Event Description

Join us at Brighton library to celebrate the release of a delightful, warm and captivating rural romance from the bestselling author of Paperbark Hill. Maya Linnell will be in conversation with another bestselling author and multi-award winner, Nicola Marsh.

April Lacey is determined to lead her family's Limestone Coast winery into the future, but soon discovers the crumbling historic building and her father's reluctance to join the food tourism revolution are just the beginning of her uphill battle.

English winemaker Connor Jamison has travelled to South Australia's iconic wine region to learn from the experts and carve a name for himself in the industry. However, it quickly becomes clear that Connor's past continues to nip at his heels.

United by food, music and an unexpected involvement in the Penwarra Country Show, April and Connor seem like the perfect match, but with old flames, new challenges and careers conspiring to keep them apart, can this pair forge their own path together?

Books will be available to purchase on the night.
