All it took was one taste of that infuriating woman to feel her burning under my skin. What I didn’t count on was also losing my heart. Two days after a social media scandal, my billionaire father cut the cord and sent me packing. Even worse? I was left smack dab in the middle of Nowheresville, miles from my hideout at our company vineyard. That is, until I nearly got run down by a petite firecracker of a woman. Mia Manning couldn’t be more opposite the women I usually pursued. She’s mouthy. Curvy. With a side of contempt for my rich-boy ways. It was hardly love at first sight. But after one night of mind-blowing passion – she’s all I can think about. The problem? She’s the new manager of the vineyard. And I’m secretly here to “fake a job” ahead of our next launch. We try to pretend that night never happened, but the tension between us is like a cork ready to pop. I can’t reveal who I truly am - and she only plays by the rules. No fraternizing. But after feeling her body wrapped around mine, I can barely recall my former playboy life. All I want is Mia, and I will do whatever it takes to claim her – mind, body & soul.

This was honestly a cute read. This is about Lucas Fuller finding himself at his father’s vineyard. While along the way he meets Mia Manning, the manager at the vineyard, who is his boss because she doesn’t know that he’s actually her boss. They both try their hardest to stay away from each other but find it quite hard because of the attraction they feel for one another. While also trying to figure out whose been stealing money from the vineyard. Soon they realize that they can’t stay away from each other.

Risking it All

A very enjoyable read. Lucas needs to get away to find himself and literally gets run into by Mia. This is the start of their working and personal relationship which is intense. A mystery in the vineyard provides intrigue to the storyline that has you guessing and wanting to know what happens. Ex-girlfriend, ex-fiancé and hostile employees provide additional complications to further the story and provide background to the main characters. Wishing for more!

I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily leave this review.

Loved this book! I would get annoyed when I had to take a break because I wanted to know what would happen next. Can’t wait to read another book by this Author! It was a fantastic book it was a page-turner and the suspense was like WHAT!!!! I could not even stop reading this book and I was at the edge of my seat. I received this book from the author as an ARC and am happy to review it. A brilliant book that I totally loved and would thoroughly recommend hoping that others enjoy it as well as I did.

Great story!

Lucas was the son of Ethan, the owner of Fuller Winery. Mia was the manager at one of there winerys. She was good at her job. One night she almost ran down Lucas with her car, little did she know he was the bosses son. Lucas was sent there until a scandal went hush. Of course he changed his last name. You must read to find out that this is a great love story … in deed.

Predictable

This was pretty predictable all the way through. It was an easy read. But not something you would ever read again. No lasting impression. The spicy scenes were tame, and the book spent so much time detailing the wine but little time really detailing the characters. I wouldn’t recommend this book to anyone, but if you got it for free like I did, it is not horrible and it is an easy quick read.

This was so well written. I felt I was right there with Mia. All the bad things she went through in her life. Then she meets Lucas. What do all these books have in common? Love and this one is no different. The trials and tribulations of new love.

cute story

Just 2 bones to pick the first time Lucas introduced himself he used the last name Maxwell then later he switches to Miller
Huge gaping plot hole another vineyard opening nearby was mentioned then nothing…
Other than that great quick read

cute enough

Very simple storyline but delightful enough and a very easy and swift read. Not sure I will race to read any others.

After a social media scandal, his billionaire father sent him packing. While being in the middle of no where, he was almost ran over by a firecracker of a woman. Her name is Mia.Lucas being the person he is doesn't really thing twice about her. She's opposite of the women he usually goes to, but after realizing how mouthy and curvy she is, he was hooked. Lucas is a man of action and randomness. Mia is a follow the rules girl. Little dog they knoew their chemistry will allow them to become a crazy couple. After their bodies become one, Lucas will stop at nothing to claim her forever. This book was spicy! After the first touch, not only was Lucas hooked, but so is the reader. After her burning feeling, your book will be burning in your hands, and like Lucas claiming her, you'll claim the book. It was once you don't want to put down!
