Oh, my God, she's GORGEOUS! Wow!
How old was she when she came into your house? They say feral kittens are beyond complete socializing after about 12 weeks, but I haven't any direct experience.
When i was a kid, we had a kitten from a shelter who was quite young, but because he had a bad URI and, um, "digestive" problems for quite a while, my mother wouldn't let us touch him and he lived shut up in the kitcheen for the first month or so. He was very, very attached to us, but we'd definitely missed the period when he could have gotten used to being handled. So he liked being petted, but never, ever sat in a lap voluntarily. He was still a wonderful member of my family growing up, and I adored him. (Don't think he ever nipped anybody even once, though)
