Family-owned winery Hollander Estates is on the brink of having to sell. The women of the Hollender family, Vivian, Leah, and Sadie, come together for what could be their final summer at the vineyard. As they all begin to see different sides of each other, they begin to see a way that they can save their family's legacy.


This kind of contemporary fiction is not what I typically pick up but I'm so glad I did! Reading this truly felt like sipping wine on the patio of a gorgeous winery. The chapters are short and almost always split into different perspectives which made this a breeze to read.


I always love following multiple perspectives, and I loved all three Hollander women, each trying to carve out their place in the world. There was so much female empowerment and reclaiming of joy. So much of the world thrives on shaming women for what they like - whether its "trashy" novels or taking selfies - and so I loved seeing these women go after what brings them joy and follow their intuition.
