SYNOPSIS - 

The #1 bestseller is back with an uplifting, escapist read that will brighten the gloomiest day!

A sun-baked terrace. The rustle of vines. And the clink of wine glasses as the first cork of the evening is popped...

Welcome to Italy. A place that holds the answer to Zia-Lucia Costa Chalmers' many questions. Not least, how she ended up with such a mouthful of a name.

When revelations close to home turn Zia's world upside down, she realises the time has come to search out the Italian family she's never known.

But as she looks for answers, she can't help but notice Piero, the vineyard owner next door - a distraction who may prove difficult to ignore...

This summer, join Zia as she sets out to uncover her past. But can she find the future she's always dreamed of along the way?

The perfect summer read for fans of Katie Fforde and Carole Matthews.

Well I just knew I wasn't going to be disappointed in this book, right from the first few pages. I was hooked and read it in 2 days, which is good for me as I'm a slow reader.

I loved all the characters and their differing personalities. Even controlling Gabriella. Piero just sounded like your ideal man and Zia, the main character was like someone you'd have as a best friend. It was wonderful to travel on Zia's journey with her to find her Italian Family, who she had never met before. She was to discover many family secrets. 

Sue Moorcroft has based her many books in various countries, including France Malta and Switzerland. The wonderful descriptive writing of the areas, especially in this book with its vineyards, makes you feel you have personally been there before. Ms Moorcroft really brings the areas to life.

A wonderful read, albeit with some traumas included; a feelgood book, full of love and friendships.
