Kristi Harrison loved her job as a flight attendant for Worldwide Airlines until a crash killed her fiancée and her best friend. Unable to deal with survivor's guilt, she escaped to a friend's beach house in Florida were she hoped to find the one thing that had eluded her for the past six months...peace. When nightmares drove her from her bed, she sought the quiet of the moonlit beach. It was there that Scott Sanders, driven by his own midnight demons, first met her. He was living in his own hell, trying to deal with a plane crash in the jungles of Vietnam that has taken his best friend and RIO...while Scott was the pilot. They had both been kissed by the angel of death and survived. Together they learn how to forgive without forgetting and how to move forward and learn to celebrate life. Author's Note: As I have put my other books up on Kindle and other ebook formats, I have updated them to present day. But the Vietnam War was a vital element in the Angel series, so I kept these three books in that timeline...not quite historical...but not quite current either. I believe they are strong, complex stories that will remain timeless about a subject and a generation that cannot and should not be forgotten. As I wrote Kissed by an Angel, the character of Kahuna kept bugging me to give him a book of his own which became Phantom Angel. While writing that book, I realized I wasn't quite finished with the Angel series and Angel of Mercy was born. These three books sprung full-blown out of my subconscious and practically wrote themselves. I felt like I was merely a conduit for the characters who were desperate to have their voices heard.

He shouldn't have survived. . . not the crash landing in the Vietnamese jungle nor the years of backbreaking labor. But the painfully thin man with the arresting blue eyes had paid a high price for survival. The man Melora Delaney faced across a rice paddy, the man she was to bring back to America, had lost his youth and his memory. As a psychologist she couldn't restore Bo's lost years, but she could help him begin life again. Melora planned two months of intensive work with her patient. But then she came to know the man, who existence was a miracle of strength and will. When the time came ... and it would ... would she be able to let him go? _Author's Note: When I wrote KISSED BY AN ANGEL, Scott's RIO and best friend was supposed to be dead. But he spoke to me in a dream, telling me not only was he alive, but he was still lost in the jungles of Vietnam and didn't know who he was or where he was supposed to be. That created the question of what would a person do who has amnesia and doesn't remember anything of his past, including where he was, why he was there and where was he supposed to be? I came to the conclusion that he wouldn't likely try to escape if he had no idea what was on the other side of that jungle. Instead, he would be living in limbo, waiting for something or someone to help him. Before KISSED was even completed, Bo had told me his story, and I had to write it down so he would not be forgotten. I truly believe there are Americans who were...or still are...surviving, waiting for us to bring them home. And the story didn't end with Bo because Hawk then demanded to have his own book. Look for the third in the Angel series ANGEL OF MERCY, also available for Kindle. Whether you were Vietnam era or not, these stories will make you laugh and cry and understand the depths of wounds a war can cause._

What do you do when the choice you made was the wrong one? During the war, Jeff Hawkins' tenderness had been nurse Angela's sanctuary from the horrors of Vietnam, and his passion had been their salvation. But Jeff had been wounded long before a bullet brought him to the EVAC hospital. Fearless, with nothing to lose, Jeff was the kind of soldier to whom they awarded Purple Hearts . . . posthumously. Years later, when he encountered Angela again at a veterans' reunion, she could no longer pretend that the madness of war had triggered their brief, all-consuming alliance. Could they have a second chance? Or had she forfeited any claim to Jeff's love when she did the unforgivable . . . married his best friend? Not all wounds are visible . . . and not all wounds can be healed by the soft touch of a nurse's hands. But Angela knew he was worth fighting for . . . and Jeff was tired of fighting. Author's Note: This book burst full blown from a dream. I loved writing every word and had a great time picking the perfect songs to open each chapter. ASCAP wouldn't let me use the words without paying a gazillion dollars in royalties, so I chose titles that would invoke the mood and atmosphere of each chapter that followed. Angela and Hawk were such wonderful, but heart-breaking characters. He was a great hero, and she was the perfect person to help him heal. This was the final book in the ANGEL trilogy, with KISSED BY AN ANGEL and PHANTOM ANGEL preceding it. I lived with them for years, and I will truly miss having them in my daily thoughts.
