La Finca by Bea Green
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In Las Nevadas, of southern Spain, Sebastian Ortez is determined to return a dilapidated and run-down farmhouse and the surrounding olive farm into its former glory. He meets several characters throughout the novel, one of the most poignant one being Nuria, the Head Gardener and he struggles with his immense feelings for her when he simply wants to finish this project.
The beauty of rural southern Spain is brought out in this novel, a romance gives some tension to the story of determination and perseverance in the face of adversity. This was not a thrilling tale, but a slow and steady story about human nature. I liked it very much.
