I adore thee Lovelight series so much! Each book was like a perfect warm hug and this was a great ending to an amazing series.

I love Charlie
I love Nova
I love all the Lovelight characters so much

After four books these characters feel so real and like the perfect little family. I'll always come back to these books as comfort reads!

NOVA PORTER IS walking towards me like she can’t decide if she wants to dance with me or tear me limb from limb.

THIS BOOK! Was so much fun. I loved Charlie and Nova. Nova gave off oldest daughter energy despite her not being the oldest and I felt that was a wise choice by BK to write her character like that. Charlie on the other hand is a people pleaser to the extreme.

Conversations with Nova usually feel like a battlefield where she’s armed with the infinity stones and I’m wearing a bunny suit.

You could not have paired two more opposite characters than Charlie and Nova. Suit-wearing Charlie. Tattoo-loving Nova.

I’ve allowed myself doses of happiness while I cling to it with two hands, terrified if I indulge too much, if I give too much of myself, I’ll be left standing without anything at all.

This book is for the oldest daughters. I stand by this even though if it’s not specifically stated this is who this is for

I never wanted this series to end, but this was the perfect conclusion to one of my favorite series 🥹

I loved getting cameos from Luka & Stella, Beckett & Evie, and Caleb & Layla. If I could choose a fictional town to visit, I would easily pick Inglewild and hang with the Lovelight Farms fam 🤍

Charlie and Nova were so easy to root for. Charlie, an investment banker from the cities, temporarily steps up to run Lovelight Farms. The big city/small town crossovers are so fun 🥰

Charlie was the perfect golden retriever MMC and him & Nova couldn’t be more perfect for each other.

This small town, opposites attract romance had me unable to stop reading while simultaneously not wanting it to end.

Reading this series has brought me so much joy, and these characters are truly some of my very favorites 🫶

What a beautiful last story in the Lovelight series. Nova and Charlie were such a lovely couple and they really helped each other grow. I loved seeing everyone from the previous books again and I loved all the small town shenanigans. The steamy scenes were really good. It is sad that this series has come to an end but it was a great ride.

My heart!
This might be my new fave in this series. This book had me crying. Not only was I so in love with Charlie but I also felt such a connection to him and the way he feels. Let’s not even start on my obsession with Nova! I love this series and town so much!

BK Borison did the thing with this book and I cannot stop thinking about it. The black cat x golden retriever is quickly becoming my favorite trope. If you haven’t read this series what have you been doing with your life.

It’s finally here! Am I happy or am I sad that we are finally getting Nova and Charlie’s story?? Don’t know, don’t care. All I really care about is telling y’all how much I loved this book.

Nova is MY GIRL! I love how confident she is in her talent and even though she is nervous about starting her business, she knows her niche and is ready to have something of her own. Not only is bestie drop dead gorgeous, but she’s also kind and smart and a really great friend and sister. I love how her and Charlie’s relationship progresses from being passive friends who banter-flirt to being the most important person in each other’s lives. One of my absolute favorite parts of this book was also getting to see into Nova and Beckett’s sibling relationship. We all know that Beckett is a secret softie, but he’s an extra big softie when it comes to his favorite little sister.

Charlie is babygirl. He is so down bad for Nova and I LOVE it. He’s not your stereotypical finance bro, he’s caring, selfless, and so darn sweet. Definitely not what I think of when I hear NYC investment banker. He’s so selfless that he’s completely forgotten about his own happiness. I loved how Nova and everyone else in Inglewild were able to remind him that he’s deserving of a full and happy life.

And so our trip to Ingelwild finally ends and boy, did I love this ending.

Charlie really, really wants to be accepted, and Nova is busy with her new business. They shouldn't work on paper, and yet the pair of them was so special. Lovelight is my new favorite town!

I downloaded this before realizing it was part of a series. Regardless, I dove in and really enjoyed the story, town and characters. I did feel likeI was missing something’s obviously since the other books featured the other couples. I am sure had I read the other books I’d have loved this more. I really loved that the little town was so cute with q christmas tree farm, bakery etc. i want to live there myself. Charlie and Nova had great chemistry and this was such a quick and fun read. Charlie was sooo lovable and sweet I couldn’t fathom how Nova had turned him down ever. He seemed to be a no brainer to me. I loved the grumpy /sunshine element and all the cute flirting!

💭 MY THOUGHTS: Even though Business Casual is book #4 in the Lovelight Farms series, this was the first book I’ve read from the series. It probably would have been more fun to read the other books first so I knew the backstory of the other characters but I was still able to pick up on who was who. Even though this had some of my favorite tropes I felt like the first half of the book was so slow and the intro to Charlie and Nova was very surfacey. The second half totally picked up and I got much more interested and invested in the romance. I ended up really rooting for Charlie and Nova.

I’ve been so excited for the last installment in a series that I have absolutely loved. This did not disappoint! Charlie and Nova are swoon worthy. This had the perfect amount of humor, romance, spice, and emotion. I’m sad it’s over!

It's really such a shame that this series ended because I feel like Borison finally found the right balance of heart-warming romance, humor, small town antics and characters with depth.

I've found couple of the other books in the series veering to the hallmark a little bit too much and with really unsatisfying plot devices (please I'm still mad about the last 12% of Lovelight Farms), but with Business Casual, everything felt just right. Being able to believably build a friends' one-night stand into a romance can be really challenging but Nova and Charlie's character arcs were satisfying, had enough tension to keep me reading and didn't bore me like often happens with friends to lovers books for me.

Borison's writing has also come a long way since Lovelight Farms: there was a lovely depth to both Charlie and Nova without tripping over to the melodramatic. Really interested to see what she writes next!

I love every trip I get to take to Inglewild! The story of Nova and Charlie was one that I could not stop reading. These two made my heart flutter as I watched them fall for one another but struggle to see they each deserved to also be loved. I recommend this to anyone who wants a fun romance, especially for the fall. Although I am sad to see the Lovelight series is finished, this was the perfect closing book.

This was so sweet! Loved these two! Soooo opposites attract. He was such a sweet golden retriever and she was a black cat. I haven't read the other books in this series, oops.

I loved their families and need to go back to read how they all got together. This is such a comfy cozy town and small town life is so fun. It's nice when everyone knows everyone. Not when you are trying to have a secret relationship though.

These two were so all in for eachother but it took a second since they had some issues to deal with first . Even with the most supportive family some things pop up. Communication is key!

Thank you @BerkleyPub #Berkley #BerkleyPartner for the free book. These opinions are my own.

Business Casual is the fourth book in the Lovelight Farms series, and I definitely recommend reading these in order. While this could stand alone, parts of it focused so much on the three couples of the earlier books that I can't imagine fully understanding or enjoying without having read them. Indeed, I found I needed to refresh my memory of each to truly dive in.

As the title suggests, Nova and Charlie are just looking for something casual. Neither hopes for a relationship, but both know from the start that they also value their friendship.

I enjoyed the series, but this one just didn't connect for me as much as earlier books. I love the small town setting and missed being a part of the phone tree. I wanted more of the community interactions. The conclusion was great and a good fit for the series while also allowing for more books to potentially be added in future.

I recommend this for folks who love visiting Lovelight Farms and need to know what happens next. It stands alone, but it's best within the series and getting to know all the other couples.

3.5 stars rounded up

Inject this book into my veins. I loved it SO MUCH. A perfect ending to a beautiful series. I love everything about this one, Charlie and Nova have my heart. Thank you BK Borison for making me cry my little eyeballs out at them. So sad to say goodbye to Lovelight Farms, can’t wait to visit them again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 Business Casual | B. K. Bor

This series is one of those series that just give off all the feels and make you want to live in a small town!

I loved Charlie and Nova’s story, it was raw without being to traumatic and it really seemed like an opposites attraction sort of love story which was fun.

Charlie might be a new book boyfriend, he was just so perfectly written! He is selfless and caring but clearly lonely so I am glad he got his happy ending 🥰

If you haven’t read this series, you really should, I have enjoyed all of the love stories and the side characters in this town.

Nova wants to be independent and prioritize her dreams. Charlie just wants to belong after a childhood with a father who made him feel less than and unworthy. Every character we’ve grown to know makes an appearance and it was the best way to close out the series 🥹. Charlie and Nova have chemistry and top notch banter, but also such tenderly loving moments. This was everything we love about Inglewild. My heart was melting by the first page and the closure is bittersweet.

Business Casual is the final installment of the Lovelight Farns series. Nova Porter, a tattoo artist, is unexpectedly attracted to Charlie Milford, a business-minded investment banker. They agree to a one-night stand to get over their chemistry, but it only brings them closer, with Charlie determined to prove he's worth her time.

I really loved Lovelight Farms and Mixed Signals, but I wasn’t a fan of In the Weeds so I wasn’t sure how I would feel about Business Casual. Overall, I was disappointed. While I love Charlie and Nova as individuals, I didn’t see the chemistry between them. I wish there had been more focus on how they became friends and how they developed their relationship. Most of the book is all smut, which I wasn’t expecting, and it didn’t seem to move their relationship forward. I found myself more interested in the subplots and enjoyed reading about the side characters more. Overall, I liked the series, even though the final book wasn’t my favorite.

An opposites attract, flirtatious yet emotional romance, with an immersive setting, charming family dynamics and small town antics. Enter Charlie and ‘Nova Girl’. Two characters I absolutely adored reading. Our sunshine good-natured hero in finance, and our driven sarcastic tattoo artist heroine.

Flirting is the language of love in this romance. The flirty texts, the sarcastic humor, the communication, and the vulnerability felt on the page. Many of my favorite intimate moments took place within Nova’s tattoo studio; moments that continue to live rent free in my mind.

If you’re looking for a cozy reading experience, spice, flirtation and vulnerability, with a dose of meddling tight knit family antics, look no further than Business Casual. The ultimate comfort romantic read. Absolutely recommend.

Thank you Berkley and NetGalley for my gifted ARC in exchange for an honest review.
