Pinot and Puha

A modern day take on Jane Austen's classic Pride and Prejudice, set in Wellington, New Zealand.Mel has her bookstore. She doesn't need a man. Especially not a yob like Jesse. Right?After an unconventional and nomadic childhood, all Mel wants is a successful business and a stable life. She's focussed on the new bookshop she's just opened with her best friend Ellie and the wine and cheese evenings they're about to start. But Mel is up against obstacles. There's drama with the neighbouring construction site, a boutique owner who seems hell bent on causing problems, interfering family members and baffling incidents of vandalism. If Mel WAS looking for a man, surely her suave, well-dressed landlord Nate would be the perfect match. Her mother certainly seems to think so. So why is it that she's so distracted by the sexy but surly builder working next door?Mel should know better than to judge a book by it's cover.
