Frankie and Danny have to help their siblings out with the upcoming wine harvest due to a difficult pregnancy. Frankie thinks Danny is an annoying jerk due to their first encounter at her sister’s wedding and is determined at first to give him a hard time.

This rom com has a cute premise and some good banter and romance, but I felt like it was longer than it needed to be. A lot of time was devoted to each character’s parental issues.

I did appreciate reading about a FMC who was neither a teenager or a size 4 fashion model!

Thanks to NetGalley for this eARC!

I loved how this started out - never challenge worse, because worse is always listening.

Frankie ends up back on her childhood vineyard helping her sister when she's put on bedrest while pregnant. Frankie's glad to be helping, until she finds out that her brother in law also asked his brother and now they're there together. They've had a bad relationship and she dreads their time together. They clash and have a flash of a spark. The dialog is fun, the characters are entertaining and it's a fun story.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a temporary, digital ARC in return for my review.

DNF at 6%. I think this is more of a me problem, than an author problem, but I found this book hard to read. The sentence structure feels more like rambling thoughts than a storyline. The synopsis of this book sounded fun and the cover is cute but ultimately I couldn't get past the way it was reading in my head with all the periods and commas.

I enjoyed this light hearted, entertaining story full of steam and banter! It was such a fun story dealing with romance and family! I am definitely picking up more books by this author.

Frankie Armstrong returns to her family vineyard reluctantly, ready to help her sister but not thrilled about the memories that come flooding back. Enter Danny Durant, the annoyingly attractive, cocky brother-in-law she’s forced to work alongside. Sparks fly as Frankie’s initial dislike for Danny morphs into something more intense, making for a fun and fiery read. It’s a story about family, facing the past, and, of course, unexpected romance that might just make you believe in love after all. If you’re in the mood for a lighthearted, steamy romance set against the lush backdrop of a California vineyard, this book is a treat.

I really enjoyed the playful dynamic between the characters—the banter was witty and fun. The book was beautifully written, and the story was engaging, but the romance just didn’t resonate with me. It’s more of a personal preference than a reflection of the book itself. I just couldn’t fully connect with it. That said, I would definitely recommend it to others! Thank you to the ARC program via NetGalley for giving me the chance to share my honest feedback on the book.

I enjoyed the banter and the premise of the story, and I think the book was really well written (and done in a very believable way, which was incredibly refreshing). However, sadly this book was not for me. This is very much a me problem, but the romance aspect fell flat and didn't have that oomph that would make it exciting.
Also, I personally am not a big fan of penis pet names and it was used so frequently throughout the book, so that really contributed heavily to me not vibing with the couple as it kept taking me out of the headspace I wanted to stay in.
I would still recommend this book to others though as I definitely think a lot of people will adore this story.

Thank you so much to HarperCollinns UK(One More Chapter) for this ARC via NetGalley, and for giving me the opportunity to share my honest thoughts on the book.

A great story . Frankie and Danny have to spent the next 6 weeks at her family's vineyard because her sister is having problem with her pregnacy and they must help with the harvest . Their attraction is evident and all her sister's friends comment on it so they give it a chance to see where it goes . They both have issues with a parent and feeling like they must prove themselves . Will her insecurities let her lose the only man she ever loved ?
I received this book from netgalley , the author and the publicer as an ARC . Thank you . All thoughts and opinions are my own .

I have-not read the other books from this series but I plan to! This was an entertaining story, and I enjoyed the character's banter throughout. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.
