Love grows where you least expect to find it…
When ambitious workaholic Sarah Wells discovers she has inherited her estranged father’s vineyard near Montalcino in Tuscany, the last thing she wants is to take time away from her busy schedule to sort out a crumbling mess of a palazzo. But, of course, life never runs runs smoothly and when she makes a rare error, her bosses decide a holiday is just what she needs.
When Sarah arrives in Italy, she learns that she is not her father’s sole heir. In fact, she only has a partial stake in Castello di Sant’ Angelo because of a loophole in Italian law. Her father has left the vineyard instead to his business partner, the gorgeous Tomasso Di Biassi – and Tomasso doesn’t want to sell.
At first, Sarah wants the deal done as quickly as possible so she can get back to her life in London, but it seems Italy has other plans for her. Under the warmth of the Tuscan sun, with a glass or two of the local vino rosso, and brooding Tomasso challenging her all the way , Sarah starts to realise that that there might just be something to la dolce vita
My Review  5 STARS
**My thanks to Harper Collins UK, for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

I seriously loved this book.  The author either did serious amounts of research or she knows about the wine making process along with Tuscany and its local foods.  I really felt like i was learning about wines while i read this book!

This author really knows how to weave a tale together in a way that really sucks you in, making you invested in the characters and the people around them.

Londoner Sarah Wells has to go to her late father's estate to pack up his belonging only to find that he has left everything to his business partner, then finding with Italian law that she can inherit half.

When she finally meets the business partner she finds it is the boy that she was in love with all those years ago when she used to spend her summers at her father's estate.

After reading this book i have a serious case of wanting to travel to Tuscany to feel the heat on my skin and experience the flavours of the local food.

This is an epic holiday read and a book not to be missed.
