Description
A cozy small town business-rivals-to-lovers romcom about finding joy where you least expect it from USA Today bestselling author Andie Burke.
Felicity Gallagher thought inheriting her aunt’s plant shop would be the fresh start she needed. She never expected that the trendy, mac and cheese themed restaurant next door–and its inconveniently hot chef–might be her downfall.
Nicolas Holm-Bozic is arrogant and presumptuous and just flat-out gets under her skin. Felicity has made ignoring him an art form—until the exploding popularity of his restaurant leads to renewed interest in Felicity’s quirky corner of Kansas. Now, a greedy developer is threatening both their businesses with a towering parking garage that could steal the sunlight from her plants. With her shop’s future in jeopardy, Felicity must join forces with her least favorite neighbor.
As the pair fight back, Nic and Felicity’s formerly contentious relationship blooms into something new, but hidden battle scars, old secrets, and a devastating storm threaten everything they’ve built. Will they choose to cut and run, or are they finally ready to put down permanent roots?
Andie Burke’s So It Grows is chock-full of heat, heart, humor, and everything in between.

This was my first book by Andie Burke and I will absolutely be reading more. So it Grows blew me away. I connected so much with Felicity's journey and thought she was a wonderful main character who felt so raw and real. The romance had me giggling, kicking my feet, and at times crying. I will be thinking about these characters for a long time. I found the theme of healing to be so therapeutic. Love love love!

I read this book in the span of 48 hours. I legitimately devoured it. The character development, the banter between Felicity and Nic, the raw emotional moments -- I can't even begin to express how much I loved about this book. I was laughing out loud one minute and nearly in tears the next. The strength and resilience that they both have after overcoming the challenges in their lives is phenomenal, and the portrayal of what they dealt with is so moving. It takes a lot of skill to write about hard topics and Andie nails it from the start. Also, the twist midway through was AMAZING - I didn't see it coming AT ALL and I think it added SO much depth to both their relationship and Nic.
5/5 stars, going to tell all my friends who love romance to read it.
Reviewer 2020006
I gave So It Grows by Andie Burke a full five stars because it is one of those rare, perfect reads that felt like it was written exactly for me. The emotional depth of the story blew me away; it’s so much more than just a romance, capturing the messy, beautiful reality of healing and self-discovery in a way that felt incredibly raw and honest. I was completely swept up in the chemistry between the leads, it was tender, high-stakes, and so deeply rooted in mutual respect that I found myself cheering for them on every single page. The lush, botanical atmosphere added such a unique and magical layer to the experience, making the whole book feel like a warm hug. It’s a stunning, heartfelt story that I know I’ll be thinking about and recommending for a long time.
