Brownfield, TX - "Can you even grow grapes in Texas?" "Texas wine - is it any good?" These are questions I am asked daily when speaking with friends and customers about my work at Reddy Vineyards.  Honestly, they were questions that I had myself when first asked to join the Reddy family's endeavors to launch their own estate wines. Even as a Certified Sommelier I had very little prior knowledge of Texas wines.  In fact, you'll be hard pressed to find any reference to Texas wines in any of the leading primers prepared for those studying for the leading industry certifications.  But let me tell you, the answer to these questions is a resounding "YES"!

It's also written in country/western lingo so some things won't seem grammatically correct. Also, this book is based on the Wild West time period (1865-1895). Some of the places that will be mentioned in this book are fictional places I have come up with, others are (or were) real but may look different than they actually looked in history.

"Everybody Lies" My name is Jessalyn Stratton. I've been riding the rodeo circuit since I was seventeen. Now, I'm a twenty-six year old wash-out, a has-been with a fake knee who's never really dated and never had a boyfriend. Then I stumbled across a personal ad on the Internet. Zack Boudreaux is a twenty-seven year old single dad living and working on his family's ranch in Texas. He's looking for the woman of his dreams and thinks he might have found it in me. I should be riding off into the sunset, living my Happily Ever After. Except after months of emailing each other and sharing secrets I'd never told a living soul, I still had one last secret to tell. Opening up to Zack was easy. Telling the truth could change everything. Warning: this story contains a mail-order bride, sort of, a couple of secret babies (or 3), lots of hot cowboys and (a butt-ton of family) drama.
