The Case of the Voracious Vintner — Tara Lain

Where Bo Marchand comes from, gay men are just confirmed bachelors who never found the right girl. But now Bo's a successful winemaker on the central coast of California, supporting his whole family back in Georgia, and all he really wants is the beautiful, slightly mysterious Jeremy Aames. Jeremy's vineyard is under threat from Ernest Ottersen, the voracious winemaker who seems to know all Jeremy's blending secrets and manages to grab all his customers. Bo tries to help Jeremy and even provides a phony alibi for Jeremy when Ottersen turns up dead in Jeremy's tasting room. But it's clear Jeremy isn't who he claims, and Bo must decide if it's worth tossing over his established life for a man who doesn't seem to trust anyone. When Jeremy gets kidnapped, some conservative winemakers turn out to be kinky sex fiends, and the list of potential murderers keeps dwindling down to Jeremy, Bo has to choose between hopping on his white horse or climbing back into his peach-pie-lined closet.
