Frankie Baudouin has a hundred reasons not to trust Nate DeLuca. First, heβs a DeLuca. Second, he kissed herβin front of the entire townβand then never called. Oh, and heβs after her land. Sorrento Ranch is Frankieβs last chance to prove to her familyβand to herselfβthat she has what it takes to be an award-winning winemaker. And she will stop at nothing to ensure her successβeven if it means playing nice with the starched, sophisticated, and oh-so-sexy Italian.
For Nate, Sorrento Ranch is more than just soil and grape vines; it was his fatherβs dreamβa dream Nate is determined to make a reality. So when he finds himself forced to cohabitate with a hot-headed, irrational, and incredibly gorgeous Baudouin, Nate is surprised to discover that chaos could be so much funβespecially when she sleeps in nothing but lace.
