Chardonnay
Brady Noah isn't just my former friend—he's my brother's best friend. The kind of guy who used to share inside jokes and late-night conversations with me. But one day, without warning, he flipped a switch and decided I was his enemy. For years, we've barely tolerated each other, our interactions filled with sharp words and simmering tension.

So when I find myself helping him sort through the confusing paperwork for his estranged father—the man who once made his life hell—I expect nothing but frustration. What I don't expect is the way old familiarity creeps back in, how the boy I once knew surfaces in unexpected moments. And what I really don't expect is the way my heart reacts to him, making me question if I ever truly hated him at all.

Brady
Chardonnay was my friend once—until she wasn't. She's also my best friend's little sister, which meant she was always off-limits. Through the years, I've made sure she knew exactly where we stood. But now, between balancing my distillery and dealing with my father's worsening dementia, I'm drowning in medical paperwork and responsibilities I never wanted. And somehow, she's the one stepping in.

Stubborn, determined, and still every bit the perfectionist I remember, Chardonnay is the last person I should be able to rely on. But as I sift through the mess of my father's past and my own buried resentment, I find myself leaning on her, and I can't ignore the truth any longer—this fire between us isn't just old bitterness. And maybe, just maybe, it never was.

Discover the intoxicating blend of enemies to lovers, brother's best friend, and best friend's sister in this steamy small-town romance.
