Cordell Brookridge is a recently retired military man working as the accountant and financial advisor of his family’s winery. It’s been tough adjusting to the homeland, but no tougher than the betrayal of his ex-fiancee and her infidelity.

But his head and heart refuse to work at the same pace, threatening to push her away before he even has her.
