Evelyn St. James isn’t the kind of woman you forget.
Beckett Porter certainly hasn’t. One incredible weekend in Maine, and he’s officially a man distracted. He’s not unfamiliar with hot and heavy flings. He knows how it goes. But Evie wove some sort of magic over him during their tumble in the sheets. He can’t stop thinking about her laugh. Her hand pressed flat against his chest. Her smiling mouth at his neck.
Also, her eyes. And her legs.
So when she suddenly appears on his farm as part of a social media contest, he is … confused. He had no idea that the sweet and sexy woman he met at a bar is actually a global phenomenon: social media influencer Evelyn St. James. When she disappears again, Beckett resolves to finally forget her and move on.
But Evelyn St. James has a problem.
Feeling disconnected from her work and increasingly unhappy, she’s trying to find her way back to something real. She returns to the last place she was happy, Lovelight Farms and the tiny town of Inglewild.
It has absolutely nothing to do with the hot farmer she spent two incredible nights with.
Nothing at all.
In The Weeds is a sweet and steamy second-chance romance about finding your happiness. It features a grumpy farmer, a no-nonsense social media influencer, a small town of busybodies, and four very cute kittens. In The Weeds is a standalone romance and is part of the Lovelight series.

Review:
I do not think there is a book Borison will write that I will not love.
When I found out this book was about Beckett Porter, I gave a little squeal. I really needed Beckett to have his story. I knew behind that grumpy exterior there was so much more and boy was I right! And to make it a kind of second chance for him made it that much more special. And then I saw DUAL POV and I was sold. The entire time I was reading the first book I kept wanting dual POV and was really hoping Borison would get on board with that and she did!
Beckett had a hot and heavy two night stand while at a farm conference. He knew it was just a fling but he can't seem to get that girl off his mind. So when Evelyn St. James shows up at Lovelight Farms and happens to be that same girl, his life is thrown into a tail spin. He never expected to see her again and he certainly never expected the spark that was between them to flame into a fire.
FINALLY Beckett's reaction to Evie showing up on the farm makes so much sense! His grumpiness, his social isolation, and so many other things all clicked into place in this book. I absolutely adore him and all his quirks. I love his relationship with his family and how he cares for them despite his own issues. And his love of animals, ugh. That endeared him to me so much. Borison did such a great job addressing his anxiety and showing how it affected him and his relationships.
Evelyn really needed that break. Being in the public eye all the time was taking it's toll. She finds happy at Lovelight, and how can you not? Despite being famous, she fit right in with the Lovelight crew. I really enjoyed her character and her journey during this book. She was vibrant and fun and definitely the sunshine to Beckett's grumpy.
THE. SIDE. CHARACTERS! Ok, so we already know Stella and Luka from book one but now we are introduced to all of Beckett's family. I love his sisters and his DAD! Plus we see Layla again and I just know she'll get her story next!
The pacing kept me turning pages the whole time. I loved the slow build to happiness and the happily ever after the characters deserved. The romance was spot on and sexy!
This might just be my favorite of the series. Small town, grumpy sunshine, forced proximity, anxiety rep, dual POV, second chance romance, and so much more. I loved every second of this story and already I cannot wait to re-read it!
