Publisher's summary
Malachi Booth is a supermodel. He’s used to moving about the world, sleeping with whoever takes his fancy, and watching the money roll in. The last place he expects to find himself is on a run-down farm in Cornwall, but a bad bout of bronchitis means that he’s stuck there. The only compensation for this dismal state of affairs is that the farmer is very good looking, even if he’s the grumpiest person that Malachi has ever met.
Cadan Landry’s farm has been in his family for hundreds of years but that doesn’t make it any easier to make ends meet. As a consequence, Cadan could be called grumpy. Most men would consider a supermodel collapsing at their feet while dressed in the skimpiest pair of briefs ever made to be a sign of good fortune. Cadan just resents the fact that the young man is taking up space in his cow field.
These two men are from different worlds, but can they ever meet in the middle?
From best-selling author Lily Morton comes a novella about snarky models, misconceptions, and finding a home in the most unlikely of places.

Story
Magnus Carlsen is determined to grow old disgracefully. At 52, he doesn’t believe in keeping anything. Men, sofas, books—everything gets jettisoned, eventually. He’s divided his life into happy compartments. A successful trial lawyer, he spends his days lecturing jurors, exasperating judges, and striding arrogantly around courtrooms. He fills his nights with a parade of handsome young men who want to make him happy. Why date someone his own age to discuss back pain, retirement planning, and corns when he can date men who don’t care to discuss anything at all?

Arlo Wright’s introduction to his sexuality came when he saw his older brother’s best friend, Jack Cooper, in his sweaty football kit. Unfortunately, he didn’t have long to enjoy the revelation because he promptly knocked himself out on a table. Relations between them have never really moved on from that auspicious beginning. Arlo is still clumsy, and Jack is still as handsome and unobtainable as ever. However, things look like they’re starting to change when Arlo finds himself sharing a room with Jack while on holiday in Amsterdam at Christmas.

Or at least he was until he finds himself snowed in at a remote Scottish hotel with the wedding party from hell, a terrible ABBA tribute band, and his soon-to-be ex-husband.

Story
It can safely be said that Lord Barnaby Greenwood is not having the best of Christmases. He’s penniless, up to his eyeballs in debt, and about to lose his estate. Therefore, it’s hardly surprising that when a local property developer offers a lot of money to buy King’s Wood from him, Barnaby is very tempted. But his father had always impressed on him that the green wood was sacred and must be protected at all costs, so he finds himself saying no.

Two long years of insults, and having to redo the coffee pot four times in the mornings to meet his exacting standards.

Oz Gallagher does not do relationships well. Bored and jobless after another disastrous hook up, he decides to leave London for a temporary job in the wilds of Cornwall. Surely managing a stately home on a country estate will be easier than navigating the detritus of his relationships at home. Six months there will alleviate a bit of his wanderlust and then he can come back to London as footloose and fancy free as the day he left it. However, when he gets there, he finds a house in danger of crumbling to the ground and a man who is completely unlike anyone he’s ever met.

Wells: The first thing I notice about Conor Newell when he sits down in my high-rise conference room is how delightfully nervous he is. Then I see his tie. The same geeky tie that’s held hostage on my phone. The one that belongs to my anonymous late-night texter. And it changes everything.

The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

It can safely be said that Lord Barnaby Greenwood is not having the best of Christmases. He’s penniless, up to his eyeballs in debt, and about to lose his estate. Therefore, it’s hardly surprising that when a local property developer offers a lot of money to buy King’s Wood from him, Barnaby is very tempted. But his father had always impressed on him that the green wood was sacred and must be protected at all costs, so he finds himself saying no.

A Beautifully Enthralling Story Fabulously Told!
Lily Morton never ceases to amaze me with her wonderful writing style, witty dialogue and brilliant mind. This fabulous opposites attract romantic comedy, grabbed my attention right from the start, and held it for the entire book. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they were easy to care about too. I adored both lead characters, the snarky model Malachi Booth and the grumpy farmer, Cadan Landry. Malachi was not feeling well, but that did not stop him from going to his photo shoot on a farm in Cromwell. The farm did not impress him, but the farmer was nice to look at, though not friendly or nice. After his makeup artist works her magic, he is ready to go, but he does not last very long and the next thing he knows he is waking up in an unfamiliar bed with an unfamiliar woman hovering over him and only has vague memories of what happened. After he passed out, Cadan called the doctor and brought him into the house to get checked out and the doctor said he needed to be on bed rest until he recovered. Cadan busy with farm work had his mother come to help nurse him back to health, and she stayed until he was well enough. She could see there was something between her son and Malachi despite her son not seeing it yet. A still recuperating, Malachi was going to leave when she left, but Caden said he could stay longer, yep he was growing on him. Ir was great watching these two spending time together getting to know each other. I thought they were great together and for each other. And that cooking scene had me rolling on the floor laughing. This wonderfully plotted story has the perfect balance of drama, humor, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn, but so worth the wait romance. Lily Morton, thank you for another amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride, loved your spring strings concept too.
🎧📚🎧 And for the exceptional narration, once again Joel Leslie delivers an outstanding performance bring Lily Morton’s characters and story to life. It sounds like she makes these roles just for him because he is such a natural in each one of those roles. He switches roles effortlessly, never missing a beat, and handles the witty dialogue with ease and lands the humor with perfection. You could hear how much heart he puts into his performance as he captures the character’s emotions and projects them into his performance. Joel Leslie is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank your another amazing listen.

4.5 stars- Fun, snark, and a sweet romance
Spring Strings is as enjoyable a listen as it was a read. Although this is a shorter story, the character and romantic development are in place, and I found myself caught up in the story for a second time.
Malachi and Cadan seemingly come from two different worlds. I love how this story merges those worlds and then plucks similarities shared by both men to establish a relationship born of care and understanding. As always, this author includes a good amount of intimacy in the story, but it never feels superfluous, instead enhancing the romance and chemistry the couple shares. With a beautiful setting and lovely characters, there is a lot to enjoy about Spring Strings. However, by far, my favorite part is just how easy the dialogue and writing style pull me in and make me laugh and smile. I love the snark and playful banter and coupled with an easy-to-read style. It’s a winning combination that will keep me coming back again and again.
Lily Morton definitely has a specific tone that makes her books work for me as a reader, and Joel Leslie always seems to be a good fit. His delivery of the author’s clever, sunny wit was on point, and I especially liked how he brought Malachi’s lively energy and sarcastic remarks to the forefront of each scene.
If you enjoy stories of opposites attract and love some good back-and-forth banter in your romances, Spring Strings is a fantastic listen that is sure to pass your day away with some laughs and smiles.

I adore Mal and Caden! The snark flies in the Cornwall countryside as the super model and the farmer find common ground and fall in love, whether they mean to or not! Perfect example of Lily Morton’s fabulous characters and storytelling and Joel Leslie’s stellar narration skills! Definitely worth a listen!

Love Mal!
This is a quick, sweet read that gives us a little bit more information about Caden and Mal who we met in the Mixed Messages series (Jude and Asa are mentioned in this book).
Mal and Caden’s story happens all because of Mal’s agent and thank God for her. She cut through all their crap and helped them see what they needed. They are very sweet together and I adored how Caden protected and stood up for Mal. Mal was finally able to be himself with Caden and on his farm.
Their happily ever after is as sweet as can be and I love how they make their very different lives work together.
Joel Leslie is brilliant as always!

Delicious Banter
Such a fun opposites attract story. Malachi is a bratty supermodel who falls ill on a shoot that n a farm in Cornwall. Cadan is a grumpy farmer who ends up reluctantly nursing him back to health. Neither man is too happy with the situation, yet neither seems to want it to end. Both have baggage, because…romance novel. But the author uses it sparingly to move the couple forward at a nice pace. Side characters were fun and helped with the plot. Joel Leslie’s narration is always amazing, and his British accent is perfectly done.

Lily Morton and Joel Leslie deliver
Spring Strings is the perfect example of a snarky, previously semi-peripheral MC who was kind of disliked but absolutely steals the show and melts your heart. Seriously, total and complete mush. Malachi may be my new favorite (fictional) character - certainly amongst my top favorite characters, right up there with Jude and Oz and…okay, okay I love ALL of Lily Morton’s characters. But I digress. Malachi and Cadan shouldn’t work but when it comes right down to it, they work perfectly because after you get past their snarky, battered outer layers, both have the gooey center like a perfectly made chocolate truffle. The image of an 18 year old Mal standing in front of his agent-to-be with shaking hands…well, gobsmacked. Cadan and Malachi deserve their HEA. Joel Leslie delivers and Lily Morton has done it again. Buy the book and the audio because you won’t want to put it down even when you’re supposed to, you’ll thank me later.

Good story, but *5-star* narration
I listened to two books back-to-back, not realizing that Joel Leslie read both until later. I’ve listened to a number of books read by him, and he is an incredible voice actor. I never have those moments of confusion trying to figure out who is speaking, much less their gender, when he is the narrator. I am convinced he could read the phone book and make it sound interesting.
The book itself is a standard romance, and not Lily Morton’s best. (I like The Mysterious and Amazing Blue Billings better, although it has a lower rating. That one is a ghost story, spooky without being gory.) But if you want romance with a guarantee of a happily ever after (which I do), then Lily Morton is a sure bet. If you want it mixed with mystery, Alice Winters works, too. Both are wonderful if you want to avoid depressing fiction. I don’t know why the arty crowd insists on sad endings.
Again, amazing narration — no, make that voice acting.
