Merlot Marriage
Ophelia and Philip are definitely not dating. They’re married. But Definitely. Not. Dating.
For two years, Philip van der Merwe stuck to the plan—get an MBA, don’t break anyone’s heart, and find a way to stay in the States. Above all, keep things as smooth and uncomplicated as a glass of fine chardonnay. Befriending the straightlaced and anxious girl sitting next to him on the first day of grad school seemed like a good way to stay on the straight and narrow.
Growing up in the shadow of her sisters, Ophelia Moore was determined to prove she was worth noticing, but being best friends with Philip was like finding the perfect pairing—unexpected, yet utterly right. It gave her the chance to step into the spotlight on her own terms.
But with graduation behind them and the hunt for a job ahead, navigating life as an adult is tougher than expected. With Philip’s time in the States running out, one impulsive night in Vegas leaves them with more than just a hangover. Suddenly, their “just friends” vintage is turning into a bold new blend, and their little chapel secret is aging into a mess that’s impossible to keep bottled up.
Merlot Marriage is book two of the Sunshine Cellars series. This interconnected standalone features singing in the car, forced proximity, and plenty of steam as these best friends become lovers. And, of course, a guaranteed HEA!
