Love Blooms at Hollyhock Farm by Georgina Troy
Series: Hollyhock Farm #3
Genres: Contemporary Fiction, Womens Fiction

After an amazing year looking after Hollyhock Farm, on the beautiful island of Jersey, pregnant Lettie needs to step back from farming. The problem is, with her family overseas, there’s no one to take over.

But then help comes from two places at once. Handsome fire-fighter Joe needs to escape his small home since his mother and her new husband came to stay; he offers to help run the farm in exchange for board in one of the spare rooms. Then, adventurous newcomer Skye takes the other room, excited to try her hand at farming in such an amazing place.

But managing the farm together may be more than either of them bargained for, especially as each of them drives the other crazy, in more ways than one. Will the tension get too much for Joe and Skye, or could love bloom with the Jersey flowers this spring?

Review

When Lettie steps back from farm life during her pregnancy, Joe and Skye both arrive unexpectedly to help—and although they get off to a rocky start, what follows is a slow-build story about connection, second chances, and community. While some elements are a bit predictable (yes, there’s definitely a “boy meets girl” vibe), the richness of the side stories and the character development kept things engaging and fresh. I especially loved how vividly the author painted the setting—it truly felt like I was walking the fields, seeing the island, and experiencing the peaceful pace of farm life right alongside the characters. A lovely, uplifting read that leaves your heart a little fuller.
