About

E. Shane was born to write.  Her passion for writing was ignited at an early age when her parents would take her and her twin sister to the library.  It was during one of those early library visits, E. Shane happened upon the book series.  The stories took her on a journey like none she had ever experienced and sparked her creativity.   With each turn of the page E. Shane found herself waiting with baited breath to experience each twist and turn of the characters.  The words came to life for E. Shane and crafted her love for storytelling. 

But alas, all good things must come to an end.  For E. Shane, the end was the beginning.  When she finished the series she found herself unable to find another which kept her passion burning. She combed the library and local bookstores but no book inspired her in the same way.  That was when E. Shane took pen to paper and began to write her own stories.  She would daydream for hours creating characters, scenarios, villains and victors – constantly weaving their stories through the hills and valleys of love, life, family and friends. 

In 2010, E. Shane debuted her first novel Heart Over Mind a deeply personal and tender tale about a young woman’s and young man’s journey to find, keep and let go of love.

Description

<p>FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES<br /><br />At barely nineteen, Angelica Donovan became one of the more successful winners of the T.V. show Our Next Super Model. The world assumed she was destined for a happy, fairy tale life as ‘Angel,’ the beautiful girl who was living the dream; sadly, that wasn’t to be the case. As the years passed, she flashed her million dollar smile to all her fans and fought to stay on top in a profession where you never knew who it was safe to trust while the fashion industry took big bites out of her heart and soul. And trust was a constant challenge for Angel due to the painful childhood secret she guarded as carefully as she did her heart. As a result, she never did find her true love on earth.<br /><br />When she wakes up ‘dead’ from a heart condition a month before her thirty-fifth birthday, Angel is at first relieved to find there is no death, just a change of state, like ice to water, and then she’s scared because her biggest and most important adventure is about to begin.<br /><br />Angelica is chosen to be an angel in training as a spirit guide for three souls on earth! Her assignment is to help two women to gain the courage and confidence to find, recognize and embrace the love that had eluded Angel in life. But her biggest challenge will be to save a very special little girl from the same evil experience that had poisoned Angel’s own earthly happiness and altered the course of her life.<br /><br />Will Angel be able to heal her own shattered soul in the process? And will the three souls she is guiding be able to recognize her, not as a ghostly threat, but as one of those ‘friends in high places’ we all have; the kind who often end up earning their wings.<br /><br /> </p>

<p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:12pt;">“Being an advent reader and having a list of favorite authors that I read all the time, I have to say that when I read the preface for E. Shane's new novel, Heart Over Mind, I was immediately intrigued to read more. This book was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. She is definitely on my favorite author list, among great authors such as the late E. Lynn Harris, Kimberla Lawson-Roby, Carl Weber, and a few others. E. Shane kept me wanting to read more and more, page after page. It has not only an appeal to women, but men should really sit down and read it also. E. Shane, please keep the novels coming!!!!!”<br /></span></em><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:12pt;"><span>            </span>~Nicole Mitchell</span></p><p></p> <p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:12pt;"><span>            </span></span></p><p></p> <p style="line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:12pt;">“This book was great. It was hard to put down. Normally I wouldn’t read a “chick” book but I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next.
