I was advised by a very dear friend to pick this book up as soon as I could because they thought it was interesting. Once I began reading the characters captured my attention, I wanted to know what was going to happen next and didn't want to put it down until it was finished. Kendy and Angel genuinely loved one another which was evident but not Christian like, I felt for them at one point and thought it must be so many others that need to hear/read this book to receive the message. The Author must have went through alot with her emotions and everyday struggle with the fleshly battles that seemed overwhelming. I give her alot of respect and on top of that recommended to all my friends!

Met this author in Florida a few years ago!! This is a 'must' read for all Christian 'gays'. In places the story made me cry; others too explicit; not always the best dialogue I've read and being set in the world of the 'money is no object' means it is not always believeable - HOWEVER - honesty; the depth of the love for each other and our wonderful Saviour and Bridegroom JESUS is totally believeable for I can witness to the reality myself. Thank you for writing this novel.

The Journey to Salvation
12 Nov 2006
By Cheryl L. Pastor
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
How Can An Angel Take My Heart: The Positive Side of Temptation is unlike anything I've ever read before. Ms. Knox has revealed a world of which not many would dare to speak.
Ms. Knox's ability to weave a story of love, hate, intrigue, salvation, and ultimately redemption is nothing short of sheer genius. The reader is drawn into the world of Kennedy and Angel, a world of sweet subtlety, uncertainty, and finally, total submission to one's own desires. Yet, in the midst of all that is forbidden, the merciful, and gentle hand of God is ever present, tugging at the heartstrings of the two women, forcing them to make hard decisions; decisions that will not only affect them in this life but also in the life to come.
The journey to salvation is long, and at times, extremely hard. Ms. Knox shows us that, in the human condition, frailty and strength, more often than not, go hand in hand. And no matter what the struggle, whether it be homosexuality, fornication, adultery, drug addiction, or simply an inability to forgive, How Can an Angel Take My Heart: The Positive Side of Temptation reminds us that our choices, for better or for worse, will have eternal consequences.

Looking at it from the other side
6 Oct 2004
By Nikki
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
First I would like to congradulate Ms. Knox on her success. I read this book in 3 days and absoulutely felled in love with every character. Even though the book was about fighting the temptation of the human flesh and your love for God, it also was about unconditonal love. Unconditional love between two individuals who were not just in love with each other's flesh but in love with each other's heart, mind, and soul. In my opinion Christians believe that when you engage in homosexuality you are going to hell. Me being on the otherside do not believe that. That do not mean I do not love the lord almighty. I know who the lord is and what he stands for and that's love. I pray to him, I feel his presence, I thank the lord every morning for letting me see another day. NO one can judge me but the lord himself and when he's ready to show me what he want's from me, he will. Yes, I love differently but I also love the lord. You can love the lord unconditonally and love someone else too. Be it male or female. The book was great, it will change some peoples live and some it won't. But don't criticize, hate, or judge someone you know nothing about. Remember, they say that's also a sin. Get the book and happy reading!

A word for today
20 Jan 2005
By S. d. Winston
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I enjoyed reading How Can an Angel Take My Heart. Ms. Knox has really captured alot of the issues that the world is facing today. People who stand in judgment of others will have to deal with someone else judging them one day. No matter what a person chooses to do in their life, we as people don't have the right to judge them. There is not a perfect person on this earth, therefore we need to inspect and clean up our own lives before passing judgment on others. I was able to draw alot of positiveness from the book. In the end, doing what is right doesnt always feel good but it allows you to grow and see a brighter tomorrow with time if you just stay optomistic. Ms. Knox has confronted some very real issues that people deal with today. I can't wait to see her next book. I'm sure she will continue to have a very strong voice in the world and continue to be a light at the end of some tunnels. I hope her book continues to help others.
