ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

 

To Rory Tacchi—for breaking my heart and shoving me back on the right track. Because of you, I wrote this book and I thank you—now—from the bottom of my heart! Every cloud has a silver lining.

 

 

I see ye visibly, and now believe
That he, the Supreme Good, to whom all things ill
Are but as slavish officers of vengeance,
Would send a glistering guardian, if need were
To keep my life and honor unassailed.
Was I deceived, or did a sable cloud
Turn forth her silver lining on the night?
John Milton

Special Friends

Unwavering gratitude to all my fabulous friends who have spent hours upon hours listening to me (whether they wanted to or not) tell endless stories about my fantasy family. Juliette, Grace and a world packed with an assortment of magical and mystical creatures. You all know who you all are, and I thank you: Trisha Dowling, Trish Thomson, Debstar Bassett, Alex Thomson, and John Oxton.

I would like to say a very special thanks to Tracey (Sister of the heart) and Michael (Mcgoo) who sat with me around the patio table discussing words, storylines, pizza, tequila shots and the dwindling number of bees on planet earth.

Angela for purchasing my very first eBook. I would love to meet you one day and personally say thank you.

My sister, Sue McGuinness (I owe you big-time) for all your re-reads. Your ongoing encouragement and for loving the story—and me!

My sister, Fay Maddison. Thank you for your words of support from across the vast ocean that separates.

To all my online Goodreads friends. Especially fellow YA Author Jayde Scott. I am grateful for your lovely words and support. Thank You.

This is so totally different from anything I’ve read recently and I have to say… WOW. Patti Roberts is a truly remarkable writer. The way she weaves her tales among the story is extraordinary. I can honestly say I was in awe of the way she managed to do it. I’d love to have that talent. My only criticism is that I NEED to know what happens next!! I can’t wait for book two!

After reading dozens of Angel based books, I cannot recall a time when I said, hey—I like this. Well, surprisingly, I loved this. This book is up there on my list of favorites. First of all, the writing was excellent; I was literally flabbergasted and felt inferior in anything I’ve ever written.

Are there any new Authors that have grasped your interest and why?  Yes, Patti Roberts. Paradox is truly a work of art and I can’t wait to read more.

Patti Roberts had introduced me to a fascinating world of angels

Roberts knows how to spin a good tale that appeals to our deepest emotions and makes us wonder what may be hidden behind the portal to our world.

I am a sap for anything that brings me to tears...and this book did just that. Death of a loved one is always a difficult situation to address and Patti does it so beautifully.
