There are secrets you share, and secrets you hide…
When Georgia Ford returns to her family’s vineyard on the eve of her wedding, a secret has shaken her world to its core. She yearns for the rituals of harvest, the comfort of her mother’s lasagne, her brothers’ camaraderie - but this year the family farmhouse is rife with undercurrents. Her parents’ long marriage is revealed to be far from perfect , and her brothers, Bobby and Finn, are badly at odds.
As the storm clouds gather over their vineyard’s last harvest, sibling rivalry, marriage vows and the promise of the future are strained to breaking point. Can Georgia and her family make their peace with the secrets they have hidden from each other?
