Description

I'm stuck sharing a house with my hot new boss…And I just walked in on him in the shower.

Landing a major interior design contract for the new winery in Dogwood Cove is supposed to be my fresh start. But sharing a house with the annoyingly sexy winemaker Finn McNeil? That wasn't part of the plan… 

To make it worse, Finn's made it very clear he doesn't want me around - at work, or anywhere else.

I'm determined to win him over with my charm and professionalism. Not only do I need this job, but this town has become more than a place to earn a living, it's become home.

Which is why giving into the undeniable attraction we feel could spell disaster for both of us. 

Work and Play is the ultimate steamy small town romance for fans of forced proximity, a quirky heroine who knows what she wants, and a winemaker who's determined to avoid her.This book is for readers who love grumpy-sunshine banter, a dirty talking hero, a close friend group, low angst and high heat with a guaranteed HEA. This is the third book in the Dogwood Cove series and can be read as a standalone, although the series is best enjoyed if read in order.

  • Amazing story

    “I love that he can’t seem to stop touching me with his hands and his lips. It’s as if now that the seal on our intimacy has been broken, he just can’t get enough. We’re opposite ends of a magnet, drawn together.” Finn and Ashley are HOT! Finn tries to fight his attraction and it turns him into a grumpy jerk. Ashley is smart, passionate, and incredibly caring. I loved the way their story came together. I also loved how all of the Dogwood cove friends where in this story, they are such a great group of friends. This book was written incredibly well and I could t put it down once I started it. The ending was absolutely beautiful. The steam level was off the charts and their chemistry was electric. I NEED Paige’s story now, that poor girl needs a good man.

    Work and Play was a sweet and steamy romance! I love the Dogwood Cove setting and the friendships that have formed and flowed throughout this series. I enjoyed this book and felt the storyline flowed well and keep my interest. Finn was a little broody and I loved how Ashley stood her ground. A great small-town, forced proximity, workplace romance had a little bit of everything, some lighter angst, and great characters. Julia Jarrett is an author you need to read if you enjoy those lighter feel-good romances!

    This book is delightful. Ashley is smart and passionate about her work as a designer. Finn’s business partner brings Ashley in to design the tasting room for their winery. Finn and Ashley have instant chemistry. Their story is one with lots of banter as they dance around each other trying to keep things professional.
