The Inn: Findlay Farm by Elsie James was the kind of read I was looking for. It has cowboys, curvier women, some struggle, a happy ending, and enough steam to keep you wanting more.

Summer Bradley is out of her element when her work sends her out to Findlay Farms to do a journalistic piece on them and the history of their farm. She decides to dress the part in the cutest cottage core or woodland fairy outfits that she can find. That is what a real farm girl wears after all, right?

What she doesn’t expect is to meet Jameson Findlay, the eldest and the one in charge. He is more than just stunningly attractive. He is as solid as they come but can Summer get past the gruff, no-nonsense, equal parts unsettling and pure comfort, grumpy yet somehow charming persona that he leads off with and meets the man underneath?

Maybe. If a huge snowstorm has anything to say about it. The steam factor goes into full effect after Summer tries to drive her Jeep out of the snowstorm to leave the farm. Jameson prevents her from leaving and gets her to stay in the big house with him until the snow melts.

Jameson and Summer appear to be opposites, but, in the end, they realize that they need each other after all.

This novella was a read that I struggled to take breaks from reading. I was caught up in Summer and Jameson. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the Findlay Farm series as well as a few other Elsie James books I was able to find.
