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.

    Really enjoyed the story and characters so far, but either the audiobook quality or the app made for a bit of a frustrating listen. The last few words of several chapters can't be heard due to the premature chapter announcement for the next chapter. There was also quite a bit of a fully downloaded book stopping the way you'd expect from lagging in a streamed book. Other than that some spots in the story seem a little predictable, but still greatly enjoyed.

    Best writer ever. Loved this book in so many ways cost me to reflect on some of my relationships in the past on some of the things I did, and most of all confirm God’s voice to me he’s there.
