Late Bloomer by Mazey Eddings
4.0
funny hopeful medium-paced
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes


Spring is in the air and being at a flower farm sounds like a perfect setting for a sapphic romance. Opal wins the lottery and is at crossroads with her life. She decides to buy a flower farm sight unseen where she learns Pepper lives there and it was a farm started by her grandmother. They decided to help each other out and live together on the farm. I loved seeing their friendship/romance develop. There's a lot of funny moments and I love how Eddings writes real characters and how their mental health is important in the story. The story is told in dual POV and I wished the there was 2 narrators instead of 1. 

The author's note was such a treat. I loved the ideas of the different titles she came up with. 

Thank you @smpromance @macmillan.audio @netgalley for a copy of this.
