This book make you want to laugh, cry and even celebrate.....Tragic car accident changes their lives...can they make it as angels?
Killed in a accident on Christmas Eve, Don and Cathy Angel are given a chance to become angels if they can perform six miracles by midnight.
This book was surprising good. Cathy and Don work together to perform the miracles because they do not want to be apart in the after-life. Even though you know they are going to be able to finish their tasks, it's surprising how they actually go about doing it. This story is sentimental and very much a tearjerker for me. My rating: 4.5 Stars.

Wonderful Book!!
This is the first book I have read by this author, and I am definitely looking forward to reading more books by this writer.Â
Cathy and Don Angel are on their way to Connecticut on Christmas Eve and end up dying tragically in a train accident.Â
Shortly after their death, they meet the angel Gabriel. Gabriel tells them that in order to receive their wings, each one will need to perform three miracles by midnight Christmas Eve.Â
The first miracle is to convince Jimmy O'Connor, an alcoholic, to leave the bar and go have dinner with his family on Christmas Eve.Â
Next, find Maggie St. John, a homeless lady, a home for Christmas.Â
After that, prevent Rowena Trent, a legally blind person, from committing suicide.Â
Thereafter, Sister Marie Claire is dying from cancer, and the Angel's have to "make death easy for her".
Finally, both Cathy and Don are transported back to the location of the train accident. Their last miracle is to save Cassandra and "the boys".
This book will definitely tug at your heartstrings! I am surprised that this book has not been made into a Hallmark movie!
I definitely recommend this book for anyone who needs an uplifting read.Â

I keep trying to get into her books, I just can't manage it. I can tell she's a good writer, I just don't click with her books.
Accidentally killed on Christmas Eve, Cathy and Don Angel are given a chance to achieve angelhood by performing three miracles each before Christmas Day. Their success is predictable, although the end result may be a surprise. Pozzessere (Slow Burn, Mira, 1994) gives a unique portrayal of the heavenly realm featuring a yuppie angel Gabriel. The realistic, punchy dialog is a plus for this short contemporary, with occasional flashes of humor, healthy doses of sentimentality, and tidy solutions to a series of standard holiday crises (e.g., a homeless woman, a family of unwanted children, a drunken father, a suicidal, blind teacher). Despite this slim hardcover's price, fans will most likely request it. Pozzessere also writes historicals as Heather Graham and Shannon Drake.
