Hetty Locklear is the perfect heroine for anyone who has ever felt like a misfit. Awkward and clumsy, Hetty worries about her weight, hates what she sees in the mirror, and feels completely unlovable. She wants her life to change after her graduation from the local community college, but has no idea how to make that happen.As Hetty struggles to become the adult she wants to be, her life does begin to change in ways she never could have imagined. She meets a gorgeous guy who stuns her with his interest in her, deals with the parents who left her years ago to work in traveling Renaissance fairs, and even ends up haunted by her own personal ghost. It's impossible not to root for Hetty as she learns to navigate the changing landscape of her world and is faced with things she never could have dreamed existed.The supporting characters in the book are just as strong as Hetty, with special mention going to her best friends and roommates Raspberry and Maisey. The relationship between the three young women is funny as well as touching.The Renaissance of Hetty Locklear is a great start to a new series, and I know I will be looking forward to reading more of Hetty's adventures.
