Title: Healing Hearts at Bumblebee Farm
Welcome to Bumblebee Barn, home to wonderful animals, stunning views and spectacular sunsets - and resident young farmer, Barney.
While Barney loves his life at Bumblebee Barn - a farm that has been in his family for generations - he's struggling to find someone to share it with. The early mornings quad biking through muddy fields and the long hours looking after the crops and animals are proving to be a deterrent to finding love.
So when his sister, Fizz - desperate for Barney to find his soulmate - sees an advert for Love on the Farm, a new reality TV show to help farmers find love, he has nothing to lose by applying. After all, he isn't meeting anyone suitable down the traditional route and surely he won't be picked anyway...?
Thrown into the chaos of reality TV, Barney could never have expected that his whole life would be turned upside down, with buried secrets to be uncovered and his heart on the line. With his family and friends rooting for him, could the magic of Bumblebee Barn heal his broken heart and help him find love on the farm?
Join top 10 bestseller Jessica Redland for a brand new standalone novel of love, family and second chances.
Jessica Redland has done it again, another simply superb story, that had me hooked.
I adored getting to know Barney a lot better, and also thoroughly enjoyed Amber's point of view and her backstory.
It certainly is a bit of a twist on the typical story involving a reality dating show and I really admired Amber's principals.
And for all of us Hedgehog Hollow fans out there, you will be glad to know that Fizz and Sam both appear, as does the rescue centre, in enough proportions to give us our hedgehog fix! And if you have never read that series from this author then no need to worry as this really is a standalone book, it's just got a couple of characters overlap, and not in a major way.
I adored all elements of this story, and enjoyed the uniqueness of Barney's potential matches on the show!
Some wonderful characters, compelling backstories and a whole lot of heart, everything you would expect from this author and a whole lot more. Wonderful.
Thank you to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
Thanks so much for your lovely review, Rachel. Delighted you loved this story and that you enjoyed the little treats for Hedgehog Hollow fans along the way :-)
