Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to Rapids Bay Minnesota, where the Viking blood runs strong, secrets don't last long, and the best place to kick back is The Spirit of Hops Brewstillery. Half brewery, half distillery, all hometown watering hole goodness fit for the Gods.

Life's too short. Cliché? Yes, but some things are universal truths regardless of how many pumpkin spice-toting basic white girls paint said truths on barn wood and hang them in their kitchens. That basic truth has been my motto for most of my life and has rarely steered me wrong. It may have also steered me into some interesting shenanigans and awkward situations, but those just make for the best stories. As the bar manager for Spirit of Hops Brewstillery in my hometown, those stories have always given me something to chat about with customers. But when the new brewer and his little girl show up, those stories seem just a prologue to the newest adventure I hear calling my name. Life's too short, why not seize the day and see what comes, right?

If there is one thing I have learned in these last six years watching my little girl grow up, it's that a year is both somehow forever and gone in an instant. Life is too short, and that's not something to be taken lightly. Moving to Rapids Bay, MN to take over as a brewer for Spirit of Hops was the right move for us. I needed a fresh start, my daughter needed a chance to grow up without ghosts of the past, and we both needed a change in scenery. Georgie and Work, that's my world and in that order. But life doesn't like the best-laid plans and when opportunity literally comes crashing into you, you have to take a chance, right?
