Book Description

Publication Date: January 23, 2011
"A box of tissues should be included in the purchase price of this book.... I finished THE COLOR OF HEAVEN in a matter of hours, but I've no doubt the read and the lessons imparted through Sophie's story will stay with me... probably forever. THE COLOR OF HEAVEN is an incredibly poignant and unbelievably gripping novel, deserving Romance Junkies' highest rating."
FIVE BLUE RIBBONS - Chris at Romance Junkies


A deeply emotional tale about Sophie Duncan, a successful columnist whose world falls apart after her daughter’s unexpected illness and her husband’s shocking affair. When it seems nothing else could possibly go wrong, her car skids off an icy road and plunges into a frozen lake. There, in the cold dark depths of the water, a profound and extraordinary experience unlocks the surprising secrets from Sophie’s past, and teaches her what it means to truly live...and love.

Full of surprising twists and turns and a near-death experience that will leave you breathless, this story is not to be missed.

"A gripping, emotional tale you'll want to read in one sitting." - New York Times bestselling author, Julia London

"Brilliantly poignant mainstream tale." – 4 ½ starred review, Romantic Times

A Beautiful Story January 27, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Once in awhile, a book comes along that takes your breath away and stays with you long after you've finished reading it. THE COLOR OF HEAVEN by E.V.Mitchell is such a book. This is a one-of-a-kind story that will take you back to the thrill and heartache of your first love... to the fears and challenges we all face as we go through life. Mitchell weaves a tale with characters so real that you'll feel their tragedies and victories as if they were your own. You won't want this book to end, but when it does, you'll feel as if you've just spent an unforgettable evening talking with an old friend.

Mitchell is a gifted writer who puts her heart on the page, and in turn, touches the hearts of her readers. THE COLOR OF HEAVEN is one of the best books you will read this year.

I like novels about near-death experiences, and after death scenarios, but most novels are so disappointing, either lacking in credibility, or overly religious and dogmatic in nature, preaching punishment and fear. This story has depth, credibility and insight into the practicalities of forgiveness. I won't talk about the story-line, because you just have to read this very well executed, lovely story. Actually, it is not overdone to say this story is rather brilliant. It works on you, even after you finished reading it, lingering in one's conscious mind, working a miracle of forgiveness. Even if it is "just" a story, it is very powerful. The descriptions, the conversations evoke strong, deep emotions, which trigger inner reflection and in my case, healing from the past. I would have paid a lot more money to read this book. It is a unbelievable that this book is offered at such a low price. You can not go wrong, at all, to include this book in your Kindle Collection. I look forward to reading more from this author. I am hooked! Enjoy!

A true page turner February 18, 2011

This book was great.!!! It not only kept me interested, I couldn't wait to get back to it. I got a sample of this book before I bought it. Well, once I started reading the sample I had to have it, bought it and couldn't stop reading it. I actually put aside what I had been reading because I couldn't put this one down. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. A very compelling story.

No one gets to quit. You keep fighting, every day, and sooner or later, the grief fades a little. You grow stronger, find joy again, and everything gets easier. You come out of it more equipped to handle the next wave, which will come eventually. There will always be waves. &quote;

Heres the thing about motherhood. It exhausts you and thrills you. It kicks you in the butt, and the very next second makes you feel like a superstar. Most of all, it teaches you to be selfless. &quote;
