Karin Kallmaker's lesbian retelling of Pride and Prejudice pits first impressions against last chances in this lush wine country story.
Syrah Ardani tried independence - but the call of the Napa Valley hills and rolling vineyards of her family's winery have brought her home again. She is content with her ordered world until she learns that her father's feckless management has put Ardani Vineyards into receivership.
Corporate turnaround specialist Toni Blanchard's arrival is preceded by tales of her slash-and-burn techniques. Determined to meet this soulless corporate raider head on, Syrah proudly prepares to do battle for her home and family business.
Toni has reason to retreat from a high-pressure Manhattan lifestyle, not the least of which is a bitter break up. She's been told that Syrah Ardani is attractive and single, but Toni never mixes business and pleasure.
Creditors clamor for a quick sale and payment. The beautiful--and hostile--Syrah wants Toni off her land and out of her life.
Their clashes smolder with distrust and resentment, but also threaten to light a completely different kind of fire. Most dangerous of all is the one thing Toni can't control--the way her heart reacts when Syrah looks at her...just like that.

From the Publisher:
Opposites attract in Karin Kallmaker’s seventeenth novel. Just Like That joins her impressive string of bestsellers, including the Lambda Literary award winning MAYBE NEXT TIME. Combined with her fantasy and science fiction novels written as Laura Adams, Karin has delighted and entertained lesbians worldwide.
From the Inside Flap:
Caroline's hand slipped to the back of Toni's neck. "Kiss me again."
She was irresistible, even though Toni knew it was a mistake to kiss her then, to kiss her as they slowly made their way back to her rental car, to kiss her once they were locked inside.
"Toni." Caroline's small moan ignited something inside Toni's mouth and the kiss turned hotly passionate. "I've wanted you for so long."
Toni couldn't say, "Me, too," because it wasn't true. Instead she found a real truth, which was, "I know."
