Considering my favorite part of any novel (but especially of romance novels) is character development, I was sorely disappointed in the general lack of any in this book. I feel like Ms Audrey gave us nothing, & I was left feeling very meh about her ending. The smutty scenes were also...uninteresting. He didn't lick her pussy throughout the whole entire book, but it was somehow the best sex of Audrey's life? Mmmmm, okay ms girl, go on telling yourself that...I will know the truth... I was also hella upset that Audrey ended up

giving up her D R E A M of becoming a chef (which she states multiple times is the only career prospect that has ever made her happy) just to play farmer's wife for some

  loser who won't go down on her & ices her out while she's crying & upset for a "mistake" which was not in any way her fault!? But I'm expected to be happy for her since she

gets a part-time job...talking to farmers?

Respectfully, I feel sorry for her.
 
I cannot wait for the sequel where Audrey leaves farmer boy's ass, gets a real job (as a chef), & finds a man who will eat her out until she cries (positive).
