What if finding your soulmate was the easy part—and becoming ready to love her was the challenge?
Preorder Now ↗Meet FinnHeaven is everything Finn Fletcher could have imagined—and then some. Spectacular meals. Impossible adventures. Even a concert with Beethoven. With eternity at his fingertips, what could possibly go wrong?
Then Finn meets the love of his lifetimes, Jessica...only that wasn't supposed to happen. He missed some lessons in unconditional love his last lifetime and this keeps her just out of reach, in Heaven and in their next lifetime planning.
But Finn can't get her out of his mind. As he revisits past lives, encounters some extraordinary teachers, and prepares for another trip to Earth, he becomes determined to find a way around Heaven's rules.
The trouble is, the harder Finn tries to control his destiny, the further he may be from the love he's searching for.
A funny, heartfelt adventure about soulmates, second chances, and the very human temptation to outsmart the universe.

This captivating book explains the magic and mystery of reincarnation and manifestation, and most importantly, it's a love story about soulmates that will appeal to all genders.”

Guardian angels with a sense of humor. Past lives with unfinished business. Lifetime planning that turns out to be more complicated than expected.
And one lovestruck soul exploring, “What’s the worst that can happen if you try and hack Heaven?”
Welcome to Finn Fletcher's Paradise.
Finn is wandering through Paradise when an unexpected encounter changes everything.
A gentle touch, lithe as the wing of a hummingbird touches my hand. I glance down. It’s a woman’s hand, soft, delicate, and soothing. I look up at her face. My Jessica! She looks at me, her aquamarine eyes translucent in clarity and color, soft and understanding. I am riveted as her light pierces my soul. This is all I need.
“Finn?” she says. “You are here. This is where I come to revitalize. No one usually comes here. What are you doing here?”
“Jessica?” I stumble over her name and find myself at a loss for words. Then it gets awkward. She blinks, looks down a moment, and then back up.
“I was just taking a walk,” I say, “enjoying the scenery. Sorry if I’m interrupting your privacy.”
