    I would have liked this more as a full length novel I think

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Favorite line: “I haven’t taken them off, except to sleep. And shower,” I’m quick to add, lest she think I don’t have good hygiene. “Been getting lots of compliments on them, too.” “Really? From whom?” “Mostly the chickens.” 📖 My Thoughts OMG this was soooo cute! I die. I loved the small town, Texan vibes. A young mama who is on her own, taking care of her baby and a burly, but charming farmer meet and the rest is history. And let's just say the history is SPICY af. I need more cowboy romances in my life fans self. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings Graphic: Sexual content, Cursing Moderate: Abandonment, Medical content, Body shaming Minor: Pregnancy, Toxic relationship, Child abuse 🌶️ Spice As the FMC would say, good gravy. While this was very cute and heartwarming, the spice was dripping. The characters get down and dirty and I was not mad about it.

    This would have been a really good full length novel, I felt like it just kind of picked up 15 chapters into a book skipping over a bunch, but overall very enjoyable. The southern vibe was a lot of fun too. It was cute how she was independent, single mom, wanting a FWB situation while he was thinking about making her and the LO a lil family. 🌶️ 4/5 Woooweee dude has a filthy mouth and I'm here for it lol a lil cringy at times, but fun. I love this author and can't wait to read more of her stuff.

    Evie works at the local thrift store, after moving to town to make a fresh start with her newborn. Luke is a local farmer who keeps coming into the store but never leaves with anything due to nothing fitting his large size. Her interest is piqued and she decides to make him some custom jeans. She surprises him at home with her homemade jeans and he is even more surprised when they fit perfectly. This was a great holiday novella with a good bit of spice. I really enjoyed it!
