#Thursday13 - Quotes from Crow Magic

 
I've taken todays list from my book Crow Magic.
 
 
1.“Well, well. What do we have here? Why, it’s the poster boy for the rich and flashy cowboys. Where’s your hat?” he teased. “Don’t you think you’re too…shiny?”
 
2.“I don’t wear a hat and I happen to prefer shiny, thank you very much. I merely planned on a comfortable night of gambling here in Las Vegas.”
 
3.“The Crow is a carrier of souls from darkness into light and defeats fear in the shadows. He is a keeper of spiritual law.” Her breath caught in her throat and she lifted her eyes to meet his black, glassy stare. “I wish I could keep you with me always and you could shield me from my own fears lurking in the shadows of my mind.”
 
4. “You have been a mouse too long.” He whispered to the wind, “It is time to let the fiery angel fly. Trust me. Believe in me. I will show you how to soar.”
 
5.“Your skin is the blush of the palest flower.” He inhaled. “Hmm…I smell honeysuckle. You have the most beautiful hair I’ve ever seen. It is so vibrant with fierce, turbulent colors. Inside you is an inferno of sexuality yearning to be released. My angel, come with me into the darkness so I may help you find light.”
 
6. “Walk gently through the wood, and you will know its splendor. They are the skin, the tissue, the life of the world.” Tecumseh tucked her hand into the crook of his arm. “Find the beauty in all things, even the darkness; for without darkness we wouldn’t know light.”
 
7.“That’s it, my fiery angel.” His breath caressed her neck. “Wake up and take what you want. Empowerment of a woman begins deep within her. Feed your power. Use me to grow stronger.”
 
8. “Part of getting over a fear is becoming familiar with what you are afraid of.”
 
9. “I am a man who is yours tonight, Lucy.” He walked toward her with arms out from his sides, exposing his nudity. “Draw on the power within you. Look at me. Overcome your apprehension of men. Have I not shown you gentleness?"
 
10. “Lay down.” Her voice firm with the command, she stepped back and pointed to the blanket.
 
11. “By the spirits, woman, be careful what you do.”
 
12. “Hmm….” The sexy feminine purr about killed him. “Spirit of the Crow, I want to fly. Can you help me fly?”
 
13. “Relax and lean into me.” His rhythmic voice lulled her into complete trust. “Close your eyes. It is time to not see but to feel.
***************

#Thursday13 - Lines from Eagle Dance

Eagle Dance is the 2nd book in the Legend of the Spirit series. 


Here are a few quotes and lines from the first two chapters.

Thursday 13 –from first two chapters of Eagle Dance.

1. “I’m six feet tall, and no, I am not a model.” She rolled her eyes. “I get asked that all the time, and I hate it. I’m sorry for sounding like a goofy teenager.”

2. When she took his hand in hers, much like a fortune-teller reading his palm, warm waves of magic traveled up his arm.

3. “The dude has way too much energy.” He leaned toward her. Her light, spicy fragrance tickled his nostrils again. Hmm…delicious, better than coffee. “I’ll bet they have an espresso machine in their break room.”

4. “You say it like Dee-aww-mee.” Dyami enunciated slowly.

5. The battle in his mind claimed ultimate victory with the realization his date would be with the long-legged temptress before him.

6. She tasted better than a sugary cinnamon pastry, and he hungered for more.

7. Definitely one delicious piece of man candy she couldn’t wait to unwrap.

8. “Yeah, wow.” Grabbing his jacket, she jerked him close again and planted another quick kiss on his mouth. “So, are you going to call for that pizza, or am I?”

 9. If he had washboard abs, she’d jump at the chance to lick thick, warm chocolate-fudge topping off them.
10. She spoke matter-of-factly. “We should pick up some chocolate or caramel syrup, too.”

11. “What do you see when you look at me?” he asked and lowered his eyes.

12. The goatee on his chin, and the dark brows, gave him a devilish appearance and, when he smiled, she ached to climb all over him.

13. Dyami moved in behind her and, without a word, seized her waist, joining her rocking movement in time with the music, his body radiating warmth.


Dyami Schafer, a Native American from the Chippewa tribe, leads a lonely life due to his large size and unusual appearance. When his nesting instinct sets in, he turns to Madame Eve and 1Night Stand to help him find his spirit mate. Or at least a woman who accepts him as an eagle shifter.


Amanda Collins never stopped loving the Chippewa boy she knew from her childhood. Maybe a night with a Native American man will help her forget the past and let her move on with her life.

Sometimes, it’s necessary to take a step into the past before dancing into the future. With the help of Madame Eve, will the Spirit of the Eagle carry Dyami and Amanda?

Reflection of an Eagle Spirit

The hero of Eagle Dance is a Native American eagle shifter. 
Dyami has a spiritual guide within his soul 
and has been blessed with the ability to change from man to animal at will. 


The man often reflects strong attributes of the animal.


Native wisdom also honors the eagle for their opportunistic ways. It's not that they're skilled hunters (they are), but the go about gaining their needs in ways that are most efficient. This is a lesson for conserving resources. Work smarter, not harder.

The eagle reminds us to be victorious, brave and strong. We are do be these things with humility. Honor, respect and dignity are very important to those who have an eagle spirit.

Meditate for a moment. 
Does the great spirit send you an eagle?

Eagle Dance

 I enjoy reading a book that takes place in a location I'm familiar with or in the same season that is out my window. Eagle Dance is set in the winter (after Christmas) when one last snow storm hits the Appalachian Mountains. The characters are from Michigan and the background to this book is an entire story of its own we'll save for another time.

Story Behind The Story - Crow Magic

Living in the woods, I have several feeding stations for the wildlife. Families of critters often become regulars. I've had the privalige of watching a family of crows. They are very intelligent and when they watch me, I often wonder if there is more than what I see and my imagine takes over....

One day, I sat on my porch with a cup of tea watching the critters. A crow flew up to me and morphed into a drop-dead sexy man with obsidian eyes, long black hair and tanned skin covering delicious muscles asked me to tell his story. I couldn’t refuse. A story filled with spirituality, sexual awakening and love. A story of a man falling into darkness and finding a woman who surrounds him with light.



The intelligent gaze, silken feathers and the mystical legends of crows led my imagination to create the hero in Crow Magic. Tecumseh "Seth" Crowe, is a Shawnee shaman who guides people out of the spiritual darkness of their lives, but at a cost on his own stability. He is naturally charming but from his demanding “work”, his family fears he’s on a path of becoming bad-tempered and destructive. His mother and brother convince him to use Madame Eve and her 1 Night Stand service to find a special woman before it's too late and he's lost into the darkness forever.

Crow Magic, 1st book in the Legend of the Spirit Series

The belief is that the two are meant to be mated: a legend that toes nicely with the story and with the sociology of actual crows, and the path to this awakening for Lucy and claiming the mate for Tecumseh is both spiritual and sexual: both with their own levels of beauty and intrigue that is carefully described and defined. - Gaele, Book Reviewer, Editor, Author
