For as long as August Cates could remember, his dick had ruined
everything.
In seventh grade, he’d gotten a hard-on during a pep rally while standing
in front of the entire school in football pants. Since his classmates couldn’t
openly call him Woody in the presence of their teachers, they’d called him
Tom Hanks, instead. It stuck all through high school. To this day, he cringed
at the very mention of Toy Story.
Trust your gut, son.
His navy commander father had always said that to him. In fact, that was
pretty much all he’d ever said, by way of advice. Everything else
constituted a direct order. Problem was, August tended to need a little more
instruction. A diagram, if possible. He wasn’t a get-it-right-on-the-first-try
type of man. Which was probably why he’d mistaken his “gut” for his dick.
Meaning, he’d translated his father’s advice into . . .
Trust your dick, son.
August straightened the wineglass in front of him in order to forgo
adjusting the appendage in question. The glass sat on a silver tray, seconds
from being carried to the panel of judges. Currently, the three smug elitists
were sipping a Cabernet offering that had been entered into the Bouquets
and Beginners competition by another local vintner. The crowd of Napa
Valley wine snobs leaned forward in their folding chairs to hear the critique
from one judge in particular.
Natalie Vos.
The daughter of a legendary winemaker.
Vos Vineyard heiress and all-around plague on his fucking sanity.
August watched her full lips perch on the edge of the glass. They were
painted a kind of lush plum color today. They matched the silk blouse she
wore tucked into a leather skirt and he swore to God, he could feel the crush
of that leather in his palms. Could feel his fingertips raking down her bare
legs to remove those high heels with spikes on the toes. Not for the first
time—no, incredibly far from the first time—he mentally kicked himself in
the ass for sabotaging his chances of taking Natalie Vos to bed. She
wouldn’t touch him through a hazmat suit now, and she’d told him as much
umpteen times.
His chances of winning this contest didn’t bode well.
Not only because he and Natalie Vos were enemies, but because his wine
sucked big sweaty donkey balls. Everyone knew it. Hell, August knew it.
The only one to call him out on it, however, was preparing to deliver her
verdict to the audience.
“Color is rich, if a bit light. Notes of tobacco in front. Citrus aftertaste.
Veering toward acidic, but . . .” She held the wine up to the sun and studied
it through the glass. “Overall very enjoyable. Admirable for a two-year-old
winery.”
Murmurs and golf claps all around from the audience.
The winemaker thanked the judges. He actually bowed to Natalie while
retrieving his glass and August couldn’t stifle an eye roll to save his life.
