Review: Sweet but slightly boring
Rating: 3 out of 5

I intentionally chose to read this book because I had a craving for a sweet story following a known formula. However this book did not focus on a new couple, rather was about how busy and overworked Eli and Geoff (from a previous book) were. Eli gets sick and this forces them to realise they need to take more time to themselves.Yes it was sweet but it was also a bit boring. With the other books in the series, although following the same formula (men from different backgrounds meet, they are trying to sort out their own issues, they are attracted and get together, they have a misunderstanding or reason to part, the friends on the farm offer support and words of wisdom, they get back together....), there was a bit of story progression, some drama and character development. This story, although showing the strength of Eli and Geoff's relationship after 9 years, just seemed flat.It was only a short book (under 100 pages) so more like a quick follow up.
