ONE FAMILY
THREE GENERATIONS
SOME SECRETS NEVER DIE . . .

Elise would do anything to inherit Sainte Madeleine, the vineyard that's been home to the Salignacs for generations. Only Laurent Senard, a distant cousin, is a rival for her heart - yet when a family rift sends her on a new and dangerous path, she risks losing them both . . .

Alexandre, Elise's brother, can't bear to see their capricious father put the vineyard - and Alex's birthright - in jeopardy. He leaves to carve out his own fortune in the rich hills of Napa, California. But will turning his back on the chateau be his biggest mistake?

Sweeping through the 1920s to WWII and beyond, this is the story of the Salignac family - the loves that bind them, the secrets that threaten to divide them, and the chateau that will always call them home.
