Review: How to Raise an Honest Rabbit (Granby Knitting #2)

How to Raise an Honest Rabbit - Amy Lane

Hurt/comfort!!!
description

This was just wonderful. I LOVE a slow burning romance, where the hurt one is so skittish that the other one has to be patient if he wants doesn’t want to scare the hurt one away.

And this was so the case here. Jeremy has grown up with a con man as a father. He has known no other life than this. So when he witnesses his father getting shot when Jeremy is 26, he has no idea what to do now. He eventually ends up in prison for two years, but after that he’s homeless.

He is lucky he runs into Crawford, the owner of the apace farm where they make yarn. Crawford offers him an honest job.

Jeremy has a hard time adjusting to his new life. He is happy he has a roof over his head, since Crawford offered him a small back room with a shower, just so he can save enough money for an apartment. But Jeremy has learned never to trust someone, and to always expect to walk away at any moment.

But slowly he learns to trust that Crawford won’t fire him. And 18 year old Aiden helps too. Jeremy cannot help but fall in love with Aiden a little every day they work together. But Aiden is too young, and Jeremy doesn’t deserve someone as good as Aiden.

But after working together for two years, and having been friends for that long, Aiden takes the plunge and kisses Jeremy..

I absolutely loved this. Jeremy was such a hurt soul. He might be 28 at the beginning of this story, but he has no real experience with other people, or with friendships.

I loved how Aiden slowly awaited his time for when he could sweep Jeremy off his feet. Although Aiden was younger, it was clear he was more put together than Jeremy.

We got some nice sweet, yet steamy scenes in the last part. (These guys were both virgins when they get together, so yay!)

This was a sweet hurt/comfort with a slooooooow burning romance. I loved it and I just know I will be reading this again and again.

I wouldn't recommend reading this as a stand-alone. Read the first book before this one.
