Title: One Wish
Author: Kate Kisset
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Blend a former tight end with a bad reputation
and a gorgeous computer geek who doesn’t date.
Toss in two matchmaking grannies who have only One Wish this Christmas.
Lilly Martelli’s first vacation in over a year has her on a mission to support her two busybody relatives in St. Helena. Helping the grannies bake stinky fruitcakes for their Christmas bake sale is bad enough, but being forced to co-host the fund-raiser with Mr.-Fun-in-the-pants Brett Benning might be too hot to handle.
Brett had hoped retiring from football, becoming a firefighter, and moving back to Napa Valley would be enough to repair his reputation. But he’s sick to death of the tiny town gossip, and tired of dating in the shallow end of the pool. He’s looking to score The One.
What are the odds he’d find her while helping with the annual bake sale? His smart and sexy co-chair has him eating out of her hands and asking for seconds of her grandmother’s nasty fruitcake. For the first time in his life, Brett might be in over his head.
One Wish is a standalone, sexy romcom. Although you don’t have to read any of Kate’s other stories to enjoy this one, Love in the Vineyards fans will love seeing their favorite characters from other stories, as they get to know the Santino brother’s lovable grandmother, Mimi, their quirky great-aunt Cha-Cha, and all their gorgeous cousins.
If you enjoy small town romances, romantic comedies, and sexy love stories with a full cast of strong heroines, drool worthy alpha heroes, and grannies in orthopedics, you’ll love One Wish.

(Self-professed
computer geek, Lilly Martelli has been roped into co-chairing the annual Sweet
Paws Charity Bake Sale with the town’s hunk, Brett Benning. Former Seattle
Seahawks tight end, and current St. Helena firefighter, Brett, knows his way
around women. Lilly has just discovered Brett is also known as Mr. July.)
“Brett
is Mr. July, darling,” her nonna offered.
Lilly
turned from the coffee maker to find her nonna’s grin-covered face.
“The
St. Helena Hotties Fireman’s Calendar,” Cha-Cha clarified, as if Lilly should
know, while she unloaded five fruitcakes from the bottom oven. She placed the
loaves on a cooling rack on the counter, then removed her jingle-bell oven
mitts like a doctor after surgery.
Looking
a little sneaky and very guilty, she tiptoed closer to Lilly. “All the firefighters
are holding the most adorable little puppies,” she whispered. “And the proceeds
go to Sweet Paws Rescue. Let me show it to you.”
“Oh,
no, no, no…”
“Get
comfortable,” Cha-Cha commanded, giggling. “You won’t believe your eyes.”
“Nonna,
please. It’s okay. I don’t need to see Mr. July, or any other mister without
his clothes on. Honestly, I don’t—” She’d do it in private later.
Cha-Cha
strutted to the counter near the oven. “Sit, sit, sit…” She directed, waving
and pointing to the island with her red-beaded sleeves flapping. Lilly
reluctantly slid onto her stool again. “Those hotties are in here somewhere…”
Cha-Cha shuffled through a drawer.
Mimi
looked up from her gooey project long enough to deliver a mischievous grin to
Lilly.
“Viola!”
Cha-Cha pulled a glossy package from the drawer. “I’ve been saving this for Mr.
January. But at my age I might not be around, so why wait?”
“Please
don’t say that, Nonna.”
“What
God wants…” Mimi volunteered. And at the mention of the Lord above, the sisters
simultaneously blessed themselves. “Name of the Father, the Son…”
Lilly
took a deep breath. She couldn’t imagine the planet without her nonna. Life was
difficult enough without Grandpa. Although her nonna kept her Santino maiden
name, like her sisters had, Cha-Cha Santino remained head over heels in love
with Edwardo Antonio Martelli until the day he died. He was the love of her
life. So, as much as Lilly had zero desire to look at Brett Benning in the
buff—with the grannies—she was
tickled to see her grandmother so happy.
Cha-Cha
tore the wrapping off the calendar and smirked, letting her know her dead-on
intuition had picked up Lilly’s interest in Brett. Presenting the calendar like
a fragile piece of china, Cha-Cha tangoed to her. “Wipe your hands. We don’t
want to get anything on the pictures. Especially the good parts,” she chuckled.
“You
didn’t have to unwrap it,” Lilly said, reluctantly wiping her hands on a bright
red dish towel. “You could’ve left Mr. January in the drawer.”
Cha-Cha
sidled next to her. “Okay.” She beamed, excitedly flipping the pages. Bare
chests, rippling muscles, and gorgeous smiles flashed by at Mach one.
Lilly
grinned. “On second thought, slow down.”
“Here
he is…” Cha-Cha read the caption. “St. Helena’s Brett Benning, hotter than the
fourth of July.” She pointed to his photo. “Now, tell me that’s not a fun-raiser!”
Lilly
gulped, praying there wasn’t anything fun
raised below his belt. Why couldn’t her grandmother act like a normal granny,
for crying out loud?
Her
nonna nudged her and jiggled the calendar. Lilly rolled her eyes and then
cautiously glanced down.
Oh,
God. There was that smile…and, sweet baby
Jesus. She scanned his beautiful, strong shoulders and down past the
adorable chocolate Labrador puppy in Brett’s drool worthy arms, down to his six
pack abs, and down. Down to the muscles that formed a v below, leading down,
down…
“Close
it. I don’t want to see any more.” Thank God Brett kept his pants on. She’d
need to take another peek later though, just to be sure.
