'Jodi McAlister has once again written a book that's clever, sexy and full of heart. A Study in Sparkling is a rom-com of a fine vintage - a full-bodied, complex and delightful story about second chances and passion. Fiona and Satoshi's steamy and heartwarming romance is a heady delight from the beginning to end - I couldn't put it down.' 

– Steph Vizard, author of The Love Contract

'A Study In Sparkling is an effervescent, intoxicating romance. If you're into competency porn, secure, sexy, softboy sommeliers and delicious wine, look no further. Romance mastermind Jodi McAlister builds out the background characters we fell for in An Academic Affair, with newly single mum Fiona living a friends-with-benefits fantasy with Satoshi, the younger babe behind her favourite local wine bar. Delicious to the last drop, this is a book to savour with a glass of something special.'

– Clare Fletcher, author of Love Match
