Summary

Malachi Booth is a supermodel. He’s used to moving about the world, sleeping with whoever takes his fancy, and watching the money roll in. The last place he expects to find himself is on a run-down farm in Cornwall, but a bad bout of bronchitis means that he’s stuck there. The only compensation for this dismal state of affairs is that the farmer is very good looking, even if he’s the grumpiest person that Malachi has ever met.

Cadan Landry’s farm has been in his family for hundreds of years but that doesn’t make it any easier to make ends meet. As a consequence, Cadan could be called grumpy. Most men would consider a supermodel collapsing at their feet while dressed in the skimpiest pair of briefs ever made to be a sign of good fortune. Cadan just resents the fact that the young man is taking up space in his cow field.

These two men are from different worlds, but can they ever meet in the middle?

From best-selling author Lily Morton comes a novella about snarky models, misconceptions, and finding a home in the most unlikely of places.

It’s been ages since I’ve laughed this much. An entertaining read with plenty of snark, banter and steam. Joel Leslie did a fabulous job bringing the characters to life.

Highly recommend!

Independent reviewer for GRR, I was gifted the audio version of this book.

Oh this was so delightful!

Malachi finds himself stranded on a farm with a nasty chest infection. Caden owns said farm.

What follows is a wonderful story of not judging what you see, and a battle of wits that had me laughing out loud walking up to work.

Malachi is not ashamed of his job or his personality and is a very much take him as he is, or lump it. Caden is the same, but he starts to see a different Mal, one who creeps under his skin and into his heart. The same heart he was trying to keep locked up.

I loved the idea of the strings pulling Mal to stay at the farm. Gave me a Twitterpated kinda feeling.

When things go wrong, I was surprised the way it went. I was expecting Mal to be the bringer of doom.

Joel Leslie narrates. It's been a while since I had a non American accent in my ear and Joel Leslie NEVER fails to disappoint. His voices for all the characters is spot on, and the accent that Caden has is subtle, but very clearly Cornish. It comes out stronger when he gets annoyed, or excited and I loved that.

I can't fault this book, nor the narration and as such can only get . .

5 full and shiny stars

Another first class story by Lily Morton. As usual it's full of sass, snark and beautiful men. It has hilarious banter, fabulous characters, slightly insane secondary characters, a delicious super model and sexy farmer. I couldn’t put this book down, and was completely consumed from start to finish! Despite it being a relatively short listen, the character development was spot on and, once again, I found myself totally immersed in the Cornish countryside. Joel was a wonderful Malachi, his snarky, but vulnerable (at times), representation was spot on.

Another winner from Lily and Joel

I’ve loved every book I’ve read by Lily Morton and when I listen to her audiobooks performed by the fantastic Joel Leslie, I love them even more. I actually hadn’t read Spring Strings with my eyes so I listened to this one very intently; I was totally captivated. The story is told in first person, alternating between Malachi and Cadan.

Cadan Landry’s life gets turned upside down when he leases his farm to be used in a photoshoot. He doesn’t expect to fall in love with supermodel Malachi Booth.

I loved this opposites-attract, grump/sunshine story. Cadan comes to Malachi’s rescue when Mal falls ill during the photoshoot. He helped nurse Mal back to health but kept finding excuses for Mal to stay with him on the farm. The heat between them won’t be denied but Cadan’s farm is deeply in debt and he doesn’t feel like he can start a serious relationship.

These two have a lot to work out before they can get their HEA but Lily Morton does a spectacular job of finally getting them there. The epilogue set three years later was like the perfect desert after a wonderful meal.

A copy of this audiobook was provided to me at my request but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author/narrator.
