As soon as I finished No Other, book one of this series by Shawna Williams, I instantly started In All Things.  I went in to reading In All Things with a huge smile on my face; I was so happy that things worked out with Jakob and Meri and I couldn't wait to read more about their amazing love journey.  I expected things to get a little rough for the couple once they pursued Meri's dream of becoming an actress but it was still hard to read.Now that the family has moved to California they face all kinds of obsticals and tough roads.  Again I was amazed at the way Shawna illustrated her characters.  They are so deep and realistic, there is no hiding behind this perfect life, they struggle and their struggles are hard and difficult to read but I was so drawn in to them and so invested I couldn't get enough! There was times I just wanted to scream at the book and yell "stop listening to these lies"!! Heartbreaking!!!One of my favorite things about this book and this series is Jakob.  He is so amazing in my opinion.  He isn't perfect by any means but he is passionate and caring and not afraid to take a challenge.  I loved the part of the book where he decides to try to be a better husband, all his emotions and thought were so passionate, I just wanted to hug him!I also was amazed at how much In All Things reminded me of lessons I've learned but often forget.  For example we see how much other people can manipulate us if we let them and also how easy it is to stray from what we believe in when we put ourselves in tempting situations!!Great story, dynamic characters, very thought-provoking!! Loved it!! On to book three!!Content: I consider this Edgy Christian Fiction so I believe it's for more of a mature audience.I received a copy of this book free from the author in exchange for my honest review!! All opinions are my own!
