Battling Beckett by T. Christensen – Review by Angela Shirley

Battling Beckett: A Contemporary Step Brother Romance by T. Christensen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Greer is living life under the radar just how she likes it, but when her mother decides to move them into the home of her boyfriend Greer’s life turns into a nightmare, not only a new home, new people but a new school is never good in the senior year but when she starts getting bullied the most unlikely hero comes to her rescue.

Beckett has had his battles but when his father moves in the new flavour of the month, he is determined to show them for the money grabbing woman she is. Beckett has always been an only child and with a new girl added to the mix has made things complicated but when Beckett starts to have feelings towards the interloper and defends her at school, can he really change?

This is not the first book by this author and this book does not disappoint one bit. I love the story and as always, the developed characters within this story. Beckett is a horrible individual in the beginning of this book, and I really did not enjoy the interactions he had with Greer but as always you slowly see him growing as a character and end up good in the end.

Greer’s character was a brilliant counter to Beckett, although at times you think she is a quiet mouse, don’t be fooled she ends up being a tiger and shows her true feelings as the story goes on. The story flows brilliantly and although this is a young adult story, you don’t feel this within the writing.
