Janna wants a tattoo, and sexy tattoo artist Mark
knows just what she needs. Together they explore the line between pleasure and
pain.
Janna Sommers is a
brave woman who knows just what she wants: a tattoo -- a full sleeve black and
grey tattoo, to be specific. It's an ambitious goal for anyone's first ink, but
when she meets handsome and gifted tattoo artist Mark Temple, she finds herself
yearning for something more than one of his original designs.
As she willingly places
herself in Mark's experienced -- if sometimes cruel -- hands, she finds herself
submitting to a strong and uniquely creative dominant, one who arouses intense
physical sensations in her -- both pleasure and pain.
Bound to his tattoo
table, will she also allow herself to be used as a living canvas for Mark's ...
darker desires? Will she allow herself to be marked, indelibly and forever, as
his?

Okay, Sheri, before we get to your excerpt, bio and links, I'd like to ask a question.
When
you write, do you ever model any characters after actual people?
I’ll never tell. Heh. No, seriously, I think all
writers infuse their work with at least some “real” don’t they? Even if it’s
fantasy, sci-fi, steampunk, horror, whatever, your own values, ways of seeing
things, it’s all in there. It has to be. It’s your essence in there. Even if
you’re putting on a voice, it’s your put-on voice, if that makes sense. So yes,
I write about fictional characters that I make up entirely, but my real life
experience in BDSM, since the early 90s, is definitely part of my tone and
overall style, my “voice,” as they say. And sometimes I use small phrases in
writing that I have used, or still use, in real life. I like my characters to
speak a little more realistically, I guess. Aiming more at that in newer
writing, too. I read over my older stuff and cringe. I can’t make
character-Doms say things that make me laugh because they’re so cliché. For
example, “submit to me now!” That kind of thing. Jesus. But I did that as a
parody (Bound for Disappointment),
though.
I'd love to ask you more questions about your "real life" experiences, but I don't want to keep our readers waiting. Below is a tantalizing excerpt from "Bound & Inked" by Sheri Savill.
“Sorry, but the thong has to go, girl,” he said.
Her breath came in shallow pants as a gloved hand palmed her
pussy and squeezed briefly, then released and moved to the sides of her silky
thong. He slipped a finger up under the fabric, raising it off her skin, and
pushed the scissors under and snipped. He snipped the other side, fully
exposing her cunt as the material fell away. He lightly traced her mound with a
gloved finger, looking pensive. It occurred to her that she was like a canvas
being prepped for paint – the surface had to be clear, set up for the artist
before he could begin to create.
“Definitely don’t want this,”
he said as he abruptly yanked the thong completely away and tossed it to the
floor.
Oh fuck, I’m so wet. I know he can
see how wet I am.
“Someone looks like she’s enjoying this already,” he
murmured, staring into her face. “I’m going to start tattooing your arm now.
Lots of work to do. And yes, I can guarantee… It’s going to hurt.”
It’s going to hurt. His words set off a strobe-like
shudder; her entire body shivered briefly. Janna took a deep breath and
released it slowly, realizing that she had a long night ahead of her.
“Oh. Wait.” He tilted his head
slightly, studying her. Then he reached out and yanked her white tank top up
and over her breasts so they were fully exposed. The top bunched up in a roll
over the tops of her soft mounds, framing them. “That’s better.” He stepped
back a little, looking satisfied.
Janna’s mouth opened slightly, her breath coming shallow as
the cool air of the room hit her nipples. How they ached, wanting to be
touched…
Oh my God. Oh my God.
It was really all she could think.
Though I hate to leave Janna bound and ready to be inked, I
want to tell you a little more about Sheri now as well as where you can purchase her books or visit her online.
SHERI SAVILL is the
author of dark BDSM erotic romance, and yes, humor both kinky and vanilla. She
is a real-life submissive who was into BDSM way before it was cool. A career in
media and journalism (reporter, editor, DJ, copywriter) drove her to the brink
of insanity, so she became an attorney and web developer.
Known for her
irreverent blog, Savill is heavily tattooed, pierced, super geeky, easily
annoyed yet fun-loving, and caffeinated. She speaks often of a treasured
"letter from Dave Barry" that no one has actually seen. Award-winning
sex author and columnist Violet Blue called Savill's BDSM parody
"painfully, hilariously timeless."
When she's not charging
her portable electronic devices, Savill spends her time writing, thinking about
writing, or wishing she had written. She scored a 780 out of 800 on a
standardized writing test of some sort and, just as she predicted, has never
had to use calculus in her entire adult life.
