    I never imagined The Preacher's Kid would turn into a series--but then I never imagined a secondary character would become so well-liked by my readers.

    The third book in this series is all about Nate Hamilton, the lovable and amazing younger brother of Eddie, the subject of the first two books. In the first two books, we saw the amazing part of Nate beginning with the filming and posting of the promposal and through the creation of his "Cancer Sucks" vlog. We saw Nate's incredible heart during the week-long day-camp with Eddie and Matty.
