Please give us a short introduction to Angel to the Rescue.
First, I would like to thank ManyBooks for allowing me to spend time with your subscribers today. I'm Petie [Pee-dee] McCarty and I write action-adventure/contemporary romance.
Angel to the Rescue is the second book in my Mystery Angel Romance series. Each stand-alone love story in the series has an angel hidden in the plot. The angel's identity is not revealed until the finale unless the reader figures it out first.
In Angel to the Rescue, Child psychologist Rachel Kelly isn't sure how to handle the situation with her newest client -- a six-year-old boy who says he can talk to angels and one is coming to help Rachel. She already has her hands full of trouble this Christmas season, …show more content…

I had to create five distinct personalities, give them each a specialty for the hostage-crisis team, and keep track of each of them throughout the crisis. Each had to be placed and maintained at the exact spot and exact time for the rescue operation to work. Easily, the toughest book I have even written.
What do you hope your readers will take away from Angel to the Rescue? Is there an underlying message?
No matter how dire your situation or circumstances may be, there is always a "helper" close by waiting to assist you. Sometimes you know them, sometimes you don't. One just has to learn to keep their eyes and their heart open to recognize the helpers.
Besides being a romantic suspense, Angel to the Rescue also touches on difficult real-life issues such as child abuse, spousal abuse, and pedophilia. Was that a deliberate
