Synopsis

Millionaire media mogul Raymond Neenan can't believe his ears—or his eyes. the seat next to him, empty for the whole flight, now barely contains a huge man who looks a lot like Chicago Bulls superstar Michael Jordan.In fact, the "man" is the Archangel Michael ("Not Mike, not Mikey, but Michael. you got a problem with that?), and he's looking to make a deal for Neenan's immortal soul.Neenan isn't interested in his soul or anyone else's unless there is money in it, but a little well-timed turbulence that sends the plane hurtling earthward caused him to reconsider. If he doesn't believe in it, what could it hurt to sign?But for a man like Neenan,making amends is no easy task. Though he never knew it, he's damaged a lot of lives, including his own. He's hated or feared by his parents, his ex-wife, his children, and practically everyone he's ever met.

Goodreads review by David on July 23, 2013

Didn't care for this book. I had to keep reminding myself it was written by a Priest. Almost didn't finish it. Too much sex, the "angels" were turned into something sensual and full of magic acts. Had to read between the lines to get the story. Don't understand why he felt it necessary to have sex o......more
