Wordless Wednesday

 

"I've Been Loving You Too Long"

I've been loving you too long to stop now
You were tired and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger as you become a habit to me
Ooh, I've been loving you too long
I don't wanna stop now, oh

With you, my life has been so wonderful
I can't stop now
You were tired, and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger as our affair, affair grows old
I've been loving you, oh, too long to stop now

From the Phantom Of The Opera...

 

This is a line from the song All I ask of you. My favorite version is by Barbra Streisand.

News & updates..

My upcoming novel is a murder mystery- police procedural. There’s action, drama, romance, suspense, and so much more. It takes place in and around New York City. Some of your favorite characters from previous novels pop in for a visit. There are also a few new characters that you’ll find interesting. I’ll post more about it as the preorder date approaches. If you’d like to be on the list to get a free copy of the audiobook once it’s released, please email me: @ lilactymeproductions@gmail.com  Note:  There are a limited amount of copies, so please get your request in ASAP.

South Korea Cherry Blossoms

Cherry blossom trees are so beautiful and vibrant. I'd love for some of my South Korean readers to email me photos from the cherry blossom festival.  Send your pics to:

lilactymeproductions@gmail.com and I'll post them here. 😊 Thanks in advance.💓


 

Summer's first impression of Joon

 

Joon greeted Summer with a dazzling smile. He was tall, with thick brows, a chiseled jawline and full-sensual lips. Tufts of his dark hair, peeking out from a beanie hat, framed his handsome face.

Summer tried not to stare, but… Damn! She thought.

"Come Away With Me "

And I wanna walk with you

On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come

Come away with me, and we'll kiss
On a mountain top
Come away with me, and I'll never stop loving you

I wanna wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me, in the night

Seductive Sunday

This remains one of my favorite love stories. I just love Wen.💕

 

Whatever you're going through...💕

 

Sunday read..

When I'm working on a novel, I stop reading novels written by other authors. Iron House has been on my reading list for the last three years. I have a ton of books to read and can't wait to get to all of them.😉

Move..

"Long enough have you dream'd contemptible dreams, now I wash the gum from your eyes. You must habit yourself to the dazzle of the light and of every moment of your life. Long have you timidly waded holding a plank by the shore, Now I will you to be a bold swimmer."

Walt Whitman

 

Writing break music..

This song is featured in Brooklyn's Song. It's one of the most beautiful love songs ever written.

The first time, ever I saw your face

I thought the sun rose in your eyes

And the moon and the stars

Were the gifts you gave

To the dark, and the endless sky.💕

Saturdays question & answers..

 

Tonya asked:

“What was the most recent TV series that you binged?”

Answer: I just finished Peaky Blinders and I thought it was brilliant.

“Can readers send you and the pets gifts?”

Answer: It warms my heart that you’d like to send a gift to my little fur babies and myself as well. 

Thanks so much for  contacting me.... and also for your kind words.

Sunshine...for you.

There isn’t a timetable for grief. You’ll have your good days and your bad days. The passage of time helps... somewhat. You shouldn’t feel obligated to move on if you’re not ready.  Take your time. Sending an abundance of love and 🌞 your way.

Happy National Pet Day 2026

 

 I already had a cat when my mother passed away, but there's no way I was going to send her beloved dog to a shelter, so I took her in. It worked out... now the two of them are inseparable.💕
