Whiskey and Willow - SJ McCoy

Willow DuPont has spent most of her adult life running from her family name. She loves the family business – she never wanted to be anything but a winemaker. But she wanted to make her own way and she's done just that. She's worked for some of the finest names around the world from Sicily to the Barossa, and Mendoza to Bordeaux.

It wasn't only the family name that she wanted to get away from; she didn't feel like she could survive the stifling love of her family – well, her mother. Things have changed in the last few years, though; her mother's changed. Her mom's in love, and Willow's back home in Napa – as the new COO of DuPont Wineries.

She's every bit the rich, beautiful, wine-country heiress, but she's also a free spirit and a party lover.

Slade Hawkins is another party-loving free spirit. He's a former Marine who came home to Napa to take over his dad's old job – working security for Jacobs Estate winery. He grew up around the wine families, he even considers some of them to be his friends – but he's never been one of them.

He and Willow might have had some fun whenever she came home to visit over the last few years, but he knows there's no future in it. He might wish there could be, but he lives in the real world. He knows that she's wine country royalty – and he's just the help. But that doesn't mean that they can't keep things going until she moves on – as she inevitably will.

If Slade thinks that Willow is going to conform to what's expected of her, he's going to have to think again, and Willow is going to have to figure out if he doesn't believe they can be together for the long term – or if he just doesn't want to.
