This is the story of the irresponsible brother, Chad. He just wants to enjoy life and avoid responsibility.When he meets Jen Chavez, she adds a whole new element of fun to his life. She is totally hot and brews beer. What more could a man want. In fact, Chad realises that it's exactly what he wants, to turn the run down family diner into a microbrewery and Jen is the ideal person to advise him.Jen has issues. Mommy issues. Rich guy issues. It makes her cling to her sense of responsibility because no-one else in her life has taken responsibility.You might be seeing a pattern here. Irresponsible guy, girl with overweening sense of responsibility. Don't worry if you don't. It'll be hammered into you before you get too far into the book.This book came close to being a DNF because of my irritation with the heroine in particular. She was so negative. All. The. Time.It did pick up about half way through in spite of some backsliding from the heroine to be quite a satisfying ending.Will be reading Daniel's story next. Set partly in Australia so should be interesting.
