Difficult Characters in Your Urban Fantasy Novel
Dear characters,
I’m sorry I threw you off a cliff yesterday. If it’s any consolation, it hurt me a lot more than it hurt you. I mean, I revised the scene 3 times to get your deaths painfully satisfying. That takes time, you know. I realize however, that I should have used my words to work through my anger.
Words like annoying. Lazy. Stubborn. All talk no action. Which, yes, is a phrase but still applicable.
My God, your interior monologue was killing me. Whine whine whine. Do something resembling anything. How can you stand to listen to yourself anymore? Gah, you deserve each other.
takes deep breath Again, sorry. That outburst was inappropriate.
Although, while we’re on that topic, you know what else is inappropriate? Your attitude.
My story is supposed to be a funny, sexy urban fantasy, you mopey bastards. Lately you’ve failed spectacularly to grasp that simple fact.
Would a hint of wit or levity have killed you? No. No, it would not. You would still be alive, safe and sound to continue on your merry way if you had just given me a freaking inch.
But you did not.
No. It’s too late for apologies. You’re dead now.
And yeah, sure I’ll resurrect you tomorrow. Probably. Because the thought of starting with all new characters ends with me as the lead on the 11PM news and not in a “hey look who won the lottery” way.
I will use the miracle of the undo function to reset you. But then we’re going to have a serious talk about where you both went so wrong. I’m through messing around, kiddies. Piss me off one more time and you bite it.
Permanently.
Mama is a cruel and capricious goddess.
Love,
Your creator, deb xo
***Thanks for coming to my TED Talk on homicidal authoring. If you’re also currently beefing with your fictional characters, solidarity. If you’re one of my readers wondering why your fave just got stabbed in the face with a magical pitchfork… now you know.
Stay tuned. Resurrections are pending. Probably.
Want more magical mayhem, snark, and dangerously sexy characters? Check out my urban fantasy series here.

I’ve Had to Make a Tough Decision: Nava Katz Ebooks Are Returning to Kindle Unlimited
Running Deborah Wilde Books has been a dream come true. It’s as close as I’ll ever get to owning a bookstore, and I’ve loved connecting with readers through my direct store. Plus, selling my books directly allowed me to offer exclusive deals, better prices on paperbacks and audiobooks, and—keep my books out of Kindle Unlimited (KU).
Why I Originally Went Wide
Like many of you, I subscribed to Kindle Unlimited, and I get it. As a reader, it’s an incredible deal. If I had paid for every book I read through KU, I’d be eating ramen for life. I also appreciated that KU lets readers try new-to-them authors risk-free.
But as an indie author, KU has serious downsides:
Inconsistent royalty payments. Payments didn’t always match up with order numbers, and Amazon insisted it wasn’t a glitch.Unfair exclusivity rules. Traditionally published authors can sell wide and still be in KU, but indie authors can’t.Amazon’s return policy. Until recently, readers could return a book up to a year after purchase—even if they had read it multiple times. Amazon changed the return window to a week, but they still don’t check whether the book was read.Why I’m Returning to Kindle Unlimited
Unfortunately, times are tough, and the reality is that many readers can’t afford to buy books outright right now. At the same time, Facebook’s privacy updates have made it harder for me to reach new readers through ads.
My store, Deborah Wilde Books, has taken a major hit, and after a lot of soul-searching, I’ve decided to return all Nava Katz ebooks to Kindle Unlimited, effective immediately.
My hope is that this will bump up my revenue enough to keep paying all those wonderful editors, proofreaders, cover designers, and narrators who help bring my books to life.
What This Means for You
If you’re a KU reader, you’ll be able to binge the entire Unlikeable Demon Hunter series at no extra cost. (***If you’ve already read it through KU, I don’t get paid for re-reads. Lol)Paperbacks and audiobooks will still be available at Deborah Wilde Books.The final book in the Bedeviled AF series is coming soon! And, as always, it will release early on my store before going wide.How You Can Help
Now more than ever, word of mouth is everything. If you love the Unlikeable Demon Hunter books, please spread the word about them being in KU! Share with your book-loving friends, reader groups (where appropriate), and social media.
I’ve also included a shareable graphic below—please feel free to use it!
Thank you for your support. I’m staying glass half full and can’t wait for you to read what’s next!
