This book was read thanks to NetGalley.

It's a lighthearted romance story, setting in a small town, it's part of a series so it's nice. It's grumpy x sunshine, and i love it, he hires her to save his business but quick she becomes a pain in his ass, pushing his boundaries and inevitable making him fall in love.

I recommend this book to anyone looking for a quick, sweet, romance,

Winnie and JAMES!! I am obsessed with them. This book was everything and had me giggling and swooning the whole time.

James was the ultimate grump, with gooey insides and I just absolutely loved him. I found myself really relating to his character on a smaller scale—feeling overwhelmed by lots of people and noise. I understood that feeling and felt for him deeply.

If James was the grump, Winnie was definitely sunshine. I loved her drive to help James even though he didn’t want it. She was thoughtful and worked hard.

There were so many sweet, tender moments and the chemistry between them crackled. This book had some of the very best kissing scenes I’ve ever read—like the ELEVATOR scene.

This was a super fun grumpy/sunshine, workplace romance set in small town Texas. Definitely my favorite of the series so far and recommended for fans of authors like Savannah Scott and Kortney Keisel or other brewery romance books like The suite spot by Trish Doller or The dating dare by Jayci Lee. Great on audio too narrated by Meg Sylvan and Aaron Shedlock.

Another stellar read by Emma!

James is an adorable idiot. But also he does dark and brooding in a not toxic way, which we love.

Winnie is the sass queen! But she’s also soft and vulnerable and I love her dearly.

Just so fun and perfect!
Five out of five!
