Publisher's summary

Housewife and mother with a loving husband to take care of her—that's all Liz, a '50s gal, ever wanted. Over her father's objections, she drops out of college to marry Rick, who dreams of living off the land. They buy a farm on a verdant hillside in the Hudson Valley, but can't agree on what to plant. When they discover French-American hybrid grapes, Liz is confident they'll be happy. Grapes are classy.

As the rich soil sinks into her soul and the vines begin to thrive, the marriage grows rocky. Refusing to disappoint her father again, Liz is determined to make her marriage work...until she discovers a photograph hidden in the old barn.

Faced with impossible decisions, Liz is desperate. She has a vineyard ready to harvest and no idea how to accomplish the task. Does she have the moxie to flourish? Or will she and the land turn fallow?

Okay story, Terrible narrator

Sadly the narration is so awful I’m not even sure if the story was good. The narrator sounds monotone. She just reads but doesn’t act out the story.

The general idea of the story is good. I like the idea for an all female wine making team and truly wished for their success.

I didn’t enjoy the sex scenes. I never like those so I did my best to skip through.

I also didn’t feel the political comments were necessary. They didn’t help the story move along and were off putting.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
