Lovelight Farms follows Stella who owns a quickly failing Christmas Tree farm that enters a contest to try to get some money to help the farm. However, she lies on the application and says she owns it with her boyfriend. When she asks her best friend, Luka, to help her out by pretending to be her boyfriend, they might discover something more.
I'm going to be totally honest that friends to lovers isn't my favorite trope. I don't think that the stakes are ever high enough for why they can't be together especially in contemporary romance. Honestly I was more frustrated with these two for the fact that Stella kept making these excuses as to why she couldn't be with Luka and being so blind to the fact that he was very obviously in love with her.
I thought their sexual tension was done so well in this book and that really drove me to keep reading. I really liked all the characters in this and I was interested to see how they would go about saving the farm in this. This book wasn't so much about the fake dating but about two people finding their feelings for each other and how to deal with it. I really loved the side characters in this book and thought they were all so well done. It made me excited for the other books in this.
I absolutely did love the Christmas vibes this book gave off as well. I thought this was such a fun book to read around the holidays as it really puts you in the mood and I loved seeing how well these characters work together.
I would also say there is a little mystery in this book that I thought was solved a little too easily but I still enjoyed this book.
I would say if you are intersted in reading this book and like friends to lovers, definitely pick this up. It was a really good book.
