About this audiobook
The Baxters is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Roma Downey and Ted McGinley.
A story of tenacious love and longing for a lost son, from Karen Kingsbury, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of “heart-tugging and emotional” (Romantic Times) life-changing fiction, co-authored with Gary Smalley.
A Shattered Relationship
Luke, the Baxter family’s golden boy and only son, has walked away from everything that mattered most to him: his faith, his family, and Reagan, his only love. Devastated by the events of September 11, 2001, Luke decides that life is random, faith a fraud, and God a fantasy.
A Secret
A baby is about to be born, but with Reagan a thousand miles away in New York City, Luke has no idea he’s the father. Now, though, someone in his family learns the truth. But she has a secret of her own, one that will change the Baxters’ lives forever.
A Revelation
What will it take for Luke to return to the family who loves and aches for him? And what extremes will a certain young firefighter take to help bring the Baxters together again, and in the process, find his place in the family?
This touching novel in the bestselling Christian fiction series reunites readers with the Baxter family and focuses on the only Baxter son, Luke. He is determined to leave his faith and his past behind and embrace a new, free-thinking future. But what he doesn’t realize is that his past holds a secret even he doesn’t know. When Luke finds out, his comfortable new life is turned upside-down, and he must turn back to his roots.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Love it love the backsters hope I can find me a Christian man
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Dayne Matthews returns to Bloomington, Indiana to be with Katy Hart and his biological family.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I would highly recommend this book. It made me laugh, but most of all it was very heartwarming, and if I’m honest it sent me on a two hour crying spree. It was just a great book about a family coming together with help from God in life’s hardest trials. This was a story of unfaithfulness, hard decisions, and finding hope.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I LOVE the book, BUT the audiobook leaves out parts of the book. I’m new to audiobooks, so maybe that’s a common thing, but I do not like it...at all! I don’t want to miss any part of the story and the audiobook omits too much.
