From USA Today bestselling author Julianne MacLean comes an inspiring novel about secrets, forgiveness, and second chances. It’s the newest title in her popular Color of Heaven Series, where people are affected by real life magic and miracles that change everything they once believed about life and love.It’s been three years since Emma Cochran endured the worst possible tragedy—the sudden, … sudden, unexpected death of her four-year-old son. The emotional trauma tore her marriage apart, but now her divorce is final and she wants to begin again. She’s found happiness at last with her fiancé, Luke, who is eager to start a family with her.
On the other side of the country, single mother Bev Hutchinson watches helplessly as her five-year-old daughter Louise drowns in a high-profile boating accident. Miraculously, Louise is brought back to life by first-responders, then claims she went to heaven. The news causes a media frenzy surrounding the little girl, and Bev does everything she can to shield herself and her daughter from the relentless swarming of the press.
Lives collide when Emma becomes obsessed with the story of the child, thousands of miles away, who drowned and went to heaven. She wants to connect with the mother, but Emma’s fiancé is against the idea because he wants her to let go of her grief and move on.
But sometimes, moving on isn’t the right choice when miracles are leading you back to your past—toward something, or someone, who was your destiny all along.

makes one think………………………………………………….
This was the first book I’d read by the author; it made a tremendous impression on me. While I still don’t know if I believe that miracles are real, I’d like to think they can be.
This was an amazing book. Easy to read and a great story line. I loved it.
I knew when I saw the authors name that this book would be great! She did not disappoint! Simply wow!n!
Excellent series!
Excellent read! Don’t miss anything this author writes!
This book was a nice surprise with a feeling of being hopefully of afterlife.
another great summer read
This was an amazing read. The story builds and builds and then suddenly there is a twist and a turn and it all comes together.
The saying that every cloud has a silver lining is resoundingly brought home and this story has really touched my heart.
Julianne, once again you have outdone yourself. I’m sitting here wondering how you are going to top this one.
Definitely a very highly recommended story and I’m very happy to say that I loved every minute of it.
An advance copy of the book was provided by the author at no cost and this is my unbiased review.
predictable but a good nice read …. easy to read in a day
Disappointed! I like this author but this book was really out there. The theme of the book was about heaven. Not a real story at all but fanciful in a preposterous way.
Believable characters and life situations that really make you think about life after death. Comforting for those who have lost a loved one.
I have loved this whole series!!! Started them last summer in a matter of weeks. Great fast reading. Enjoy!!
Each book in this series is better than the next.
