Please give a warm welcome to author Gayl Taylor and remember to enter Breathless Press's big birthday month giveaway at the end of the post.
Now onto the questions I just had to ask Gayl...
Can you please tell us about your
latest/upcoming book(s)?
Tea
For Three is a flirt that I
wrote as part of the Wonderland Tales collection in honor of Breathless Press
turning 5. It is my interpretation (with a bit of a gender switch) of the Mad
Hatter, Cheshire Cat, and White Rabbit, in this case, Hatter, Bunny, and Cat.
The story follows Bunny and her inability to arrive on time for tea. There are
always delightful consequences in the form of punishment from her lover,
Hatter. Of course he manages to find ways to keep her on her toes.
How did you come with the idea for
this story?
This story really came out of thin air. When I
began plotting this tale, I heard Bunny’s voice loud and clear. Then I took the
idea of running late and it grew from there. I knew I wanted to use the Mad
Hatter, White Rabbit, and Cheshire Cat and once my imagination began firing on
all cylinders, it took off. Once I got started, the ease with which the words
came surprised me.
Who is your ultimate "book
boy/girlfriend"? You know, that hottie you read about and drool over.
I am a sucker for a hot rock star or a Navy SEAL. I
have a thing for tortured alpha males who can’t fight the need to protect those
they love. I can’t say there is one in particular that is my favourite but I do
get hot and bothered over a couple of JR Ward’s Brotherhood and Fallen Angels as
well as Stephanie Laurens’ Cynster men.
Who is your Celebrity crush? And
what would you do if you ever meet them?
I have a serious crush on Adam
Levine. He is the all American boy with the hot tattoos, the devilish grin, and
sparkling eyes. He is creative and a musician and that is hot to me. If I ever
met him, I’d probably babble like an idiot or talk about my kids who are also
musicians. Since he is married now, hitting on him is off the table
If you could collaborate with
another author on a secret project, who would you pick to work with and why?
Good question… I have collaborated
in the past but if I could pick anyone past or present I would say Ray
Bradbury. I could not get enough of his books and would be thrilled if we could
collaborate on a Sci-fi romance.
Tea for Three by Gayl Taylor

Punctuality
is not a high priority for Bunny, especially when the penance for her tardiness
is so sweet.
Teatime
for Bunny and Hatter is their playtime. Hatter stresses his desire for her to
be on time but she can't seem arrive when expected. As a result, he devises
delightful punishments full of exquisite torture and mutually satisfying.
One
afternoon, Bunny plans a naughty little treat for Hatter. She is late as usual
and fully expects him to punish her wilful disregard. Imagine her surprise when
she returns home for tea only to find Hatter with a wicked gleam in his eyes
and a stranger curled up in her favorite chair with a most unusual grin.
Teaser:
A barely-there smile lifted the corners of her mouth as she
considered the punishment for her tardiness. Hatter would not be pleased she
was late again. What would he issue as penance for her willful disregard for
his wishes? Spank her or withhold her climax? Perhaps he'd bind her to the bed
and torture her with his hands and tongue. Oh yes! Berenice
greatly enjoyed their afternoon tea. She could imagine his rumbling voice and
scorching gaze as he admonished her. Bunny, as he liked to
call her, you've again tried my patience. I shall need to spank you for
your deliberate disregard for my instructions. Remove your panties, bring me my
paddle, and bend over my lap. Berenice giggled like a naughty schoolgirl.
Hatter invented the most delightful punishments. What will he say when he
realizes she isn't wearing her panties?
Time hardly passed as she strolled along the trail and arrived
at their small cottage in the woods. Brilliant pink, orange, and purple hues
colored the late afternoon sky. Tomorrow would prove to be another delightful
day if the sky was any indication. However, Berenice looked forward to this
evening's delights. She'd never before experienced an all-consuming, passionate
relationship. Hatter introduced her to a wonderland of sensual delights. Berenice
reveled in his dominance, but Hatter was more than a commanding presence. He
cared for her, saw to her needs, and gave her everything emotionally and
physically. Now, Berenice scarcely remembered a time when they weren't
together. She paused at the door and took a moment to smooth the skirt of her
cotton sundress. Drawing a calming breath, she turned the doorknob and entered.
