An Angel's Touch

An Angel's Touch is touching tale of hope and Christmas miracles. Don and Cathy Angel are in devastating and fatal car crash on Christmas Eve. Meeting Archangel Gabriel, they are told that they must perform three miracles by midnight of this Christmas Eve in order to earn their wings. Don is skeptical and Cathy believes, as they are given their "list" of who they must help and what they can and cannot do back again on earth. Gabriel also explains to them about people having faith against all odds, especially during this solemn time of the year. "Little Miracles. Christmas gifts. Making something work out for people who just keep trying and believing against all odds. That is a miracle, you see. When all facts and figures suggest that something just can't happen - but it does. When faith makes something happen."The people Don and Cathy encounter and help are struggling with issues and situations that are not uncommon or difficult in our lives today. Pozzessere combines touches of humor along with sentimentality as her "angels" struggle to accomplish their mission before midnight. "Life - on Earth - only lasts so long for any man, woman, and child. It's a gift, like any other. And quite fleeting at the very best, against the spectrum of time. But there is a quality to every man's life. Life is a gift to be used to the fullest, no matter how the days are measured. Perhaps life itself is the greatest gift, but sometime it takes a miracle to make people see that."This book is easy to read and the touches of humor are quite enjoyable in the realm of performing Christmas miracles. The ending will surprise you as well as bring tears to your eyes. Christmas is a time of miracles, but it is also a time of love, as Pozzessere so eloquently shows us. This would be a great book for the entire family to read during the holiday season!

I really liked this one. The characters were very human and I felt that I knew them. They were honest and real and sweet. It was a quick read and it makes you cry and feel good about life and love at the same time.
