Reviewed by Mamta Madhavan for Readers' Favorite

Angels of the Heart by Regina Andrews is the second book of the Sterling Lakes Series. Maryanne Lynch is a television journalist engaged to Elwood. Travis Collimore is a developer who is planning to pull down the Townsend Barn, a prominent landmark of Sterling Lakes, and build a strip mall there. Maryanne is not too happy with that and, Travis being an old friend, she goes to Sterling Lakes to talk to him. The Townsend Barn holds a lot of memories for Maryanne and her childhood is tied with that place. She feels sad to know that the place will go and Sterling Lakes will not be the same anymore without that landmark. Will Maryanne be able to save the old barn or will Travis succeed in pulling it down for their ambitious project?

The story is woven around the two characters, Travis and Maryanne. Both of them are strong characters who believe in working towards the empowerment of their society. The twist in the story is when Maryanne, despite being engaged to Elwood, finds herself drawn to Travis. Their stories and their individual ambitions run parallel to each other and the author brings it all together beautifully in a perfect ending.

The growth of Travis and Maryanne as people, and their spiritual growth, makes the story inspiring to the readers. The subtlety and gentleness in the narration is effective when it comes to conveying the author's thoughts. A nice, spiritually uplifting romance. It kind of leaves you with a warm feeling after reading.
