My Book Review > 'Late Summer in the Vineyard', by Jo Thomas
âLate Summer in the Vineyardâ is not just a book of love; itâs not just about a woman who falls for a man. Yes, of course, thereâs a budding love affair; but there is much more!
Emmy, an English woman in her mid-thirties who devoted her life to helping her Dad (since her Momâs death), will ultimately find the man of her life, her soulmate. But, first and foremost, sheâll start a new life; sheâll fall in love with France, winery, wine-making⊠and a frail old French woman (the owner of âClos Beaumontâ) who will help her to unveil her real self.
Against all odds, the shy and sweet woman who knew nothing about wine, wine making, or even France will have Madame Beaumontâs best interests at heart and will fight fearlessly to defend and promote her winery. And, with the help of a man whom she initially didnât value, she will succeed!
This experience helped Emmy to find her innerstrength; she gained courage, confidence⊠and love. A beautiful story, indeed; I enjoyed this book!
