The Enchanted Hacienda is quite possibly the beat romance book I've read this year. I absolutely love every thing from the cover to the last word.
This book felt like a grown up version of Encanto - and I loved that the flower shop featured in the book was called Encanto :)
I loved the flowers based magic system, the close family connection, and the journey of self discovery.
Harlow was such a great character. I loved how she was lost but found herself, and I loved her journey. She was finding herself and finding romance, but not finding herself through romance.
Ben was also a fantastic character. He was immediately alluring and he was so cute, even if he thought he was bad at romance (spoiler - he wasnt).
I really liked the many kinda of love in this book. New love, old love, sisterly or maternal, and the love of friendships.
Genuinely a fantastic read
