Angel Falls

Liam and Michaela Campbell have the ideal family and marriage, nestled within the slopes of Washington state's Northern Cascade Mountains. Mike looks after their two kids and her loves horses, while Liam enjoys the perks of being a small-town doctor with a long family history. However, when a terrible tragedy puts Mike in a coma, Liam tries in vain to jog her memory and bring her back to consciousness. After learning that Mike had a hidden history as "Kayla" and had previously married her first love, Julian True, he begins to doubt the basis of their relationship. Even though he's still unconscious, Mike reacts to these tales. Liam is aware that he has to get in touch with Julian in order to risk his future on the recollections of a lady whose actual identity and emotions are unknown to him.

Last year's On Mystic Lake became a bestseller because to Kristin Hannah's skill at crafting compelling stories about identity, responsibility, passion, and familial ties. This time around, her brilliance will undoubtedly win even more readers. (Consider Danielle Steel without the aged CEOs of corporations or the Gucci purses.) Though our heroine is unconscious for much of the book and is carried about on a hospital gurney, Hannah does a fantastic job bringing Mike to life, and Liam's unwavering love should have you cheering for him and reaching for the tissues. —R.E.
