~Voices of the Soul~
Soul Seers Novella #1
by
Rene Folsom
***
*****
~Synopsis~
Throughout her entire life, Ella has heard voices. Voices inside her
head. She’s never given much thought as to why she has this gift… or
this curse, depending on which way you look at it. It’s not until she
meets the mysterious Jonah that she begins to question her inherited
abilities as a Soul Seer.
Learning to deal with loss and love, Ella manages to live a seemingly normal life… or so she thought.
~Excerpt~
Slowly, things started to change. The night sky still shone with
brilliance as the stars twinkled overhead like crystalline tears, but
the trees and branches no longer obstructed my view. I could feel a
chill run through my body, but Jonah’s warmth next to me made it
bearable.
The stars began to multiply and were shining so bright, the sky
actually looked to be a deep midnight blue. I could even see the misty
flow of the Milky Way. Just below the swath of stars was Jupiter,
shining radiantly. The fields of stars were so brilliant and plentiful, I
could have swore we were floating through space. Nothing else around us
but the dazzling stars, like tiny little holes in the floor of heaven.
“Come on, Ella. Let’s stand up,” Jonah said as he knelt beside me with an outstretched hand.
As I stood, I somehow knew where we were. Not because Jonah told
me, but because he knew. His thoughts were not separate from mine. Our
thoughts were one, together, up at the top of Mauna Kea in Hawaii. The
snow-capped mountaintop summit is one of the most popular places in the
world to gaze at the stars.
We took several moments to take in what was quite possibly the
most dramatic and stimulating scenery I have ever experienced.
Stargazing at the heavens, I could see from Polaris to the Southern
Cross, along with all the planets and constellations I have learned to
identify over the years.
“Isn’t it breathtaking?” Jonah asked, as he held onto me tight and stared up at the starlit sky.
Looking at him, I could see the reflection of stars in his eyes,
like diamonds dripping from the universe and winking at me through this
beautiful man.

~MY REVIEW~
Ella has a very special gift. Her mother is on her death bed and needs to tell Ella of this special gift before it is too late.
Ella has heard voices through out her life, but never really knew what was taking place in her mind.
Six years after her mothers death, Ella sits in her art class distratced.......until he walks in.......Jonah Chantrey that is.
Suddenly Ella's thoughts are running rapid for this sexy hunk. He responds without saying a word aloud.
Can it be that Ella and Jonah have the same gift?
Yes they discover they are both Soul Seers.
They spend the next couple of hours walking, talking and grabbing a bite to eat. Comparing their soul seeing abilities with one another.
An instant connection is formed and Ella and Jonah make fast plans for a date.
Jonah takes Ella to a stable for a beautiful night ride on two gorgeous horses. They end up at a lake with the moons reflection bouncing off of the rippling water.
Here Ella and Jonah experiment with their soul seeing capabilites and this is where it goes beyond what we expect.........I am not a reviewer to whom of which gives the best parts away.
What happens next will leave you in shock and awe of Rene's writing talents.
Rene's imagination takes us on a captivating~mind blowing~soul shattering journey.
The love and elements of surprise will leave you breathless.
