Isabella Russo came to Lyndon Orchard with a plan. Spend a few months helping a struggling family farm find its footing, turn the project into the graduate work her impossible-to-please advisor can't reject, and move on.
Reid Lyndon has a plan too. Keep the fourth-generation Michigan apple orchard running, keep his family together, and get through the season without letting the relentlessly optimistic grad student rearrange everything in the process.
Neither plan survives the spring.
Between apple blossoms and honey bees, cider and donuts, farmers markets, family chaos, and a farm store that suddenly has a lot more customers than anyone expected, Issy becomes harder for Reid to dismiss, and Lyndon Orchard starts feeling a little too much like home to Issy.
Slow to Bloom is a warm, funny contemporary romance about finding your place, falling for someone you never saw coming, and the people who make a place worth staying for.

That was swoonworthy! I think I need an ice pack...
My only complaint is that it's making me want pancakes. With apples, obviously.
No time to chat. Must read...
I genuinely laughed out loud! Uncontrollably!
I fear I have been reading the last several chapters just to enjoy them, without my 'critical reader' hat on.
