Peculiar Treasures ~ Robin Jones Gunn




















Being the maid-of-honor for her best friend, Christy’s, wedding, was one of the best moments in Katie Weldon’s life. And she catches more than just the bouquet at that wedding. She receives an offer that will be the beginning of a completely new phase in her life; one that just might point her in the direction she’s been searching for.

Katie is a senior in college and has changed her major multiple times. She just can’t seem to find the right fit. She calls it her “major dilemma.”

But becoming the new Resident Assistant at her college has provided her with more than just something to do. The new friendships with her Resident Director, Julie, and partner RA (resident assistant), Nicole have her provided her with what she feared she’d been missing when her best friend Christy finished college.

Through the help of Julie, Katie is able to truly forgive her parents for all the pain in her childhood and learn to rely on God and find her identity in Him. And when she does that her future is made clear.
But there’s still one problem: that of her almost- boyfriend Rick. He seems to be content in the relationship they have, while she is ready for the next level of commitment. Also, through a series of events, Katie finds that she doesn’t trust Rick as much as she thought, because of her under-lying pain. Will Katie be able to forgive and forget, like she did with her parents? Or will her in-ability to trust, tear her and Rick apart forever? 

Did you know that Michelle's style is a mix of vintage, romantic, bohemian, whimsical and professional?!
