It'll take a heavenly wink and a couple of wannabe angels desperate to win their wings for Lucy Carson and Jamie Randolph to realize they're soul mates. A Las Vegas teacher with a proclivity for all things vintage, Lucy's dream is to have a baby. But considering her sex life is a big fat zero, that seems highly unlikely. Jamie is a tabloid journalist whose only goal in life is to return to mainstream reporting. But then his life turns topsy-turvy when the neophyte angels convince–read that bribe–him into getting involved in their hair brained scheme involving Lucy. So what have the heavenly beings dreamed up? How about a miracle called parthenogenesis–fertilization without the benefit of sperm. Far fetched–yep, but that's why it's called a miracle. Set in a Vegas that tourists rarely see, with a cast of eccentric characters–a Transylvanian hit man, a drag queen named Merry Chino Cherry, and a devil's minion who moonlights as a personal injury lawyer–this story has all the elements of a rollicking good time in Sin City.

Author · 18 books

As a "feel good" author Ann DeFee infuses humor into her romantic comedy, mystery, magic realism (where the surreal becomes reality), humor/satire and action/adventure stories. A multi-award winner, Ann has written twelve novels for Harlequin and an additional three for Bellastoria Press. She has won, or was a finalist in ten national and international book award contests. Believe in the Magic leads the way with a Reader’s Favorite Gold Medal, a Chanticleer Somerset Fiction Award winner and is now a Grand Prize Finalist in the Eric Hoffer Book Award. As a business woman, Ann is a managing-partner of Bellastoria Press LLP, an independent hybrid publishing company that specializes in shepherding authors through the book publishing process. On a personal note, Ann loves living in her stories (both writing and reading) and research. She lives in Williamsburg, VA, the epicenter of American history, a perfect place to be actively involved in a national organization that focuses on history, patriotism and genealogy. Her guilty pleasure is that she’s addicted to hot chocolate (regardless of the season) and she loves all things that glitter.
