Treasured Team Featured Reader – Jane M.

By Barb Drozdowich Leave a Comment

 

I’m thrilled to introduce Jane Moore, one of my Treasured Team Featured Readers.  Jane is one of the reasons I created the Featured Reader.  I wanted to let others get to know my terrific readers. And believe me, after you read Jane’s letter, you will marvel at her story and her!  I mean, c’mon, I never knew another “mature” woman who took up pole-dancing (except me, which I did when I turned 70.)

 

I asked Jane about her unusual email address which refers to “quilting’.  She included a P.S. to her letter describing her passion for quilting.  She said that I could cut it if it was too long.  After reading the P.S. –and had to brush at my tears, I decided I couldn’t cut a word.  Read it and prepare to be impressed.  I sure am, and am honored that Jane is one of my Featured Readers. What a glorious gift she is!

 

 

Dear Taylor:

I don’t know about all of you but I think we live in the most wonderful of times.  I am a 62 year old woman.  I embrace all the changes that life has to offer and let the changes energize me.

I have seen people much younger than myself grow old and curse the computer age we now live in.   I disagree with them!   Especially when it comes to our digital libraries now.  I’m not saying that I didn’t love the old libraries and their ambiance, but somehow life just got so busy that to find time to sit with a book was rare.  But an app on my phone lets me read while I wait in the dentist office, in checkout lines, while hubby is driving!  He loves that I read now and I don’t “help him drive” by telling him about speed limits or stop signs coming up.  We have been married 30 years and he is truly the wind beneath my wings.  He encourages me in all my endeavors. I love him dearly.

I’ve worked as a nurse in the early years and then changed career directions to clerical/computer work as time went on.  I have enjoyed working in the health field, as well as being part of the support staff for law enforcement and county government positions in two states.   Although I’ve never been lucky enough to know any one person like the characters Taylor Lee writes about, I can say that I have seen the similar qualities scattered throughout the different people in the departments I have worked with.  There are good people out there for sure !

I read to keep young and inspired. For the past twenty five years I started taking on a new hobby or interest every year.  The children are grown and a thousand miles away so I had the time to really explore different things.   One year it was gourmet cooking, the next oil painting, the next piano lessons, aerial yoga, quilt making, etc.  And one crazy year after seeing it on the daytime talk shows, I tried Pole Dancing …LOL. If Martha could do it, so could I. I think it was in 2013 or 2014, after reading Taylor Lee’s Grandmaster’s Legacy collection, that I even took up Tae Kwon Do.  LOL.  In my fifties I earned five belts!   It was indeed a workout, but so healthy and I just had to get a taste of martial arts.

I was lucky to come across Taylor Lee’s writing shortly after getting my first kindle.  She has been one of my favorite authors ever since.  She captures the missing elements so many other authors miss.  OMG the full pictures Taylor’s words paint.   They catch all of our senses.  I love that the characters are smart, strong, and fighting evil.  I think they inspire us to be better citizens.   I also like that Taylor’s stories often improve my vocabulary and knowledge of famous brands. I often look up the words or items to learn more.  But I cannot leave out the tall dark handsome strong men that Taylor writes about. Those men who know what their women want!

 

I would love you to send my daughter The Grandmaster’s Legacy Collection.   My daughter is brave, passionate, talented and fearless.  She encourages me when I try things like TKD.  I know she would love The Grandmaster’s — if she ever gets time to read it lol.  The Grandmaster’s Legacy is one of Taylor’s first and most inspiring sets.  I go to The Grandmaster’s Legacy even now.  I re-read the stories when I’ve had a year of reading other authors’ works and need to ‘cleanse my pallet’ and refresh.  There’s great work out there but also a lot of repetition and some pretty poor attempts that don’t come close to the full bodied work that Taylor Lee does.

 

Well that’s about it for the About Me of Jane M.

 

P.S  About my Quilting—Thank you for asking. I get excited sharing my joy!

 

When my dad died I was 23.  I had kept a flannel shirt of his and would wear it when I was missing him and needed comfort or strength.  Well it got me through some pretty rough times…..  but after my life settled down .. after all the stress from a divorce, raising two children, moving, jobs, and all that life throws at you to ‘build character’ …  I found the shirt in the bottom dresser drawer one day and realized how worn it had gotten and all the comfort it gave me.   I also realized how long it had been since I had even put it on!  I was happy and content.  My children grown and a wonderful husband who shares my life.  So I found myself wondering what to do to preserve the shirt and what it represents when suddenly a Quilting show popped up on the TV.  God bless public television. I made a quilt using pieces of the shirt!  I started doing that same thing for friends when they were grieving from loved ones passing. For a friends husband,  I made three quilted throws from his mothers shirt using her shirt for the cross.  Here is one pic.   Quilting is about love for sure. You can feel the energy in the quilts lol.

 

Another quilt that gave comfort to a friend was when I took a photo they treasured of a great day at the lake with a son who had passed away suddenly a few weeks later. Again I saw a show with a technique to try.   I realized if you turn a color photo to grayscale…black and white…. and enlarge it .. it becomes just squares of different tones or shades.  If you Look at fabric through a red lens, you are seeing tones not colors.  Make a photo quilt!

 

So I tried it.  It’s not perfect and you have to stand far away but it worked!

 

If you stand back you see the photo but on your lap it’s just a quilt of different colored squares.  I laugh a bit because when I gave him the quilt, my coworker said the usual thank you, but standing just a few feet away he never saw the picture.   He said me to hold onto the quilt till the end of the day.  A little sad that he didn’t love it, I took it inside and was holding it up at the end of the hall showing it to someone …when he came around the corner at the far end of the hall.  I heard him gasp and say ‘ that’s my son !’  I will remember his cracked voice forever.  He loves the quilt.

 

So for ten years I actually started a Quilting/craft business in my spare time… after a 40 hour workweek. I closed the LLC last year because I just want to quilt for the love of it.  Money is not my motivation. Besides I donated more quilts than I ever sold lol. I’ve donated quilts to hospice and for raffles at benefit auctions. One even sold at the Relay for Life auction and is displayed in the Cancer Center of the local hospital. I really love to hand one to a friend in need of a hug, and to let them feel the love when they wrap it around themselves.

 

Best always.

 

Jane

Graduation time….

By Taylor Lee Leave a Comment

There is no passion to be found in playing small, in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living. —Nelson Mandela

It must be graduation time.  The airwaves and the internet are full of compelling quotes, sage advice, and smart-alecky humor all intent on celebrating, intimidating or amusing our would-be graduates.  I chose the Mandela quote for my particular graduate.  Not that my beloved grandson would ever play small.  In the best ways possible, he is much too cocky for that.

Over the years, I’ve watched Cameron go from a darling, curly-headed kid with a smile that put sunshine to shame, to an accomplished young man closing the door on childhood as he moves confidently across the high school graduation stage.

As the youngest of three brothers, Cam didn’t have a choice to be anything but commanding.  Lamenting the four sleepless years she’d spent, given the bedtime habits of the two older boys, my daughter declared that, by God, she would never go through those years again if she had to tie Cameron to his crib.  It wasn’t necessary.  I remember him at 14 months old climbing out of his crib, striding to the door, tossing his bottle on the floor and demanding, “More shake!”   When I refilled his bottle and handed it to him, he toddled back to his crib, climbed up over the railing and went back to sleep.

As daunting as his older brothers were, Cameron always managed to hold his own, in fact was toughened by the process.  Granted, he did have the advantage of a younger cousin who made it clear from day one that the sun and the moon rose and set with his ‘brossin’ Cameron.  I remember driving them to a game and hearing Cameron tell his wide-eyed, cousin that as bi-racial kids, they sometimes would hear their friends say ugly things about their moms’ skin color. He advised that Xav ignore them.  I almost drove off the road when seven year old Xav asked in a serious voice about my decidedly Caucasian daughter, “Is my mom white?”  An exchange that made clear, at least in our multicolored family, we must have been doing something right.

As he got older, basketball claimed Cam.  An extraordinary athlete whose drive was larger than his refusing-to-grow-tall body, he became a masterful point guard. In high school when he gave into a longstanding injury and declared he wouldn’t play varsity ball that year, he reassured the coach that while he wouldn’t play, he was pleased to co-coach.  No doubt the coach wasn’t surprised.  That confidence and, yes, cockiness, was so…Cam.

When I see him now–an out-of-nowhere six foot, two inch young man with a smile every bit as dazzling as his two year old one had been, I’m amazed and a little wistful.  Is this really the boy who at five years old used to crawl into bed beside me on our cabin porch and say, “Let’s meditate, Mimi.” At which point he would pull out our MP3 player, give me one of the earbuds while he took the other and we would listen together. No more than two minutes after hearing the deep resonant guru’s voice say, “Greetings and welcome”, I’d remove the earplugs and settle into my book listening to the soft snores of my bed buddy.

Earphones continued to play a role in our time together as he hit middle school and…puberty.  When I drove the thirteen, and then fourteen year old boy to school, I’d note if he was wearing his earplugs. If his plugs were in, I would greet him with a smile and put in my earplugs. We would drive to school in compatible silence never questioning what god-awful thing the other was listening to. However, on the odd days when his plugs weren’t in, I removed mine and we would share wonderful, silly and sometimes serious conversation.  All of which– including the silent, plugged-in times, are dear to my heart.

I wasn’t surprised when Cam achieved the status of a student athlete due to his straight A grades.  I also wasn’t surprised when he nailed a raft of scholarships and awards to ease his way into college.  At the same time that he chose to work forty hours a week to ensure that he was pulling his weight.

As for girls, naturally they chased him.  How could they not?  He’s gorgeous. But back to that cockiness. He and his equally dazzling basketball friend chose to go to their junior and senior proms with each other, the easier to dance with as many of the adoring girls as they could fit in. Of course they would. Why ever would they limit themselves?

Cam is also a gifted writer, a talent that showed itself in 8th grade.  At a family dinner, he casually mentioned that he’d been asked to write an essay on one of the people he admired most. To my amazement, he said “I wrote about you, Mimi.”  I’m sure it won’t surprise you that essay is framed and sitting on my bedside stand where it has been for five years.

So Cam, turnabout is fair play.  This is my ode to you, my adored grandson.  Your Mimi is incredibly proud of you and I love you more than you can ever imagine.

I leave you with two quotes – from a singular person in our lifetime, Barack Obama.  The first quote is one that is especially pertinent for you as you move into the bigger world.

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

I know I don’t have to worry about Cam leading the change that this world desperately needs. Indeed, I’m confident that Obama would be reassured about the future if he met Cam.

But my favorite Obama quote that also describes my inimitable and “oh-so-cocky” grandson is what brought down the house at the 2008 Al Smith Dinner:

If I had to name my greatest strength, I guess it would be my humility. Greatest weakness? It’s possible that I’m a little too awesome.”

Ah yes.  Go for it, Cam.  The world truly is your oyster.  Lucky us!

Treasured Reader – Jo Driscoll

By Taylor Lee 1 Comment

I am thrilled to introduce another of my Treasured Readers: Jo Driscoll

 

Jo Driscoll has a special place in my heart.  Why?  Because she has my back.  Not only does she read and review my books, she sends me corrections!  Yep, even though my editor and I do five “edits”, we still miss errors.  But I don’t have to worry because Jo catches them!

 

I was glowing when I read Jo’s letter. I often hear that “older” women don’t like HOT romance.  Mmm, I couldn’t disagree more. I’m 73 years old and obviously like hot, sexy books or I wouldn’t write them.  Jo’s letter was incredibly reinforcing of my view that sexy women age well.  She not only has a bunch of kids and grandchildren but also has great-grandchildren!  And, most important, she starts her letter with the statement: “First of all, I am married to the love of my life.”  Ah, yes. Is it any surprise that she likes my books?  Believe me, I love her and can understand why her husband does. He’s a lucky man!

 

To say that my Featured Readers make my heart sing is an understatement. Connecting with Rita, Lexee, Debbie, and now Jo and my other Treasured Readers on a personal level allows us to acknowledge the special author/reader relationship we have. It’s like personally meeting a long lost friend. A glorious gift for us both!

 

Dear Taylor:

I’m delighted to be one of your featured readers.  Here is a little bit about me:

First of all, I am married to the love of my life. We have 6 children, 14 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.  We don’t have any pets because my husband and I love to travel too much.  I am a retired registered nurse and finished up my career in Healthcare Information Technology.

I love to read, sew, create jewelry, travel, take photography, and spend time with my family.  My passion is spending time with my husband and appreciating the time we have together.  Life is short and you never know what tomorrow will bring.  We have both made a commitment to treasure our time together.  Fortunately, we are each other’s best friend.  Our passion together is traveling.  In fact we just returned from Hawaii.

My husband and I are both avid readers. We sometimes have a “reading night”.  The TV is off and we’re sitting side by side in our comfy chairs reading.  Reading causes my brain to be involved which keeps it stimulated to a certain extent.  Sometimes reading is escaping to another world. It assists my brain in slowing down when time for bed.

I read as a kid.  My favorite books were the Nancy Drew series. I don’t remember reading when I was very young but I know my parents read to me because there were a couple of old children’s books around our house.  I don’t remember what the name of the books were though.

I prefer to read fiction (my husband reads both fiction and non-fiction).  I like romance stories with an HEA and the story lines where good triumphs over evil.  I like romance with strong Alpha males who have feisty Alpha females and I prefer a romance with “heat”. I like a complex plot that touches organizations such as a branch of the armed forces, police, FBI, etc. I also like to read books about heroes who belong to motorcycle gangs provided the gang is one that does good and not evil (see the theme here – alpha males). I like a story line that has twists and turns and keeps me guessing throughout the story. These type plots keep my brain engaged. I do not like to read a cliff hanger book. If I know it ends in a cliff hanger I will pass over the book and not read it.

I love Taylor’s books because they contain the elements I like in my stories.  Frequently I don’t want the story to end.  As a result, I love when there is a series where the characters live on in the subsequent books because I feel that their story is continuing on. In every book Taylor has me expanding my vocabulary because she will use a word I’m not familiar with. I will look the word up for its definition and my vocabulary is expanded.

My favorite series are the “Justice Brothers Series”, “Ladies of the Night”, “Criminal Affairs Collection” and “Red Rock” series. (I could not pick just one.) I would like to introduce my daughter in law to your books and you as an author.  She and I have similar interests and I know she would enjoy your story lines.  I would like her to read the Criminal Affairs Collection.

 

Thank you for honoring me by asking me to share this information.

What you need to know about 9 Powerful Aphrodisiacs

By Taylor Lee Leave a Comment

Do aphrodisiacs really work? Can you change your mood with food chemistry? According to Diana Harrington,Head Chef at Real Food for Life, they sure can!

Here are famous foods and activities known for love, the science behind them, and tasty recipes to share with your sweetie.

1. Honey
• Honey is a great source of boron, the mineral that helps the body metabolize estrogen, the female sex hormone.
• Studies show that boron may also increase testosterone, the hormone responsible for promoting sex drive in both men and women.
• Medieval hopefuls drank mead, a fermented honey drink, to promote sexual desire.
• Ancient Persian couples drank mead every day for a month (known as the “honey month”–a.k.a. “honeymoon”) after they married to prepare for a successful family life.
Tip: Start the morning with Honey Syrup on pancakes or waffles.

2. Chocolate
“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.”
Charles M. Schulz
• Chocolate contains phenylethylamine, which mimics the brain chemistry of a person in love. It also promotes serotonin production. Together they give you a hormone rush that feels like the rush of love or love making.
• There are other foods that may contain more of these ingredients (like cheese) but who cares? Chocolate tastes so good!
• The problem with chocolate is that you risk a sugar crash, putting a damper on your “happily ever after.”
Tip: Create Homemade Walnut Dark Chocolate, a healthy choice since it has no refined sugar unhealthy oils, or preservatives!

3. Almonds
• Through history, almonds were regarded as fertility symbols.
• The aroma of almond supposedly arouses passion in females–or so thought the poets and scribes.
• Almonds provide high doses of vitamin E, magnesium and even fiber.
Tip: Share some Almond Milk that you made yourself with love.

4. Beets
• One of the first known uses of beets was by the ancient Romans, who used them medicinally as an aphrodisiac.
• Beets contain high levels of nitrates which increase blood flow by expanding blood vessels walls. Increased blood flow to the genital areas is one of the mechanisms Viagra and other pharmaceuticals create their effects.
• Beets also contain high amounts of boron, which is directly related to the production of human sex hormones.
• Beets have a host of other health benefits.

5. Garlic
• Garlic is full of allicin, another ingredient that will also increase blood flow.
• In eastern traditions monks and priests are not allowed to eat garlic (or onions) because they are particularly stimulating.
• Garlic has a host of other health benefits, many of which boost your immune system.
• The obvious trouble with this food is that unless your partner is also a garlic eater, they might not like your smell!

6. Exercise
• Exercise doesn’t sound romantic unless it’s a “moonlit walk on the beach.” But it turns out, exercise is so good for the body, that it triggers romantic moods, as well.
• During vigorous activity, endorphins–the ”feel good” chemicals–are released. They can feel like a rush of love.
• Exercise increases blood flow to the whole body and thus like beets and garlic, can increase moods and desire.
• Exercise and building muscle mass also usually increases testosterone levels.
Tip: Go for a walk together. What better way to deepen your love then while connecting with nature.

7. Licorice
• In ancient China, people used licorice to enhance love and lust.
• The smell appears to be particularly stimulating.
• Alan R. Hirsch, MD, neurological director of the Tip: Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago, conducted a study that looked at how different smells stimulated sexual arousal. He found that the smell of black licorice increased the blood flow to the genital area by 13 percent.

 

8. Ginseng
• Asian ginseng is an adaptogen, or a substance that helps keep proper hormone balance in your body.
• Ginseng, helps moderate the harmful effects of stress, enhances your energy and stamina and may improve your sexual function.
• Caution: Because ginseng has an estrogen-like effect, pregnant or breastfeeding women should not take it. Although ginseng is not a kitchen food in the west, it is so well known and universally used that I have included it.

 

9. Sweet Basil
• Sweet basil herb is known across cultures to naturally increase sex drive and fertility by fostering a feeling of total relaxation in the body and muscles while increasing circulation.
• In Italy, it is a symbol of love.
• The scent of basil was said to drive men wild–so much so that women would dust their breasts with dried and powdered basil.
Is it all in your head?
Well…yes.
Each of these foods and activities can affect your chemistry but the effects are often subtle.
If we are cued for love though, even a boost of energy from carbs could be perceived as an emotion or an attractive force. The body then enhances that effect since it can manufacture any number of its own mood enhancing brain and body hormones.
“Money is a powerful aphrodisiac. But flowers work almost as well.” Lazarus Long
This is why western science officially states that there are no effective aphrodisiacs. Scientists are looking for something as powerful and immediate as steroids or Viagra.
But why would we want to use those strong drugs when we could simply have fun eating real food that will enhance our health? An attractive happy body and mind comes from a healthy body and mind.
I say let’s eat real food for love of our self and our loved one.

Amen!

The Frenchman’s Woman is on sale this weekend!

By Taylor Lee Leave a Comment

Have you read The Frenchman’s Woman yet?

It’s on sale for 99 cents this weekend!

 

***Five Star Reviews***

“Bai Chang, the man his enemies call the Frenchman, is as elegant as he is ruthless, as charming as he is vicious.” KDR

“Elena is adept at using her charming spunkiness and tempting innocent – looking beauty to get her way. Until she tangles with the Frenchman.” L. Takamiya

“Bai is annoyed by the fiery redhead’s escapades, but Elena stirs new fires inside him. If he can’t resist this woman, he’ll have to tame her.” M.M. John

Overview

Elena McManus doesn’t mean to strike the spark that leads to war among California’s rival Chinese Tongs.

Incensed, infuriated, Bai turns her over his knee — and the pent-up passion between them explodes.

As the heat between them flares higher and higher, so do Tong hostilities.

Although inexperienced, Elena surprises her accomplished lover with her responsiveness … just as he surprises her with wicked pleasures she’s only dreamed of.

*** More praise***

“Bai warns her that he’s not one of the boys Elena can charm. He’s a man and the first rule is that he makes the rules.” Jay Pearl

“The tales of what the legendary Kung Fu grandmaster has done, the ferociousness of his kills, makes a man’s blood curdle.” Action Junkie

“Best selling erotic historic suspense writer, Taylor Lee, ups the ante with this latest addition to The Grandmaster’s Legacy. If you thought Struck by Thunder and Race for Redemption were hot, The Frenchman’s Woman’s is scorching.” David Adams

“This was a great story! I really loved the characters. Sam was awesome! I loved her kick butt attitude and how men just did not intimidate her. Jake was definitely in for a fight when the two of them met and started out. Sam has built a wall around herself and Jake has to figure out how to handle that. I enjoyed the story and getting to see the other Justice brothers and their fiances as well.”

“A riveting story line like always for the amazing Taylor Lee. Her ability to develop strong and feisty characters is not missing from the suspenseful JAKE. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a captivating read to put on their kindle. 5 stars!”
