It is finally out, the book I have been promising you for two years now. I know you are going to love it.
 

I would appreciate it very much if you would alert all your friends and post on your websites and newsletters, magasines and contact lists, friends, neighbours, colleagues at work, church groups, reading circles etc. This book was a long time in coming but I am so happy that it is finally out.
 
Thank you all my dear friends.

Book Description:  
 
 
Carissa Forbes, a young Black girl of seventeen, leaves her beloved family in rural Nova Scotia to make a life for herself in the Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Much befalls this young girl as she tries to adapt to big city life.  She meets and falls in love with a French Canadian man and is faced with an awful truth at the end of their relationship that changes her life forever.
 
Carissa has an extraordinary ability to communicate with angels.  In all of this, Carissa maintains contact with the spirit world even when she ignores the warnings.  Imaginary friends, dreams, fortune tellers and special numbers all play an integral part of this woman's life until the end of her journey.
 
Once her daughter marries and creates a life for herself, Carissa is finally at peace.  Her angels have come through for her and she is finally happy.

Book Review:
 

Angels Watching Over Me

by: Carol Roach

 

    In this wonderful work by gifted author Carol Roach we meet a very special girl named Carissa.

Carissa life has been anything but easy.  She has known the scorn of poverty; the battle of rejection, the sorrow of death.  However, Carissa has a quality that hinges almost on the supernatural; her faith and assurance in a God who is more than enough.

We are taken through the life of Carissa from her youth in a small rural community and her family to her final victory as a woman who never compromised despite the hardships such decisions would bring. Her life stood as a testimony.

This is a deep heartfelt read; one that shows the strength and courage of the human spirit despite at times cruel circumstances and unfair situations.  The author definitely draws you into the very heart of Carissa merging you with the fight and strength that she possesses during her entire life. Her unselfish love is the main attribute that shone out to me and one that I think author Carol Roach did an exceptional job at portraying.

If you want to read a story of the heart, this one is for you. A compelling story of a woman, a time and a future where one can actually say, 'everything turned out all right."

It might have happened much later than we as the reader may have wanted, but perhaps that is exactly how life for most of us plays out.

Well done Ms. Roach!

Shirley Johnson

How wonderful, Carol. I hope you get rich and famous and we can all say I knew her when. OK, you probably were already rich and famous, and I just made a clueless oaf out of myself. Ah, well, that is my special talent. Seriously though, my brother runs a college book store, and I'll tell him about it. Good luck.

Chris will be leaving Saturday to go back to Iraq. But I have my son and my newest addition to our family, Rusty to keep me company. Here is a picture of Rusty. He is a miniature dachshund

Hi Carol, this is fantastic news for you! Not your first but your second. What an accomplishment this is. I dont' know if this is the type of book I would like to read for myself as I dont' enjoy reading about angels or fortune tellers or anything like that. I will check it out and you never know I just might read it.
Congratulations

thanks you chris, julie, magi, ray and gracie and deb, I hope I haven't missed anybody.

I thank you all, we writers just get a small proportion of the sale of the book, most goes back to the publisher, for printing cost and a profit for them too.

So every book sale helps.

A big Congats Carol!! The book sounds good. I checked it out on Lulu and even though I haven't read it, I did a review based on the fact that I liked the synopsis and that I enjoyed reading your first book. I also let people who read reviews on Lulu know that they can Google your name-Carol Roach and it will bring up your articles on the Gather site.

Also hun are you a member of BzzAgent.com Maybe you can see about them spreading the word about your book to people, especially since now they have three divisions: the United States, Canada, and Now the UK.
