Amalie: I've lived in Beaver Bluff, Tennessee my entire life. My only goal is to put myself through school working as a full-time nanny so I can earn my degree and get the heck out of this small, suffocating town. When a run-in with a cocky single dad lands both of us in the principal's office at my old elementary school, I'm forced to find a way to work with the nemesis from my past to set a good example for the kids. As the two of us butt heads, my frustration builds until I don't know if I'm on the edge of my breaking point or falling for the reformed bad boy. Miller: My son comes first. He's my top priority, and as a single dad, I haven't had time to even look at a woman in over six long years. So when I overreact during a school event and am forced to work with a gorgeous nanny to plan the spring fundraiser, I suddenly find myself out of my league and going out of my mind. She's everything I haven't been looking for and now desperately crave. Unless I can convince her I've changed from the entitled a-hole she knew as a kid, I'll run out of time before I can make her mine. Lose yourself in the richly crafted world of Beaver Bluff, Tennessee where the whiskey flows freely and love is only ever a few pages away.

This the memoir of Gerard Basset, OBE, the greatest wine professional of his generation. A school dropout, Gerard had to come to England to discover his passion. He threw himself into learning everything he could about wine, immersing himself in the world of Michelin star restaurants and beginning the steep climb to the top of the career ladder. Tasting Victory charts his business successes: co-founding and selling the innovative Hotel du Vin chain and founding, with his wife Nina, the much-loved Hotel TerraVina. It recounts in detail just how he managed to earn his unprecedented sequence of qualifications; Gerard is the first and only individual to hold the famously difficult Master of Wine qualification simultaneously with that of Master Sommelier and MBA in Wine Business. But it is his pursuit of the most important award of all that forms the core of this book – how, at his seventh attempt, and after a training regime that would shame most Olympic athletes, the fifty-three-year-old Gerard Basset was finally crowned the Best Sommelier of the World, and acknowledged as the greatest sommelier of his generation. Gerard's memoir is not only the story of how a champion is made, but also a record of how fine dining and hospitality changed in England, going from stale and unexciting to the world-leading sector it is today. Above all, it’s a book about succeeding against great odds: in typical fashion it was when he was diagnosed with cancer of the oesophagus that Gerard responded by deciding to write Tasting Victory, which he completed shortly before his death in January 2019.
