Nothing But Trouble

Synopsis (from Amazon):  

EMMA
Five minutes before saying I do, I walked out on my fiancé in front of the entire town.

Now everyone thinks I'm the villain of this story. Everyone except Ethan Fox.

Everyone's against me except Ethan Fox. My ex's bad-boy brother has looked straight through me since high school, but he's back to rebuild the vineyard he once burned down. He's trouble and temporary and the last man I have any business wanting.

So why is he the first to see past the good girl I've spent my whole life pretending to be? Because the longer he stays, the further I fall.

ETHAN
I only came home to settle a debt at my family’s vineyard. Falling for my brother's runaway bride was not part of the plan.

Emma Sullivan is adored in a town that can't stand the sight of me, while I’m the screwup who left and swore he'd never look back.

Only the more time I spend with her, the less I care, and the harder it gets to remember I came here to leave. But when disaster sends the past roaring back into our lives, I do the one thing I promised her I wouldn't.

Nothing But Trouble is Book 1 of The Vineyard Next Door trilogy, a forbidden, slow-burn, feuding-families romance that follows one unforgettable couple across three books.



One (or more) Sentence Summary: I just love Emma! We are first introduced to her running away from her wedding.....to Ethan's brother!  As Ethan arrives in town after being gone for years and spots Emma on the sidewalk and stops to help her.

Emma and Ethan's families have a long history in the small town.  Emma's family have always run the town and Emma is the current mayor.  Ethan's family own the local vineyard/winery. Both families support the town and community and the wedding was supposed to be the event of the century!

Emma appropriately leaves Blake at the church, but refuses to talk about it publicly.  Ethan (Blake's brother) is the black sheep of the family. He left town when he was a teen after his family vineyard had a fire that his dad blamed on him.  He is back to settle his debt. 

We are introduced to Alex and Maya and I have a feeling there is a story brewing there.  Alex works for Ethan's family and Maya is Emma's best friend.  Also Emma's family is a big part of the story, especially her sister Riley.  She is struggling with school, work and fitting in. Their mother passed away several years ago and they had to rely on each other.

Like all Michelle Major's books  - I loved it!
