    Book: Drunk on Love

    Author: Jasmine Guillory

    You know I love a good love story. I actually was glad to read this book because I am getting more into the wine industry. Reading this book talks about the wine vinery. This book was about Margot Noble, co-owner of Napa Valley winery. Her and her brother took over the winery when her uncle passed away. She wants to show her brother that she can run the business and learn the business.

    Luke Williams is in the business as a tech. He quits his job and then moves back home to help his best friend and it makes him closer to his Mom. He gets a job at the winery to try to learn new things and do something fun.

    Margot and Luke meet at a bar and things get hot really fast. They are really attracted to each other. They have a great night and then next thing you know he finds out that his new boss is the same woman he really likes. They try their hardest to be professional at work but all through the day they think about each other. Margot cannot act on it because she doesn’t want her brother or the team to think she is unprofessional or get in any trouble for hooking up with her worker. They become great friends and love talking to each other.

    They have times where they really wish they could talk to each other and hold one another to see if it would be more than just a fling. Luke finally has to quit the winery to help his Mom and as soon as he quits he knows he no longer works for Margot and would love to take their relationship to another level. Luke is younger than Margot so sometimes she thinks he is just young and a fling but the passion she has overlooks that. Luke thinks he is not enough; he lies to his mom just so she can be happy and not be disappointed and the lies he tells comes back to him. Tell the truth and never let no one put you down. Your worth means a lot.

    Luke and Margot find love at the right time in both of their lives. I always say you never know when love will find you. Patience is the key and also find a person you can communicate and be friends with. I believe becoming friends first and everything will fall in place.

    Great Love book. I really enjoyed it. Check it out and tell me what you think. Also join Cece Book Club on IG and Facebook.

    I enjoyed this book. It was about a lady named Izzy who worked for this company doing publishing. They were trying to get this book done on a Beau Towers, they had a deal and they sent emails all the time to him, but he never responded. Izzy lived in New York and the company ended up going to L.A. for a work conference. Izzy said that she would go to Mr. Beau’s house to check on what was going on.

    Izzy ends up staying in L.A. to convince and help Beau to do the book. It first started out as them not getting along with them being friends. They pushed each other in the making of them being friends and sharing things with each other. They helped each other get out of fearing things in life that needed to be done. They pushed each other by talking and communicating.

    They fell in love but they both were patient; I think it was great timing in each other’s life. I hope that it will be part 2 of this book. I would love to see how their journey goes. I enjoyed the characters.

    I like to read romance stories and how people find their mate. Izzy pushed Beau and it helped her with her own insecurities. She was really encouraging and came out of her shell. Glad that she was there to help Beau. I can’t imagine someone going in depressed mode and shutting the world out of his life for a whole year. Glad she was bringing life back into him.
