Description

In the High Country, Heaven is closer than they know...

After fighting to overcome her mother’s abandonment, Avery Miles is thrilled to be working at a nature center in her beloved Colorado Rockies. But when her younger sister, Addisyn, begins revisiting their past, Avery’s struggle with anxiety returns—especially as Addisyn comes dangerously close to the secret Avery kept to protect her. And Avery’s problems worsen when she’s forced to work alongside the creative—and cocky—YouTuber Creed Running Wolf on a conservation project with a surprising link to her own past. Now, Avery is caught between Addisyn’s search for the truth and the anxiety that’s becoming harder to hide…and the only answer lies in the town she ran from years ago.

Creed Running Wolf has always been fascinated by the Lakota concept of kapemni—a doorway between Heaven and Earth. If that doorway exists, he’s sure it’s not in Colorado, the place he never wanted to see again. However, as he learns Avery’s story, he begins to hope he can still rewrite his own—especially as he and Avery find common ground. But when the past resurfaces and his friendship with Avery is shattered, they will both have to face everything they’ve tried to escape—and discover once and for all what would truly bridge Heaven and Earth.

Captivating and compelling, Between Heaven and Earth is an honest yet hopeful look at the stories we tell, the secrets we keep, and the healing power of forgiveness.

Advance Praise

"In Between Heaven and Earth, Ashlyn McKayla Ohm anchors her story in the rugged Colorado Mountains, where the natural world reflects characters’ inner landscapes of struggle and hope. Ohm’s prose is beautiful, both in its crafting and content. Her seamless melding of Native symbolism with Christian themes of grace and redemption offer a banquet for readers’ hearts and minds. And her settings? Glorious. I enjoyed every page."

~ Cheryl Bostrom, Carol Award-winning author of Sugar Birds and What the River Keeps


"Between Heaven and Earth is a beautifully-written, lyrical story set in the Colorado mountains at a bird rescue center. Ohm's well-crafted prose immediately drew me in and easily swept me into the picturesque setting and the characters' messy lives. You will root for Avery and Addisyn, two sisters who fiercely love and protect each other and work toward overcoming anxiety, family secrets, and a heart-wrenching childhood. You'll cheer just as much for YouTuber, Creed Running Wolf, as he muddles his way through a broken past toward a life of redemption and reconciliation. The author seamlessly marries Native American culture with timeless spiritual truths that take us on a wonderful journey through hardship and struggle to a place of forgiveness and healing. This story is a wonderful reminder of how Heaven meets the Earth in our everyday lives. I highly recommend this read to those who enjoy gritty stories with real life issues set in a rugged and beautiful landscape, and I wholeheartedly offer my endorsement."
