Description de l’éditeur
Welcome to Rendezvous Falls, New York, where love is where you least expect it…
When accountant Whitney Foster’s carefully calculated life blows up, she escapes to the one place that’s always felt like home. But Rendezvous Falls has changed since she’s been away. Her aunt Helen’s winery is in trouble. And she doesn’t trust the sexy, surly stranger working the vineyard as far as she can throw him.
Luke Rutledge would do anything for Helen, who’s been like a mother to him. Revive the winery? Sure. Repair her property? No problem. Tolerate Helen’s infuriating, big-shot niece? Well…maybe. But as he and Whitney are forced to work together to rebuild the business, her chilly facade reveals a woman as complex and intoxicating as a fine merlot. Throw in a matchmaking book club hell-bent on happily-ever-after and it’s a potent cocktail.
Love should never be calculated. But it doesn’t take Whitney’s math skills to see that this is adding to up to one tantalizing adventure…
Don’t miss When Sparks Fly, the next funny, heart-tugging romance in Jo McNally's Rendezvous Falls series centered around a matchmaking book club in Rendezvous Falls, New York.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
McNally (the Lowery Women series) falters with this introduction to the Rendezvous Falls contemporary series. After Whitney Foster is forced to resign her partnership in a prestigious accounting firm, she returns to fictitious Rendezvous Falls, N.Y. It's been years since she's visited her favorite aunt, Helen, in Rendezvous Falls, and she's startled to arrive at Falls Legend, Helen's winery, and encounter a stranger who appears to be in charge. Luke Rutledge would do anything to help Helen keep the winery going in memory of her husband, even if that means dealing with Helen's difficult, snobbish niece. He's used to being judged, thanks to the legacy his incarcerated father attached to their last name, but judgment coming from Whitney, who abandoned the town to chase her career, is a harder pill to swallow, and they are constantly at odds. Their snarky exchanges are ineffective foreplay, completely lacking flirtation and chemistry, but their truce for the sake of saving the company serves as a sturdy foundation for their inevitable relationship. The witty elderly members of a local book club steal the show, and readers will anticipate their antics more than they will the joining of the central couple.
