Title: Miss Beth Bettencourt
Author: Eva Marie Everson
Publisher: Kregel
Release Date: May 12, 2026
Genre: Southern Fiction/Christian Fiction
Will an unlikely romance tear down Beth’s walls of indifference?
It’s 1962 in Bynum, Georgia, and Beth Bettencourt’s world is turned upside down when she wakes to a man snoring in the guest bedroom.
She’s home alone; her parents are traveling abroad, grieving her twin sister’s unexpected death. Instead of accompanying them, Beth stayed in Bynum to tend to her kindergarten and closely guard her own heart.
A beautiful and beloved member of the community, Beth is an unusual specimen for her time as she nears thirty and remains unmarried. She holds deep-seated unforgiveness toward her twin, Elise, who ran off with Beth’s beau. To make matters worse, Elise took their grandmother’s ring, which had been promised to Beth.
But now a stranger enters her home and her world. David Patrick Martin seems ready to break down her walls of indifference and find the core of Miss Beth Bettencourt.
But can he be trusted with Beth’s past, her present, and more importantly, her future?

My Thoughts on Miss Beth Bettencourt
The ultimate betrayal, from your best friend, your sister, your twin; that is what Beth has gone through. I’m not sure which I’d be more upset about in that story. Her twin steals her beau and her heirloom ring. I could write off the beau because he wasn’t worth it if he’d run off with her sister, but that heirloom ring is a one-of-a-kind. I’d definitely find that hard to let go of.
It’s 1962. She’s in Bynum, Georgia. And there is a man snoring in her guest room! How did he get there? Who is he? And what is she going to do about it?
Beth is a bit odd on her own. She’s a southern belle, but she’s also almost 30 and not married. She’s a spinster or on the verge of being one. Maybe this strange man is just what she needs to shake up her life!
This is a fun novel.
It’s Christian through and through. No closed-door scenes and no language, just wonderful romance and fun that can be read by all ages(well, within reason).
Marty is the man whom Beth found in her guest bedroom. His faith is admirable. He may not know what the path is or where it leads, but he follows each step as he finds it. His backstory isn’t all sunshine and roses either. But I’ll leave that for you to read and find out.
Beth is soft yet strong. She’s emotional yet can be stoic. And she’s pure gold! She runs a kindergarten out of her home. This would be daunting if she were alone, but her friend/her family’s maid, helps her. I loved their dynamic and relationship, and how complex the characters are.
This was such a fun book to read, and I highly recommend it.
