Book Blurb:

Your Place or Mine

A cool and swanky book that will help you decide if the man you're looking for is Mr Right, or just Mr Tonight, and much, much more.

 

Excerpt from the Introduction - (Kindle Locations 35-51). 

When I first arrived in New York, I was an aspiring actress, but like many artistic types, I had to get a job to pay the bills. While waiting for my big break, I used my charisma to ace a job interview, which landed me a job at a Wall Street brokerage firm. Though I didn’t expect it at the time, it was a perfect beginner’s course in how to interact with members of the opposite sex.

Working at the firm was definitely not my dream job, and I found myself getting bored. But then I noticed that my male counterparts at the office would flirt with me a lot. Rather than getting annoyed about it , I used it to my advantage. I discovered I could use my charm to get them to do tasks around the office for me . That’s where I first invented a lot of the seduction techniques I describe in this book. I found I enjoyed getting men to do what I wanted.

But eventually, working at “Groundhog Day Brokerage Firm” lost its luster. Being in a cubicle all day felt like a prison to me. So I gave my two weeks’ notice and quit. I had gotten everything I had possibly wanted out of the situation . It was time to do something different.

I re -evaluated everything. What did I really want to do? I wasn’t exactly sure, but it wasn’t going to be sitting behind a desk all day. I knew what it was that I didn’t want. Now I needed to figure out what I did want.

One night, some friends and I wandered into a strip club. We had had a few drinks, and I went with the promise of more drinks and fun. When I woke up the next morning, I hazily remembered that I had been offered a waitress position. Wow! I could serve men overpriced drinks, and convince them to leave me massive tips. At least it would be more interesting than my last job.

This was one of my first positions in the service industry, and I quickly learned that the flirting and seduction tools that I had started to develop at the brokerage firm worked at the club just as well. I quickly learned to pick up on hints that a person gives you about how they want to be treated.

Loved this book because I could totally relate to it – “"I am a woman of "a certain age" who is using the internet to find my match and found this book to be so true to life...I laughed and I cried and found the friendships to be spot on. I look forward to reading more books about "The Four". ~ Review by Laughingspirit

Guest Article by Romney Humphrey

Allie Dunlop, a fifty-year-old divorcee, is coerced by her three closest friends into online dating with age-appropriate contenders. Despite finding David, the “perfect match” via a dating site (Why does she always feel sleepy when she kisses him?), she finds herself intrigued with Jameson, a successful entrepreneur volunteering at her non-profit. He is smart, wildly attractive and feels like a soul mate. The problem? He’s twenty-five.

Complications are legion. Her friends can’t understand why Allie would consider Jameson. Why won’t she stay with the perfectly suitable David? And, her twenty-one year old twin sons might have a problem with her dating someone four years older than they.

Jameson, an 'old soul', introduces Allie to Kate, a charming four-year-old he has taken under his wing, and Arthur, another friend, in his eighties and a beguiling personality. Clearly, this is not your typical twenty-five year old man.

The book is also a portrait of the role of friendship; Allie’s friends, (The Four) have always been involved in her life decisions. The dynamic has worked historically for the group. If Allie succumbs to the pull of Jameson, will that also jeopardize the core of her bond with The Four? Jo, one of the group, proves to be a less than stellar member.

The audience for this book are women forty through seventy. It has been read and discussed by book clubs in this demographic. The response has been enthusiastic. One club spent an hour debating whether Jo should stay rejected by the group after a personal betrayal. Readers love the idea of Twenty, Allie's non-profit. There has been whole hearted buy-in of the romance between Jameson and Allie.

Excerpts from a July Kirkus Review: "In a twist on the typical May/December romance, Humphrey’s new chick-lit is a romping good time. Full of peppy dialogue and engaging characters, Humphrey’s novel is a bubbly read that stays fresh and fun. Her subtle exploration of the shifting dynamics of The Four is well-done, perfectly capturing the complexities and beauty of female friendships. Allie is a relatable heroine, foundering with insecurity yet capable of rising to meet even the toughest challenges."

Single women ridiculed

LADIES’ MOVEMENT – IT’S TIME FOR THE SINGLE LADIES TO RULE

Don’t settle – your true love exists!

You’ve heard of the women’s movement. You’ve heard of the feminist movement. Now it’s time for the LADIES’ MOVEMENT! And single women will lead the way! It has been too long that single women (especially those over 35) have been pitied and ridiculed by society. We all know the one about how a woman over 40 being more likely to be killed by a terrorist than get married (this statement started from a Newsweek article). “Sleepless in Seattle” quoted it – “It’s easier to be killed by a terrorist than it is to find a husband over the age of 40!”

“You know what I say?” says Lindsley Lowell, author of MY KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR IS COMING…HE’S JUST STUCK IN TRAFFIC (Amazon). “SCREW THAT. I am living proof that you can find your true love after society’s “dreadline” and he can be the man of your dreams. You do not have to settle.” Burn those self-help books that tell you that you are the problem.

Can a single woman in today's world find their Knight in shining armor? Talk about a hot topic! This is one debate that women spend hours discussing. Here to lend an irreverent perspective and inspiration for single women is Lindsley Lowell. Watch her latest TV segments to see what she has to say: WWW.LADIESINTHEPINK.COM

Lindsley advises: Do not settle. Do not let others put you down. Do not think you are crazy. Do not throw in the towel and start crocheting outfits for your cat. There IS hope. Let me be your beacon of hope, your wing woman, your leader in the fight to find your knight in shining armor. Yes, Virginia, he does exist. He just might be stuck in traffic.  

“MY KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR IS COMING…HE’S JUST STUCK IN TRAFFIC” details Lindsley’s quest for true love and shows that with humor, honesty and some guts, plus letting your heart lead the way, you can find the love of your life. With crazy (all true) stories of dating in L.A. and New York (and a stint in Germany), Lindsley helps you understand that you are not alone in your love battle. Need online dating advice? She’s got plenty! Need to know about dating a married man? Lindsley will give you the scoop. The book is ballsy, sarcastic, in-your-face honest, and it’s about time!

Yes! You do know who you want to marry!

In the video below, Alan Cohen talks about the “Guru in You”.

He states, “I would say that there is something inside you and everyone that knows:

   

…and any question you can ask me and anyone who is a self-help teacher; if you sat with it long enough you could get the answer yourself.” Alan explains the two types of guru’s with a neat little story… and more!

 

Right now, I have two books by Alan Cohen on the go. I also listen to him on his radio show called Get Real on Hay House Radio. When I was a teenager I pestered my parents about being in the middle of reading five books at a time (and they still do) and low and behold, guess who is just like that too? I have been that way for many years actually and I understand the behaviour. I chalk it up to being a mix of ADD and having varied interests all at the same time.

Who am I in the mood for today?   

   His next show on Hay House Radio is tomorrow - Feb 13, 2014.

Description:  Finding True Love

Are you in love? Would you like to be?

 Alan shines light on the meaning and importance of rising in love rather than falling in love —first with yourself, and then drawing to you partnerships of all kinds that ennoble you and make your life better.

Live coaching on relationships.
