This checked off everything I look for in a book. Was not disappointed. Really enjoyed this book. I will read more from this author. Must read

This is the first book I have read by this author, so obviously read book 3 as a stand alone. While some of the back story about the Brockman family was dispersed throughout the story, I think that more should have been provided, perhaps as a prelude. It would have made understanding the hero and his relationship with his brothers clearer.

Adam, the youngest of the Brockman brothers, loves Brockman Farm and his small town of Graciella and has no desire to ever leave. But he does desire what his older brothers found, a woman to love and a family of his own. Since I did not read the first two books, I'm not clear what the three brothers had to go through to reclaim the family farm, since apparently the older two took off for college and didn't come back, leaving their youngest brother and mother, Katie, at the mercy of their father, until Katie divorced T.D. and married Javiar.

Adam knows exactly what he wants in a wife and the minute he lays eyes on widow, Cassandra Dorsey, he knows she is it for him. However, he does not make a very good first impression. Cassie has come to Brockman Farms to recover from the stress and depression she has been suffering from since her husband was killed by a drunk driver. She is a food writer, but has not been able to smell or taste anything. Adam and the wonderful atmosphere at the farm, help her recover, so that she starts writing again. Adam is so in love with her, but something from her past frightens her and she runs, deserting him like his brothers did. Will love conquer all?

I like the characters and the writing, but parts seem to drag a bit for me and I did get tired of Cassie's comments about him being so young.

I read an ARC from Net Galley.com. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.

this book was so precious! i highly recommend this book to anyone that loves a good escape story! it was just so delightful to read and i enjoyed every single second! thank you again, netgalley!!!

What a sweet and romantic story Flirting With Forever was. Adam was a gentleman through and through. Cass was a broken woman just looking to reset her life and move forward. Together they found that love can conquer all and solve a lot of life’s problems.



Adam was in love with the land and Brockman Farms and knew that someday, his hearts desire would just fall into his life. He didn’t expect it to happen the way it did but was so thankful for Bullet and that shovel of manure. He needs to find a way to get Cass to see that he is her forever and that she belongs with him. Yes, there are trial and tribulations and Adam messes up, but, once he takes that step back and sees what he has done, he do whatever it takes to make it up to Cass and promise her the forever that she deserves.



This was actually a second chance at love story for Cass. After a terrible heartbreak, she needs to mend, to find herself and her career again. She doesn’t expect to find love or a man that would move heaven and earth for her to be happy and loved … that would stand beside her in the worst of times and accept her – flaws and all. But, she did. Her life will never be the same again and she is so very thankful for that.



I had a small problem with Adam’s self-depreciation throughout the story. I understood that had a lot to do with his upbringing, his feeling of abandonment but sometimes it went a little too far. As for Cass, I felt like she really wasn’t sure what she wanted once everything that she thought she lost came back to her. I felt like she just flipped a switch from taking it slow to full speed ahead with the turn of the page. I understood taking it slow … I was confused when she changed her mind. But, Adam was a gentleman through it all and followed her lead. I was proud of the man he was and happy with the way he treated the woman who completed his dreams. He was also extremely sappy at times and I’m not sure if that enhanced the story or took away from it. I actually found myself rolling my eyes sometimes but, he got his point across and won the lady over.



All in all, I enjoyed the story and would definitely read more of the Graciella series. Sarah Ohlin did write a beautiful and enticing love story.

Such a sweet and pure love story. I loved both of these characters and how Adam was so open and wore his heart on his sleeve. His dedication and adoration for Cassandra is swoon worthy. This was such a great, relaxing and heart warming read.

Let me start by saying I LOVED Adam. He was adorable, sweet, funny, charming and sexy. And I loved his relationship with his brothers and his dog, swoon. And while this story had so many opportunities to dive deep into grief and moving on with love after the death of a loved one, I feel like it didn’t show that growth. Enter Cass, who loses her husband and goes to this beautiful farm in Oregon to reset her life. And it’s like boom, all of a sudden she is good to go, there is no growth or struggle with her grief, she just gets there and magically her grief is gone. And while I loved the relationship between her and Adam, again it felt like they met, he threw shit on her (literally) and boom he loved her and wanted to marry her, again, swoon, but really. I love a good romance as much as any other but I need at least SOME aspect of reality. Ugh, this book just frustrates me, everything was so rushed and instant, when there was SO much room for character growth and progression. But it was cute and I enjoyed reading it.

We love a good steamy romance! I didn’t have very high expectations but I really really enjoyed this one! If you are looking for a quick romance read I highly recommend this one

This book was steamy and romantic! I love good romance that has a little steam that is done well and this book is definitely that!

A cute but predictable story line, that is a heartwarming and satisfying read. Reeling from the death of her husband, Cass comes to Adam’s Guest Ranch to heal. I had a little trouble with the insta-love, but it was treated well, and Adam’s respectful treatment of Cass’ need to move slowly was well done. The prose was deeply descriptive, at times almost poetic, which made for a very rich reading experience. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher. This is my freely given, honest review.

I'm not usually into books that place the protagonists in a farm/ranch scenario.\
But I was happily disabused of t6his notion.
I laughed at the dialogue by times. Humourous and real.
I did get frustrated by times with heroine's obtuseness about realizing that her future was in front of her, not in the city.
All in all, a fun book to read, with just enough mystique to keep the pages turning quickly.
I would recommend this book to a friend.

A cowboy’s sweet love story.

A year and a half after her husband is killed, Cass needs to get away from her everyday life to heal. So she heads to Brockman Farms to enjoy the quiet country life. She was definitely not prepared for the handsome youngest brother to steal her heart. Adam might be the youngest brother, but he’s more than ready to settle down and raise a family on his farm.

Although I liked Cass and Adam, I just didn’t love them ... but they have a sweet love story. The storyline seemed to go really slow for the first half and some of the book and then the last part seemed rushed ... like part of the story was missing.

DNF at 25%.

I could not get into this book. From the first scene, like there's feminism and then there's this character and they are not the same. Screaming at a guy you just met about how all men are the same, when all he did was accidentally get compost on you is not it. Also, I know it's a book and the author gets to make their own world, except that it's based in a real state. A ranch that's 250 Thousand acres?

I am also confused by the "slow burn" reviews because this was insta love if I've ever seen it.

This book has an adorable romance and I highly recommend it! It’s perfect for fans of Abbi Glines.

3.5 stars
I liked reading the book and it was different to other books that I read in this genre. It’s not one of my favourite books but it’s worth go give this book a try if you like a sweet and steamy romance.

The story is all about recovering from a trauma and starting to enjoy life again. The book begins when Cass arrives in Graciella to recover from a trauma she has experienced over a year ago. She is there to recharge and restart her life to be able to live again. Not just survive. The way that Adam and Cass meet each other the first time is kind of funny and it was memorable to me. Adam is truly a nice an positive guy and he sweeps Cass of her feet. To my opinion the chemistry and blossoming romance was believable. I could feel the chemistry between Adam and Cass. To me the switch between de mourning and falling in love was a bit too quick. I had the idea that it was written that Cass was mourning the loss, but I was missing this in her thoughts and actions. I expected that there would be more reflections about her old life.

I enjoyed reading about the healing process of Cass and how she is able to enjoy life and love again. Both main characters are sweet and express their love in actions not just words. I adored Adam and he is my favourite character in the book. What I liked most is that he shows interest in others and he will do anything to make the people he loves and animals happy. It exactly what Cass needs.

What I also liked about the book is that it told the whole story for the two main characters. It did not end when I thought it would end. I see it as an extended epilogue. And I like to know what happens to the characters. It could have been a bit shorter to make me enjoy the book more.

I would definitely advice you to read the if you like a romance that will make you feel good, swoon and fall in love with the characters.

I received Flirting with Forever as part of a NetGalley giveaway.

Cass Dorsey, a widowed food writer, arrives at Brockman Farms ready to heal from the loss of husband. There she meets Adam, the youngest Brockman son, a sensitive animal lover who wants to find some measure of happiness after a difficult childhood. Sparks fly, and they find themselves in the middle of a hot fling that promises to turn into more. But when past circumstances come back to haunt them, Cass must decide to return to her old life, or forge ahead in a new home.

This was in some ways a fairly formulaic romance, but unique in others. I appreciated Adam being more of a Type B hero--emotionally mature, calm, and considerate. It was nice to see him acknowledge the importance of Cass' mental health and encourage her to see a therapist. So often in romances, the power of loooooove is considered enough to surpass any trauma, which is simply not how the world works. I'm also glad that they didn't compare Adam favorably to Cass' late husband, who was by all accounts a wonderful man. Again, there seems to be a tendency in romances to write off past loves--even healthy relationships--in order to build up the new one, and it was nice this one didn't. Finally, I liked that despite being a small-town romance, Adam can understand why Cass loves San Francisco and his opinion changes from disdain to appreciation, even if it's not where they build their life. All good stuff, though sometimes the narratives falls into typical tropes (extremely tightly knit family who are all BFFs, an adoring community) that have gone a bit stale. Still, this had enough unique elements to recommend it that I'm glad I gave it a shot.

A sweet, yet predicable romance with a very slow burn. It started off with a funny meeting between the 2 main characters. He is a perfect gentleman and she is hurt and looking to heal

Cass leaves her San Francisco life behind for what she hopes will be a much-needed period of rest and recovery as she works through a recent personal trauma. When, on her first day at the farm, she finds herself covered in manure, she second-guesses what type of vacation this is actually going to be.
What began as an uncomfortable- and smelly- encounter turns into a wholesome meet-cute. Cass rediscovers her passions, her identity, and revitalizes her love of her career with the help of a farmer who is looking for his own new beginning, as well.

Full of steamy romance, impassioned choices and sunset walks, Ohlin provides readers with a love story that will inspire their own.

**I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher, through Netgalley, in exchange for an honest review.

Sweet, slow burn romance. Not my favourite type of romance but it was overall an okay read. I found times that the story dragged on. Just not for me. I like a bit more spice and faster pace in my romances.

Thanks to Netgalley for the digital ARC for my honest review!
