Taste of Cyn

I sat down (virtually) with Zoë Mullins for a short interview. Zoë Mullins’s latest release is Winning Cait, a Contemporary Erotica.

Cynthia Sax: What makes Jackson so very sexy?

Zoë Mullins: Jackson is an alpha male. Protective. Confident. In control. These characteristics help define him as a Dom, but it is these characteristics that once scared Cait away. He is used to people doing what he tells them to because they respect and trust him, but a dozen years ago Cait was too young to appreciate that and felt smothered.

I think what makes Jackson particularly sexy is not because he knows what she needs in the bedroom, but what she needs outside of it. He is willing to take the time to earn her trust as well as her submission.

Cynthia Sax: Where is Winning Cait set?

Zoë Mullins: Not surprisingly a lot of my favorite books have BDSM elements, but they always seem to take place in larger cities with seeming unlimited access to clubs and dungeons. People in small town are kinky too, didn’t you know.

Winning Cait takes place in a small town and features two people getting a second chance at love – a chance to get things right. People in a small town can have long memories and aren’t afraid to take sides. In fact the very lack of privacy in a small town make for its own set of complications.

Cynthia Sax: Is Winning Cait a series and will you be writing more stories in this series?

Zoë Mullins: I knew from the beginning that I wouldn’t be able to leave this group of characters without telling all of their stories, so there will be at least two more stories.

The next one, which I’ve already begun working on, will feature Cait’s best friend, Sophie. When Sophie was diagnosed with cancer, she needed to summon all her courage to fight it. To do so she buried her submissive nature and ended her relationship with her Dom, taking on for herself the role of Domme. Her sexuality was one thing she could control when her body was otherwise rebelling against her. But her sub knows she isn’t happy, and Sophie’s Dom wants her back. Can they work together to give Sophie what she needs?

After that I’d like to do a story about Patrick and Samantha.

Cynthia Sax: What advice would you give new writers?

Zoë Mullins: The best piece of advice I ever received was to ‘Read. Read. Read. Write. Write. Write.’ Learn the craft from those you love to read. And never give up. If you feel you were born to be a writer, as long as you are putting words to paper, you are a writer. Don’t let anyone take that away from you.

Thank you, Zoë Mullins, for joining us today!

*****************************************************************************

After more than a decade, Cait returns home to St. Augustin and the Dom she left behind. A pampered sub, now widowed, Cait has had to adjust to making decisions for herself for the first time in years. With some help from her friends, she’s been able to begin the business she always wanted.

Then Jackson walks into her studio and it’s as if their years apart never happened. As if she hadn’t left him for his best friend. Their intense chemistry is still there, but she’s already balancing running a new business and making ends meet. Does she have room in her life for Jackson, or better yet, is she willing to relinquish her newfound control?

He’s not going to give her a choice. This time he’s determined to earn her submission, and have her back, not only as his sub, but as his wife.

Reader Advisory: This story has graphic sexual language and scenes—no closed bedroom doors (or other rooms) here!
