A Viñedo Valley Romance

When Tierney Diaz grudgingly accompanies her best friend to Oregon’s lush Willamette Valley wine country, all she wants is peace, quiet, and a coffee shop in which to work in solitude. She has her reasons for not being a drinker and not wanting to be around drinkers, and frankly, she’s not looking for a woman, either. But she can’t help but notice the captivating local woman who sweeps into the café like a warm breeze after a rainstorm, bringing smiles to everyone’s faces before, apparently, bustling down the street to…teach a yoga class? Huh. Well, if she has to crush on someone, at least it’s not one of the wine-mongers.
Beck Montalvo has always had good instincts. The youngest of four daughters born into a Napa wine empire, she started her own businesses—Beckon, a small, artisan winery focused on people, not the bottom line; and Breathe, the adjacent yoga studio where she connects to her community and herself. With crush in full swing and the yoga studio thriving, Beck doesn’t have time for romance…or mysteries. But when she sees the beautiful stranger in the coffee shop, her instincts tell her the cautious-eyed woman is the perfect candidate for some mind-clearing yoga and a glass of Beck’s best vintage—if she can break through her walls. The stranger’s a tough case, but Beck’s never backed down from a challenge yet…

Lea Santos has been concocting tall tales since she was a child, according to her mother. Usually these had to do with where she was, who she was with, and whether or not she’d finished her math homework (which she hadn’t). When it came time to pick a career, Lea waffled, then dabbled in everything from guiding tours in Europe, to police work, to bookkeeping for an exotic bird and reptile company—probably not the best choice, since (1) she never did finish that math, and (2) the Komodo dragons freaked her out. (A lot.) She eventually decided to go with her strengths and continue spinning wild stories, except this time, she’d turn them into whole books and call it a career. She rarely lies anymore about where she’s been or who she was with...
