Weekly Update - Touring around the virtual world with Dangerous Submission


This week, I'm touring around to all sorts of places, saying hi to fans! Here's this week's schedule.



5/6/13      Harlie Williams, Writer
5/6/13      Cryselle's Bookshelf 
5/7/13      Kinky Book Reviews
5/7/13      A Little Fiction of Every Flavour
5/8/13      What's On the Bookshelf
5/8/13      Michelle Graham, Erotic Romance
5/9/13      Ramblings From This Chick
5/9/13      Scorching Book Reviews

So stop by and enter my fab contest! I'm giving away a $50 gift card and a $25 gift to two different followers.

Now, a couple questions that I have been getting are:

Q: It says Dangerous Submission is #2 in the Dangerous Affairs series. What happened to #1?

A: Awesome question. #1 is The Long Con. When writing The Long Con, I had no idea it would turn into a series. I received quite a few emails about Tony and Bradley (okay, mostly about Tony) and I said I guess I need to write more about them. There were other people involved in their future endeavors, one of them being Drake Steele and then of course, along came Robbie Covington and Dangerous Submission took off like a shot. But of course there was fun to be had by Tony and Bradley so English Chaps became a short story for FREE coming out next week from Loose Id. Check back next Tuesday for links to pick it up.

Q: OMG!$#!! I love Drake and Robbie so much. Are they going to come back in a future book?

A: I love Drake and Robbie too. I'm sure one or both of them will make a come back in a future book, just not as the main characters, unless I do a short like with Tony and Bradley (Hint...if you didn't notice before, I listen to reader feedback when it comes to writing. You wanted more Tony and Bradley, with an extra helping of Tony. YOU GOT IT!)


Have more questions. Email me at lori at loritoland dot com or leave the question here. I promise I won't bit but Drake Steele might! :D

Dangerous Submission: The Playlist

As many authors will tell you, music is key to creating a background of everything going on around our characters in the story. With one song, it can set the mood and take a scene in a direction, I never even dreamed of!

Drake and Robbie had a fiery chemistry in so many different ways. I loved Robbie's fiery spirit and Drake's strength and caring. I hope you enjoy listening to the musical soundtrack as I loved writing their story.




1. Midnight CityM832. Touch The SkyJulie FowlisThis song reminds me of Drake :D3. The Power Of Love (2006 Digital Remaster)Huey Lewis and the NewsStronger than Steel...4. StarstruckLady Gaga5. We Found LoveRihanna6. Total Eclipse Of The Heart (Dance Mix)Nicki French7. The WarriorScandal (ft. Patty Smyth)8. FinallyCe Ce Peniston9. Skyfall (Full Length)AdeleIn this story... I write my first spy. Watch out...10. Speed of LightRaphael Lake11. Too CloseAlex Clare12. Bolero - Closing CreditsMoulin Rouge, Vol. 2 [Music from the Motion Picture] This music spoke to my soul. It's playing during the
scene between Judas, Stefan, Drake and Robbie.
13. Holding Out For A HeroBonnie Tyler14. Titanium (Feat. Sia)David Guetta15. Shake It OutFlorence + the Machine16. Pride (In The Name Of Love)C + C Music Factory17. guardianAlanis Morissette18. IridescentLinkin Park

Caturday: Special Chester Story

So Chester has been especially cuddly to me since I haven't been feeling well. I swear I should just book an appointment with my doctor if Chester gets cuddly, but how can I explain that my cat cuddling me is a sign that I'm sick? Next on Diagnosed by Dr. Cheddar....

Anyway, I was resting and he crawled into bed with me and I had to take some pictures because he got under the covers and cuddled to me...



 
Oh Hai Mum!
Well then, he settled down next to me because every time we put a blanket over him, he can't find his way out. So then I sent this text to Kele Moon...

Well after chatting with Kele, I took the blanket off him but he didn't leave. And no, I didn't call him dumb. He's a lovely, sweet and precious cat.


That little bro of mine, he falls for every trick in the book.Even the treat trick Mum plays on him works every time. *sigh* When will he learn?
