Blurb Blitz/Giveaway - Angel Within by C.B. Barlow



 

 

Angel Within by C. B. Barlow 

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ GENRE: YA Urban Fantasy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

 BLURB: Sixteen-year old Rachel has an over protective but loving mother and a boring but safe life. All this changes in a blink of an eye. Rachel is now an orphan and learning she is more than human. She is thrust into a new world of friends, family and love along with fears, foes and evil. Evil that seeks to destroy her and all she holds dear. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

 Excerpt: They say your whole life flashes before your eyes right before you die. Well for me, it didn’t, it was only the last couple of months. That might be, because that was when my whole world changed. In those months, I had lost a loved one, been attacked, run for my life, seen suffering, and fought for revenge. But it hadn’t all been bad. I had learned the truth about myself, made new friends, strengthened old friendships, become part of a family, and fallen in love. My vision was getting blurry, but I could still see Isaac standing over me, beautiful, angelic Isaac. If he was the last thing I saw on this Earth before I died, I would consider myself lucky. Although I wish…Suddenly there was a bright light, so blinding that I closed my eyes. This must be the infamous white light everybody sees before they die. The pain was getting worse. I didn’t want to die. I’m only sixteen years old. None of this should have happened. I should have been at home with Mom watching TV, hanging out with friends, or going to a football game. It’s kind of funny, a couple months ago that was the only thing that mattered. Going to a football game.

She is an avid reader of all genres of books and has a passion for anything angel related. When she is not working full time as a Registered Nurse, she enjoys writing. Recently Cindy decided to mash up her enjoyment and her passion into a book. She hopes her readers will have as much fun reading this book as much as she did writing it.

  4. This book sounds interesting and intriguing.
    I think a lot kids are in this situation and even some adults who used to be kids were in the same situations. I would love to read this book to find out how Rachel's situation(s) turn out.
    I would love to read and review this book in format. As for the book cover its OK but having the blue eye on it makes you wonder what's within the person and the excerpt sounds interesting and intriguing. Glad you put that blue eye on cover because it makes you wonder how things will turn out and what's within the person.
    Look forward to learning more about you and your book(s).
    HOPE I WIN.
    THANKS FOR CHANCE TO WIN.

    1. Angel Within is book one in a series, but I also feel it can be a stand alone. Thanks for asking.

  6. Wish my eyes were that shade of blue! Love the excerpt! A scary feeling to die at any age, let alone at 16.
