Naples, Florida, welcomes Ayla with open arms a year after her husband's death. With her cancer in remission, she is committed to embracing life fully. Low golden rays of sunlight proclaimed the promise of a new day as Ayla walks the beach that first morning. While struggling to manage a fistful of seashells, Leo, a retired photographer, comes to her aid. Ayla is smitten by his wit and kindness. Sharing an appreciation of life's beauty and fragility, their relationship quickly blossoms over seaside strolls and savored sunsets.
Before long, Ayla glimpses another side of Leo: a side shaded by the pain of his childhood and the horrors he witnessed as an international photographer. Initially, Ayla blames herself for provoking his occasional harsh outbursts. Then she stumbles upon a secret which could explain his Jekyll and Hyde behavior. Ayla is torn between deception and truth. Confessing her discovery could rip them apart. Ayla cares too deeply to risk it, but does she really have a choice?
It had been two days since Leo stomped off the beach. His silence was unbearable. When Ayla steps into Leo's condo to make amends, nothing could have prepared her for what she found. Angel Wings is an emotionally engaging story of love, loss and redemption told through a lens of faith and the enduring power of grace.
