Title: VINES

Goodreads...
In the Virginia countryside outside of Washington, DC, Addy Wentworth was on a mission to make a new life for herself. When the opportunity arose, she settled in horse and wine country. Experiencing more than her fair share of tragedy and loss, she had plans for her future, one where failure wasn’t an option. And not just because people and cows were counting on her. She’d poured everything she had into her struggling vineyard, because once she’s in, she’s all in.
After giving himself wholly to the job for ten years, Crew Vega was done. He’d fulfilled his commitment, done his duty, gone above and beyond to settle the score. And the score was high. All he had to do was train his replacements and he’d be out for good.
He had a plan, one that didn’t include getting involved with his new neighbor, a woman who not only kept cows for pets, but treasured her employees as family, and understood him better than anyone ever had before. But when he learned a high level CIA target being investigated for treason was keeping tabs on her?
No, he never planned on that.
And like everything Crew Vega did in life, when he goes in, he’s all in.
My take...
VINES was a great read. Absolutely loved it. I adored both Crew and Addy and their quick as lightning romance that spawned up between them in such a short time. There is a lot that goes on in the story so it kept things going at a perfect pace.
I loved the edge of your seat twists that needled their way into Addy’s “boring” life from the moment she met Crew. The story was just so dang good and the characters, every single one of them, are utterly fantastic. Yes, even the ones with actual utters. Read the book, you’ll get my little pun. (Moo!) But after meeting some of these people, and knowing they have their own stories coming, makes me excited to see what all happens with them.
Another new to me author, that I believe roped me in through Facebook or Instagram ads, is now one of my favorites. This book is definitely a 5 Star read!!
