Description from the publisher:
After
an eye-opening congressional hearing, former corporate shark Jack Morgan
redirects his ill-gotten gains toward charity work. However, his attempts to bring holiday cheer
to a Bolivian village meet with one disaster after another: canceled flights,
crumbling luggage, implacable customs officials. His plans disintegrate further when he runs
into a sexy tourist with . . . wings?
As
Jack's guardian angel, Sarah Phimm has her work cut out for her. When his latest volunteer mission risks his
life, she's forced to reveal herself to him—but only in part. She can't risk him knowing the truth. He's everything her immortal heart desires,
but can never have. She soon discovers
that keeping him safe amidst death bridges and tumbling telephone poles is far
easier than guarding her heart.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jack Morgan has left the corporate
world. After enduring a congressional
hearing that decided he hadn’t broken any actual laws, but opened his eyes to
his own moral guilt in pursuit of his fortune, he is now expending his energies
in the greater good of his fellow man.
On a trip to Bolivia, he has run into one setback after another,
culminating into an invisible wall that knocks him on his butt. Sarah Phimm has made a mistake when not
watching where she was walking, and now Jack has seen her. This violates her contract as his guardian
angel. She has watched over him since
his birth, but now that he has seen her, neither can deny the irresistible pull
of true love. Can she continue to watch
over him now that he knows who and what she is?
What will her bosses say?
This is the second book in the
Nether-Netherland series. It does stand
alone, but it would help you understand her bosses’ motivations if you have
read CHARMED.
At Christmas time, we often hear
“peace on earth and goodwill towards men.”
Jack has accepted his three ghosts, in the form of the congressional
hearings, and is determined to put his new found goodwill to work where it will
matter to those with little. He
continues to learn lessons of humility and patience. Don’t we all wish to be continually growing
and improving our impact on our community?
This is a feel-good, funny, sweet
story of true love and heartfelt philanthropy.
I absolutely loved this story of Christmas, miracles, and the desire for
goodwill among all men. I was laughing
out loud at some parts, okay a lot of laughing, and followed by moments of
“awwww.” Yep, my family has to put up
with my emotions when I’m reading and this story was filled with the best
emotions. Thank you, Ms. Ridley, for
sharing!
