The Angel Connection (Paperback)

The Angel Connection (Historical Fiction, Romance, Women's Fiction) Get swept away in this epic riveting love story. Set in mystical Bucks County Pennsylvania, birthplace of the Pennsylvania Impressionist movement, The Angel Connection reveals the story of two women in two worlds, hurtling through time toward the inevitable collision of their twin destinies. In the vein of The French Lieutenant's Woman and Outlander, The Angel Connection deftly combines historical and contemporary fiction to create a timeless love story told by two female protagonists born a century apart but mysteriously linked by long held secrets. In 1996 television journalist Morgan Reed is suddenly unemployed after a humiliating and very public divorce. Her estranged son Chad won't return calls. Escaping Philadelphia for the obscurity of a remote country village, she impulsively moves into the old Rectory. Soon unsettling paranormal events lead Morgan to believe that the house is haunted. When her charming but enigmatic neighbor Victor Cenzo invites her to collaborate on a documentary about the local painters of the Impressionist era, the two are drawn into a passionate but disquieting affair. Victor is a dance away lover. Soon her resentful son is back in the picture creating a tense triangle in which Morgan's loyalties are severely tested. With the start of filming, pieces of a century old mystery are illuminated and smoldering karmic embers ignite. And in a parallel universe ... In 1895 Evangeline Laury, the beautiful restless wife of a zealot preacher is torn between her role as obedient wife and mother and her birthright as a gifted artist. When she is drawn into a forbidden affair with a charismatic local Impressionist painter, unspeakable tragedy results, leaving her a virtual prisoner in the Rectory. Through courage and cunning she ultimately seizes the destiny that was hers from the beginning. Morgan and Evangeline, two women separated by a century, both struggle to fulfill their needs for creative expression, true love and familial duty. Bound together by universal forces beyond their control the two women's pasts meld into the present, fanning the fires of a shuddering retribution. Where does one story end and the other begin?
