Synopsis

Escape to France with LATE SUMMER IN THE VINEYARD - Jo Thomas's irresistible follow-up to THE OYSTER CATCHER and THE OLIVE BRANCH. 'A fabulous French feast of fun' Milly Johnson

Emmy Bridges has always looked out for others.
It's time she put down roots of her own.

Working for a wine-maker in France is the opportunity of a lifetime for Emmy. Even if she doesn't know a thing about wine - beyond what's on offer at the local supermarket.

There's plenty to get to grips with in the rustic town of Petit Frère. Emmy's new work friends need more than a little winning over. Then there's her infuriatingly brash tutor, Isaac, and the enigmatic Madame Beaumont tucked away in her vineyard of secrets.

But Emmy will soon realise that in life - just as in wine-making - the best things happen when you let go and trust your instincts. Particularly when there's romance in the air...

'This book is scrumptious! Fantastic setting, endearingly human characters and a page turning plot. I couldn't stop reading' Katie Fforde

'What a gorgeous book! Reading it felt like the best kind of holiday' Lucy Diamond

'A warm-hearted, sparkling gem... It's the perfect summer escape and I loved it!' Miranda Dickinson

'Captures the essence of France from the vineyards and chateaux to the glorious sunshine and of course, the wine' Cathy Bramley
