Let It Be Me

By Becky Wade

Book Overview

Having graduated college at 18, Sebastian Grant has continued to leverage his intelligence and determination to become a pediatric heart surgeon. The more accolades he receives, the more he's driven to pursue. Then he meets high school math teacher Leah Montgomery, and his fast-spinning world comes to a sudden stop.

Solving advanced math equations by the age of five, Leah has always wanted to pursue a PhD in mathematics. She willingly put that dream on hold to raise her brother. Now that he is of age, she's set on avoiding any obstacles to her goal--including romance.

When Leah receives surprising news in the process of taking a test for tracking her ancestry, she asks Sebastian to help her comb through aged hospital records to learn more. Soon his presence isn't so easily ignored. But when Sebastian learns his best friend also has feelings for Leah, he begins to question his resolve to win her. Attaining their deepest desires may require more sacrifices than they ever imagined.

Customer Reviews

An original, inspiring read

This was such a unique story. I loved it! The way Leah went about discovery her and her family's past was so interesting. You never quite knew what was going to pop up next. Though I wasn't too big a fan of Sebastian's instant love of Leah, I did like Sebastian. I loved seeing him sort though his troubled past and feelings and with Leah's help, come out better. They both worked so well together, making the other a better person, bringing out the best in each other. As I mentioned before Sebastian's instant feelings for Leah was a little strange. He didn't even know her, yet fancied himself in love with her which gave it all a fake feel. The conflict with Ben liking Leah was a different twist, one you don't see too often, but it was handled very well. Becky Wade has a talent for drawing you into a story and not letting go till the very end, bringing the families on the page to life till you feel like you are there with them. I'm so excited to see where Ben's story goes! All in all it was a delightful read, with plenty of twists to keep the story moving and a romance that makes you give a happy sigh at the end. Definitely recommend this series. I received this book for my honest review. All opinions are my own.
