Sunrise by Karen Kingsbury


Blurb: Sunrise mainly centered around Dayne and Katy's wedding and trying to keep their plans a secret from the Paparazzi. This starts out the day after thanksgiving and Dayne and Katy are at their new lake house in Bloomington. They work with a wedding planner who specializes in secret weddings, and plan for a March 18th wedding in the Mayan Riviera. Then the producer of an upcoming movie "But Then Again Now" wants to Dayne and Katy to star together in the movie. Katie agrees to go read for the part, and ends up getting the part.
Luke and Regan recently have moved back to Bloomington so Luke work exclusively for Dayne.
Ashley and Kari both announce they are pregnant at Christmas, and both are due in August.
John and Elaine are spending more and more time together. She is invited to the Baxter House on Thanksgiving for Dessert. Ashley is warming up to having Elaine around and Elaine's relationship with her dad, but Ashley still really misses her mom.
Cody, the boy who's living with the Flannigans was found unconscious laying next to an empty bottle of liquor. He wasn't successful. The flannigans rushed him to the hospital, and though he was in a coma for awhile, he did wake up later and recovered. He then announced that he was going to enlist in the army once he finished school. It was during this time that Jim found out that alot of the players on his team had been drinking alcolhol, and he made each of them sign contracts promising they wouldn't drink, and if they did drink they would be kicked off the team.
With her upcoming wedding and movie, Katy decides to pass on the role of CKT Director, over to Rhonda. There is also rumors that seem to threaten the future of CKT. The owners of the theater want to sell it to this developer who would then tear it down and build high-rise condos.
A guy from another CKT Theater group, Chad Jennings, agrees to move to bloomington for the spring and help direct the spring play, Oliver!
Thoughts: I loved this book just like all the others....my only complaint was that I didn't like Rhonda....I thought she was too jealous and insecure. And Bailey got on my nerves some too. But other than that, the book was great!
