I love Karen Kingsbury. She is probably my favorite Christian fiction author. I especially love the Baxtar Family Dramas. They consist of many books, and I just read the last Baxter book, Sunset. Most of the series in the Baxtar Dramas have a central theme. The biggest theme that is recurring is REDEMPTION. There are also [...]
