This was such a cute and dreamy premise for a book. An ultra-successful NYC businesswoman unexpectedly inherits an old Italian vineyard. She has to decide what to do about the vineyard, her career, and her future.
As she gets to know the staff at the vineyard, she learns a lot about them, their histories, and their work for her grandfather. Eventually she knows she’ll have to decide what her future holds.
What I loved: the setting, the characters, and how Ericka started to learn about herself and what she really wanted as soon as she left the hustle of NYC.
What I didn’t: The dialogue between most characters was forced and slow. There was a lot of time where the writing was telling the reader so much of what could have been described. The plot was also SUPER linear. Zero bumps in the road except a minor one at the beginning. I would have loved actual conflict or a decision point for the MC that was steeped in actual self-growth.
Overall, a really pleasant, feel-good read.
