I don‘t know why I have such a hard time with most of her books. This one took me a while to get through and I can‘t say exactly why!

Jasmine Guillory writes such solid books. Margot and Luke's familial relationships were just as developed as their romantic one, and I loved the setting! What a good escape from dreary fall weather. #contemporaryromance

Quick, easy read…I like JG‘s books. The relationship between Luke and Margot starts hot and heavy only to be put on hold when he finds out she is his new boss.

Jensol77 This was a cute read. I liked the characters and the modern setting. Good Audio 1y

Decanting a Murder | Nadine Nettmann

Decanting a Murder, A Sommelier Mystery #1 was our May book club choice. This book opens with Katie Stillwell learning that she has failed the sommelier exam. Katie's lifelong best friend Tessa, factors into this story quite quickly followed by a host of other characters. I was immediately intrigued by Katie's character and wanted to learn more about her and her journey to become a sommelier. I took an instant dislike to her (cont in comments)...

TheHeartlandBookFairy best friend Tessa who seems spoiled, thoughtless, self serving, and irresponsible. Katie is like the top note on a wine that makes you curious and wanting to taste more. Tessa is like a middle note that you can't quite identify and you're not sure you like. A twist in their relationship story comes to light later in the book and made me rethink my opinion but still left me unsure (I'll need a few more "sips"). The story itself is a solid cozy mystery with each chapter beginning with a wine pairing. I would compare this first book in this series to a bottle of young red wine that's opened a little too soon and is a tad bit "green". As is often the case with an "opened to soon" bottle of wine, you can still get a sense of how good it's going to be eventually. It's not quite there yet but you know it's going to get there. That's how I feel about this series... the first book was good but young. I can't wait to see how this series and it's characters develop more fully, mature, and come into their own. Cheers to the next book in the series ? 2y

This may be my favorite of Guillory‘s romances: the leads were likable and mostly made reasonable choices, the conflict was believable (mostly), and the resolution felt real. The cameo of friends from previous books was nice but not enough! I expect to see the brother‘s story sometime, too.

I have this dream ALL THE TIME! I keep trying to tell them I already have college degrees and shouldn‘t be there and they tell me I have to finish something that got overlooked.
