Story
For Lindsay Kent, Vineyard is her dream job. She's thrilled when her boss leaves her in charge (well, half charge) and tells her to feel free to make changes. Lindsay has tons of ideas that she's been dying to put into action, and this is her big chance to increase the success of the business and prove she's more than ready to run things solo. But getting the boss's daughter on board is harder than expected. The uptight and annoyingly attractive Piper is blocking her every move. For Piper Bradshaw, Vineyard is not her job. She already has one.

Accountant and financial advisor Lacey Chamberlain doesn't consider herself a control freak. She's merely a planner-orderly, neat, and content in her tidy little life. When a marketing firm moves into the empty office next door, the loud-music-playing, stinky-food-ordering, kickball-in-the-hall staff make Lacey crazy. Marketing expert Alicia Wright is spontaneous, flies by the seat of her pants, and lives in the moment-all the things Lacey is not. She's also gorgeous, thoughtful, and seems determined to make Lacey like her. They say opposites attract, but for how long? And is that really a good idea?

Narrator woes!!!
- By Michelle A on 01-12-18
By: Georgia Beers
There is a dog that every puppy mommy will appreciate and a kid that makes the womb give a little shudder (in a good way).
As much as I love Beers, I was disappointed by the narration. It lacked the flow I need to get drawn into the story. Having said that, I did enjoy the fact that I got to hear the woman who wrote the story reading it. That will always be something special.
It is worth a listen. The story is fantastic and some people love the narration, others don’t love it so much. So listen to the sample and if enjoy then get the audio book.
