The Heart of an Angel
A NATIONAL BESTSELLING SERIES (OVER 225,000 COPIES SOLD!)
FROM “A PAGE TURNER, GRIPPING, INSPIRATIONAL, CAPTIVATING...” “THE CHARACTERS, WORDS, AND SPIRITUAL CONTENT ARE COMPELLING!“
The Heart of an Angel, is the seventh and final book in the award winning, best selling, Angelic Letters Series. After five decades, the family of characters which readers have lived with, cried with, prayed with, laughed with, attended their weddings and funerals, finally plays out in this epic, heart-stopping, unforgettable saga.
You will be right there with Henry as he is once again faced with the possibility of losing the love of his life. While Jenny is lying in a coma, much like his first wife Julean was, Henry struggles with the formidable task of deciding whether to terminate the child Jenny is carrying in her womb or risk delivering the baby at Jenny’s peril. He knows only too well what Jenny would want him to do, but the thought of losing Jenny again is unthinkable. The entire gamut of emotions run so high and deep it will be as if you are in the character’s skin.
Father Engelmann was assigned two tasks by his guardian angel, Zachariah during his near-death experience. His first mission upon his return, to write the love story of Henry and Jenny, is almost completed. But what about the second task that he was asked to carry out during his brief stint on the other side? What future vision was Father allowed to see on the doorsteps to heaven? What was so compelling that he quickly agreed to put off entering into his heavenly home and instead, returned to the land of the living?
Come, join us at Henry’s acreage as this breath-taking adventure of love plays itself out. The twists and turns of fate will keep you gripping the book tighter and tighter as this epic story comes to a conclusion that surprises and satisfies beyond the reader’s most wishful imaginings; an ending only angels can bring about.

This is book 7, which completes The Angelic Letters Series. Overall the series was a 3/5, it was okay and provided many heartwarming life lessons. The story between Henry and Jenny was adorable and at times I couldn’t put the books down. Unfortunately this last book, 7, was a disappointing conclusion. The first half of the book was ok with some plot, the last half I did not like. There was zero story line and so much “preachy” repetition that it was painful to read.

Way too wordy. The story could have been condensed to just a few chapters. Too bad because the overall book series was extremely captivating story. Tough finish.

I really enjoyed this 7 book series. Book 7 really concluded and tied up some loose ends. The series I think would have been more effective had it been reduced in size. When I started this set, I didn’t believe I would achieve reading these thick books let alone 7 but I really enjoyed and looked forward to following the characters lives. The only part I struggled with were some of the sermon-type chapters and some of the repetition. Editing could have been a bit tighter as well. All round a comforting and uplifting lesson book on life’s challenges with its ebbs and flows, and the importance of faith.

A fantastic end to this amazing series! Henry has to make a huge choice as to wether or not to abort his and Jenny's unborn daughter.
It was great to read the section of the book when Henry was doing his 40-day fast, so that he could draw closer to the Lord. Another great part of this story was Henry's relationship with his little girl,Hannah. I really feel like Henry did, with the part about Hannah being a gift to Henry from Jenny.
Really enjoyed this series! Also, found so interesting how the books of this series were written within the books! Really cool twist!

I liked the story line...the continuing story of Father David, Henry and Jenny and their family and friends. There were many good messages included in the story; how to live a good life, the importance of God in your life, family responsibilities and commitment.
Sometimes it maybe got a bit wordy but was a very enjoyable easy read full of inspiration.
