Becky's contemporary is a side step from her usual American Historical novels, but don't let it stop you from reading. Blame it on the Brontes is a quick read filled with love, hate, misunderstanding, redemption and reconciliation. For 18 years two of the 3 sisters have been at each other's throats, while the third must be the arbitrator. After their mother's death and the restrictions she puts on their lives, they must live together or lose their sizable inheritance. The truth comes out about the original dispute and the girls slowly piece their lives together.Each of the three sections is in a different sister's POV, so the reader becomes aware of the changes each must go through to obtain the goal set out by their mother. Total reconciliation. Their lives together are not easy nor are the relationships they have with the men that enter their world.Becky does a great job with her characters too. You, the reader, develop strong feelings for what they have and must continue to go through. The males each have a completely different personality and fit into the coastal town of Puffin Bay. You fall a little in love with each of them. Hey, isn't that why we read?Give Blame it on the Brontes a try, you won't be disappointed.
