What was she thinking? Katie Weldon wonders if she was crazy to spontaneously fly off to Africa on a mission trip. Suddenly she is dealing with a new culture, a world she's never experienced---and Eli, a friend who is quickly becoming much more. It's all overwhelming ... and exciting. As her life turns topsy-turvy, however, she begins to think this might be exactly what she needs. Here, God might give her a glimpse into His will for her life. But just as Kenya and its people find a place in her heart, and her relationship with Eli begins to get serious, Katie is faced with unanswered questions from her past and unresolved issues with Eli. Is she really headed down the same path into the future he is? It doesn't look like it. Why can't she finally and forever settle into a set direction? Living in this new and captivating place, one thing she knows for sure: anything might be possible. Finally and Forever is the final book in the Katie Weldon Series.

This is the first book in the Katie Weldon series that I have read, and I had no trouble picking up the book and reading straight through. This could be a stand alone book by itself, so if you haven't read the previous books, don't worry!
I enjoyed reading this book overall. I thought the pace was a bit slow in some parts, but I think that was kind of the point. Katie travels to Africa and realizes that life isn't all about the hustle and bustle there like it is in the USA. I liked how Katie and Eli were taking things slow in their relationship, and not rushing into anything (though a few times I wish they would've kisses, hee hee). The overall message of the book came through really strong though. Letting God guide your life isn't easy to do, but when you do it, things tend to work out better than you could ever have imagined!
Like I mentioned before, I haven't read the previous books in the series, but this book is a great stand alone. A sweet contemporary that stars good role models for both girls and boys.
