Excerpt from the Book

The man sat in the chair Gabriel had just vacated. “My name is Thomas, and this place is Heaven.” He pointed to the meadow outside the open door. “More specifically, the castle on the other side of the meadow is Heaven. This is a waiting room.”

Gabriel stared at him. This had to be a joke. Someone was really trying to put one over on him. Must be the guys in the AI department. Who else could pull off something as elaborate as this?

“Okay, where are we really? When is everybody going to pop out of the woodwork and yell ‘Surprise!’?”

Thomas folded his hands in his lap. “We’re in Heaven. Really.”

Impossible. He had to be in a hospital. Panic struck with his next thought. What if he was in a mental institution? Nothing scared him more than going down the same road his mother and brother had travelled.

“You don’t have to worry, Gabriel. You’re not in a hospital and you’re not in a mental institution. Your mental faculties are working fine. Better than fine, now that you’re here.”

Gabriel stepped back. “How did you know my name? How did you know what I was thinking?”

Thomas lifted one shoulder in an elegant shrug. He stood, and feathered wings, blazingly white and large enough for the tips to touch the ceiling, unfurled from his back and spread wide. “Because I’m an angel. When you become an angel, you’ll be able to read thoughts, too. And much more.”

Gina Rae Mitchell

"It’s a powerful, sometimes heartbreaking journey that shows how a lack of trust can damage relationships. The characters feel real, each on their own emotional path, which makes their stories truly resonate. I would highly recommend this book."

di115

"Author Jana Richards ability to infuse compelling, impactful emotions into her characters’ actions leaves the rest of the field in the dust...This is a lovely trip back in time—one that brought more than one smile. Well done!!
Based on a scale of 1-5, I’ll Be Seeing You merits a 6."

Veronica Lynch

"I am so impressed by the book. The most important thing that I learned from the book is that it doesn't matter how much you love your partner if you can't trust him/her...I am sooo excited to read the second book of the series. so I give 5 stars to the book and I highly recommend the book to all romantic novel fans and others as well."

Bhavsar Mamta

"This was a super compelling story with great characters and an intriguing premise. I'll definitely be reading the other two installments."

Reda

"Expect some emotional moments in this novel. It is a modern twist on It’s a Wonderful Life with time travel thrown in as well. What an awesome first book in this series, and I can’t wait to read the next one!"

Diane Richmond

"This book was truly unique. It could easily have been fluffy and feel good, but instead was gritty and at times uncomfortable. The characters seemed stubbornly mired in the mistakes they made and had a hard time seeing that sometimes things appear very differently from actual reality...I enjoyed the story and will read the other books in the series as soon as I can."

Marianne

"I’ll Be Seeing You is a fantastic introduction to what promises to be an amazing new series, and I am excited to delve into the next chapter of Gabriel’s journey to find out who will be the next person on his list. I look forward to witnessing how Gabriel's story unfolds and his quest to earn his wings progresses.

I found Gabriel’s initial tale, I’ll Be Seeing You, in the Twice in a Lifetime series to be thoroughly enjoyable, and I strongly urge all romance enthusiasts to give it a chance by picking up a copy today."

About the Book

When apprentice angel Gabriel takes Frank back in time for a second chance at love, they both learn lessons about trust.

Apprentice angel Gabriel Daniel’s first assignment in his quest to become a full-fledged angel is to give WW2 veteran, Frank Brennan, a second chance at love. With help from his mentor, senior angel Thomas, Gabriel takes Frank back to 1944 to Plymouth, England. There, Frank made his biggest mistake with love. His first time in 1944, Frank fell in love with Claire Cartwright, but when he found her kissing another man, he ended their relationship, despite Claire’s insistence that things weren’t as they appeared. This time around, Gabriel’s task is to convince Frank to trust in Claire’s love and fidelity, despite the evidence against her.

At the same time, Thomas takes Gabriel on a journey through his relationship with Sloane, the love of his mortal life. For the first time, Gabriel sees how his jealousy and distrust tainted their love.

Unless Gabriel persuades Frank to trust Claire, his goal of becoming a citizen of Heaven is doomed, along with his desire to watch over his mother and brother back on Earth. Frank has a complicated history that Gabriel must help him confront before either of them gets what they need.
