Leaving - Audiobook (Unabridged)

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury, known for her heart-stirring stories of faith and family, comes the first book in the Bailey Flanigan series--an inspiring novel of love, loss, and the moments that change us forever. Perfect for fans of Janette Oke.

Bailey Flanigan is finally leaving her small-town home of Bloomington, Indiana, for the adventure of a lifetime: she has gotten a part in a Broadway musical in New York City. She's determined to take advantage of this unbelievable opportunity, but is she really ready to leave family and friends for the loneliness of the big city? And what about Cody, her former boyfriend? His disappearance has her worried about their future and praying that their love can survive.

Cody has been struggling with his own problems. In order to be closer to his mother, who's in prison for a drug charge, Cody takes a coaching job in a small community outside Indianapolis. New friends, distance, and circumstances expose cracks in his relationship with Bailey.

Love, loneliness, big opportunities, and even bigger decisions put these two young people to the test in the first book in the Bailey Flanigan series. Featuring members of the popular Baxter family from bestselling author Karen Kingsbury's beloved Redemption series, discover what's in store for Bailey and Cody.

Library Journal praises Leaving as "emotionally charged" with "well-drawn characters struggling with their faith," while CBA Retailers and Resources calls it "another Kingsbury hit" filled with "hometown stories and the different kinds of 'leaving' that occur in life."
