All Julian wants for Yule is his submissive: the gorgeous, blond, sexy Karl. But Karl has just got a new job in his homeland of Sweden. Can Julian arrange a session that's intense enough to touch both Karl's pagan beliefs and his heart and keep him in England?

Re-enacting the sacrifice of Odin upon Yggdrasil as a safe BDSM scenario might be the thing to give Karl inner knowledge; after all, Yule is the feast of Odin, the all-seeing. And submissives do find clarity in surrender…

Have I ever mentioned that my first name is Karl (Orjan is my second, but the one I've always been called by)?

Oh, and I'm a Swede living in England who happens to know a bit about Old Norse traditions and mythology.

Don't know if I dare read the excerpt...

[grin] No, you hadn't. Oh dear...

Well, I found it amusing. And while I tend to get blond in summer, if I don't cover my head from the sunshine, the words "gorgeous" and "sexy" told me it's not about me (the fact that I'm a straight non-sub was another hint). But what are the odds that you'd have someone fitting that well on your friendslist?

Well, a couple of years back when mishalak was utterly convinced he'd never, ever find a boyfriend, I was plotting out a romance with a hero who (coincidentally) had some resemblance to mishalak and started the novel convinced that he would never find a boyfriend. Asked watervole for suggestions for the character's name. Guess what she came up with? And no, she didn't know mishalak other than as a name that occasionally commented in her friends-of-friends, or his meatspace name.
