It was a fast, but fun read.
I personally don't like 'baby' as a term of endearment.
I also didn't really like how the FMC didn't really feel like she was good enough most of the book, but other than that I quite enjoyed the different characters and the storyline.

Good chemistry, but the driving forces aren't exactly the smarts decisions.

Only just a three for me. This was sweet and I loved the tight-knit family and farming themes, but the plot arc was predictable. I think it also just re-emphasised why the more serious style of contemp romance isn't really for me, there's just to much unjustifiable angst.

I'm in love with all of Sarina Bowen's characters, no matter which series.

What a great book. Perfect for fall, and I have been craving apple everything just reading about all the cider. I can't wait to read more by this author.

This was a reread for me as we are doing a buddy read of the whole series over in the Discord server. I’m glad to say the book read just as well the second time. Griff is so grumpy without being an asshole. The conflict is perfect, and the big conflict at the end was so well handled. I also really liked how the second chance was done, and that Griff is 100% in. His family is amazing dream, the perfect foil to Audrey’s awful mother.

Griffin Shipley, swoon! And what a cute family! I love the Shipleys and Grumpy Griff and Audrey’s dynamic. It was adorable how Audrey fell in love with the Shipleys and finally could feel at home with them more so than with her own family. She had so much to give and finally found people who could appreciate what she had to offer. Griff was a good guy although perfectly grumpy in the best way and I’m a sucker for HEAs.
