Widow's Walk is an electrifying story. I love books that are filled with tender romance and anything with lighthouses. Every beautiful detail in this poignant read is depicted brilliantly. The characters and their conversations along with the whole complete setting really enhance and make it unique. It is such a forceful read that I found myself relating to the characters in many ways. They reach out and touch down to the soul. Lizbeth is such a robust woman and with William she seems to stand even taller. I am so glad that he was an understanding man and not like some of the other citizens in that time frame. Nikki Leigh shapes a book that excels, gives hope and proves, romance is still alive. With her talent she composes a book where this reader visualized everything as if right in the middle of the storm, right down to the slashing waves. Her in-depth writing exhibits Lizbeth's pain and joy throughout the story. She knows how to craft a masterpiece that touches not only the heart but also the soul. With a colorful well-rounded cast of secondary characters and a picturesque setting hard to forget, this reader found this book an absolute breath-taking, gratifying read. It is one that I could read again and again.

Lisbeth is an independent-minded woman - at a time when disregarding decorum set gossip flying and petticoats ruffling. She's engaged to marry her childhood sweetheart, William, who admires and respects her independence. With their wedding a few days away, they look forward to finally getting down to the business of living out their dreams. The October Gale of 1841 changes all that - and sets in motion a series of events that changes Lisbeth, William, and the people of Misty Cove forever.

In the talented hands of author, Nikki Leigh, Widows Walk paints a vivid picture of life in an 1840s Massachusetts fishing village and Lisbeth proves the power of tenacity and unwavering love in overcoming the hardships that women of that period faced. As I read the story, there were times when I could almost hear the wind howl, taste the spray of salt water, and feel William's tender embrace.

I found Widows Walk to be an enchanting, inspirational, heartwarming and heartwrenching journey. If you love a story about a strong woman and a stronger love, don't miss this one.
