About this ebook

In this steamy contemporary romance set in a family-run winery, a determined heroine must partner with her ex-lover and rival to save her legacy—sparking a passionate second-chance love story filled with tension, ambition, and desire.

In the third book of the Marcelli Sisters series, Brenna Marcelli has always dreamed of running her family’s winery—but proving herself in a tradition-bound Italian American family is no easy task. When her grandfather insists a man should take over, Brenna is forced to fight for her place.

Desperate for funding to secure her future, she turns to the last man she ever wanted to need: Nic Giovanni—her family’s rival and the man who once broke her heart.

Years ago, Brenna chose loyalty over love. Now, with Nic back in her life—and holding the key to her success—their chemistry is impossible to ignore. But as old feelings reignite, Brenna must decide if she can trust him with her heart…or if he’s the one person who could destroy everything she’s worked for.

Sexy, emotional, and full of family drama, this irresistible romance is perfect for fans of vineyard settings, strong heroines, and unforgettable love stories.
