Publisher's Summary

A NEW BEGINNING
Hollywood actor Dayne Matthews and Katy Hart are married and living in Bloomington, Indiana, where Dayne has found a solution to his on-camera love scenes - he wants Katy to star in his next film. Katy wins the part and is cast opposite her super-star husband. The story of a small town girl's dream come true is too much for the press to resist, and in an effort to appease them, the couple agrees to a 12-episode reality show. It seems like the perfect compromise, but by the time they finish filming the movie, they feel cracks around the edges of their marriage. Now they face an uncertain future, and possibly the end of everything that truly matters to them.

AN UNFORGETTABLE SUMMER
The Baxter family learns that Ashley and Kari are both pregnant, but an ultrasound reveals that something is wrong with one of the babies. As the summer progresses, the sisters pray for a miracle while trying to face the unthinkable. It's in this trying season that they must all learn the lesson God has been trying to teach them - He is still in control, and He will be with them regardless of the outcome.

AN EMOTIONAL FAREWELL
The Flanigans continue to draw closer to their only daughter, yet Bailey struggles to find her way amidst the turmoil of adolescence. She has always made good decisions, but she wants to experience more of life. Her friendship with Cody Coleman - the young border staying with the Flanigans - continues to blossom in this summer after his graduation. But when Cody decides to enlist in the Army, he'll have to say goodbye to the family he's come to love and the girl he'll never forget.

Life no matter how long is to be lived and celebrated with joy and tears.

The Baxter Family series has really moved my heart closer to Jesus. Many times as I listened I paused for tears and heartfelt prayers. My desire for God and the Bible and prayer has grown deeper with each book. In this season of Summer all the Baxters faced challenges that tested their faith and relationships and one tiny life, ever brief was Sarah’s time, made a huge impact on so many lives. Seeing Landon and Ashley deepen their faith and accept God’s will encourages us all to accept the things we cannot change with a peace and joy that God works out all things according to His will. His love knows no bounds. I love how the Baxters come together in good and bad times with faith, prayer, scripture and song. Great is thy faithfulness is one of my favourite hymns and becoming my go-to in times of trouble.
