Look. Is this a four star book? No. But it is just what I needed. A glorified Sterek Farm AU. And isn't every half-decent romance novel just a thinly veiled Sterek AU, when you really think about it?
This is kind of corny, but it's well written and the dialogue is very good when it stops trying to be just The Wittiest Thing Anybody Has Ever Said, and it gave me the butterflies in the stomach and the tightness in the ribcage and all that good romancey feelings. I'll probably forget all about it in like three days, but it's been nice getting to read it, let me be generous for once.
Edited to add: Oh my god I need to say it. A dude that makes cheese just by himself in his two-maybe-three person farm doesn't make like ten kinds of different cheeses!! You can't make mozzarella, ricotta, cheddar, parmesan and fucking a bunch of other things in ALBANY!
