Melanie Addario has a secret admirer, a second chance at love she never thought she’d have. She also has a new job at a local winery working for Rafael Delacruz, making her wonder if she’s finally capped out at certifiably crazy. Everyone in town still talks about Rafael and his arrival in Moon Lake years before under sketchy circumstances, and something about the way he looks right through Melanie gives her the willies.

Rafael knows he doesn’t belong in Moon Lake, wedged between the wealthy tourists and heirloom families with streets that match their last names, just like Melanie doesn’t belong working by his side in the hot sun at Crescent Moon, where he gets to talk to her but isn’t allowed to touch. And oh, how he’s wanted to touch that smooth, golden flesh, since long before that Army boyfriend of hers up and walked away. A man would have to be crazy to leave Melanie.

The past has a way of coming back home, and Melanie and Rafael each have a great deal to lose. When someone sabotages operations at the vineyard, Rafael’s plans for the business and his hopes for a relationship with Melanie are suddenly put in jeopardy. Can they find a way to be together when life would pull them apart?
