The Baxter Family is Karen Kingsbury’s continuation of her long-running family saga, picking up where earlier series like Firstborn and Sunrise left off. A Baxter Family Christmas (2016) launches this phase, followed by Love Story (2017) and In This Moment (2017), which explore the lives of both the original Baxter parents and their grown children.
The series spans eleven books through The Baxters Devotional (2024), with entries like To the Moon and Back (2018) and Forgiving Paris (2021) tackling adoption, past trauma, and reconciliation. The Baxters: A Prequel (2022) reaches back to fill in the family’s origin story. This series ties together threads from across Kingsbury’s connected novels, making it both accessible to new readers and rewarding for long-time fans.
