This story is quite different from other EE's story I've read and to be honest I prefer her comedic story than this.

So why 2*?
David Fisher wasn't a likeable character it's on the verge of asshole.
He keeps comparing his time with his deceased wife when he's with Christie.
Duudee.... if you didnt enjoy having sex with your deceased wife it's not entirely her fault, it's you that not got balls big enough to be who you really are!
And there's time when he remember he traveled with his wife and daugh ...more

Loved this story and couldn't put it down. Engaging characters who hooked me in within the first few paragraphs. The setting is described really well and was easy to imagine. This is the first story I've read by this author but won't be the last.

I had a pleasure to enjoy A Second Harvest as audiobook. I'm glad it was released in this edition. Af for the book itself, it was good work by Eli Easton. Personally a bit boring from the plotted point. And then at the end with gay bashing, that part was terrible, mostly because we didn't get what happened after. Sure there are some information about it in the epilogue. But for me it was to undeveloped and weak. Ending was full of HEA, but again, how did that happiness happen, its a mystery.
