Formulaic. Kind of boring. I generally find Jasmine Guillory’s books fun and lighthearted and a good escape from reality. But I feel like it is the same story every time. And this. Ok could have been at least 25% shorter since everything seemed repeatedly endlessly.

Jasmine Guillory is a favorite of mine ever since I read The Wedding Date. A standalone (with some TWD series cameos), Drunk on Love was a great addition to her catalog.
Margot Noble has a one-night stand with Luke Williams after a night at her friend’s bar in Napa. Little did they know - Luke is the newest hire for Margot’s family vineyard and tasting room. That’s the last time she leaves the hiring to her brother!
Luke is only in town for a few months after quitting his tech job and needing a break. His best friend, Avery, needed a hand and his mom is nearby. But adding to complications - his Mom thinks he’s only on sabbatical and that he’s dating Avery - even though it’s Margot he’s interested in. I enjoyed this story and probably the only drawback was dreaded miscommunication and how long Luke extended his lies about everything to his Mom.
I listened to the audiobook and narrators Heidi Franklin and Ryan Vincent Anderson did a wonderful job bringing Margot and Luke to life.

Twas Cute.....had your classic chick with NOT so many emotional problems, family drama, and the occasional career conundrum, and your swoon worthy male character who, well for the lack of better description, sexy tech nerd who had pretty much "had it" with "silicon Valley" job.
I have to admit, this one wasn't AS swoony/cheesy as the other books by Ms Guillory, but I would still continue to read other titles by this author.....she still does classic romance very well.
I did like the fact that the "conflict" wasn't a knock-out drag-out, and the buildup wasn't too misleading, you could tell from the beginning what was going to happen(predictable, YES), but at least it wasn't so horribly written that you didn't want to finish the book.
Overall 4-stars......

The book never mentioned the importance of uncle stan in their lives, but somehow they felt so much pressure to keep his winery successful
