Fun Friday

While I'm off working at the Montrose Blueberry Festival, I'll leave you with some fun.

The hero in Crow Magic is a Native American Shifter and the story came from the stories told every summer around the campfire at our family cottage in Michigan. Our neighbor, Indian Dave, used history, legends, and spiritual lore to weave fantasy and reality into timeless tales. My favorites included Spirit Animals and Shifters.

“Once a man opens himself to the Great Spirit, a guardian spirit in the form of an animal will be gifted upon him. This animal is a part of his soul. Some may choose his animal spirit, others will be born with theirs; the spirit within the chosen gives the body the ability to shift from human to animal The man may need to control instinctive urges as well as listen to the animal’s wisdom. The animal spirit can sense good and evil as well as the man’s one true love, the mate for both man and beast. ” – Indian Dave

What kind of animal spirit would you have?

Think about it and then enter my Crow Magic Tour Contest.

Ella’s Turning What? Birthday Blog Hop

Friday August 9th - Sunday August 11th, 2013

Summers were spent at the family cottage in Michigan.
Each July 4^th became an extra special celebration; my sister shared her birthday with the nation. Surrounded by extended family and friends we ate watermelon and drank champagne while watching fireworks and listening to tales told around the bonfire.

We often included our neighbors and while munching on smores we listened to “Indian Dave” a member of the local Chippewa tribe weave his tales of animal spirits and men who could shift into creatures.  My sister would braid my hair so I could pretend to be a Native American with an animal spirit and dance around the fire.

Now that we are older, I am still jealous she has the best birthday party in the world, she still braids my hair, and I am the weaver of tales about handsome men with spirit animals in their hearts who can change from human to creature.

Crow Magic Review & Contest

Crow Magic received a 4-STAR review

on The Jeep Diva Reviews

"This was a far different installment to the 1Night Stand series that I am familiar with, and will certainly appeal to some readers far more than the more formulaic story arc that is more traditional in the series.  Mary Quast has created a short erotic story that nearly screams for a full length story, but that is due to the lovely characterization,  the volumes of information and the strong spiritual journey that the reader follows with Lucy as she meets and enjoys her one night with Tecumseh"

A Midsummer Night's Dream-Man Blog Hop

The cool night air caressing hot skin is sensual and erotic. Releasing the physical body from restricting clothes is letting the spirit of one's soul out to play.

Please enjoy this excerpt from Crow Magic.

“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?”
 

She nodded and approached him while tugging the strap of her sundress.
 

“Keep your dress on. Take it off when you are ready. This night is about you. Explore my body, learn from it, and take whatever you want. You are in control.”
 

He led her to the center of the blanket and faced her. She stood still with her fingertips resting on his waist. Cupping her face, he lost himself in her eyes.
 

“I am your instrument to use tonight. Open yourself up and delve into this opportunity I offer. I am yours to command. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
 

“I think so.” She considered his offer. “What do I do?”
 

“Follow your feminine intuition.” He couldn’t hold back a chuckle. “Touch me, tickle me, beat me, kiss me, bite me, lick me, suck me…whatever you want. Take whatever you need from me to strengthen you.”
 

In the moonlight, an endearing, innocent blush spread across her face. Amazing how a woman who lived her life in fear caused by abuse could be so naive of her own sensual power. If she knew her potential, she could bring him to his knees.
 

Please, bring me to my knees.

Name A Hero Contest

When I finished writing Crow Magic, a lovely story featuring a Shawnee Crow shifter named Tecumseh "Seth"Crowe, an eagle visited me.

The large bird sat on my porch railing looking me over with golden eyes and flexed his powerful talons. Through a mist the creature shifted into an incredibly sexy man. His eyes were the same gold as the eagles. His appearance dominated my porch but he moved in a graceful manner. He stood tall with a barrel chest dressed in baggy jeans and worn boots. His shoulder length black hair tipped with grey and a bit of white brushed his forehead. He ran his hands through the silky layers and explained like the eagle, his hair will change to white as he ages but he is assured me he’s in the prime of his life. I couldn’t agree more. Wowza!


 

Please name this handsome eagle shifter
from the book Eagle Dance

This hot Jay Tavare look-a-like comes from a Chippewa tribe and is currently a Conservation Officer for the Michigan Department of Natural Resources in a secret division used to catch wildlife poachers. He is looking for a good woman to live in his heart, warm his bed and love him for who/what he is. A friend told him to fill out an application for 1 Night Stand. He is seriously contemplating the idea.

He has a story to tell but he needs a name.

When he was a kid he spent his summers with relatives at the lake. His uncle called him "Little Otter" because he would spend more time swimming than fishing.

Leave your idea for a name.

If it is chosen it will be the hero’s name forever and you will be acknowledged in the book. Thank you. I will send you a special handmade beaded bracelet and a free copy of Eagle Dance when it's released.

 

When you leave your idea, make sure I can contact you if you’ve won.

Contest will run June 20-28.
