    About this audiobook

    A long-awaited celebration

    In preparation for their wedding day, Dayne Matthews and Katy Hart are determined to keep the ceremony a secret from the paparazzi. Their relationship grows closer and stronger as they plan together, but before the wedding, Katy and Dayne face what may be their greatest challenge. Is it possible for Katy to find a place in Dayne’s world? Or could the pressures of fame rip away everything they’ve fought to find together?

    A renewed hope

    John Baxter is thrilled that his oldest son will settle down a few miles away, but he isn’t sure how any of his kids will handle a situation he can no longer run from - the feelings he’s having for his friend Elaine. Amid wedding plans and other family news, John feels the hope of a breathtaking sunrise for the first time since Elizabeth’s death.

    A terrible tragedy

    Meanwhile, the Flanigan family is struggling with their young boarder, Cody Coleman, the star receiver on Jim Flanigan’s football team. After an alcohol overdose, Cody fights for his life. Only God’s grace and a miracle can bring him back from the brink of death - and bring Jim’s distraught team together again.

      The door bangs, the house trembles, I hold my breath: Bridezilla is home. My son coined the phrase and normally I try to minimise teasing between my children (a lifetime’s habit, a lifetime’s work) but frankly, I agree with him. A blood-curdling scre

      This series picks up right where the previous series leaves off. Although there are many smaller plots going on in the lives of several different people in the book, it mainly deals with Katy an Dayne Matthews and their approaching wedding. My favorite part was the very end and how their wedding all came together. WOW! Couldn't anyone ask for a better wedding. It was perfect!

      Ick. Just ick.I've read a lot of Karen Kingsbury's books. Lots and lots. Then I got to this one. I have a specific problem with this book. Luke and Reagan decide to take a parenting class through their church called "Growing Kids God's Way".Disgusting. Gary Ezzo is horrible. Fictional characters should not be singing the praises of this man. Nor should real people for that matter. I will never read another book she writes again.

      Everything about this book is great. I love Dayne. So happy for John
