Family Reunion: My New Step-Cousin

Tasting notes

On a ranch where the relatives have gathered, Lea meets Jake, her new step-cousin, in a room where neither of them should be. She is not worried, because they are only sort of related, and her boyfriend is busy admiring a colt. Episode 1 is a game of banter at the edge of the party, ending with a plan for a sunrise tour of the grounds. Episode 2 slips into the quiet corner while the boyfriend is just outside, calling her name, and Lea reminds Jake that quiet is a skill.

Flavor profile

Lea sets the pace and enjoys the risk, Jake plays the quiet one and finds out it suits him. The line crossed is a family reunion. Free episodes stay with flirting, close calls and muffled laughter.

Allergy advice Contains: hay, horses, one oblivious boyfriend and thin barn walls. May contain traces of saddle soap and bad excuses.

Best enjoyed Perfect for a country weekend where everyone is dressed for the barbecue and thinking about something else.
