Tequila and Tulips

TEQUILA AND TULIPS
The Hamiltons, Book Thirteen

Elliott has always been the easygoing one.
The charming pilot. The shameless flirt. The man with a grin, a wink, and exactly the right line for every situation.
But after spending a year watching his father die, the smile doesn’t come quite as easily as it used to.

Delaney makes a living helping people see what they’re worth. She takes struggling wineries, overlooked artists, and fading brands and teaches them how to claim their place in the world.

She’s very good at recognizing potential.

She’s less interested in letting anyone look too closely at her own.

From the first time they meet, Elliott and Delaney recognize each other for exactly what they are: two players who know all the rules—and have no intention of being the first one to blink.

He thinks she’s interested in the pilot, even though she’s afraid of flying.

She thinks the flirtation is harmless, even though Elliott’s smile hides more than he wants anyone to see.

A few drinks, a few sharp smiles, and one dangerous spark should be nothing they can’t handle.

After all, they’re both playing the same game.

The trouble is, neither of them expected to meet someone who could see through the packaging.

Tequila and Tulips is a witty, emotional Napa Valley romance about grief hiding behind a smile, confidence that doesn’t always reach the heart, and two people discovering that the real thing can’t be polished, packaged, or played away.
