Winning the lottery has ruined Opal Devlin's’s life. After quitting her dead-end job where she’d earned minimum wage and even less respect, she’s bombarded by people knocking at her door for a handout the second they found out her bank account was overflowing with cash. And Opal can’t seem to stop saying yes.
With her tender heart thoroughly abused, Opal decides to protect herself by any means necessary, which to her translates to putting almost all her new money to buying a failing flower farm in Asheville, North Carolina to let the flowers live out their plant destiny while she uses the cabin on the property to start her painting business.
But her plans for isolation and self-preservation go hopelessly awry when an angry (albeit gorgeous) Pepper Smith is waiting for her at her new farm. Pepper states she’s the rightful owner of Thistle and Bloom Farms, and isn’t moving out. The unlikely pair strike up an agreement of co-habitation, and butt-heads at every turn. Can these opposites both live out their dreams and plant roots? Or will their combustible arguing (and growing attraction) burn the whole place down?

My Review: This was one of those books that I just saw the cover and knew it would be an instant love match for me. This book is a forced proximity, neurodivergent, and most importantly – sapphic romance that takes place on a flower farm!!!! SIGN ME UP!!Both of the main characters are both divergent and bisexual. As a bisexual, neurodivergent woman myself, I found myself in both of these characters. This had everything I want in a romance: some well written spice, light humor, well rounded protagonist dual POV’s, and amazing literary art. Mazey Eddings does an amazing job with her work. I felt like I was reading straight poetry. “It rewires my circuits, every nerve sparking at her touch, every pulse point beating in a rhythm of want.” I recommend this book to anyone who is even acutely interested as it will have you hooked from just one chapter.
