Mi Angel

Nothing was as it seemed at first in this contemporary, heartwarming tale of a young woman who had come to a point in her life where everything was going downhill. Having to deal with an injured, petulant younger sister, a morose, grieving mother, and a recent breakup, Georgie Greene had only one choice left: to cope as best she could in her own way. She had thought the trip to her grandparent's ranch up north, supposedly for the benefit of her sister, would be nothing more than revisiting painful old memories. Little did she know that she would come to learn of a heart-wrenching secret her grandparents had thus far kept from the family. Apart from that was her family's mysterious involvement with the gorgeous-looking, impertinent ranger whose face she could not get out of her head. Just when things were starting to look up, she was tossed into a whirlpool of disconcerting circumstances which threatened to send her spirits plummeting once more. Would she get her life back on track, and perhaps, even kindle a little romance anew? She knew the man she wanted, but did he want her, now that he was holding the other woman's hand sparkling with a diamond ring?

In the beginning, there was Dolores (The Mother), Alejandro (The Father), and the first-born child, Glorya. Joyce came two years later, and then, two years after that, came Julius. Dolores and Alejandro were very much in love. Their love produced the three children, whom they adored. Alejandro worked very hard to support his family, while Dolores, it seemed to him, was the best homemaker in the world. Alejandro was a talented house builder – a trade taught to him by his father. He had begun as a construction worker and later, through his many hours of hard work and through learned techniques, had become an excelled brick layer, proficient in adobe work, actually making his own sun–baked mud and straw bricks! Soon his work became known throughout all of Albuquerque, and it wasn’t long afterward, that he organized his own company, hiring the best workers – those whom he had come to respect as hardworking, capable men. He soon had a very thriving business. Dolores was a loving wife and mother. Rising early every morning, she had breakfast ready for Alejandro and the children, as well as their sack lunches. Dolores’ mornings were spent reading and studying the European Home Decorating books which she would check out of the library. From these, she would draw her own ideas by which to adorn their home, always staying within a certain budget. In the afternoons, Dolores studied bookkeeping from a family friend who was a C.P.A. (Now that Alejandro’s business was really taking off, she was to become his company’s bookkeeper.) As Glorya, Joyce, and Julius returned from school, they started on their homework, while Dolores prepared supper. Alejandro arrived from work, as everyone washed up before sitting at the table. After supper, everyone helped out clearing the table, washing and drying, and putting the dishes away. Alejandro and Dolores took turns in the evenings, looking over everyone’s homework. The routine was a good one – everyone knew and understood the plan, and adhered to it!. (Glorya is born to Alejandro and Dolores; is nurtured with love, religion, and guidance; and is raised in a very structured life.)
