Kat may be new in her faith, but she's embraced the more radical implications of Christianity with reckless abandon. She invited Rochelle--a homeless mother--and her son to move in the apartment she shares with two other housemates. And she's finally found a practical way to channel her passion for healthy eating by starting a food pantry at the church.

Her feelings for Nick are getting harder to ignore. The fact that he's the interning pastor at SouledOut Community Church and one of her housemates makes it complicated enough. But with Rochelle showing interest in Nick as a father-figure for her son, their apartment is feeling way too small.

It's ridiculous how long time this book has been standing on my shelves. I LOVE Neta Jackson's books, so anybody would expect me to pick them up right away! But come to think of it, that's actually probably the problem... I have such high expectations of them, that I'm afraid they can't live up to them.

But I finally manned up and picked up the book yesterday... and of course I ended up reading it in no time flat, just like the rest of her books :) True, it doesn't quite live up to the level set by the Yada Yada series, but then none of her later books have, so I wasn't really expecting it to. I wasn't too fond of Kat in the beginning of the book, but she grew on me, as she grew in her walk as a Christian. And as always, it made me long for a church like the SouledOut church.

I wonder if this is the last in the series though? It did seem rather "wrapped up"...
