I usually love Kim Karr and books by her are a go to for me. In fact, I have been dying for this one and was excited to see it on my Kindle. Unfortunately, I didn't love this one as much as I thought I would. It was, I think, a little long in the middle. Which, as I read this all one complete book and not in the pieces as it was initially released, may have been a factor in the story feeling like it dragged a little bit.
I loved Paris. I struggled to like Tyler much. While I know he is a party guy, and a player, when we first meet him...that isn't all there was too him, but for some reason, I just didn't totally click with the responsible adult Tyler. I have no idea why. I think, maybe, my impression of him is colored by the way those around him see him, which is still as someone who didn't totally step up.
That said, the premise was fun. I enjoyed the Napa setting, and the winery setting adds a romance just by the location of the story. I do recommend this, overall.
