but behind the scenes there's a story why Jack has imprisoned himself - and his story was heartbreaking.
Jack had lost his wife and he couldn't (or wouldn't) move on so surrounded himself with the memories of her by keeping things as if she were still there. and definitely doesn't want to feel the undeniably sexual attraction to a woman for the first time in three years. he doesn't want change, doesn't want to show a privileged barbie doll stranger around.
However, the third brother - brooding Jack Valentini, is not happy. Privileged rich city girl Margot is a feisty, savvy PR agent who has been hired to promote an Organic Farm owned by three brothers - and two of them are happy she's spending a few weeks getting to know them, the produce they grow and life on a working Farm. And the dual POV storyline, which was very well narrated, made this an awesome listen. Every single paragraph, every single sentiment, every single nuance, every single sex scene, every single crack in Jack's walls and every heartwarming romantic declaration was perfectly described. and finally on to that sweet sighworthy ending.
From Margot throwing scones at her worthless ex during her Mother's posh dinner party, through the first awkward meeting between her and Jack, on to the push/pull rollercoaster relationship that tentatively smouldered then burned brightly. and so she should be because this epic relationship based emotional story claimed me right from the start. I'm sure Melanie Harlow is very proud of this book.
