My story is completely different. If you want a story dealing with good angels/forbidden love, I wish you would check out my book. I'd like to change your attitude about angels.

Yes, you read right. While the protagonist is not the brightest tool, she is so innocent and that innocence shines through the page and made me smile. I really don't much care for angel books that harbor so much darkness. I mean, angels are supposed to be creatures of light, right? Bright. <--Okay, I couldn't resist. I should go write some silly children's poetry. =) Crystal Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912469552483168148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5273270228005303883.post-44873488759559728042013-10-23T09:41:08.848-07:002013-10-23T09:41:08.848-07:00If you check it out, I hope you enjoy it!If you check it out, I hope you enjoy it!Meradeth Houstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06741790047121063893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5273270228005303883.post-56292065918768957982013-10-23T09:40:43.368-07:002013-10-23T09:40:43.368-07:00It is a pretty cover, isn't it?
