Jonathan was too good to be true, and I would pay quite a lot of money to read this exact same book from his POV. David is a mess when he arrives on the farm and he is so relatable, you can't help but like him. It's written in the form of David's journal, so we only ever get his perspective, but it was so, so lovely and bittersweet in places. It was so raw and intimate and breathless, it had my head spinning. This book probably 65% sex, possibly more. But there he meets the world's sexiest farmer (Jonathan) and when I say sparks fly. We get quite a colonial concept to start with - depressed British boy (David) is shipped off to a farm in the middle of nowhere to get his head straight. Geographical and cultural accuracy aside, this was gorgeous. It's not often (as in literally never) that I get to read an MM romance so close to home, I was thrilled. And I've gotta say - Jesse Reign got the vibe exactly right. But I think I have to declare my bias first because this book is set in South Africa, and I happen to be South African.
