Sasha Denning doesn’t ask for anything—ever. Feeling unappreciated and stuck in a
crumbling marriage with her husband, Mark, she’s suddenly given a dramatic escape: a near-death experience. Returning to life with a mission to help others, Sasha is thrust into a series of challenges that range from comical to heart-wrenching.
Zinnia, her determined but rule-bound trainee spirit guide, wants to help Sasha mend her life and marriage. But with The Spirit Guidance Rule Book restricting her every move, Zinnia faces her own struggles to prove she’s ready to qualify. When disaster looms, Zinnia must decide what matters most—her mission, her career, or Sasha and Mark’s future.
Jay Jacobs, a writer and mother of two, was inspired to write after her sister shared the account of a little boy’s near-death experience. Exploring a wealth of similar stories, uncovering a fascinating and life-affirming perspective, this journey ignited her creativity, resulting in an uplifting novel intended to inspire and resonate with readers seeking hope and transformation.
My thoughts: This was a bit different from my usual fare, narrated by trainee spirit guide Zinnia, who is watching over Sasha, a mother of three who is rather fed up with her husband Mark, who never helps out at home. After a horrible car accident, Sasha has a near death experience, and the spirit of her Gran takes her on a quick tour of her life and some people who need her help.
Recuperating in hospital, Sasha discovers she’s a bit psychic now and keeps reliving her strange experience. Recovering in record time, she’s determined to at least try to help the people she saw in her vision.
But her marriage is still in decline and her refusal to ask for help is stopping her from putting anything right in her own life. How can she help others but not herself? Zinnia is getting frustrated as she’s not supposed to directly intervene but when something threatens to completely destroy Sasha’s marriage, she can’t help herself. But has she made things or worse?
A quirky and at times very funny book about trying to do the right thing, even when it makes you seem crazy and learning that it’s ok to ask for help and not always put everyone else first.
