Review – Angel Falls

Back cover:

Two lives Collide in a deadly race to save an orphaned baby

Regina da Silva and Brooks Anderson have been so broken by their violent pasts that they believe romantic love to be an illusion. Instead, they focus on helping others: Regina reaches out to street kids while Brooks uses his military knowledge to organize rescue operations.

Their paths cross in Brazil when they are forced to work together to protect the orphaned baby of a dear friend. On the run and seeking safety in unexpected places, they soon realize that a killer is desperate to destroy not just the child but Brooks and Regina as well.

As the danger heightens around them, so does their attraction. Will their pasts stop them from realizing their true feelings for each other when their pursuer strives to keep them apart forever?

My Take:

Angel Falls, Connie Mann’s debut novel, is a riveting read starting with the first page keeping you reading all the way through the book. You will not want to put this book down until the satisfying conclusion.

Mann vividly paints a picture of the areas of Brazil that we don’t often read about and the plight of the street kids. Her imagery of their struggle evokes compassion from the reader and emotions fiction often fails to provide. Her characters are real and struggling, making the reader want to root for them and their happily ever after as they run for their lives and solve the mystery surrounding them. This is a unique and memorable book, so don’t delay. Pick it up and start your journey to Brazil.
