This was an okay romance book. The premise is very cute, and I really enjoyed the farm and animal interactions and the arc of Scarlett trying to save the ranch and make it a rescue. 

For me, the romance piece felt rushed. Like the instant they see each other they’re both thinking of marriage and will they want me despite both coming out of divorces and saying they aren’t looking for someone new. While it does take a few days for that to turn into a relationship, it just feels unrealistic and almost forced. 

The people in the book are very faith based and are constantly thanking the lord for solving all their problems or asking for solutions or a sign or various other things, which personally isn’t my cup of tea. It caused me to skip over some of the lines of introspection as it was irrelevant to the story and felt performative. 

With that said, it was a cute book, but the part I really enjoyed was Scarlett’s journey bringing the farm back together and making it a rescue. I left the book wishing I got more of that and less of a forced feeling romance.
