Fans of Nora Roberts, Robyn Carr, and Debbie Macomber, will love this heartfelt romantic drama set in the heart of North Carolina's beautiful wine country where a unique vineyard, passed down through one family's generations. Attempting to save their business, the Anderson women vow to turn some negative press into a golden opportunity by pairing the perfect wine to a grumpy critic. Life hasn't turned out quite the way twenty-eight-year-old single mom Mia Anderson expected. But she's always been able to count on the sanctuary of her family's Hidden Valley Vineyard, now operated by her two aunts and herself. Like the Anderson women before them, they've all had bad luck with men and the vineyard has been home and provider. Yet now, inflation and changes in spending habits are challenging them as never before. So, the women embark on a bold plan . Mia and her aunts take jobs at a local shipping warehouse, putting every extra cent toward throwing an extravagant retreat for a VIP and guest.

A glowing, high-profile review will surely breathe new life into their business. And it does--until a scathing post derails everything. Determined to turn things around, Mia makes the critic an offer she's certain will change his mind . Cynical wine banker Jackson Hall prides himself on his brutally honest assessments. He never expected his negative review to prompt the vintner to invite him back so she could pair him with "his perfect wine." Most of all, he didn't anticipate he'd fall for the valley--and the beautiful, defiant vintner herself. Nor did Mia expect to find a world-weary, heartbroken man beneath Jackson's gruff exterior. A man whose desire to love again is as strong as hers.

Business and pleasure may not mix, yet Mia and Jackson long to take a chance again, if only they can find a way to trust each other .
