How Far is Heaven is a novel I wrote several years ago in between working. It came to me one night in a dream. It kept repeating in a dream nightly until I began to write it down. This is a paranormal/romance/mystery that will capture your heart! Keep the tissues close by.
One thing that all parents are frightened about is anything happening to their children. It was difficult to write this story since I was constantly putting myself in the position of the mother. I poured my feelings into it because I knew how I would feel. Tears were shed during and after this was completed. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. It may make you a believer of angels and help from on high.
This book is also available on Barnes & Noble.
Blurb:
Parker and Priscilla Wilfork are happily married with two children. Life seemed perfect and peaceful until Parker goes on a business trip and does not return. Priscilla finds her world turned upside down when she searches for answers to how and why Parker disappeared.
One night Priscilla has a dream that Parker is an angel. Does this mean that Parker is now dead? After two years and no sign of Parker except in her dreams, Priscilla makes the decision to tell her children that their father has gone to Heaven.
Priscilla tries to get their lives back together until one day Deanna disappears too. Now Priscilla must go on a quest to find her daughter before it’s too late. She fears her daughter’s disappearance might be connected in some way to her husband’s. Can Priscilla go on with her life if she loses Deanna too?
With the help of a handsome police Sergeant, Blake Furelli, they work together to try to find Deanna and solve the mystery behind Parker’s disappearance. During this trying time, Blake, who suffered a loss of his own, feels drawn to the ethereal beauty of Priscilla.
I recently received a lovely review from DG Kaye that put me on Cloud 9! Thank you, Debby, and all those readers who have read and reviewed this book or any of my other books. Your reviews are appreciated and needed!

Lorraine Price 5.0 out of 5 star Stunning Portrayal of a Father’s Love and Protection For His Child Even After Death June 14, 2016 Format: Kindle Edition I absolutely loved this story! I even read it twice. It started with a hook and kept me intrigued the whole way through. I really liked the plot, the romance, the danger, and the ending. There was no dragging. It took me a minute to get all of the nasty boys’ names placed with who and what they were doing, but I just had to back up and re-read it to figure it out. There is a lot of action taking place in this book, and I didn’t want to put it down. Get your copy today!
