in Westchester County. That was her public persona anyway, and everyone
loved her. Mia James, Vic’s best friend since kindergarten, was

introduced Vic to Max Cole. He sat on that Harley, looking hotter than
any living, breathing man had a right to, wearing a dimpled grin and
windswept wild child hair. Vic wasn’t in the market for a man, but there
he sat anyway. He was delicious eye candy and made her legs wobble like
lime Jello. Vic fell for him, and fell hard, but there was Mia, who had
a brief, but tempestuous history with Max. Vic hid her
insecurities well with that tough girl façade. After all, her hair was
frizzy and her butt was too big. Competing with the gorgeous, perfect
Mia would be next to impossible. Through heartache, crazy
antics, laughter and Merlot, Vic searched for her own truth. Letting go
of her insecurities would show her how to love both Max and Mia, and
also herself. Insecurity and a Bottle of Merlot is the
second romantic comedy novel in this contemporary romance series. Like
