Een mooie afsluiter van de Matthews serie al vond ik de Baxter serie die hiervoor komt mooier en ingrijpender.
Toch zijn en blijven het personages die je in je hart sluit en niet meer zal vergeten.
Soms een beetje te veel bijbelse stukjes maar ach ook dat nemen we gewoon mee in het verhaal.
Wow! Umm, I’m sad to be finishing this series and am excited to start the next but this was some ending to the Firstborn series. I did not expect everything that happened in this conclusion to happen.

Seeing the characters grow closer and some drift further apart was sweet and sad.
The accident was dreadful but the ending was perfect!
Seeing Dayne, Katy, and all of the others in this book was wonderful. They came together and built a stronger family than before.
I did enjoy this book; however, I thought it was kinda slow in places. It didn't draw me in like the other books in the series.
The Paparazzi causes a huge accident leaving Dayne fighting for his life. Ashley, her Dad and Katy fly out to LA to be with Dayne.
This last book of the firstborn series deals with family pulling together during trying times, dedication and faith.
This was a great ending to a great series! You have to read it to see what happens to Dayne in this story and how his tragedy brings the family together getting Katy and Dayne's house ready in Bloomington. Luke the brother has to come to terms with issues in his life too. You will read this series and feel like you know this family personally!!
