Second paranormal romance in the Guardian Angel series Buy your copy! Lulu.Com Double Dragon Publishing Effie Scarsmore and Coralee Nye migrate west to Silver City, Idaho after losing their teaching positions at an eastern private academy. Effie's intended, Milford Browne, has been in Silver City for more than a year, establishing his fortune and building a new home where he'll live with his future bride. But when Effie and Coralee arrive unannounced, they learn Milford is steeped in gambling debts and has chosen to raffle off the unfinished house to pay off his creditors. Effie's furious and announces that her hand in marriage is part of the raffle prize. Woe to young ladies who make such rash promises! Good thing for both gals Silver City is also blessed with a pair of invisible guardian angels, who have a directive about how human lives and loves should unfold.    Excerpt There, in all his obvious lack of glory, was Milford Browne. He wore a shabby, threadbare suit, swept the hat from his head, and announced that everyone knew why he'd gathered them in town. They might as well get on with it. He reached into a brass spittoon stuffed with paper chits and withdrew one. Peered at it for a breathless few seconds, then raised his head to call out the name of the raffle winner. But before he could open his mouth, a goat appeared in the dirt street beside him and bleated. Milford jerked in surprise. His fingers holding the raffle chit jerked toward the animal. The goat stretched its neck out, snatched the paper, and munched it to bits, swallowing before Milford could react. For a disbelieving second, no one said anything. Then chaos broke out in the town square.

Coffee Time Romance
I loved the subplots...and the way these storylines were resolved. The dialogue between the characters was totally believable, never more so than when Lars' command of English improved to the point of him communicating his thoughts and showing there's more to this big lug of a guy than mere brawn.

Fallen Angel Reviews
Wishful Thinking is an evocative, humorous, and fascinating look at the early mining towns with a paranormal twist. Shannah Biondine's historical detail created a place right out of history with a touch of magic.
