Shadows of Serenity a Women Fiction Paranormal Mystery eBook Marsha A Moore

Marsha Moore had taken her knowledge and passion for yoga and woven it into a paranormal story about dangerous otherworldly obsession and the power of teamwork and positive thinking. The story goes into detail about the lives of many of the yoga teachers-in-training, and I felt that reinforced the theme that individuals working together for the greater good make a strong whole. The main character, Joyce, is struggling with starting her own yoga studio and the negative energy that seems to block her every step of the way. Within that is a conflict that we all face at some point or another when we start something new or tap into our own creativity: the struggle to believe in ourselves. I enjoyed following the journey of these characters, and the ghost story has some downright creepy moments...in a good way! Overall it was a book that I looked forward to picking up again whenever I had a chance to read!

Shadows of Serenity a Women Fiction Paranormal Mystery eBook Marsha A Moore Reviews

I absolutely love this book. It has a great plot and a nice flow to it all. I like how Marsha mixes it up to show it from the perspective of some of the major characters, which makes it an even better read. She is well versed and has a great style of writing. She slowly starts off and keeps building up the story line until the very end when she finds a great way of solving it all.
The main characters are all very loveable and you can't but help feeling with them. It is truly a nice mix of people she choose for this. It made me want to join their group and learn more about yoga. I have never taken a yoga class but reading this, really makes me consider it. It was a little odd, but just reading about their relaxation and mediation methods, made me calmer reading it all, now that is true impact.

Thanks for sharing this. This is truly a gem and I am glad I got to read this.

I have received this book from the author for an honest review.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review from Lovers of Paranormal group on Goodreads.
From the beginning it was an interesting read, while different from most other paranormal reads I have experienced.

Joyce has purchased a large property, surrounded by woodlands, with dreams of running her own yoga studio.
She has studied and worked and saved and planned for this dream for many years. As with any restoration or construction project, there are set backs and unexpected obstacles, but things that were happening did not seem to have any reasonable explanations.
The time comes for Joyce to welcome a class of YTT students, a group dedicated to becoming yoga instructors.
This group is made up of students of various experiences who do not know each other. The story develops about their growth as individuals as well as learning how to support each other.

At first, the students are not aware of the paranormal activity on the property. As their yoga skills improve, so do their sensitivities. Joyce and her partner Eric also do some old school research to discover physical evils that have taken place on the property. They narrow it down to a murder and learn that the man who was responsible also isolated his wife from any other living beings. This man recently was released from a mental health institution.
Oh - and I will mention a group of Granny ghost hunters, too.

While the story unfolds, we are treated to an education in beginning yoga terms and practices.
We learn some of the beliefs that come with the practice.

This is not a simple story of busting one ghost.
“Something is not right. And I don’t intend to let whatever negative energy is here to drive off, or worse yet, harm my students of my studio.”

Joyce Runsey just bought a beautiful Victorian home in the woods, with a converted yoga studio, she named Serenity Woods Yoga. It is a great place for her to live, and teach her students the ages-old yogic path, so that they can become teachers themselves.

Almost immediately, bad energy surrounds the new construction, and a creepy message is scrawled on one of the boards. Her studio, although well meaning, is bathed in negativity.

Joyce learns that her Victorian is inhabited by a restless spirit who once lived there and wants no part in her or her teachings. How is Joyce to make sure her students reach personal growth when a ghost is harassing them? How is she to deliver the spirit from it’s imprisonment?

Before Joyce knows it, a Swami blesses her residence, and a paranormal investigative team named the Granny Ghoulies inspect her home. Joyce is willing to try anything to break the cycle of darkness, and the race is on… before it is too late and everyone is affected by the dark spirit.

I loved the plot for Shadows of Serenity. The juxtaposition of a serene, peaceful yoga studio, set up against the mystery and dark energy of the paranormal, made for a fascinating read! I can honestly say this was one of the most unique stories I have read to date.

I enjoyed Marsha A. Moore’s ability to build a world around her characters. Her writing style made the characters leap up from the pages. When she described the musky exotic scent emanating from the yoga studio, I felt as if I was there, practicing yoga and inhaling incense with the other students.

I learned a lot about yoga from Shadows Of Serenity, and it did pique my interest. The following is some of the yoga vocabulary I learned

Asana The art of sitting still.

Purvadista Award of destiny.

Ahimsa The principle of non-violence toward all living beings.

Eight Limbs of Yoga Guidelines on how to live a meaningful and purposeful life.

Dirgha Breath A basic breathing exercise that is calming and grounding. Also called “three part breath”.

Metta Empathy. An attitude of friendliness.

In my personal opinion, lovers of the paranormal, chick lit, and/or books that are yoga themed would love Shadows of Serenity! Treat yourself to a copy today!

I was provided with a complimentary copy by the Author, in exchange for a fair, honest, and thoughtful book review.
