First Chapter Sample
FROM THE MOMENT she grasped my hand and led me into a night of eternal love at a remote bordello called the Tiger Ranch in the Las Vegas desert nearly fifteen years ago, I knew Caroline Carmichael was what the romantics called the one.

My love for Caroline grew even more when she shared the news of her pregnancy, and my heart was filled with joy at the thought of starting a family with her. I wanted to spend my life with Caroline and watch our daughter, Vicki, grow up and someday begin her own family.

I'd die for the loves of my life. After all the angel nonsense I've dealt with over the years, the angels have always treated my loved ones as afterthoughts. I hated their callousness with a passion, and I resented them from the moment they first entered my life over twenty years ago. Angels sucked.

No angels appeared during the fourteen years we raised Vicki, who was growing into a bright, intelligent, and fun-loving young woman. Still, they always managed to signal they were nearby, and that kept me on edge.

I told Vicki about the angels, the angelic world called Hali, time travel, and other evils of the world. However, some nightmares were too frightening for young kids, so I chose my moments carefully.

Caroline never approved of my educating Vicki about my experiences with angels, but she knew, as I did, what possible horrors loomed ahead. I didn't like involving my fourteen-year-old daughter in my trials, especially not with the fallen angel, Turel, and Chicago gangster, Joe 'Delmo' Delmonico, in the picture.

The Hali Saga
