Becoming Bea by Leslie Gould ~ Litfuse Tour & Review

Becoming Bea (The Courtships of Lancaster County, #4)Lucie's Review: 


A charming coming of age tale that tugs at the heartstrings. 

Bea get's a job as a nanny to a couple with triplets along with her friend, Hope. While working with the children she finds that she has a gift for taking care of children and words. And then there is Ben Rupp who loves to tease her just to see what she will do. But as their friendship grows into something more, conclusions are jumped to and everything might just be simpler than it seems.

Bea matures so much over the course of this book, finally getting out from behind her sister's shadow and discovering her own gifts and talents. There are so many wonderful characters, and relationships in this book, and it catches up with previous characters and their growing families.

Well written, with a captivating charm and memorable characters. This is a fun well paced read, with a great heroine, I really like Bea and how she learned so much while working as a nanny.

Overall, this was a tale of romance, miscommunication, conclusions, and humor.
