Brush of Wings
Brush of Wings is the third and final book in the Angels Walking series. We'll finally find the answers to the questions we were left with regarding Mary Catherine and Marcus at the end of Chasing Sunsets.Brush of Wings opens with a meeting of angels in heaven. As with the previous two books in the series, these images have stayed with me. I love the image of angels meeting to discuss how best to help us on earth. This series has been a reminder to me to look for the angels in my life.Mary Catherine is planning a move to Uganda to work at a new orphanage. Despite the fact that she needs a heart transplant. She goes without telling her parents or her best friend. She tells absolutely no one about her condition. This bugged me. An excellent example of pride, I suppose but I would've felt better if she'd told just one person.Mary Catherine is also fighting her feelings for Marcus, the man she never meant to fall in love with. While reading Chasing Sunsets and this book I didn't feel a connection or chemistry between Mary Catherine and Marcus. Their relationship felt rushed and underdeveloped. However, from the beginning I loved Tyler and Sami. I felt a connection with this couple and their relationship felt real.Even though this book didn't grab me as emotionally as the previous two I still enjoyed it. There is a satisfactory ending to each story and this reader appreciates having everything wrapped up.As a fan of Kingsbury's Baxter series I was pleasantly surprised to see a brief appearance by two members of the family.ARC provided by NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

I read the final book in this trilogy. I'm not one for shedding tears when reading but they were near when I read of the love that existed between Mary Catherine and Same and Tyler. It was almost tangible and the lengths they went for each other. Fantastic book

Not usual standard
I didn't think this book was as good as many previous books from Karen. Some of it was quite repetitive. Perhaps this is how the character Mary Katherine thought but it did t make interesting reading - making the plot rather slow.

Another fantastic series by Karen Kingsbury
The Angels walking series was a good reminder of the amazing love of our Father for us and how he puts angels on assignment for us. There are strange occurrences that have happened in my life that can only be miracles orchestrated by the Angelic host. I was so blessed and encouraged by these books. Keep them coming, Karen!

Excellent read
Amazing book I hardly put it down after starting it. A lovely finish to the series. But I would love more angels walking missions. As it reminds me how the lord provides in many tiny steps along the way to make his plan for me unfold.
