Publisher's summary
A brand new romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Sarina Bowen!
Livia
Once upon a time I spent an evening flirting with a handsome stranger in a bar. But before we could finish what we started, I lost my nerve and fled.
Months later, I’m minding my own business at work one morning when a stranger lets himself into the empty brewery. Panicked, I call 911, and the cops show up to slap on the handcuffs.
In my defense, I have very good reasons to be afraid. Also in my defense, I’d never met my boss’s son.
Or so I’d thought…
Nash
I don’t know what this chick has against me. First she ditches me, and now she wants to arrest me.
Livia is as frustrating as she is hot. But nobody else knows the brewery better than she does. Now we’re stuck together, sharing an office and a very small house as I run the brewery for six weeks for my cranky dad.
That’s just enough time to bring down her guard. Turns out we have a lot more in common than we thought, including a lot of smoking hot chemistry. Until Livia’s past catches up with her, and I finally figure out why she’s so jumpy. But I’ll stop at nothing to protect her, unless her ex finds her first…

Story
What I meant to do: quietly divorce my lout of a husband and then have a child all on my own. What happens instead: my crush comes back to town when I’m at my most vulnerable. After too many cocktails, I ask him to be my baby’s father. In my defense, it’s been a rough couple of months. Seeing Matteo Rossi again after 14 years has done a number on my emotions. And my libido. In the morning, I’m hoping he’s forgotten the whole thing. But no such luck. In fact, Matteo has a few clarifying questions. And a few naughty ideas, too....

Story
Whip King cannot be the man for me. Cocky, pierced firefighters are perfect for late-night rom-coms, but in real life they’re nothing but trouble. Especially when you find out they work for your dad—after you’ve already slept with them. Moving to my parents’ small town was supposed to be the fresh start I was looking for. When a disastrous Valentine’s Day leads to an unexpected encounter with a sexy stranger, and ends with the hottest night of my life, I didn’t think I would ever see Whip again.

And that beautiful smile was aimed at me.

Story
Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

Story
Every Kringle in Kringletown loved Christmas a lot. But Cole Black on Whistler Lane, unfortunately did not. Cole was a recluse during the Kringle Christmas season. No one knew why, no one could quite give a reason. Martha said it was because he was alone and very single. Mae believed it was because he was never named the town Kringle. But to me, the reason is a storyline far too sad. For at the age of eighteen, he lost both mom and dad. Whatever the reason, his parents or being single, He spends Christmas in the dark, hating the cheery people of Kringle.

Until she walked in the room. The earth shifted, just like the stories said it would. I said it wouldn’t happen—not to me. I didn’t have the time, but now she was the only thing on my mind. I knew it was her. Now I had to convince her.

Being traded to the Boston Rebels could not have come at a better time. With serious family obligations to fulfill and a contract renewal with a new hockey team on the line, I have no time for anything else.

Story
Marrying Beckett Coleman is the best idea I've had in years. I can grant my sick dad’s wish to walk one of his daughters down the aisle, and Beckett has my help solving a custody situation with his daughter. Our plan is to spend a year together, then part ways. Easy, especially since I'm not his type, and he's not mine either. He’s too quiet and too serious. And while he’s distractingly gorgeous, he’s also my brother’s teammate. Beckett is fake husband material, not the real deal. I just have to remember that.

I caught her staring at me from across the quad, eyes fixed on the football jersey stretched across my wide chest. And if I flexed my muscles, showing off the strength of a defensive tackle, it was just to see her blush. And then she did, and I couldn’t get her out of my mind. Her wide eyes. The freckles on her cheeks. I needed to know her. The girl who scampered away every time we bumped into each other—by accident and by design.

Okay so I was covered in electric blue body paint, and wearing a wig, but is that a good excuse to not remember the girl you said was your destiny? Now I’m stuck working for the jerk because only he can give me the job I really want—manager of his hotel. When he needs a fake fiancé for business reasons, there’s an easy solution—blackmail. He has to give me a trial run as hotel manager in return for wearing his ring.

No one but me knew why I was actually in the California desert that day. Nestled deep within the desolate, rocky area was a recording studio. When a door suddenly opened, a man mistook me for someone he was supposed to be interviewing for a job. The next thing I knew, I was whisked inside. The position? An assistant on the upcoming tour for one of America’s most famous rock bands. Pretty exciting opportunity for a twenty-two-year-old, just out of college. Not surprisingly, I bombed the interview.

Asher Donovan is a living legend—the darling of the Premier League, the (arguably) greatest footballer in the world. But his reckless antics and recent team transfer have caused much controversy, and when his feud with his rival-turned-teammate costs them a championship, they’re forced to “bond” during off-season cross-training. Surviving the summer shouldn’t be hard…until Asher meets their new trainer. She’s beautiful, talented, and no matter how hard he tries, he can’t take his mind off her.

Story
What I meant to do: quietly divorce my lout of a husband and then have a child all on my own. What happens instead: my crush comes back to town when I’m at my most vulnerable. After too many cocktails, I ask him to be my baby’s father. In my defense, it’s been a rough couple of months. Seeing Matteo Rossi again after 14 years has done a number on my emotions. And my libido. In the morning, I’m hoping he’s forgotten the whole thing. But no such luck. In fact, Matteo has a few clarifying questions. And a few naughty ideas, too....

Ski-racer Dane "Danger" Hollister does not do relationships, though he keeps his reason a secret. The real-life curse he's inherited from his mother will eventually cost him everything: his place on the Olympic ski team, his endorsement income, and his ability to fly downhill at top speed. Reluctant country girl Willow Reade meets Dane by accident. Literally. Her skidding truck forces him off the road during a blizzard. Stranded together in his Jeep as night falls, the two loneliest people in Vermont find themselves sharing more than they'd planned. And not just conversation.

You know when you see that big red flag, and you think to yourself, I should probably not go anywhere near there? Yeah, Quincy Carter ignored that big red flag. He walked right up to that red flag, waving blatantly in the wind, and kissed the holy hell out of her. Sure, he probably should've arrested her for breaking a restraining order. He probably also should've stopped her from continuing to break that restraining order. Yet he can't.

Golden Touch: Giltmaker Book 2
I really loved this story! I loved it so much, that when the audio app Sarina uses began to get all kinds of twitchy, I just flipped to reading because I WAS IN IT. Will I be going back to listen to the audiobook asap? Yes, I will, as one does! :)
This story leaned heavy on the suspense but I don’t think it took away from the romance. It’s just different from what I’m used to by Sarina, and it gave me The Company kinda vibes and I am here for all of that!
I really enjoyed how easy the bond, or some would say chemistry, between our MCs developed from the beginning and continued until the end. I think Sarina making that choice is what solidified their realistic ever after for me, because again, the story leaned heavy on the suspense, and that was all about our FMC. Hopefully I’m explaining correctly, but from the beginning these two sparked and sparred and it gave me great joy and belief that they were gonna make it. Feel me?
Once I started reading, I did not stop. It was an entire afternoon and evening, but this is one of those stories that you will push to read in one sitting. It’s fast-paced and suspenseful and all kinds of flirtatious. I cannot wait to get Samantha Brentmoor and Tim Paige back in my ears to re-experience this story!
UPDATE 08/01: Sarina was gracious enough to provide an audible code for me to listen to this story and PEOPLE, the suspense arc of the story was even better and so was their romance journey! Samantha Brentmoor and Tim Paige are two of my favorite narrators and they brought this story to life so brilliantly that I have no words! I mean I just read it like a month or 2 ago but I found myself completely riveted once again! I think I even picked up some details I hadn’t picked up on when I read it! This is one of those times when I 100% recommend you grab this book in audiobook format if you can! Do with that information what you will :)

Loved Nash and Livia!
loved Nash's return to the family brewery, and Livia regaining her freedom!
Golden Touch by Sarina Bowen is a rollercoaster ride of a story that you rooting for the good guys and true love the entire time. I loved the world and intrigue that Sarina created, and she delivered a thoroughly satisfying romantic suspense.
Nash and Livia were clearly destined to be. They met and were immediately captivated by each other, but it wasn't their time. Now that they're in each other's orbit again, their attraction can't be denied. When Livia's complicated past threatens their future, Nash work hard to make sure Livia doesn't run, and that she regains control of her life again.
This was a great story, and the audio has amazing narration by Samantha Brentmoor and Tim Paige, is perfectly suited to the characters and the story. I really love how much emotion they bring to the characters, and how they really make you feel the story, rather than just hearing the story.

Must listen to
I loved listening to this book. I love how Livia and Nash meet. They had seen each other before and flirted but he didn’t get te chance to meet her. This time when they do meet it’s hilarious. But you also understand why Livia acts the way she does.
Nash’s dad is beyond grumpy. And I love how Livia handles him and gets him to listen to his son, to at least let him talk. I love what he calls Livia and the way he treats her. The things he does to make her feel safe shows you just how much she means to him.
Livia’s ex is a real piece of work. What he’s done to her and how he has her running and not trusting anyone is horrible. Her mother wasn’t any better with the things she said to her.
I’m glad Livia meets Nash. Her brother, urgh he needs someone to straighten him out.
She might not have anyone but she’s finally found people that care about her. And she’s got some hot chemistry going on with Nash.
Livia’s stronger and braver than she gives herself credit for. Nash is always there when she least expects him to be.
I love how it was brought to life and listening to Livia and Nash.
This a must listen to.

I loved this small town romance!
This story has all the parts of why I love to read romance!
Small town, family business, cranky Dad that is sick, the not favorite son gets called to help, and a mysterious new employee.
Nash is the son that arrived home to help the family business during a crisis. Livia is the mysterious employee. They met once before in a bar and flirted using songs from the jukebox. She ghosted him and was the woman that got away.
There is some mild suspense as Livia works through an issue from the past. A jaw dropping event. Snarky banter and major swoon.

Loved!
It was so great being back in this world!!!
Livia has so bad baggage she’s running from and I totally understood why she was so private and closed off. I love that Nash is able to crack her open though! She was the grumpy and he brought the sunshine and I loved their dynamic! Nash is so great and has such a dirty mouth! I loved it! Their chemistry was absolutely amazing!
I loved seeing previous characters from other series and ones being mentioned. I also loved how this whole story built up, it had me on the edge of my seat and then the way it resolves! It was all just so great! And the narrators were awesome!

The narration was top-notch!
I really enjoyed Good as Gold, the first book in author Sarina Bowen's Giltmaker series, so I was super excited to dive into Golden Touch. I adore a little suspense with my romance so Livia and Nash's story was fantastic and done so well. I've always been fascinated by the brewery process, so I love that this series is set in the Giltmaker family brewery because I've actually learned a lot as I read. The narration by Tim Paige and Samantha Brentmoor was top-notch. Although it was nice to catch up with characters from the first book, Golden Touch can absolutely be read as a standalone, although I do think you'll want to go back and read the first book after devouring this one.

Just right!!
I'm a huge fan of Sarina Bowen and honestly get so excited with every release-Golden Touch was no different. I loved getting to dive back into the Giltmaker universe and was hooked from start to finish with this book.
Nash and Livia were such interesting characters to me. Like I said, I was hooked right from the start, wondering immediately what was going on with Livia. I wanted to hug her and help her figure things out. Nash had me grinning. These two provided such a perfect balance to each other and I was all in rooting them on.
I felt like I could live in this little world. The narrating team of Samantha Brentmoor and Tim Paige just brought everything to life so vividly! They embodied the characters well and really performed all the heat, banter and wit in this one perfectly.
If you haven't read Sarina Bowen yet what are you waiting for?! Books like Golden Touch are the perfect example of why she's an automatic one click, pre-order author for me! Check this one out!

Just wonderful
I can always count on Sarina Bowen to suck me in. Over the last few months I've really struggled to read. Really over the last year I've talked about my fear of losing the love of this hobby I've always had. It was nice to really enjoy a book.
I figured I would like Golden Touch because Sarina has never let me down. But I was still a little scared (see above). I shouldn't have been.
Livia and Nash were so easy to immediately connect with. While I wanted them to get together, I equally cared about their individual journeys. That's something I really like about Sarina's books. She's very skilled at creating fully developed characters.
The romance was also well-done. Sarina is an expert at writing characters with physical chemistry, but not relying on that. Nash especially made a lot of effort to get to know Livia and almost become her friend first.
This had some romantic suspense elements to this one. Livia is hiding from her ex-boyfriend and his motorcycle club. A lot of tension comes from that.
There was a little bit of sequel bait. Or at least I hope I'm right about the next couple, because I love that woman. I need more about her. So fingers crossed!
