Samantha Strong (samanthalstrong) | 206 comments Guarding Angel is the story of a guardian angel who is forced to confront her inability to protect her Wards when a demon interferes in their lives. It's the first in a trilogy.

I haven't yet picked a release date, but it will likely be April/May. I just got the final marketing copy, so I added it to Goodreads and now my profile lists me officially as an author. *beams* My book cover should be done by February.

I've always been interested in religion and the supernatural. I've gone from living in a 1,200-person small town in Iowa to the multi-cultural city of Toronto, and I find different takes on the afterlife fascinating. A lot of the religion in the book is based on Sylvia Browne's idea of planning our lives ahead of time and reincarnation, but of course, her own ideas are taken from other religions, as well.

Also, I wanted to explore a couple of ideas. First, the idea that bad things happening to a person can lead to good things in the long run. How many of us wouldn't be the person we are today if we didn't suffer a tragedy? And second, I wanted to explore the idea that people sometimes makes decisions that look wrong to others, but are actually right for them.

Samantha Strong (samanthalstrong) | 206 comments Just an update: My cover reveal is slated for Tuesday, Feb. 18th. I have a number of blogs doing the cover reveal, but if you're interested, let me know. (Post here or PM me or email me at samantha.saboviec@gmail.com)

I know everyone loves their covers, but MINE IS SO BEAUTIFUL! (I know, I sound like a first-time mom ...) I would highly, highly recommend my cover artist, Regina Wamba, if anyone is looking for someone. Her website: www.maeidesign.com

Samantha Strong (samanthalstrong) | 206 comments Another update:

Cover is up. Yes, ok, it's been over a month, so I'm a little late in posting. :) Things are getting Not Done as I try to navigate my way through the 2nd trimester. At least my energy is up.

Anyway, enough about me. Let me just say again how awesome I think Regina Wamba, my cover designer is.

I'm currently looking for review bloggers or people who regularly do reviews on GR/Amazon to review the ARC. I can provide any/all formats that you want. If that interests you, email me at Samantha.Saboviec@gmail.com.

I also moved the publish date to May 19th, since the developmental edits took longer than I expected. (I think I was being a little aggressive, but mostly because I didn't get as much done in my first trimester as I had planned!)
