The Baxters by Karen Kingsbury

The Baxters story is a prequel to all the other 30 plus novels Karen Kingsbury has written on the Baxter family. This is a good book to read to refresh your memory on the early days of the Baxter or for the new reader who may not want to read every single novel. In this book we see Kari getting married. Her mother, Elizabeth has reservations and rightly so. If you read the first book in the series you will find out why. Kari marries Tim Taylor when deep down she is still in love with her first love Ryan but she will not admit it. She broke up with him because she thinks he cheated on her. The story also focuses on Ashley Baxter who has come back from Parish pregnant by a married man. I loved how most of her fa
mily particularly her parents supported her and did not judge her. That's the way families should work.

Thanks for the publisher and Netgalley for providing me a digital copy of this book to read and review. All opinions are my own.
