Publisher's summary

From number-one New York Times best-selling author Karen Kingsbury comes a brand-new love story in the Baxter Family collection about two people who lost their parents in the same national tragedy - two people desperate to find each other and the connection they shared for a single day...a day that changed everything.

Brady Bradshaw was a child when the Oklahoma City bombing killed his mother. Every year, Brady visits the memorial site on the anniversary to remember her. A decade ago on that day, he met Jenna Phillips, who was also a child when her parents were killed in the attack. Brady and Jenna shared a deep heart connection and a single beautiful day together at the memorial. But after that, Brady never saw Jenna again. Every year when he returns, he leaves a note for her in hopes that he might find her again.

This year, Ashley Baxter Blake and her sister Kari Ryan and their families take a spring break trip that includes a visit to the site to see the memorial's famous Survivor Tree. While there, Ashley spots a young man, alone and troubled. That man is Brady Bradshaw. A chance moment leads Ashley to help Brady find Jenna, the girl he can't forget.

Ashley's family is skeptical, but she pushes them to support her efforts to find the girl and bring them together. But will it work? Will her husband, Landon, understand her intentions? And is a shared heartache enough reason to fall in love?

Deeply emotional and beautifully romantic, To the Moon and Back is an unlikely love story about healing, redemption, hope and the belief that sometimes a new tomorrow can grow from the ashes of a shattered yesterday.

She’s done it again!

What an amazing story! Definitely a Kingsbury! The readers were awesome! I have read most all of her books, how I wish I could meet the family.. oh wait, they are fictitious.🥺

Great Storyline

I highly recommend this book to everyone! It's a great story about trials and tribulations that we go through in life, and how we may not understand why bad things happen to good people. It also shows how our faith and trust can be tested.

Love, LoVe, LOVE!

There is on my one thing I don't like about Karen Kingsbury books, once I start one I can't put it down until I'm finished with it.

I pray that one day all her books will become movies, even friends of Jesus... wouldn't it be amazing if she could collaborate with Dallas Jenkins the writer of The CHOSEN.

Good read

I always like Karen Kingsbury books. she has a way of writing about heartache and overcoming things by faith. The story stalled in a few places. But, eventually picked up.
