The Boy Next Door

Sometimes love takes the long road…an opposites attract/childhood crush/hate to love small town romance. Jordan Rhoades was not my high school sweetheart.In fact, he was anything but sweet to me. Jordan was my nemesis.My tormentor.The bully who lived next door who tried beating me at everything.We were complete opposites. And while there were moments when I hated Jordan down to the marrow of my bones, hidden deep within the surface I harbored a secret…I had a crush on him. A BIG one.And sadly, it was my downfall. Now this retired baseball player and hometown hero is back in town and the newest winery owner in Merlot with a job offer I can't refuse.It's mine for the taking, on one condition.Jordan wants to let the past remain where it belongs.I'm just too stubborn and not sure I can ever forgive him for what he did to my heart on prom night ten years ago. Even if it means giving up on the job of my dreams.
