Angels Walking: A Novel by Karen Kingsbury




About the Book:

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury comes the first in a brand-new series about second chances—a dramatic story about a washed up baseball player, the love he left behind, and the miracles that might save them both.

When former national baseball star Tyler Ames suffers a career-ending injury, all he can think about is putting his life back together the way it was before. He has lost everyone he loves on his way to the big leagues. Then just when things seem to be turning around, Tyler hits rock bottom. Across the country, Tyler’s one true love Sami Dawson has moved on.

A series of small miracles leads Tyler to a maintenance job at a retirement home and a friendship with Virginia Hutcheson, an old woman with Alzheimer’s who strangely might have the answers he so desperately seeks.

A team of Angels Walking take on the mission to restore hope for Tyler, Sami, and Virginia. Can such small and seemingly insignificant actions of the unseen bring healing and redemption? And can the words of a stranger rekindle lost love? Every journey begins with a step.

It is time for the mission to begin…

My Thoughts:

This series opens with a refreshing and unique concept:  angels sent to Earth with divine instruction.  Think "Touched by an Angel" meets "Mission Impossible", and put an accurate Biblical spin on it.

That's kind of what you'll find in "Angels Walking".  And you'll love watching the story unfold.

Most believers know that nothing happens by chance.  If you don't, then go check out Romans 8:28!  But to watch the threads of multiple lives intersect in what appears to be random moments turn into a tapestry of God's grace, mercy and love...Well, it's exquisite.

And this IS a Karen Kingsbury novel, so stock up on tissues!  "Angels Walking" releases September 2nd, so reserve a copy today.  My thanks to my friends at Howard Publishing for my advance copy in exchange for an honest review.  Out of all of Karen's books, I think this one is my favorite.

Happy Reading!
