ANGEL OF TREVI

Author: Elizabeth Owen ISBN: 1601540760 7/2007 PARANORMAL Publisher: WILD ROSE PRESS

Almost two years after his wife dies in a car accident, J.T. Cavanaugh hangs on to their old life and the only kind of love he deems possible-the true, everlasting kind he and Kelly shared. Kelly appears to her husband in spirit form, convincing J.T. he needs to move on with his own life and in order to do that, he needs to return to the house they built together overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. Struggling with his grief, J.T. goes back to the waterfront town to face Jeff Carpenter, the teenager whose car hit Kelly's. As man and boy begin to heal, guilt suddenly overpowers J.T. when he finds himself attracted to Jeff Carpenter's widowed mother, Nancy

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

Amazing! This is a haunting story of a man, J.T., who has lost his wife in a traumatic incident. It has been two years since Kelly's death and J.T. has left his old life and any reminder of Kelly behind. But, J.T. is seeing his dead wife. Is he hallucinating, or is Kelly really trying to tell him something?

J.T. reluctantly goes back to his old life, facing old ghosts and new problems. When he returns to his former life, he is hoping that he will finally be able to gain closure of Kelly's death and move on with his life. He becomes friends with a small child and is drawn to the child's mother, Nancy. Can J.T. finally find a means to an end and move on with his life?

Grab a box of tissues before reading ANGEL OF TREVI because it is heart wrenching. This tale is a brilliant story of love and loss and how grief can affect someone. The story made me cry and I found myself relating to J.T.'s situation. The plot is passionate and allows the reader to feel J.T.'s emotions. Owen delivers an amazing tale of paranormal romance.
