"An optimistic look at the magic of life." --- KIRKUS REVIEWS ---------- Marsha Roberts was never afraid to be bold because she had a secret. She knew if she stumbled, angels would catch her. She had a connection to God that seemed almost magical. For decades, angels and miracles had worked for her better than a credit card with no limit. All of that changed without warning. They called it The Recession of 2008, but like millions of other people, it was in-your-face personal to Marsha. She was on the verge of losing everything. But worst of all, in the frantic pursuit to keep her head above water, she felt her sense of self, her own personal magic, slip away. If she was going to get her family through this crisis, she was going to have to become the sassy, mutinous gal she had once been - the one who believed in miracles. And the only way to do that was to solve the profound mystery of how God had helped her beat practically impossible odds time and again. There were clues in the oddest places: in a tomato plant and a Barbie doll, in an ICU and a frozen windshield, in the Alaskan sun and a Mediterranean piazza. Even in her dog Smokey. She had to discover the key to what it all meant so she could find her way back. Back to that magical, powerful and spiritual connection. Everything she had fought for and believed in was at stake. Marsha's style of writing makes you feel as if you're with a trusted friend, sharing coffee and life lessons. This is a book that belongs on your nightstand.
