Customer Reviews

A great combination of history and romance......

"She would most certainly always love Alex,.....but with Charlie, it had been love at first sight...." Imagine yourself as a sixteen year old girl, living during the Civil War, and having two beaux (boyfriends). Your only confidant, a journal. Pretty tough life! One minute, everything is fine, the next, life isn't worth living. That's how Becca, from Becca's Story felt. Becca likes her life the way it is, but when the war breaks out, she knows life will never be the same. Because she hints they should support their country, both of her beaux, Alex and Charlie, join the army. She feels she is now responsible for what happens to either of them. Before they part, both Alex and Charlie ask for her hand in marriage. Becca loves both of them equally, but she must make a decision before, or if, they come back. I believe this is a very interesting book. Forman did a great job combining history with a love story. Although there was a bit too much history, this really is a great book.

A nice old time story

I like it. The old time, Civil War story. The letter that went back and forth among Becca and the two guy was so lovely. I reccommended this one to anyone that enjoin old time book.
