Jade Gardner's life is on the brink of disaster. She and her golden retriever are on the verge of losing their home thanks to a two-year stretch of artist's block (hers, not the dog's). To make matters worse, she accidentally agreed to be a bridesmaid...in her ex-boyfriend's wedding.
An ill-timed bachelorette trip to the Finger Lakes is exactly what she doesn't need.
Everett Rhodes has put his own dreams on hold to take over the family winery. Competition is increasing and margins are getting smaller, but nothing will stop him from steering the business back on course. Especially not an impulsive, gorgeous hot mess with a backpack full of cheese and enough emotional baggage to fill a cargo hold.
Jade desperately needs a date to the wedding-also maybe a financial bootcamp. But she'll settle for a fake romance with the grumpy winemaker who needs to get his parents off his back about his lack of a love life.
It's only two weeks. Sure, they're complete opposites. But they can absolutely fake it for two weeks, especially since they don't seem to have to pretend about the whole physical attraction thing. What could possibly go horribly, horribly wrong?
