Review "Aiden Snow once again did a great job narrating the audiobook." ---Kindles & Wine Book Blog From the Author The Callaghan Brothers is a series, but I hold to my promise: no cliffhangers, ever. Each book is a story in itself, and focuses on a different Callaghan brother. You don't need to read book 1 to read book 2. The books are in chronological order, though (i.e., book 2 happens after book 1), so there are references in later releases to things that occurred in earlier books.
