It has been a full twenty years since I first delved into this remarkable series. Time has passed, but my love for it has only grown stronger.


As I revisit these pages, it's like embarking on a familiar yet exciting journey. The characters, the storylines, and the vivid worlds within the books all come alive once again.


Each turn of the page brings a new wave of emotions and discoveries. I find myself completely immersed in the narrative, forgetting about the outside world.


This series has truly stood the test of time for me. It's not just a collection of books; it's a source of joy, inspiration, and countless memories.


I am so grateful to have had this series in my life, and I look forward to many more rereads in the future.

With each book I read in the series, I find myself getting more and more deeply hooked.

Even though I am fully aware that it is all fictional, there is still something incredibly refreshing and uplifting about delving into stories that revolve around love and have God at the center of it all.

The way these books present love and the role of God is truly captivating. It makes me feel a sense of warmth and hope within.

I absolutely love the messages that these books convey to the readers. They offer valuable insights and teachings that can have a profound impact on one's life.

Whether it's about the power of forgiveness, the importance of faith, or the beauty of true love, these messages resonate with me on a deep level.

Reading these books has become a source of inspiration and comfort for me, and I can't wait to see what new adventures and lessons the next book in the series will bring.

The subject of the trial, which I was trying hard not to give away, was truly a worst nightmare. It was extremely difficult for me to continue listening without getting overly emotional.

However, this is a fantastic book. It is refreshing and nice to witness a real life ending rather than the typical scenarios that sometimes occur in Christian books. The authenticity and rawness of the story make it all the more captivating.

It forces the reader to face the harsh realities of life and yet, there is still a glimmer of hope and a sense of resolution. The author has done a remarkable job of presenting a story that is both engaging and thought-provoking.

Overall, it is a book that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good read that goes beyond the ordinary.

I could never have imagined that I would like this book even more than the previous three.

This story truly touched me on a profound level, especially as a mother.

When you start reading it, you will automatically find yourself asking the question, “What would I do if this happened to my child…”

The story is heart wrenching, filled with moments that will make your heart ache.

However, it is also incredibly uplifting and hopeful.

It shows that even in the face of great difficulties and challenges, there is always a glimmer of hope and the possibility of a better outcome.

The characters in the book are well-developed and their emotions are palpable, making it easy for the reader to empathize with them.

Overall, this is a must-read book that will leave you with a lot to think about and a sense of inspiration.

I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good story that combines drama, emotion, and hope.

I have a deep affection for the Baxter family storyline.

At times, I find that there are an abundance of emotions that are overly explained. However, when looking at the big picture, I truly enjoy the family story as a whole.

The Baxter family represents a complex web of relationships, filled with love, conflicts, and growth. Their storylines offer a glimpse into the joys and challenges of family life.

Despite the occasional overexplanation, it allows for a more in-depth exploration of the characters' emotions and motives. This, in turn, makes the family story more engaging and relatable.

Each member of the Baxter family has their own unique personality and struggles, which adds depth and authenticity to the narrative.

I look forward to following their journey and seeing how their relationships evolve over time.

The Baxter family storyline is a captivating and enjoyable aspect of the overall narrative.

I have this feeling that I should simply give the entire series a 5-star rating immediately, even before I've actually read the books.

Probably my least favorite in the series so far. Ashley's hesitation in saying yes to Landon and finally getting married seemed to drag on forever. It was almost exasperating. I mean, come on! Did we really need to stretch this out to such an extent?


Moreover, Peter's redemption story felt rather odd. It didn't seem all that distinct from how Tim's story played out. There was a lack of freshness and originality in it.


Anyway, despite my disappointments with this installment, I'm still going to persevere and keep reading. I'm hoping that the next book in the series will be a significant improvement. Maybe it will offer more engaging plotlines, more developed characters, and a more satisfying overall experience. Fingers crossed!

This novel delves deep into Haley's accident and the profound reactions of her parents as they struggle to come to terms with the aftermath.

Peter and Brooke, unfortunately, decide to separate, and Peter's subsequent choices prove to be life-threatening.

In this particular installment, an interesting turn of events occurs as not only does God communicate with Peter, but Satan also makes an appearance. However, in the end, goodness prevails over evil, and the extended Baxter family comes together in a show of solidarity to offer their unwavering support.

The patients in the Alzheimer's ward continue to be the most captivating characters, adding an element of depth and poignancy to the story.

This thrilling soap opera will reach its conclusion in the next installment, leaving readers on the edge of their seats, eager to discover what lies ahead for the characters.

I am a huge fan of Karen Kingsley.

Recently, I discovered that book #4 of The Redemption series is my absolute favorite.

The way all the diverse characters in their family confronted various trials with unwavering faith was truly inspiring.

I became so deeply involved with the characters that I felt as if I was a part of their lives.

Initially, I had planned to read something different next.

However, after experiencing the magic of book #4, now I have an intense desire to read Reunion, which is book #5 of the series.

I am extremely glad that Karen Kingsley writes a plethora of books.

This not only provides me with a wide range of reading materials but also makes me extremely happy.

Another excellent book from Karen.

This novel truly stands out as it delves deep into the lives of Brooke and Peter after the pool party. It beautifully weaves together all the heartbreaks and heart-warming stories that have become a hallmark of the series.

Karen's writing is refreshingly honest, allowing readers to fully immerse themselves in the characters' emotions and experiences.

We can feel Brooke's pain and confusion as she navigates through her complicated relationship with Peter. At the same time, we are touched by the moments of tenderness and love that they share.

The story is filled with twists and turns that keep us on the edge of our seats, eagerly turning the pages to find out what will happen next.

Thank you, Karen, for your remarkable talent and for sharing these wonderful stories with us.

This is my least favorite book in the series. The story progression felt a bit sluggish for my taste. The family experiences yet another tragedy, but at the same time, they find joy and celebration with other family members. I pushed forward to book #5, which I began reading before I had the opportunity to write this review. So far, I'm enjoying it more than this particular installment. Overall, I would highly recommend reading the entire series. It's a captivating journey that takes you through the lives and experiences of the characters. Each book builds on the previous one, adding depth and complexity to the story. Despite this being my least favorite, it still has its merits and contributes to the overall narrative. I'm excited to see where the series will lead in the remaining books.

The Baxter series has come to a truly great ending.

It's such a pity that it has to end. I have this amazing feeling that these characters are not just fictional but seem extremely real to me.

I find myself so deeply attached to them that I truly want to follow their lives for the rest of my days.

The author has done an outstanding job of creating these characters and their stories in such a vivid and engaging way that it's hard to let go.

Every moment spent with the Baxter family has been a pleasure, and I will surely miss them.

Despite the ending, I know that the memories of this wonderful series will stay with me forever.

I can't wait to see what the author has in store for us next.

Maybe there will be more stories about the Baxter family or new characters that will capture my heart just as much.

Until then, I will continue to cherish the Baxter series and recommend it to anyone who loves a good story.
