4/5 stars

This book was everything I needed for another small town romance. I absolutely adore every single man that B.K. Borison writes and could fall in love with them over and over again.

This book is one of those Hallmark films of the big city boy turning to the small town life for the girl he’s obsessed with and it’s everything it needed to be, even if the premise itself isn’t new. Nova’s character was incredible with the representation of a good family dynamic that is burdened by expectation and the representation of chronic migraines. On the other hand, Charlie was also a really good representation of the not-so-good side of family relationships and how sometimes your found family is better than the one you were born into.

This series as a whole is so feel good and I will politely (but aggressively) recommend this series to everyone!

4.5 stars. I love this! A brilliant final book in Inglewild. I really enjoyed the contrast between Nova and Charlie and the banter between them, it was nice to see how the set up from the other books progressed and how clueless they were to how obvious their feelings were. Charlie is an ultimate book boyfriend who would do anything for her and I loved the ADHD rep from him. He was so sweet and I adored all the things he did for everyone. The growth of the bothe of them was great and how they managed to allow themselves to be happy! I am sad that this is the end but I'll definitely be rereading all the books again! I also can't wait to see what BK Borison has coming up next!

Nova Porter is comfortable in her solitude and likes the quiet. However, due to her anxiousness about opening her Tattoo studio in her hometown where she grew up and where all her favorite people live she needs something to soothe it and a hookup might just be the solution coz Nova is NOT looking for a relationship. Here comes Charlie Milford, he is the biggest flirt on this planet 💓, charming, and charismatic. He is the opposite of Nova and has been in and out of her life for some time coz he lives in New York and he's Stella's brother and her brother's best friend 🙉🙈.
It was supposed to be a one-night stand for both to get it out of their system, which then led to a #BusinessCasual relationship with no strings attached and no expectations. Will they be able to keep it casual? 🤔🤭🫣
THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!! 😍 😍 I can't express enough how it made me feel. It hooked me from start to finish and I was over the moon about Charlie & Nova💃🏻❤️.
Their friendship and then how their feelings grew for each other slowly and beautifully 😍. The found family troop is my favorite and it was portrayed nicely. Charlie's character and how it developed and the way he opened up and flourished, the same applies to Nova it was all perfect. Thank you so much to @netgalley and the publisher for granting me an ARC of #BusinessCasual in exchange for my honest review.

✨Business Casual - BK Borison ✨

This is the fourth and final instalment in the Lovelight series and what a way to wrap it up!

🏡 Family and small town community are such a strong component of this book and what makes the whole Lovelight series feel like a warm cosy hug. I loved the development of both Charlie and Nova’s characters.

🪩💃🏼I wish the big moment had been a little more grand but I suppose this fits with Charlie and Nova’s understated relationship.

🥺Charlie is that Golden retriever guy who falls first which I really enjoyed whilst a Nova is opposite in her closed off nature.

I will miss the Lovelight universe and can definitely see myself diving back in when in need of a comfort read 🥰

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Oh this was cute!
I absolutely adore the community in this series. The friendships in this series are strong and is an important theme throughout.

I loved how Charlie's insecurities were given as much notice and attnetion as Nova's. I love their relationship, I loved how they navigated from being friends with benefits to being so much more.

Absolutely adore this series.

B.K. Borison is a very famous author when it comes to small town romances, and I was fascinated to be able to read it for the first time.

It's been quite a journey to travel through this charming little town to meet Nova and Charlie, who as far as I know, meet at the beginning of a friends wedding, and turn into a one night stand to blow off some steam from the stress they're going through in their respective careers.

They have been interesting characters that show us that evolution from friends with benefits to something more, sharing confidences and concerns, dreams and goals.

With super fun scenes and shenanigans, you really enjoy reading about Nova starting her business and Charlie establishing his position in the financial industry.

What a great time I had reading this story, now I'm even more looking forward to reading the previous books.

I received this copy for an advance review, so thank you to Pan MacMillian and Netgalley Publishing for this opportunity.

*3.5 stars

I really liked being back in this small town once again! It was so lovely seeing the characters pop up from the previous books! I also really liked Charlie - I love that he was low-key obsessed with Nova (in a non-creepy way) and I also enjoyed the lack of a third act conflict! We love to see it!

However, I honestly found it a bit boring! I feel like there wasn’t a lot to the relationship to merit an entire book dedicated to them! Like I feel like there was a lot of smut to make up for a lack of development of the relationship. And my biggest ick with this book was the use of ‘Nova girl’ as a nickname. Hate hate hate, loathe entirely.

It was fun, sweet and steamy, but ultimately the first book in the series was my favourite by far.

In "Business Casual," B.K. Borison wraps up the Lovelight series with a steamy, heartwarming finale. Nova Porter, a tattoo artist, and Charlie Milford, an uptight investment banker, navigate an unexpected attraction.
Borison skillfully balances scorching sexual tension and tender emotions, making their one-night proposition unforgettable. The story thrives on witty banter and the vibrant backdrop of Inglewild, blending familiar faces with fresh dynamics.
Nova and Charlie's evolving relationship feels authentic and engrossing. This is Borison's best work yet, offering a perfect blend of angst, charm, and romance.
Fans of the series will adore this captivating conclusion.

Thank you PanMacmillan and NetGalley for providing me with this arc in exchange for an honest review.

Do you know the feeling you get when you finish a good romance book and you have the sudden urge to inhale and read it again. That's this book, like a plate of chocolate eclairs I would happily devour a second time. I love adding books to my favourite romances shelf and this is one of them.

Nova and Charlie are such an endearing couple , and the moments they shared throughout the book are so wholesome, fun at times and vulnerable at others. This is such a wonderful conclusion to the Lovelight Farms series. If you love small town romances then be sure to pick this book and entire series up. I cannot recommend it enough.

One thing about me, is that I love Lovelight Farms. I adored the first three books in the series when I first read them about two years ago. So I was so excited when the fourth book was announced, even more excited to see it was going to center Nova and Charlie. I loved when Charlie made appearances in the other books and thought him and Nova would make an excellent couple. And while their love story had cute moments, I am SO SAD to say this one is not for me. It didn't live up to my expectations (maybe that was the problem), and I had a lot of trouble actually caring for them as a couple.

My main issue is that the whole "friends with benefits" was too fast. As readers we are supposed to believe that they have been flirting and being friendly even before the events of the book, which sure, but I had trouble believing that they were actually friends and knew each other before sleeping together. After they sleep together (which I didn't like how the spice was written in this one), the rest of the story was just boring. They had issues individually that I did appreciated and enjoy watching them get through them, but other than that, the heart and magic that the other books had, was IMO nowhere to be found in this one. Yes, there are cute scenes, and cute moments between them (the tattoo being one of them), but other than that, I just couldn't feel any chemistry. There were moments that the story felt repetitive. The same issue over and over again, Charlie with the "I'm not enough" and Nova with the "I am not perfect.", both of them gave me the "I am not like the others" vibe and I just...no!

Maybe after release I will check out audiobook to see if it makes a difference but for now, this book was just not it for me and I am so so sad about it.

I absolutely adored this book and I'm finding it hard to put my feelings into words. Please bear with me if this review seems a bit all over the place. I want to start by expressing my gratitude to Pan Macmillan and B.K. Borison for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. It came into my life at just the right time.

This story resonated with me on so many levels. At times, it felt like I was reading about myself, and at others, it felt like a soothing balm for my soul. The central romance between Charlie Milford, a high-stakes executive, and Nova Porter, a tattoo artist, was captivating. Their decision to have a one-night fling to explore their mutual attraction leads to an unexpected depth of connection. As Charlie temporarily stays in town to assist his sister, their paths continue to intersect in the small community of Inglewild, leading to further complications.

I particularly loved Charlie's character. His struggles with ADHD and his tendency to prioritize others' happiness over his own deeply resonated with me. While I wish the portrayal of ADHD had been explored more deeply, I always appreciate seeing characters with this condition as it helps me feel a stronger connection to them.

As the youngest of four siblings, I also related to Nova's desire to make her eldest sibling proud. Both she and I understand the weight of wanting to live up to their expectations, especially considering their role as a parental figure in our lives. Witnessing these two characters, each with their own emotional wounds, slowly find healing in each other and fall in love was truly beautiful. It serves as a reminder that it's okay to feel lonely, to be vulnerable with your partner, and to desire independence within a relationship.

I highly recommend giving this book a chance. I can assure you, it won't disappoint.

I was so happy to be back with this series. I loved the first 2 and this one did not disappoint. I loved the characters just as much as the other books and it was nice to see them all back together again. The spice is just as spicy in this one too so if you enjoyed that you won’t be disappointed!

The combination of reverse grumpy meets sunshine, opposites attract, friends with benefits, and friends to lovers tropes forms a secret formula that makes this book extra entertaining, addictive, steamy, but surprisingly sentimental and genuine, just like the other books in the series.

Often when you read a book you anticipate so much, you always pick it up with that little sliver of doubt or apprehension. That was very much the case for me with this book, I went into it knowing it will be the last Lovelight Farm book and that alone made me a little sad as well. So all these things were swirling in my mind before opening the book, and let me just say, all of that dissapeared the MOMENT I read the first page.
B.K Borison has such a talent for utter transportation and her small town romances do the thing that I feel is essential when writing a small town romance, which is for the town or the setting itself to feel like a character and she accomplishes that here flawlessly, from the nosy neighbors to the beautiful setting I was transported and I loved every second.
Now, Charlie and Nova, where to even begin? I loved them, I loved them separately and I loved them together, I was rooting for them from the start. I'm not ashamed to say these two had me crying near the end.

This book had me smiling like a loon, crying like a fountain and swooning like a mid century debutante. Im sad to see this series end, but it is a bittersweet sad, Im so happy all these characters found their happy

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5

"Business Casual" by B.K. Borison is an absolute delight! From the very first page, I was captivated by the refreshingly different storyline and well-developed characters. As a fan of tattoos, I connected on a deeper level with Nova. Her vibrant personality and unique style brought an authentic edge to the story. Charlie is such a unique male character; I don’t think I’ve read anyone like him before. His depth and subtle charm were a refreshing change from typical romantic leads.

One of my favorite parts of the book was seeing Nova take the lead in grand gestures. It was invigorating to see the female protagonist stepping up and making bold moves, a refreshing twist from the usual romance trope where the male character takes this role. Borison's casual and friendly tone makes the book an easy and enjoyable read, perfectly balancing humor and heart. The plot is engaging and unique, keeping me hooked until the very end. Whether you're a fan of contemporary fiction or just looking for something new and refreshing, this book is a must-read. Highly recommended!

What a little gem this was! I went into it, half expecting it was yet another small-town romance, that would get me out of a reading slump. What I got, was a love story I will gladly read over and over again.

Charlie and Nova were absolutely wonderful. Charlie with his golden retriever energy, ready to do anything for the people he love and Nova being the ultimate bada**. Both with their own struggles, trying to find a place where they belong.

If the “he falls first” trope is your favorite and you simply cannot resist a well-written cinnamon roll MMC, this one is for you.

If you're looking for a great palette cleanser between fantasy books or just need a heartwarming and sweet romance, I think you should definitely give this one a chance!

Thank you NetGalley for the E-arc in exchange for an honest review.

This was an amazing end to one of my most favourite series I’ve read! Nova and Charlie’s chemistry was everything, I loved their banter and their sweet moments. Plus I loved seeing the other couples from the previous books! Honestly just a perfect read!

I loved this novel. It was easy to follow and had a great cast of characters. I kept rooting for them to get together. A brilliant novel that I highly recommend.

ARC Review

4:75⭐️

Tropes ~ friends to lovers, black cat/golden retriever, brothers best friend , small town

✨ I have adored this series so much and I’m so sad it’s come to and end but what a perfect book to end it with. The story was so beautiful and I felt so connected to both these characters, I wish we could stay at lovelight farms forever!!

✨I already liked Charlie from the previous books but I fell in love with him straight away in this book. I felt like we really got to understand him in this book and my heart broke for him so much. I loved Nova and the way she was with Charlie , it was obvious to everyone around them that they were inevitable and I loved seeing their friendship grow to love. Their chemistry was off the charts from the beginning and they were just so much fun to read about.

✨ I loved seeing the other couples and getting a glimpse into the future with them, I really have enjoyed this entire series and I can’t wait to see what’s next for B.K Borison

3.75

Tattoo artist Nova, Beckett's little sister (book 2) and financial advisor Charlie, Stella's older brother (book 1) start a 'Business Casual' arrangement. Neither of them are looking for anything serious but both need to relieve some tension.

Lovelight Farms still remains my favourite of the series but this is definitely a close second! Nova and Charlie felt like one of the most realistic couples of the series, but I did find their story a little...bland. This is definitely not a plot heavy book so if you love the characters, you'll probably love the book!

The smut was definitely smutting in this one!

I think Fans of the Lovelight Series may disappointed that we don't get an extended epilogue saying goodbye to all their favourite characters. I was hoping to see how they were all doing 10 years down the line.

Overall, I loved book 1 and it feels like BK Borison put her heart and soul into that one. However, the sequels have felt lacklustre in comparison and don't stand out against other small town romances that I have read.

Book Includes:
- Dual POV
- Small Town Romance
- Friends-with-benefits-to-lovers
- Playboy MMC
- ADHD Rep

I received an advanced copy for free through NetGalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
