          "June's strength is in her ability to make people run towards things.  She has a talent to make people look at things in themselves that they would rather not see; ask questions they might not want to ask; feel what they do not wish to feel.  Then she brings them calm by helping them to understand they can choose to be okay.  June has the gift to help heal people."

Ralph Yourie, Author & Colleague

          "This book shows us how it's possible to adapt to challenging physical circumstances by adjusting our outlook beyond the physical and taking a journey in mind, body and spirit."

          "Unexpected Grace is a very inspirational book.  The trials and tribulations that the author went through and the grace and dignity she showed before, during and after show such strength and at the same time, such vulnerability.  I could relate to many things in the book at many levels."

          "With Unexpected Grace, June offers a unique recipe for healing.  She is gentle, compassionate and yet completely honest.  Her journey begins when a difficult, but fairly routine surgery becomes a life-threatening and life-changing experience.  Along the way, the reader comes to understand that pain and strife are experiences to be shared with all of those who care for and love us.  No one should suffer alone.  Finally, she brings us to a place where we may come to understand that some battles are won through surrender rather than conquest.  I found Unexpected Grace to be a truly unexpected pleasure."

          "This book had me hooked from the first page.  As June shares her amazing journey with her readers, you can't help but feel drawn into her story.  The fact that she could find humor in what she was going through is amazing.  I found myself mentally cheering June on and celebrating each of her triumphs.  Everyone can take something positive away from this book."

          "I thought I was going to be reading a book about June's journey of healing her body and mind, but this book was so much more than one woman's story.  Many of her revelations about her life caused me to pause, put the book down, and look at parts of my life in a new light.  Whether your trials in life are physical, emotional, financial, or all of the above, Unexpected Grace will resonate with you and more likely take you on your own journey to a place of 'unexpected grace.'"

          "If you have Scoliosis, back pain or chronic pain, this book is an inspiration.  If you just want to learn about living with a tough situation, this book is an inspiration."

          "Unexpected Grace is such a beautifully written and rewarding read.  June shares a very personal story of her journey through several surgeries, the outcome of each, and the harsh realities of a debilitating condition.  I love her technique of sharing emails written in the past and reflecting on them in the present.  She demonstrates an amazing perspective and an incredible sense of humor as she confronts challenges thrown at her every step of the way.  I laughed out loud in a couple parts when the unexpected happened and she put a humorous spin on the situation, taking it all in stride.  Unexpected Grace is an inspirational page turner.  All readers will find something within the pages that will speak to them. It caused me to stop from time to time and reflect on my own life and how I handle the challenges that come my way.  I look forward to June's next book, no matter what the topic is, fiction or non-fiction."
