Step one: build a new tasting room . . . uh, yesterday.
Step two: dodge PR disasters while wrangling her eccentric family.
Too bad her contractor turns out to be Clay Henderson.
Her ex’s best friend. The most forbidden guy in her orbit.
The old Clay was a wild blend of bad decisions and bar fights.
But new Clay is sober, serious, and sexier than a cellar-aged cabernet.
Too bad he’s still off-limits.
And Reese has her hands full already.
Between her pot-growing grandpa, her parents behaving like smitten teens,
and an alpaca with a groin-butting vendetta,
Reese needs more drama like she needs bonus holes in her wine barrels.
But Clay’s steady presence—paired with a bad-boy-gone-good vibe—
has Reese spiraling faster than a busted corkscrew.
One taste proves forbidden fruit only gets better with age.
But the past—just like love—can’t stay bottled up forever.
And everything Clay and Reese have built could come crashing down around them.
One-click this hilarious and heartfelt small-town romance featuring forbidden love, chaotic family vibes, and a slow-burn second chance worth savoring.
