Book Review ~ Fall from Grace (Resurrection Book 4) by Elizabeth Davies

Fall from Grace

(Resurrection Book 4)

by Elizabeth Davies

Eternal life is far too long when the man you love doesn’t love you.

Grace has been resurrected. She’s a vampire, an apex predator who will live for millennia. But that’s the problem; she’s no different to any other vampire. The one thing which fascinated Roman – her ability to time-travel – died when Grace did.

As Roman becomes more distant and preoccupied, Grace seeks something or someone to ease her loneliness.

In this exciting installment, Grace has been resurrected and attempting to adjust to her new life and everything that comes with being a vampire.  Everything is new to her, from finding her next ‘meal’, to coming to grips that she will live for a very long time.  All that would be great, but the one person who she thought would be there to guide her through it all, Roman, has become quite distant and immersed in his work and spending a lot of time alongside his sexy fellow scientist.  Believing that Roman has abandoned her for someone new, Grace seeks out other activities and companionship to ease her loneliness and bitterness at Roman’s apparent betrayal.  In addition to the couple trying to figure things out and work on their communication skills, The Brotherhood is hard on their heels and the world is about to face the deadliest pandemic it has ever witnessed.

Fall from Grace is another spectacular installment of the Resurrection series by Elizabeth Davies.  I have followed this series from the start, and each book becomes better and better.  The story flowed smoothly and seamlessly and kept me intrigued throughout.  It truly was phenomenal – from the exceptional writing to how everything just seemed to fit together perfectly.  The main characters are all well-developed and the plot was so intriguing that I couldn’t for the life of me put the book down until the end.  Fall from Grace is definitely not a standalone and the reader will benefit from reading the previous novels to understand exactly how all the pieces fit together.  I really hope that there is another book in the works, because this reader needs more of Grace and Roman!

Overall, this series is one of my all-time favorites as it is the perfect combination for romance, paranormal, and suspense.  This series is definitely a must read and one that I highly recommend to any paranormal romance fan.  5 well deserving stars for Fall from Grace!

Let me begin by saying that the blurb for this book does not do it justice – at all.  Going into this book, I thought it was going to be a typical ghost love story.  You know the one – pretty ghost falls head over heels for a handsome young gentleman and they find a way to make it work and they were blissfully happy.  This was so not the case with The Medium Path.  Yes, there is a love story, but it also has so much more.  There is also a mystery that begs to be solved and with this premise the reader gets to embark on a ‘spiritual’ journey that will have you on the edge of your seat as the living and the dead come together to put an end to a wretched, vile, and evil woman.

Elizabeth Davies is not a new author for me, (in fact her Resurrection trilogy is practically amazing!), and when she provided this book to me to review, I was beyond thrilled.  Ms. Davies has a way a bringing her characters to life and the reader can connect with them and this book was no exception. This book is beautifully written with just enough details for the reader to visualize everything that is going on. In my opinion, this is one of the most interesting paranormal plots that I have read in while.

Once I started The Medium Path, it was impossible for me to put it down and I found myself getting lost in the story.  It is very captivating and written in a way to draw the reader into a world we can only imagine.  The last part of the book was very tense and I found myself holding my breath through several scenes.  The ending was unexpected but very satisfying – I guess in a way you can say that it does end in a HEA.  With mystery, suspense, paranormal, and ghosts, this book as it all and is a must read for any paranormal fans, especially those who love ghost stories.

Book Review ~ The Spirit Guide by Elizabeth Davies

The Spirit Guide

by Elizabeth Davies

Synopsis

Seren has an unusual gift – she sees spirits, the shades of the dead.

Terrified of being accused of witchcraft, a very real possibility in twelfth century Britain, she keeps her secret close, not even confiding in her husband.

But when she gives her heart and soul to a man who guides spirits in the world beyond the living, she risks her secret and her life for their love.

My Thoughts

I have been a fan of Elizabeth Davies ever since I read her Resurrection Trilogy, so when she asked me if I would be interested in reviewing her newest book, The Spirit Guide, I was beyond excited!  I am so glad that I did read it because it is simply amazing!

Seren has an awesome gift, she can see spirits.  However, her gift is not so awesome in the twelfth century where some would see that as witchcraft.  Not so good for Seren.  She has guarded her secret forever, only slipping every now and then.  

When it comes time for marriage, she has been betrothed to Rolf.  Although Rolf is good looking and comes from a good family line, Seren really has no desire for marriage.  The desire is even less when she meets George.  George is everything that a women desires. The only problem is, well, George is a spirit guide - no longer living - one that Seren can actually touch.  One would think this would be a problem, but with love, anything is possible!

Of course, every great story has to have a villain, and this story is no exception.  Vaughn is Seren's father-in-law and he is dabbling in the dark spirit realm.  Seren may have bitten off more than she could chew when she tries to solve the mystery of what Vaughn's intentions really are - and let me tell you, he is up to no good.

Seren's story is at times heartbreaking due to how women were treated back in that time.  At times, I wanted to kill Rolf (along with some other characters)  because how cruel and heartless he had become.  The fact that men back in that time thought nothing of taking a mistress while the wife was expected to just accept it is beyond appalling.  I loved it though when Seren was accused of sleeping with another man, and she responded that she had never slept with another 'living' man.  Way to go Seren - twist those words to work in your favor!

With an ending I did not see coming, Rolf and his mistress redeemed themselves by giving Seren and George a 'gift' and I have forgiven them (kind of) for the crap that they put Seren through.

This spectacular story drew me in with its descriptive words and characters I found myself really caring for.  This period in time has always fascinated me, and Ms. Davies really brought it to life within the pages.  

Ms. Davies ability of combining history, paranormal aspects and romance in just the right way really drew me into this beautiful story.  The story flowed effortlessly and kept me engrossed throughout.  The Spirit Guide is a book that I would recommend and is definitely worth reading. 

My rating:  5 out of 5 stars
