She pictures a relaxing oasis. He sees food for the less fortunate. They both claim the same backyard. Family lawyer Sadie Guthrie snaps up a heritage house with a backyard perfect for relaxing with her caramel espresso and cinnamon rolls. Now some guy is digging in her garden and thinks he has a claim to it. For vegetables! Too bad he doesn’t realize he’s taken on a veggie-hating attorney in her den.

Urban farmer Peter Santoro had a deal with his elderly neighbor to cultivate her yard for his business, but when she dies and the property is sold, the new owner refuses to honor it. Peter is torn between his need for income and an attraction to the hard-hitting, plus-size lawyer, but is his interest for all the wrong reasons?

What’s a guy to do when his arch enemy invites him to escort her to a fundraiser for his favorite charity? And how can Sadie ever trust that an active guy like Peter could actually fall for an unhealthy girl like her?

"I am blown away by Radishes. I feel like you wrote that for me."
"Thank you sooooo much for tackling the "obese" subject in such a sensitive, true & Christlike way. It really hit home to me."

RAINDROPS ON RADISHES is the sixth story in the Urban Farm Fresh Romance series, an off-shoot of the original Farm Fresh Romances.

About the Urban Farm Fresh Romance Series

These urban farming stories explore what a city neighborhood focused on local food might look like: raising goats, chickens, and bees in the heart of the city while sharing in food projects and engaging in each other’s lives. Oh, and falling in love!

5.0 out of 5 stars No body shaming. Just and honest look at weight in relation to health.
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2019

One of Valerie Comer's best 'romance' stories featuring a confident, capable, overweight heroine who struggles with a world of hurt after discovering she's adopted. Even though this is romantic fiction, Ms. Comer tackles the topics of weight and adoption with realism and integrity as her heroine sorts through her emotional struggles that affect her health and relationships. Fans of the Urban Farm Fresh series will revisit the Bridgewater community and see what their favorite couples are up to as well as cheer on Peter and Sadie as they struggle to find their happily ever after. After viewing some of the 'body shaming' scandals on social media this is a refreshing take on how persons of every size should cherish and care for their bodies, and not focus on the 'image' society tries to impose. My only complaint is that there wasn't a recipe for some of the great veggie dishes and desserts listed at the end of the story. I especially wanted to know how to cook radishes so they are sweet and tender and not hot and bitter! Perhaps Ms. Comer will write a Farm Fresh Cookbook that covers the dishes and beverages in her story that have made my mouth water over both series!

5.0 out of 5 stars Both a delightful read and a challenging look in the mirror...

Sadie Guthrie and I have a few things in common: short curls, a fondness for farmers, an addiction to coffee…as well as a struggle with body image and a tendency to turn to food when stressed.

Valerie Comer's books don't usually make me cry—but Raindrops on Radishes did. Valerie paints a vivid portrait of a curvy heroine who is loveable but far from perfect in the way she processes stress and sees relationships. Throughout the easy-to-read romance, Valerie deals gently but honestly with issues of diet, weight, and body image. (There are also some not to be missed word pictures of adoption.)

If you're already a fan of the Farm Fresh Romance series or the Urban Farm Fresh Romance series, you won’t want to miss a visit back to Green Acres Farm in Idaho—or catching up with the Santoro family around the Bridgeview neighborhood of Spokane. (Warning: it will make you want to re-read both series again, and make you even more excited for the next in the Montana Ranches series.)

But even if you've never met any of Valerie Comer's delightful characters before, Raindrops on Radishes is the perfect place to get started. Just drop by Bridgeview Bakery and ask for directions to Mrs. Essery's old house…

Living in a Michigan urban farm setting, I enjoy the premise of the Urban Farm Fresh and Farm Fresh Romance series. Even though I am an avid Valerie Comer reader, I was not fond of Sadie Guthrie's disrespect for her neighbor Peter Santoro. As a lawyer, I presumed she would be a good listener. As a Christian, love your neighbor as yourself. Maybe impossible with Sadie's self esteem issues due to her weight. The parable in the story - radishes, eggs, and coffee is unique. This romance maybe read as a stand alone.

Peter has been hoping to buy the elderly neighbors house where he’s gardening her back yard for a year. When he learns the neighbor has died and the estate quietly sold the house, along with the new neighbor refusing to let him garden in the back yard, he begins to figure out how he can keep that yard. He never planned on developing an interest in said neighbor, especially one who hates vegetables. Sadie has things to work through, including learning to love herself and work through some issues she’s been holding on to. Beautiful story about an important issue dealing with weight, accepting God’s love for us, and learning to love ourselves as He does.

When Sadie's health becomes a problem can she give up junk food and learn to like veggies? Not an easy task but what else can she do? This is an awesome story about how Sadie learns how to make better food choices... and other choices, too.

A backyard intruder, some awkward invites to be a plus one. A big girl, a broken ankle, trips to a farm with food nerds, how much better can it get? You will never be sorry to have picked up a book by Christian author and excellent storyteller Valerie Comer. Not just saying that because I have read about 30 of her books and been enjoying lots of her audiobooks either. Always clean, always sweet, always inspirational, always Christians, always God-honoring, always faith-filled. Can think of (m)any better way to spend your free time in Reading or listening to one of her books.

I loved this book in the Urban Farm Fresh series, just like I did the first 5. Peter finally finds his love, Sadie, but things don't go smoothly for them. Sadie is obese and hates vegetables; she lives in sugar and carbs. And veggies are Peter's life. The author addresses obesity, and also adoption, sensitively. The urban farm project is a really great idea, and reading about all the friends and the community that are involved is inspiring. Glad there's another book in the series.

And to put God first, always.

I like how the author took someone who was scared and had bad coping devices (I'm guilty of some of them) and taught her to trust the Lord.
