5.0 out of 5 stars Warm and funny!, March 23, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Heaven Sent (Paperback)

This was the first Judi McCoy book I have read. And I absolutely loved it. Eloise is an guiding angel who has 'pinkslipped' too many souls. She finds herself on earth as a mortal until she has learned some life lessons. As a kindergarten teacher, she meets a widower with an adorable little girl, Phoebe (her mother was one of Eloises souls...). Although it is obvious that Eloise is going to end up with the lovable widower, the story has some very original ideas and lots of humor! I will surely order her other books.

Get ready to cuddle up to this warm story by Judi McCoy. Suffering the loss of his wife, Nathan Baxter must concentrate now on his adorable child, Phoebe. Never counting on finding love again he's taken aback & confused by Phoebe's teacher, Miss Starr. When you begin reading you will not put it down. What kind of creature is captivating the detective? There is mystery plus all the loving, whimsical romance you'd only expect to find from a McCoy novel. The second of her Angel Trilogy, I can say her books just keep getting better.

This review is from: Heaven Sent (Paperback)

I am an avid reader of Judi McCoy's work, and this book is great. It starts out on the sweet and funny side with an angel named Eloise who is sent to earth as a human so she can experience life and perhaps be more understanding of the souls she watches over, then moves to a sexy read when she meets the man of her earthly and angelic dreams and his adorable 5 year old daughter. A second love interest makes this book more interesting than the kind where there is only one action/ interaction between a hero and heroine, especially since the romance is between an older woman/younger man.
I highly recommend this novel and can't wait for the final book in the trilogy to be released.
