Erin Mallon and Chris Brinkley narrate different viewpoints in this debut romance. In rural Pennsylvania, the Brady family is revitalizing a long-neglected vineyard and winery. Mallon tells Rowan McKinnon’s story with bravado that springs from the cynicism she uses to hide childhood trauma and a disastrous engagement. Brinkley shares Harrison Brady’s viewpoint in measured tones as he returns from California to join the family project while struggling to deal with the unexpected death of a patient. When these two damaged people meet, sparks fly. Rowan’s botany doctorate lands her a job transforming the vineyard into a working business, guaranteeing that she and Harry will be thrown together often. Will it lead to a healing happily-ever-after? N.E.M. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine

“Heart-warming, sensual, beautifully written.”-Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis
Two imperfect people. One year under the sun. A love story you won't ever forget.
Rowan McKinnon doesn't believe in love. With a botany PhD, two best friends who embrace her social quirkiness, and some occasional no-strings sex, she has everything she needs. But she hides deep wounds from the past-from an emotionally negligent mother, and a fiancé who treated her like a pawn in a game. When an academic setback leads Rowan to take on the restoration of a winery's abandoned vineyard, she relishes the opportunity to restore the grapes to their former glory.
She does not expect to meet a man like Harrison Brady.
An obstetrician profoundly struggling after losing a patient, Harry no longer believes he is capable of keeping people safe. Reeling, Harry leaves Los Angeles to emotionally recover at his parents' new vineyard in Pennsylvania.
He does not expect to meet a woman like Rowan McKinnon.
As their combative banter gives way to a simmering tension, sunlight begins to crack through the darkness smothering Harry's soul. He's compelled to explore the undeniable pull between them. And after a lifetime of protecting herself from feeling anything, for anyone, Rowan tries to keep things casual.
But even she can't ignore their explosive connection.
"A lushly drawn portrait of two people with a magnetic, soul-deep connection."-New York Times bestselling author Rachel Lynn Solomon
