Driven by the hit single "If This World," Jaci Velasquez's Heavenly Place is an impressive debut album from the 16-year old singer. Though the album lacks a consistently strong set of songs, the production by Mark Heimermann is professional and attractive, giving Velasquez's voice a chance to shine. She can navigate her way between CCM, pop and country with equal skill, making Heavenly Place a place worth visiting.
