Saving Evangeline by Nancee Cain
Synopsis
Evangeline is the town pariah. Everyone knows she’s crazy and was responsible for the death of her last boyfriend. Even her mother left her and moved cross-country. Lonely and desperate, Evie decides to end her life.
Rogue angel Remiel longs to return to earth, but there’s just one problem. He tends to invite trouble and hasn’t been allowed back since Woodstock. The Boss sends him to save Evangeline, but there’s a catch: he can’t reveal his angelic nature, and he must complete the task as Father Remiel Blackson.
Forced together on a cross-country trip, a forbidden romance ignites and love unfolds. A host of heavenly messengers tries to intervene, but Remiel and Evangeline are headed on a collision course to disaster. Will his love save her, or will they both be lost forever?

Excerpt
“Don’t do it,” a deep male voice commands.
A
whisper of a breeze caresses my cheek. With a frustrated sigh, I lower
my foot and drag my gaze from the murky, dark water that beckons me with
its siren’s song. Glaring at the unwelcome intruder, I dash the tears
from my cheeks. He stands in the shadow, and all I can make out is that
he’s tall with broad shoulders. Striding toward me, hands in his
pockets, he starts whistling. The thought occurs to me I should be
scared and run, but it’s as if I’m glued to the spot. As he comes into
the light, I see he’s a priest. But he doesn’t look like any priest I’ve
ever known. This guy is Hollywood gorgeous. Under the dim light, he
appears almost incandescent and his emerald eyes seem lit from within.
Their intensity burns a hole into my paper-thin bravado, which slips
away and disappears like ashes in the wind.
Dammit,
I’d just worked up the courage to follow through with my plan to leave
this nightmare behind, and this stranger has interrupted, dragging me
back to my personal hell on earth.
Nancee Cain writes contemporary and paranormal romances with a serrated edge. In her stories she addresses some tough social issues, but always with a healthy dose of humor.
Her daytime hours are consumed by nursing in the never boring field of substance abuse. This is rather ironic since at age 22, she met her real-life hero in a bar. She swears the amount of alcohol she'd consumed had nothing to do with her boisterous proclamation she'd met her future husband. A year later, she married him.
Raised below the Mason-Dixon line, she dishes sarcasm like a Southern woman dishes blackberry cobbler, sweet and tart. She considers life too short not to laugh and too serious not to discuss. Her ultimate book hero will always be Atticus Finch.
An avid reader and admitted autographed book junkie, Nancee needs a 12-step program for her compulsive book buying. Her Devoted Hubby swears her To-Be-Read list qualifies her as a certifiable book hoarder.
