\"Tis<\/a>Tis the Season: A Farm to Table Christmas Novella by L Dreamer<\/b><\/span> is an age-gap Christmas romance featuring a prosecutor and an ex-con farmer.<\/p>\n

Olivia is a young attorney with an ambitious, long-term boyfriend. Bridgette (Bridge) is the founder of Dirty Hands Farm, a place intended to help ex-cons like herself transition back into society. After Olivia and her boyfriend trek to the farm to select a Christmas tree, Olivia leaves with ruined suede boots and a curious interest in Bridge.<\/p>\n

As Christmas turns to spring, Olivia finds herself drawn back to the farm, and the trip is repeated with each passing season. As a tender shoot puts down roots and eventually bears fruit, Tis the Season follows the tentative growth of a relationship between Olivia and Bridge. Along the way, the reader is treated to scenes of flower pressing, strawberry picking, and general fall awesomeness until the story makes its way back to Christmas once again.<\/p>\n

The Characters<\/b><\/h3>\n

Bridge is competent, kind, well liked, and self-aware. Although she is generally world-wise, a rough childhood followed by years spent in prison and building up the farm has left her with little romantic experience. Dreamer includes a couple of touching scenes featuring farm employees that deftly build our affection for Bridge by allowing us to see her through their eyes.<\/p>\n

Olivia is younger than Bridge, and several hurdles stand between these two and their happy ending. Not only is Bridge a woman, but she\u2019s also an ex-con. There\u2019s also the matter of Olivia\u2019s boyfriend Derick and a surprise proposal. Olivia gamely takes on each challenge, driven by an undeniable pull towards Bridge.<\/p>\n

The Writing Style<\/b><\/h3>\n

While Tis the Season is only novella length, it features a slow burn romance. As one might expect, Olivia takes time to come to terms with a previously unknown aspect of her sexuality. The story doesn\u2019t feel rushed because it focuses on the delicious, getting to know you phase of their relationship. There are no explicit scenes.<\/p>\n

This is my second Dreamer book, and I\u2019ve added him to my list of dependably good authors. His writing is unobtrusive with welcome moments of humor. Tis the Season checks plenty of the \u201cromance trope\u201d boxes, but it doesn\u2019t feel too formulaic.<\/p>\n

My Favourite Parts<\/b><\/h3>\n

Two things stuck with me long after I finished this novella. The first was the clever premise of having our mains meet at the farm over the course of a year. I could almost smell the summer strawberries and hear the delight of a fall festival. The second memory includes coffee, scones, the back of a pickup truck, and a meteor shower. If that doesn\u2019t set the scene for the best first date ever, then I don\u2019t know what does!<\/p>\n

The Conclusion<\/b><\/h3>\n

Buy this book if you celebrate the turn of every season and love a good slow burn romance.<\/p>\n

Excerpt from <\/b><\/span>Tis the Season: A Farm to Table Christmas Novella by L Dreamer<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u201cDo I smell blueberry scones?\u201d Olivia asked as she popped her head back around. The move brought their heads very close and Bridge felt her cheeks warm.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, you do. Good nose.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re still warm. Bridge, did you bake these?\u201d Olivia asked, eyes wide with surprise and delight.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did,\u201d Bridge answered, trying not to preen too hard.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh my goodness. You\u2019re my new favorite person.\u201d Olivia gushed as she pulled the container into her lap.<\/p>\n

Bridge had a hard time bringing her lips together to sip from her to-go mug as she listened to Olivia hum in pleasure as she devoured her second scone. They were only fifteen minutes into their drive.<\/p>\n

\u201cBridge you should seriously think about selling these in your general store. They\u2019re so good. Did you come up with your own recipe?\u201d she asked after barely swallowing her last mouthful.<\/p>\n

She knew she was probably going to have to talk about her time in prison with Olivia. She had given her permission to ask her about how she had started the farm and so she had prepared herself. The question about the recipe was as good a time as any.<\/p>\n

\u201cI… uh\u2026 did time with a woman who ran a bakery. She would give out the recipe to all the women who were getting out. A \u2018good luck on the outside\u2019 gift.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bridge hazarded a look at Olivia who took a sip of her coffee. She waited for a follow up question, but there didn\u2019t seem to be any.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyway, I make them every once in a while. And I have been asked to make them for the store. Maybe I will now,\u201d she said as she looked over and gave Olivia a quick smile.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think you should,\u201d Olivia said and then after a few seconds of silence, \u201cIs the baker still in prison?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, she\u2019s a lifer. She poisoned two of her three husbands to death.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bridge winced.\u00a0 Olivia stopped mid-chew and the hand holding the scone dropped comically fast. It was all Bridge could do not to laugh.\u00a0 \u201cDon\u2019t worry. No poison in these. Besides, you saw me eat one,\u201d Bridge said around a thoroughly amused grin.<\/p>\n
