“My guardian angel is a drunk.”
Evelyn Casey's life is at a standstill. She's in her mid-twenties, struggling with the dating scene in San Francisco. Nothing seems to be working out, and she’s starting to think that she’ll live out her days in her crummy apartment with her overbearing roommate, Brooklyn. It's absurd, but sometimes Evey longs for a guardian angel to show up and save the day.
And then he does. Seriously. His name is Lucian and he's a guardian angel, been on the job for two thousand years. His sudden presence in her life is both good—he's brilliant, witty, and warm—and bad—he's brilliant, witty, warm, and hot as ----. But as perfect as Lucian seems, he’s got problems of his own. He’s taken up drinking and he’s brazenly inserted himself into Evey’s life, going against the greatest cosmic law ever created.
For Evey, the rules are simple: You are not allowed to hook up with your guardian angel. But sometimes fulfilling your destiny requires a leap of faith, a confrontation with God.
Yes, God as in God.

PICCOLI TEASER TRATTI DAL ROMANZO
"I would just stick around and try to
collect smiles from her. I'd put them all inside myself and try to build my own
little pathetic soul from the love she had given me."
-Lucian
"You are everything to me. You're the
dream, the air, the reason, the cause for my whole existence."
-Lucian
"I'd die ten thousand deaths for
you."
-Lucian
"I’m on the other side of life, Evey,
existing where death belongs and yearning to be with you. Yearning in brief
moments to bring you here, into the darkness. When my thoughts are so painfully
selfish, I cannot breathe you in at all. I cannot love you when I hate myself.
Don’t say my name. Don’t think about me. Don’t imagine how we can be
together."
-Lucian
“Evelyn, I’ve existed for more than two
millennia. In two thousand years, I have watched over so many lives. At times,
more than five souls were my responsibility alone. I’ve watched all of them
die. I’ve held many of them while they were dying. It’s in my nature to do
that, to give peace to my souls, to look out for them when I can, to sway the
good ones to do the right thing, and to protect man and life here on Earth.
I’ve watched over stunningly beautiful and brilliant women, but I have never
felt love for any human the way I feel it for you. You are literally the air in
my lungs.”
-Lucian
“Isn’t love supposed to be easy? Isn’t love
supposed to be fun? The moment you fall in love, you become acutely aware of
all the different ways the person you love can die. It’s sickening. It’s morbid
and painful and heart-wrenching, and it’s all totally worth it.”
-Lucian
“Evey, next time, in the next life we’ll be
together—that’s how this will be corrected. This will be righted. This can’t be
our forever fate. Next time we’ll live together, we’ll die together. We’ll
experience every war together, inside ourselves and outside in the world. We
won’t be out of reach, unavailable, unattainable, just love longing to be.
Let’s keep moving fast in opposite directions. Keep praying we meet on the
other side. I’ll see you there; I know I will. I have to believe that. Watch
for me. I’ll be barreling toward you, arms wide open, and then we’ll crash into
each other with the force of two spent lives yearning to be one.”
-Lucian
