A new Southern Roots standalone...  

Azalea Barnes has hated Drake Collins since the day he broke her teenaged heart.
Fast forward almost seven years later and her libido still hasn't gotten the memo.
Now they're frenemies... with benefits.
Which suits Azalea just fine. She gets what her body craves while keeping her heart safe.
Kind of.
Mostly.

Drake has loved Azalea since the day they met. He knows that she's his forever. Too bad she only sees him as a good time. He wants more. Needs more.
If only he could convince her that it's real this time. He's more determined than ever to prove to Azalea that chemistry like theirs doesn't exist only in the bedroom.

The odds may be against Drake, but he's prepared for an uphill battle.

Review

"Like sweet, Southern key lime pie, An Uphill Battle is perfect for those who like their books sweet but with some zing. The author's strong Southern voice and witty, off the cuff dialogue are a special treat, and peeking in on Myla Rose, Cash, and the baby is the cherry on top of this slice of heaven." -USA Today bestselling author Ella James

"LK Farlow's stories are so addictive. The push and pull between Azalea and Drake burned up my kindle and had my only wanting more. Every page was better than the last." -Contemporary Romance Author Jennifer Van Wyk

"Once again LK Farlow did not disappoint!! We met Drake and Azalea in Coming Up Roses where we could already feel the connection these two had. This is a story of the importance of communication in a relationship. It was an emotional, on the seat of your chair romance with a sweet southern twist! I cannot wait to see what's next in this series!!" -Goodreads reviewer

"Nobody writes sweet southern charm like L.K. Farlow. I fell in love with these characters in Coming Up Roses and that love only deepened in An Uphill Battle. LK's women are smart, her men are swoony, and her words are nothing short of beautiful. Drake and Azalea's story was the epitome of what a friends-to-lovers novel should be...a slow burn with enough sexual tension to ignite your kindle! I can't wait for book three!" -Megan Green, author

LK Farlow is a beautiful writer. Not only are her stories phenomenal in their plot and with their characters, but the words themselves are poetic. This is only her second book and I'm not going to lie, she puts more experienced authors to shame. There isn't a single aspect of this book that I didn't love." -B3 Book Blog

"Drake Collins is your next book boyfriend. Honest, sexy, and 100% in love with one woman, he sets hearts racing." -Andrea Johnston, author

"This frenemies to lovers romance will give you all the angsty, delicious feels the trope promises with the sweet southern flare I've come to depend on from Mrs. Farlow." -Heather M. Orgeron, author
