    Summary

    A.Z. Fell, one of the most respected names in wine and food blogging, has been sent on assignment with his assistant Warlock Dowling to spend six months in California Wine Country. Under direction (by his boss, Gabriel) to use this experience to double his blog followers and write a novel, Aziraphale is both excited and anxious about the opportunity.

    Anthony J. Crowley is the owner and viticulturalist of Ecdyses, a winery that unexpectedly fell into his lap eleven years ago when he hit rock bottom. He may be in debt, yeah, but he’s paying off his loans — and despite pressure from his lenders and their team of inspectors, Crowley has found a kind of contentment tending his little corner of terroir and producing extraordinary wine. Crowley’s old vines are the heart of his vineyard, and he’s never let anyone in.

    Crowley finds Aziraphale intriguing; Aziraphale finds Crowley enthralling. Turns out a famous wine expert and an experienced viticulturalist can still learn things from each other. The summer of 2019 unfolds.

    Summary

    Zee slipped back into his flat and closed the door quietly.

    This had been a mistake. He could feel the edges of his carefully pasted-together life starting to curl, exposing the raw undersides. It was a good thing he was near the end of his current manuscript, because he needed to be as shut-in as possible. Allow some distance between the conversation tonight and the next time he spoke with Crowley. Let the spark of this connection fizzle out before it took root.

    ***
    Zee (Aziraphale) Marsh is a widowed hermit who secretly writes bestselling romance novels under the pseudonym Bella Swansea. His life is rigorously controlled until his new downstairs neighbor arrives. Anthony Crowley causes something to come alive in Zee that he hasn't seen in over twenty years, but Crowley brings with him some of his own very dark secrets.

    Summary

    “It’s good, thank you,” Zira said curtly, then fixed him with another glare. “And my name is Zira, not Angel.”

    He shouldn’t speak, he shouldn’t speak, he shouldn’t speak— “S’not what the A stands for? Cos it seems like it could be, with, y’know, y’lookin’ all—ngh—angelic and—nhmmm—cherubic an’ stuff y’know.”

    Crowley was going to cut out his own tongue.

    *****
    Zira loathes Crowley from the first time they crash into each other. The cool, confident, brash man is the opposite in every way to his anonymous online paramour, Rose. Crowley is attracted to Zira, but the man is supercilious and overbearing. Besides, he’s only flirting with Zira because he doesn’t think he’s worthy of his anonymous online partner, Flower. Now, Zira and Crowley are trapped on a ship together, assigned to the same dinner table for the next two weeks, while online, Flower and Rose are planning to meet in person for the first time…

    Summary

    That was another thing about Crowley—he didn’t seem to have the same reservations about personal space that most angels did. At first, Aziraphale had been hesitant to reciprocate, but he’d come to like the feeling of touch. “I know people aren’t your area of interest,” he said, brushing a stray red curl from Crowley’s forehead.

    “Which is why it’s not boring! There's so much I can learn. Besides—” Crowley closed his eyes as Aziraphale’s fingers brushed through his hair again, this time for no particular reason. “—you have the nicest voice. I could listen to it all day.”

    It was in that moment that Aziraphale stopped worrying about whether or not he was a nuisance.
