Mikaela falls from her horse and is in a coma. Her husband Liam, a doctor, is in charge of the family and children along with his mother-in-law Rosa. When nothing else seems to work, he makes a call to Mikaels's first husband, a famous, sexy, good looking, first love of her life movie star named Julian True. His voice brings her out of her coma. She has no memory of her life with Liam or her children. Over time, she regains her memory and remembers her deep love for Liam and her family. Forever, she promises him as they trim the Christmas tree. Enjoyed this book very much. A good read for a rainy day with no interruptions.

A wonderful read!

Mikaela (Mica) Campbell is thrown from a horse and is so seriously injured that she falls into a long-term coma. Mica's husband, Dr. Liam Campbell, is left to care for their children. While sitting by Mica's hospital bed, willing her to recover, Liam talks endlessly to her. He recreates their life together through their shared history.

Inadvertently, Liam discovers the identity of Mica's first husband and father to her first child. Julian is a 'huge' movie star who was the love of her life. Julian, a shallow man, is convinced that he may be the person who is able to bring Mica out of her coma and agrees to travel to her bedside. Mica emerges from the coma, and what happens then is what helps her look at life through different 'colored' glasses.

Angel Falls is a family drama about how tragedy impacts the individual members and how they rise to the occasion and pull together. And it is about a loving, gentle husband who deeply loves his wife and will do what is necessary to help her recover; even if it means he might lose her.

Hannah's characters are richly drawn and the plot is compelling. It is a book you will enjoy and I guarantee that you will recommend it to others.

Armchair Interviews highly recommends Angel Falls.

Kristin Hannah is good.

I have read several of Kristin Hannah's books, and have enjoyed each one of them. Her relationships are thoroughly developed, and her story progresses nicely, keeping your interest through some mystery.

A Touching Story

This book brings Mikayla's life into the open. She is a loving wife with two children and known throughout the small town of Angel Falls. She suffers from a head injury and goes into a coma. Her husband sits with her, talking and singing, bringing her flowers, doing everything he can to wake her. The only word she says is "Jules" and her husband figures out, with the help of her mother and a dress he found in her closet, that she was once married to movie star Julian True. At the end of his ideas, he calls Julian, hoping he will remember her and come to visit her and be able to awake her. The family is tested as Mikayla has to choose which life she will return to and where her love and loyalty lie. Her husband's love never ceases and he put himself on the line for her, but will it end in her leaving him behind?

Angel Falls by Kristin Hannah

This is the first novel I've read by this author, and I'm on Amazon right now searching for more of her books! On one hand, I agree with some viewers that this was a light read, but on the other hand, it was also emotionally intriging. I have never cried while reading a book, but I did so at the beginning AND at that end of this novel! What a great story -- I couldn't put it down. You are rooting for the main couple in this book from start to finish, and your heart just goes out to the children in the story. I can't say enough good things about Ms. Hannah's writing. I'm certainly a dedicated fan now.

When Mikaela Campbell, beloved wife and mother of two, falls into a coma, it is up to her husband, Liam, to hold the family together, to care for their grieving, frightened children. Day after day, he sits by her bedside, telling stories of the precious life they have built, hoping, always hoping, that she will wake up. Then he discovers evidence of her secret past: a hidden first marriage to Julian True, a man no woman could resist . . . or forget. Desperate to bring Mikaela back at any cost, Liam turns to the one person who could make her respond? and who could take her out of his arms forever.

ANGEL FALLS is a moving portrayal of marriage and commitment, and of an ordinary man who risks everything in the name of love.
