Book Description

Lea Sovran created the word she'alahn, meaning peace, harmony, strength, courage, and compassion in the Life Force. It is a greeting, a farewell, and the "So be it" and "Amen" at the end of meditations. She'alahn, Volume One is based on the real experiences of women. The first section, The Book of Woman, presents imagined letters shared among women across several decades that include strategies for solving common problems women face. The Book of Woman>/i> helps you believe that virtually anything may be possible for you and that you are not alone in your concerns. You are capable of changing the world and of working miracles. The second section, Th e Doctrine of the Faith of the Life Force, offers women spiritual support without male gods, without being treated as second-class citizens, and without indebtedness to "Higher Powers"-a faith for responsible, concerned women. The primary injunction of this faith asks us to be more accountable for our actions so we have greater power to heal the Earth. She'alahn, Volume One aims to uplift and encourage women to share ideas with other women, debate them, and begin changing the world for the better.

If you have not read books one through three yet, please look for Kismet, Catalyst, and Solstice available anywhere e-books are sold! THE WAR is just beginning. Although Madison successfully saved Mathias and her father, Silas escaped. Overcome with conflict between reuniting with Mathias and the relationship she inadvertently built with Alan, Madison retreats into her own thoughts. Should she make a life with the white-haired boy she worked so hard to save? Or with the one who's been capturing her heart? If that isn't bad enough, she also feels lost on how to connect with a father she’s never known. Madison’s relationship struggles are cut short when she and her allies receive a phone call. Just hours after Silas stole Mathias’s gift and shimmered away, Haven has been attacked. There are casualties. But could he have gotten all the way to America so quickly? As tensions rise on all fronts, one thing is clear – they may have won a battle, but the War has just begun.
