OMG! What a great teaser! It's enough to get a sense of what the book will be like, and if you weren't already excited about reading The Winemaker's Dinner?!? This should do it.
I recommend you read this short Outtake. It's erotic as hell, but then that's no surprise considering the author if you know what I mean...and I think you do :)
Sara (is in love with boys who love boys)
WOW! All that from an outtake! What a great setup for the full release later this month!

In this we get to meet Dr. Ivan Rusilko, a doctor in Miami Beach specializing in women, in many different ways.

"I have the distinct privilege of being the physician who can make you look, feel great, and fuck like a superstar."

Smart, sexy, confident and looking for a connection we follow Ivan to the Annual Winemakers Dinner. In a few short pages we learn that beyond the sexy is a romantic heart.

Sexy little introduction to the romantic Hero from The Winemaker's Dinner - Dr. Ivan. It's written in first person so you really get into Ivan's head and heart in this little nugget. Short, sweet and sexy as hell.

Goodreads Description:

Meet Dr. Ivan Rusilko: He’s a doctor at a world-class medical facility in Miami, he’s got a killer apartment on Miami Beach that overlooks Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline, and he’s got a great group of friends and quite the social schedule. It’s a pretty damned charmed life, but something’s missing. He’d love a special someone to share it with—someone to laugh with, share his dreams with, and someone to just plain tickle his fancy. After a string of utterly forgettable b...more

Holy smokes if these prequels are any indication of what THE WINEMAKER’S DINNER: APPETIZERS will be like, I am so in line to read this book! I am a self professed novella/short story hater, and well…I actually liked these!! BUT, it’s also knowing there is a full length novel on the way.

Now, while I enjoyed Jaden’s POV, I must say Dr. Ivan read a bit more smoothly for me. It was so easy to flow right along with this style. Not sure what the difference was, but there was a writing style ‘feel’ th...more

I am disappointed. From the beginning to the end to the beginning again, I am crushed. What started out as hope and an unending passionate love...ended in emptiness. I truly hope there is a better ending to this romance story than protect your ego because the woman you fell in love with makes a mistake. And a mistake that she did not make even unconsciously. Only, too late to make a change in what she thought of herself. OMG...What is love that does not go beyond self to understand and forgive?...more

Was pleasantly surprised how much this read as an autobiography. That means when the full Monty debuts soon, it should be very enticing indeed. Cannot wait !

In this Novella, we get to meet Dr. Ivan Rusilko, a doctor in Miami Beach. He works at a state of the art medical facility in a swanky hotel and has a killer apartment on the ocean. He describes himself unabashedly.
“I have the distinct privilege of being the physician who can make you look, feel great, and fuck like a superstar.”
Well hello…I was already sold. At first glimpse he’s smart, sexy, a bit cocky looking for an everlasting love. Okay too good to be true….right?
We begin the journey a...more

Nice introduction to Dr. Ivan Rusilko and the practice he works for,
plastic surgery, cosmetic dentistry and sexolgist gives the reader a sense
of beautiful people. His flash back of "Ms. Sexy Hyde" the one who got away
is steamy and HOT!

His weekend trip to the Annual Winemaker's Dinner will have the reader
rushing to get the next book:

Kathy
Oh, my!! *fanning self* Move over Christian Grey and Gideon Cross! There's a new hero in town! If this prequel is any indication of what's to come in "The Winemaker's Dinner: Appetizers," then I am definitely up for the ride! The extremely handsome and sexy (in a very uninhibited way, as well as physically) doctor has lost love in a tragic sense, leaving him broken. Yet, he yearns to find that special someone that he will love more tomorrow than today. The fact that this prequel was in Dr. Rusil...more
Gayle

Wow, this an extremely short little book but it is definitely hot and steamy.

My reason for a 4 star rather than 5 was the very abrupt ending that left me hanging on mid air. Thankfully, I have the next short story available and downloaded in my e-reader, so won't have to wait long.
Otelia Schwartz
This is the 2nd prequel to the Winemaker's Dinner and we are introduced to Dr. Ivan Rusilko. A man who loves his job( but loves to have fun), loves his family(and misses them) and is drop dead gorgeous. This man wants to find love and from this short book it pack a big punch. Enjoy this book.
Natasha ツ
This is a 21 Page Prequel to the Winemaker's Trilogy and it looks very promising. Can't wait to start reading the first book tonight. This is no fictional hero, Dr Ivan is a flesh-and-blood hottie en super smart guy.
Rosina Scott
This teaser for The Winemaker's Dinner is just that a teaser, it leaves you wanting more. Wanting to know more about Dr. Ivan and the woman that broke his heart, aswell as the stories of what's to come.

The story is from Ivan's point of view and his being the real inspiration for the character he has lent his name to in the book is a somewhat novel aspect to this genre. Drawing you into the tale as he bares his heart and soul for all to see.

Incredibly steamy short sex scene that leaves you wantin...more
Ann
Incredibly short intro about Dr. Rusilko prior to the Winemaker's Dinner trilogy. We'll see how the rest of this story plays out....
Debbi
Uh oh. I just realized I never reviewed this book. This was our first introduction to Dr. Ivan Rusilko's solo writing. It was a wonderful teaser and a sexy read that gives you a look into the sexiest city in the world and a little glimpse of the lifestyle that he leads. If you are new to The Winemaker's Dinner, this is a must read as it leads up to the beginning of Appetizer's and gives you insight on his past and present state of mind, his personality, sense of humor and style, and tastes in mu...more
Kath
Very short story, but enjoyed it, until the very abrupt ending, however got the next book already.
Erin
I enjoyed this story even though it was rather short. The ending certainly left me wanting more.
Helen Peter
Wonderful writing. Looking forward to reading The first book of the Trilogy.
Laura
oh, Ivan. I'm smitten. totally smitten
J *I did it all for the nookie.The book nookie*
Quick short introduction to Ivan in the Winemaker's Dinner series.
Sherri
I am so impressed with Ivan's writing! I get so wrapped up in his words...I feel like I'm actually sitting inside his thoughts just being a spectator! I can feel his love and emotions like it was right there on my sleeve! Like one of my friends said - it's like I can smell what he smells, tastes what he tastes, love how he loves!

I need more from this man! <3
Shirley
Absolutely LOVED this prequel short for The Winemaker's Feast series. Great way to not only introduce Dr.Ivan Rusilko and who he is, but perfectly set the stage for what was in store for readers. There was no doubt in my mind that this was a MUST read series and it left me anxiously awaiting the release of book one, "Appetizers". And, if I hadn't known, I would not have been able to tell you that this was Dr. Rusilko's debut as a writer of erotic romance. A five star rating system just isn't eno...more
Dreams
Review to come when I finish the "main" book as this is a short "prologue" leading up to the book...not much to review...
Katherine
After reading the out take No Reaervations also, I can't decide which point of view I like better. Excited for the book to finally be available to read!!! I'm from FL, so it is nice to read about home.
Rebecca Nufer
Excellent read, I can't wait to read the next one!
Tiffany
Great read!! Both prequels, "RSVP" & "No Reservations" are womderful shorts to read before the story begins!
C.L. Pardington
WOW, what an incredible debut book! I love Ivan's style of writing and it definitely left me wanting more. I got to the last sentence of the last page and screamed "Noooo, you can't end now!" lol
But luckily the wait is a short one!
Teresa
Absolutely loved it! This was a perfect introduction for The Winemaker's Dinner! Dr. Ivan gives a wonderful character point of view and sets you up for a great book. I can't wait for the book to come out now! Great job!
