How can you ever love again when tragedy has crushed your heart?


Kathleen used to love life. She had plans, dreams, and faith in life; but that was before the accident that took it all away from her in an instant. Now that her beloved brother is dead and she's confined to a wheelchair, her future is but a dark cloud hovering above her head. How can she ever find the will to move on and keep living without him? Even the cares of the happy-go-lucky American physiotherapist who's helping her with her rehab therapies are all in vain. Life seems to have lost its meaning, until one night she receives an unexpected celestial visit…


Colin has been working as a physiotherapist in Dublin for almost five years, but he’s never bonded so much with a patient like he is bonding with Kathleen; there's something about those sad blue eyes that makes him want to help her, to take away the pain that reminds him so much of his own. Having lost both his parents in a plane crash when he was only sixteen, Colin knows how it feels to have someone you love taken so abruptly away from you, and he makes it his mission to help Kathleen find her faith in life again. But something changes along the way…


Sometimes love can work miracles. If you believe.

About the Author-
An avid reader since her childhood years and being an only child, Roberta always enjoyed the company of her fictional friends from the children’s books she loved reading, while she dreamed of writing her own stories one day.
It was when she discovered novels by authors Rosamunde Pilcher and Maeve Binchy in her teenage years that she realized it was time she put down in words the stories she had kept well hidden in her mind until then.
What started as a hobby, soon turned into a real passion and a way of life, until she could no longer keep the stories to herself, and decided to get over her fears and share them with the world.
Roberta lives in Italy, but her dream is to move out of her country and live either in a thatched cottage in the Irish countryside or in a country house with a swing on the back porch, somewhere in the United States, where she would love to spend her days writing novels as a full-time job, and maybe one day even get as far as writing a screenplay for a movie.

Favorite Quotes:

“I know what it feels to have someone you love taken away from you abruptly with no chance to say goodbye, no chance to tell them how much you loved them,” he said, his eyes still locked with mine. “I know the pain, the emptiness, the rage, the despair that takes hold of your body, crushing your heart and leaving you breathless. But you can’t let it destroy you.”
I stared at him openmouthed, feeling my heart ache at the way his eyes had lost their gleam.”

“An angel?” he finished my sentence and I nodded. He looked at me, his blue eyes deeper than ever. “I’m not only an angel, Kathy. I’m your angel. I’m here to help you. I’ve been sent to cure your soul and help you fulfill your destiny.”


“Look for me in a rainbow, in the wind, in a blue sky. You’ll see me there, smiling at you from Heaven.”
Declan was there, hugging me in his own”


Do you believe in Ghost? Do you believe in angels?  Do you believe in miracles?  If you do then this is a book for you.

Kathleen had a dream, a plan and a loving brother but a tragic accident took it all away from her in an instant including her brother. Confined to a wheelchair and knowing her life will never be the same again at least she thought so. Then she meets her physiotherapist Colin and he decided his is going to make it his mission to help her but he is not sure why.

Colin is a man who like Kathleen has had his share of pain in his life. He lost his parents in a plane crash at a young age which means he really does know what Kathleen (aka Icy to him) is going through. What neither of them expects is that they will help each other heal. How can they heal each other you ask? Well they don’t do it alone they do it with the help of their angels, yes, that’s right I said their angels.  The angels are her brother Declan and his parents. They help to show them they are there for them in their hearts and will always be there you just may not always see or feel them.

Overtime their love grows and their hearts heal.  With the help of her brother healing touch she is able to walk again.  Love can truly work miracles. “If you believe”…

This story is a heart wrenching, tragic, tear jerker.  Make sure when you read this you have tissues.  Crying is a strong possibility.  They way Colin and Kathleen banter with each other is awesome.  They both learn to lean on each other and trust each other. I found myself so involved in the story that I started yelling for her to listen and laughed and cried right along with her and Colin.  I do believe in angels and these two had three.  Loved the story… Can't wait to read another of her stories.
