Submission
by
Lori Toland
BLURB:
British Agent Drake Steele never thought
when he was hired on at the Serious Organised Crime Agency that his job would
involve spanking a co-worker. But when the colleague is Lord Robbie Covington,
the sexy red-headed computer hacker for SOCA and MI-6, Drake can't agree fast
enough to pop Robbie's cherry and pull him into the sensual world of BDSM.
Now
they are caught up in a web of lies as they pose as members of the jet-setting
crowd. Drake and Robbie have to race against the clock to stop a weapons haul
that could threaten the safety of all Europe. As their covers begin to fade and
danger is closing in, protecting Robbie is Drake’s most important task, but
neither man is ready for the moment when their hearts are put on the line.
Excerpt:
As
we reached the edge of the crowd surrounding the presentation area, a blond
gentleman stepped in front of us. “Robbie Covington, it’s been quite some time
since you’ve been to Prague,” he said in accented English.
“Joseph!”
Robbie exclaimed and widened his eyes. “I’m surprised to see you here.”
Joseph
pulled Robbie loose from my hold and hugged him hard. “I can’t believe you’re
here.” Joseph grinned. “You said the last time we talked it would be a couple
years before you could come here. Why didn’t you ring me to let me know you’d
be in town?”
“I
didn’t know until the last minute,” Robbie said as he pulled away and smiled.
“It was a surprise.”
When
they separated, the thick gold-and-diamond bracelets surrounding Joseph’s
wrists disappeared beneath his sleeves again. They proclaimed him a slave, most
likely to the dark-haired man standing right behind him.
“I
apologize for my slave,” he said. “But he was so eager to see his old
schoolmate again, he forgot his manners completely. I’m Erich.”
“Nice
to meet you. I’m Drake Steele.” I shook his proffered hand as the other men
separated.
Joseph
dropped his gaze. “I’m sorry to have embarrassed you, Sir.”
Robbie
opened his mouth, no doubt to give Erich a piece of his mind for being
high-handed. Gripping his elbow to stop him, I sighed indulgently and then
pulled him back to my side. “It seems we both have insolent subs. I’ll punish
him later,” I said with a chuckle.
Joseph’s
dom smirked. “I think my sub needs it now, or he’ll never behave properly
tonight. Care to watch?”

Submission interview questions
I had the chance to ask some questions of Lori too! Hope you guys enjoy reading her answers as much as I did!
~M
~So tell us about yourself. What got you interested
in writing?
Hi, I’m Lori Toland and I’m a CEO and a mother to
two cats and a wife to a very adorable British hubby. I started writing because
I had stories to tell and I enjoyed getting lost in my worlds I created.
~What's your guilty pleasure?
I love being able to discover a book series that I
can read all at once.
~What was your favorite character to write, and
why?
I still adore Tony Terranova but Drake Steele is a
very close second along with Stefan Zuliani. OMG. Can I have a Drake and Stefan
sandwich? Please? :D
~Do you prefer hot or cold weather and why?
I prefer warmer weather but only because of my lupus
and the complications with it. I used to love the cold and bundling up for it. It’s
also great for snuggling! J
~Take one of your stories and tell us what you
would change about it if you would do it over again.
Soul Seduction. Rather than making it a two part
series, I would just put the two books into one. I may still do that in the
future.
~What has been the toughest criticism given to you
as an author? What has been the best compliment?
The best compliment was that I was a reviewer’s
treat after finishing up her reviews. That was really nice. The toughest
criticism is when my world building is not enough for readers. Oftentimes
that’s a tough choice to make. Trust me, I never feel like it is enough but
there is a fine balance between overtelling and letting a reader’s imagination
work.

~What's the best advice anyone has ever given you?
Never stop writing. If you are a writer, never let
rejection get you down. Keep going and never stop!
~What part of the writing process do you dread?
I really dread the writing from 0-10000 word count.
For some reason, that always seems like an insurmountable obstacle but once I’m
past that, I’m gone like an arrow.
~Is there anything you’d like to tell? Maybe
something in the works you would like to promotion? Feel free!
I’m always working on something! But I do have a hot
and fresh new release from Loose Id in the “Dangerous Affairs” series called
English Chaps. J
It’s a fun little short.
~Where can readers find you on the web?
I’m at loritoland.com, which is also my blog. Come
say hi to me! I’m also on Twitter and Facebook as Lori Toland.
