I loved so much about this book! The tension was top notch and I loved the two main characters. I loved the banter and humor throughout this book.
One thing I didn’t like as much was how painfully obvious it was that they were in love with each other and were the last to know about it. The third act breakup was frustrating!

And then when he confesses his love for her she tells him that he doesn’t actually love her…I don’t typically like when a person tells someone else what they are feeling.

So much has been said about this book, that there isn't a whole lot that I can add. But I will say it deserves all of the love! Lovelight Farms was the feel-good escape that I needed.
The idyllic setting, the relatable characters, the delightful banter, the sweet moments, the endearing friendship, the chosen family, the slow building sexual tension, the ideal supporting cast - everything was just so well done. It's hard to believe this was a debut!
I cannot put into words how much I loved the quaint small town Christmas tree farm setting. It created all of the cozy fall/winter vibes, and definitely made me want to visit. I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention Beckett, the ideal book boyfriend!
The fake dating trope is typically my least favourite, but it plays an integral part to this story and B.K. Borison has done a wonderful job in developing both Stella and Luka that it ends up working quite well.
This book solidified my love for small town romances and the friends-to-lovers trope. It had an overall good story and definitely blew away any expectations I had. I cannot wait to read the follow up In the Weeds.
