Mercy House by Alena Dillon

Sassy Sister Evelyn and a handful of other nuns run an unorthodox home in Brooklyn where they serve the abused, lost and very worthy women of the area. Sister Evelyn is a force to be reconded with and has quietly been avoiding sharing her methods with the mother church. Suddenly, a priest from her past with all the authority she doesn't have comes to investigate and Mercy House is on the chopping block. It will take everything the sisters have in their arsenal to survive. Thank God there are nuns like Sister Evelyn out there. Her spunk, kindness and hound-dog tenacity will have you shouting Hallelujah! Devout Catholics may find fault with her methods and with the storyline but this is a story that is a long time coming.
