Entangled by Melissa Brayden
4.0
“Entangled” is a sweet romance between Joey, a winery owner, and Becca, the general manager of a resort that’s going up next door. Many people have also labeled this as an enemies-to-lovers romance but I didn’t really see the “enemies” aspect.
Joey is very much opposed to the resort and what she’s afraid it will mean for a small wine town. Joey and Becca bicker a bit about it but it never goes into the enemy territory for me, which was a little disappointing because I love a good enemies-to-lovers trope. Saying that, this is still an excellent romance that’s definitely worth a read. But it’s a Brayden book so I don’t think there was ever any doubt about that.
This is the first in a trilogy and it spends some time introducing everyone. I also liked how Brayden took the time to really introduce the atmosphere of the town, Whisper Wall, and the people that live there. She’s very descriptive and it was easy to imagine the little shops like the Nifty Nickel and the Bacon and Biscuit Café. The townspeople were quirky and interesting and I’m looking forward to reading more about them.
Joey and Becca were sweet and lovely together, it was very easy to root for them. Joey has recently turned 30 and has a lot going on. She’s dealing with a tough loss and has to take over her family winery. She’s guarded with her heart after past heartbreak but she can’t stay away from Becca. Becca has recently moved to town as the general manager of a new resort that’s being built. She’s dealing with being very lonely in a new town and dealing with the townspeople being unhappy with the resort.
This had a very whimsical feel to me. It’s filled with lots of flirty and witty banter that I feel like is a staple of all Brayden books. There is some angst but everything felt natural. Nothing felt forced or there for the sake of drama.
