Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. High 4. ( ) A rom-com set in the Napa Valley. Natalie Vos has returned to her family vineyard after a failed financial gamble in New York City, and a broken engagement. August Cates is also in Napa, having promised his late friend (and fellow Navy SEAL) that he’d fulfill his dream of opening a vineyard. They hate each other but agree to a sham marriage so that she can get her trust fund (to return to NYC), and he can get a business loan to continue his efforts in Napa. So, there’s a kernel of a cute idea here. But these two are so NOT interesting. Natalie is a whiny, spoiled brat who mistakes lust for love. August is clearly suffering some PTSD, and also prone to “thinking with his dick.” The fact that his actions make this obvious isn’t enough for Bailey, though. She has to tell us this at least twenty times. Of course, they have hot sex and achieve multiple orgasms. But these scenarios are so ridiculously unbelievable that I found them tedious to read. With two exceptions … Loved these descriptions: ”August’s climax was like reaching land after parachuting at night into the ocean.” And perhaps the best (or at least most entertaining) metaphor I’ve ever encountered: ”She rode on a rainbow unicorn over the Milky Way and waved at an astronaut.” The book gets 1 star for those two descriptions. After a slowish, predictable first half, this audiobook got better, then better. It is playful and very romantic. Entirely due to August Cate, ex SEAL and neophyte vintner. He is so smitten with Natalie, daughter of neighboring successful vintners, that half the time it seems inconsistent that he is a SEAL when his brain is rendered powerless by how overwhelmed he is by her. The story is all about the learning curve he goes on to be what he needs to be to meet her where she is. It is any woman's dream. The story peg is Natalie needing to gain access her trust fund, and build trust in August as the man for her, after recent epic disasters in her life and a family that treats her as an also rand. The story location is Napa Valley, with a visit to New York. Convinced yet that this is one hell of a romantic novel? This would make a great romcom movie provided the syrup didn't outdo August's awesome ability for insight and change, and the fabulous repartee between the two leads. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: #1 New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey is back in Napa Valley with this hilarious rom-com about a down-on-her-luck heiress who suggests a mutually beneficial marriage of convenience to a man she can't stand... only to discover there's a fine line between love and hate. After losing her job and her fiancé in one fell swoop, Natalie Vos returned home to lick her wounds. A few months later, she's sufficiently drowned her sorrows in cabernet and she's ready to get back on her feet. She just needs her trust fund to finance her new business venture. Unfortunately, the terms require she marry before she can have the money. And well, dumped, remember? But Natalie is desperate enough to propose to a man who makes her want to kill him??and kiss him, in equal measure. August Cates may own a vineyard, but he doesn't know jack about making wine. He's determined to do his late best friend proud, no matter what it takes. Except his tasting room is empty, his wine is disgusting (seriously, he once saw someone gag), and his buddy's legacy is circling the drain. No bank will give him the loan he needs to turn the business around... and then the gorgeous, feisty heiress knocks on his door. Natalie has haunted August's dreams since the moment they met, but their sizzling chemistry immediately morphed into simmering insults. Now, a quickie marriage could help them both. A sham wedding, a few weeks living under the same roof, and then they can go their separate ways??assuming they make it out alive. How hard could it be? There's just one thing they didn't account for: their unfortunate, unbearable, undeniable attracti Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
