Myla Rose McGraw may be twenty, single, and pregnant, but she's no damsel in distress. She doesn't need a man. After all, her Grams taught her a thing or two about making lemonade out of life's lemons. Then she meets Cash Carson. Reeling from a bad breakup, Cash has sworn off love. It led to nothing but pain and misery, and he’s determined to move forward alone. Until a redheaded Southern beauty crashes into him. With her shopping cart. At the local Piggly Wiggly. If love wasn't for him, why did his heart beat a little faster every time Myla Rose sent that sweet smile his way? He was no knight, and she didn't need saving. But damn if he didn't want to try anyway. COMING UP ROSES is a sweet, Southern fairy tale—with a twist.

Good heavens, this book, y'all. 

This story's charm was oozing off the pages. From the sweet little southern town, to the southern twang, to life-long friends that will be there for you always, to the pure swoon-worthiness of Cash - this book is purely amazing. 

I loved the whole premise. My heart bled for Cash in the first chapter but it was pieced back together by a feisty little southern belle, Myla Rose. Their loves was instant, but not in the "that never happens like that" kind of way. The way that Farlow wrote their love was 100% believable. 

I have to admit, I have a love/hate feeling about the dramatic turn in this one. I love the angstiness it gave the characters, but I seriously wanted to smack a bro (and you will, too!). 

Overall, though, this book is just fantastic! A definite 5 star read from me.

LK Farlow (A.K.A Kate) is a small town girl with a love for words. She’s been writing stories and poems for as long she can remember. A Southern girl through and through, Kate resides in beautiful, sunny LA—that’s Lower Alabama, y’all—with her amazing husband and three wonderful children. When she’s not writing, you can find her snuggled up on the couch watching nature documentaries while she crochets or with her nose in a book. All Kate really wants in this life is her family happy, strong coffee, a good book and more Happily Ever After’s.
