Ethereal Authority by Grace Augustine ~ Review

There are authors that write with all of their heart and soul. Grace Augustine is one of those those authors. While reading Ethereal Authority I could tell that Grace Augustine has written her heart into yet another wonderful book. She has a unique writing voice that instantly draws me into her books.

I loved the first book in  the Diva to the Guides Trilogy and I could not wait to get my hands on the second book. 

Ethereal Authority captivated my attention from the very beginning, had me clinging to edge of my seat with suspense and worry, and held my attention until the very last awe moment at the end. 

Charisse Carrington is a strong, independent, intelligent lady that has a job she enjoys. She loves to fly and makes good use of her pilots license while helping out with Traffic Reports for a local TV station. Charisse is involved in a very dramatic situation. I don't want to spoil this for you so I'm not going to tell you the situation. I am going to tell you that she has a unique talent to be able to telepathically communicate with some people. It certainly does come in handy in her suspense filled situation. I found myself clinging to the edge of my seat and shedding a tear or two while Charisse was in great danger. 

Mark Seymour has been on desk duty since he was injured while working on a case for the police department. He has a lot of emotional damage from the injury. He lost his self confidence and locked away his feelings. 

Is there a chance that Charisse and Mark will get a second chance to try again or will the dramas they have been through be more than their relationship can withstand? 

I LOVED this story. I enjoyed the special communication, I adored Charisse's cat that has self appointed himself to care for her. The characters in this series are well written with unique talents and personalities. They have interesting stories to tell that certainly keep me entertained throughout the whole book.

This is a fairly short story that very well may be read in one setting. This is part of the Diva to the Guides Trilogy however it can be read as a stand alone. You may want to grab up the whole trilogy though because they are all awesome. 

I don't usually judge a book by it's cover, unless the story inside is just as awesome. Then I can't help myself in commenting on the cover. This lovely cover really fits the characters. 

I was given the opportunity to read and review this great story so that I may share my thoughts with you. As always it has been my great pleasure to share my thoughts with you on Ethereal Authority.

Author Bio:

Grace AugustineInternationally known author, Grace Augustine, was born in Shelby, Montana and grew up in Cut Bank, Montana (dubbed as The Coldest Spot in the Nation). Her work career has taken her from title and abstracting to administrative assistant church work to co-owning a small town weekly newspaper to her current profession as a floral designer.

Grace thinks of herself as a "Jill" of most trades and is not afraid to learn new things. "If you can't learn something new each day, there's something wrong," she says.

The ideas for her Acorn Hills series stem from her growing up years as well as the issues she has had to overcome along the way. "I've developed a new romance category...for the over 50 crowd...I'm calling it the salt and pepper genre. My books deal with real life issues, overcoming adversity, maintaining a positive outlook, and so much more. Just because we are 50 yrs old or older doesn't mean that life stops. We all still want attention and affection and adventure! We want to experience all life has to offer. We use our age as wisdom to share with those around us. We are sexual,sensual, and sensible," Grace explains. 

Augustine was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in July of 2003. Her thoughts on that "It may slow me down, but if I can at all do it, I will. Sitting and feeling sorry for yourself isn't the answer...living your life with an open, joy-filled heart is."
