A Walk in Heaven

The Grayson Brothers, Book 1

By: Marie Higgins

Narrated by: Leonor A. Woodworth

In the early hours of the morning, Careen becomes Matthew Grayson's wife--and then, in a blink of an eye, his widow. How can she tell the family she’s never met that her own cousin is responsible for their son’s death? While she waits for the right moment to admit the cousin's guilt, a budding attraction grows between Careen and her new brother-in-law, Joshua. But this will only complicate matters, especially when the truth finally comes out.

Joshua Grayson could never understand why his brother left the family ranch to wed--in secret--a woman he'd never met. And now Matthew is dead. Killed just moments after taking his wedding vows. Joshua struggles with both resentment and a growing attraction for his mysterious sister-in-law. He knows Careen is hiding something, but can he give love another chance, or is he just setting up his heart for another break?

Amazingly good Storytelling

When I finished this book I wondered if it was categorized incorrectly? When I read ‘clean’ book I usually translate into something other than I got out of this book. Don’t get me wrong. It is not raunchy. However, the book managed to convey the deep passion and love between the two main characters Careen and Joshua. There were numerous mentions of their faith and strong belief in God but it was done in an ordinary manner that seemed very normal to me. It was great story telling that took the listener on an exciting journey.

It starts out with a bang. Careen’s husband Matthew was shot in broad daylight shortly after their wedding. You quickly get into the fast paced, action packed story. I was alert and excited all the way through. Firstly, you know there is going to be trouble when she fails to tell her in-laws the full truth about the circumstances surrounding the death of her husband. There is a deep attraction between her and her dead husband brother Joshua from the start. However, it is uncertain if Joshua can find the strength to move on after the scars left by his dead wife and grasp their love. It gets even more complicated as they weave their courtship through the morning period proprieties. There were descriptions of intimate, passionate kissing. It was absolute delight to feel the magic of their budding love for each and await the next surprise. There were many twist and turns.

I love narrator of this book simply because she does what she is supposed to do. You forget about her and she does not take over the performance and become tiresome. The Southern accent was a nice change of pace and the kids voices were well done.

This is worth a credit and I highly recommend this book. I can’t wait for the next one in the series. I hope there is more.

**I was given a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review

This is my first Marie Higgins book, but definitely will not be my last. From the very start, I knew this was going to be one I couldn't take my earbuds out for! Not only was it a great western cowboy romance, but it had suspense as well! My kind of book! From the first scene with Matthew and Careen to the end with Joshua, I just had to keep listening. The characters are well developed, the relationship between Careen and Joshua was frustrating and fun, between Careen and the rest of the family was heartwarming. You couldn't help but just want to move onto the ranch and be a part of it! Their acceptance of Careen, love they showed and protectiveness from her cousin just made you fall in love with them.

This is not my first Leonor A Woodworth narration...she was amazing in Anne Patrick's "A Familiar Evil". Definitely one of my favorite narrators, brings all the characters to life, easy to tell who is speaking and makes the books so I don't want to put them down!

I am looking forward to my next listen of Marie Higgins!
