Becoming A Vincent by C.M. OwensMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Three and a half stars.
Tomahawk is a crazy town in the middle of nowhere. The men have been running a beard challenge for the last nine years (first one to trim their beard has to swim the lake naked) and the four craziest families in town are known as 'The Wild Ones'.
Lilah Vincent is a Wild One, the only girl of triplets she thinks she probably got all the brains, she and her brothers are in a constant pranking/teasing contest, the latest 'jape' involved nailing all of Lilah's underwear to the outside of her cabin!
Lilah's BFF is the enigmatic Benson Nolans, a fairly recent addition to the town no-one knows anything about him, what he does for a living, who his family is, where he came from. Nevertheless Benson has entered into the spirit of Tomahawk, growing a big ugly beard and rescuing Lilah from some of her brothers' worst excesses.
But when Lilah decides to end the beard challenge a whole new group of attractive men emerge from the bushes and suddenly Lilah's friendship with Benson doesn't quite seem enough.
If you like extreme practical jokes, wacky townspeople and bringing the cray-zee then you will love this. I enjoyed the book but I wasn't sold on Lilah and her family.
