However, the baby arrives safely into the world.

The five of us would be rejected and turned out to the cold winter streets by our own family, leaving the five of us homeless, cold, and hungry. Threats to our lives by neighbors caused us to live in constant fear for our lives.

Things escalate until the state removes the children permanently from the father. Years passed and the baby of the family unexpectedly dies at the age of thirty-two years. After thirty-eight years abusing alcohol, the father has an out-of-body experience that takes his spirit to the depth of hell to have a firsthand look of what this place of eternal damnation will be like. My prayers to the single parent are that there is hope and help. My help came from coming to believe in a higher power, and that higher power for me was Jesus Christ.

This isn't about slinkster dogs, strawberry sundaes, or sleeping on the beach. Because it's Witch Baby's story. And Witch Baby is different. So maybe it's a book about not belonging. About being outside, looking in. Or it could be about getting so mad you could smash the world. Or maybe it's really about true love, too. And Witch Baby just hasn't figured it out yet... The Dangerous Angels series continues with: 3. CHEROKEE BAT AND THE GOAT GUYS (Sep '02); 4. MISSING ANGEL JUAN (Nov '02); 5. BABY BE-BOP (Jan '03)

Pages : 351
Book Description
Fans of Sophie Kinsella and Lindsey Kelk, meet Emma Garcia. Vivienne Summers may very well become your next favourite heroine and the one you will want to keep visiting over and over.' Good Books and a Cup of Tea This ISN'T a book about babies... It IS about two people, one unexpected pregnancy and a question... Viv and Max were best friends for years, then they were lovers and then it all went terribly wrong. Now finally they are to be reunited. Viv feels sick. Not just with nerves at seeing the gorgeous Max again, but because there's a small chance she might, quite possibly, most definitely, be pregnant. It's thrilling. But also terrifying. At thirty-two Viv doesn't have a job, only eats fruit when there's nothing else, and can barely meet the needs of her foster cat. And whilst she knows that Max is the love of her life, they don't exactly have the most stable relationship. Then, as Viv's long-lost mother reappears on the scene and they all end up sharing an apartment, all hell breaks loose. HOW ON EARTH ARE THEY GOING TO COPE? OMG Baby! is the hilarious, cringe-worthy and touching sequel to Never Google Heartbreak. What people are saying about Emma Garcia 'This book picks up where Garcia's brilliant debut Never Google Heartbreak left off and it's great to catch up with Viv and Max. Garcia's ingenious wit and characterisation once again shine through... Another laugh-out-loud read from a hugely talented writer'. Chick Lit Club 'Her cracking pace and rapier wit, together with her robust and honest prose will be bound to win Emma Garcia a sackful of fans. Perfect for lovers of Bridesmaids and Caitlin Moran.'Red Magazine 'To say that this book was eagerly awaited is an absolute understatement. Following on from NEVER GOOGLE HEARTBREAK, OMG Baby! reconnects us with Viv and Max in all their fabulously sarcastic glory. The chemistry between these two characters is not only believable but so captivating. Viv and Max have the makings of a married couple but will they ever get that far?' A Page of Love
