I'm so thrilled that I'LL BE SEEING YOU, book 1 in the Twice in a Lifetime series releases today! Yay! This release feels like a very long time coming for me. I began writing this story several years ago. And then I got stuck, not knowing which way to go with the plot, so I set it aside for a long time while I worked on other writing projects. Eventually, I went back to this story, but I thought "What if I turned this story into a series?" And the Twice in a Lifetime series was born!
Blurb:
My name is Gabriel Daniels, and the first thing you need to know about me is that I’m dead.
I don’t say that lightly. I didn’t wake up enlightened or at peace. I woke up suspended between everything I loved and everything I lost.
The second thing you need to know is that I’m an apprentice angel. At least, that’s what Thomas tells me. Thomas is a senior angel, and I know he’s real because I’ve seen his wings—vast and luminous and unmistakably not of the Earthly plain. He’s the one showing me how things work up here. Or near here. Heaven itself is agonizingly close, close enough to feel, but Thomas says I don’t belong there yet. Not until I earn it.
And this is where things get… unreal.
According to the Heavenly Council, the only way I can earn my wings is by giving three mortals a second chance at love. Thomas and I will take them back to the time they made the choice that shattered their hearts. My task is simple in theory and terrifying in practice: I have to convince them to choose differently this time.
To trust.
To stay.
To love.
Our first client is Frank Brennan, a World War II veteran. In 1944, in Plymouth, England, Frank fell deeply in love with Claire Cartwright. But when he found her in the arms of another man, he walked away without listening—without believing her when she swore things weren’t what they seemed. Now it’s my job to help Frank find the courage to trust her love again.
I can’t fail. I need to get into Heaven.
Thomas has promised that once I become a full-fledged angel, I’ll be allowed to watch over my mother and my brother back on Earth. They need me. With their mental health struggles, the world is often too much for them, and I’ve spent my entire life trying to protect them.
Even death hasn’t changed that.
And maybe—if I’m lucky—I’ll be allowed to watch over Sloane, too.
She was the love of my mortal life. Even though she said goodbye, even though I never told her what I should have, I never stopped loving her. Not for a single moment. That regret followed me into death.
What I didn’t expect was that earning Heaven would require me to relive my own failures. Thomas never mentioned the part where I’d be dragged back through every mistake, every moment where fear or doubt cost me something precious. He claims understanding myself is vital if I want to be allowed into Heaven.
But the more he shows me my relationship with Sloane, the clearer it becomes: it wasn’t fate that ruined us. It was my inability to trust.
Like I said, I can’t fail.
But Frank is stubborn, wounded, and carrying decades of pain. Before either of us can get what we want—before either of us can find peace—he’s going to have to confront the past he’s been running from.
And so am I.
