Lovelight Farms

For more of my reviews, check out my blog.

I can't remember where I first saw this book, or who recommended it to me, but I owe you a huge, huge thank you. Lovelight Farms was the exact book I needed this holiday season. It's sweet without feeling overly sugary. It is a romance book, so of course, there are some silly things included, but oh how I really really loved this one. In fact, I moved right along to the next book in the series immediately after finishing this one, if that tells you anything at all.

Stella Bloom owns a Christmas Tree farm, and everything is going wrong. There's a whole pasture of dead trees, someone keeps vandalizing her property, and the farm is basically hemorrhaging money. But she refuses to give up. Not once does she say she can't do it, not once does she think her dream is silly. I loved that about her, and I would have read like...eight hundred more pages of Stella and this farm.

AND THAT'S ALL WITHOUT MENTIONING THE LOVE OF STELLA'S LIFE, Luka! These two have known each other for years, and are absolute best friends. Their inside jokes and gentle teasing of each other felt incredibly believable. There were many funny moments, but none of it really felt ridiculous in the way that some romance books can. Lovelight Farms was the perfect friends-to-lovers book. It's done so well, and they really truly fit together like puzzle pieces. It was absolutely lovely to read, and like I said earlier — I would have happily read much, much more of this book.

I loved the setting, I loved all the mentions of Christmas, I loved the friends and side characters. I loved all of this book. I love how BK Borison writes – the characters feel familiar and warm without feeling overdone. Lovelight Farms is definitely going to be picked up again, probably next year around Christmas. It was the perfect seasoning to this holiday. I can't wait to read the next books in this series.
