Archaeologist Berit Katsaros travels the world in search of treasures from ancient times. A serious injury forces her to take a break from fieldwork and accept an interim teaching job at Whitman College. She finds nothing redeeming in her frustrating sabbatical…except her sexy landlord, Tace.

When Stacy “Tace€ Lomond takes charge of her brother€s failing microbrewery, she discovers a passion and talent she never realized she possessed. After years of putting herself last and supporting others€ dreams, she€s ready to make a name for her artisanal beer among the academics and sophisticated wineries in Walla Walla, Washington. Berit might be a tempting distraction, but she€s only a temporary fixture in town and in Tace€s life.

Slow-crafted beer and time-worn artifacts. Both women recognize what€s important in their careers, but can they learn to appreciate the value of love?
