Wine Quest (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798233273698)

Love, like wine, demands patience... and a willingness to risk your heart.

After leaving behind a painful past in New Orleans, George relocates to Virginia hoping for a quieter life-and maybe the chance to finally belong somewhere. A skilled electrician still haunted by grief and loss, he isn't looking for romance. Just stability. Maybe friendship.

Then he wanders into Wine Quest, the region's celebrated lakeside wine festival... and meets Ryan, the charismatic owner of Ryval Winery.

Ryan is everything George didn't expect-warm, confident, and impossibly magnetic. Their chemistry is instant, intoxicating, and as layered as the finest vintage. What begins with wine tastings and lingering glances quickly deepens into something neither man planned.

But love at first taste comes with complications.

Ryan's past refuses to stay bottled up. His business partner-and former lover-still occupies a complicated place in his life. George carries scars of abandonment that make trust terrifying. And when professional turmoil threatens George's future, old fears rise to the surface, testing whether their fragile new relationship can survive real-world pressure.

Among rolling vineyards, Blue Ridge sunsets, and candlelit evenings filled with confession and desire, two men must decide:

Is love worth the risk... even when heartbreak feels inevitable?

Wine Quest is a heartfelt, steamy MM romance about healing after loss, choosing vulnerability over fear, and discovering that the sweetest futures are sometimes found where you least expect them.
