Traces of Bliss continues to receive critical acclaim. Kirkus Indie Review wrote, "It is a beautifully written story of love, loss, and opportunity. Velastegui's psychological thriller is a dark tale of angst and redemption spanning centuries." Additionally, ForeWord Review gave it a Five Stars out of five review, "Traces of Bliss is full of surprises, switchbacks, and skillfully evoked vignettes of an ancient world of supernatural events that bleed into present-day reality. Its focus on strong but otherworldly females will remind some readers of books of Isabel Allende and Margaret Atwood, while its blend of everyday happenings with step-through visions from the world of ghosts and spirits is reminiscent of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Mario Vargas Llosa. Velastegui spins her lush tale with a sense of the sacredness of inner vision. Hers is a celebration of language that readers have come to expect from Latin American writers; Velastegui deserves to be recognized as a distinguished member of that group." http://www.TracesofBliss.com.
Velastegui's debut novel, Gathering the Indigo Maidens, which details the proliferation of Spanish Colonial art theft and human trafficking, was also a finalist in six fiction categories at the International Latino Book Awards. Velastegui donates the proceeds of this novel to the Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force. http://www.CeciliaVelastegui.com
