During WWII, Avelino Carrillo spent four harrowing years in the South Pacific with one thought driving his survival: to return to his beloved home in Napa Valley.
The Carrillos have a history in the valley that stretches deep, like grapevine roots in the soil. For a century, they worked the vineyard at their family home, la Casa de los Sueños, until they lost the property to a wealthy land baron. Now, Avelino is determined to reclaim the land and home he loves so much. When he meets Amelia, a young woman who lives at the vineyard with her grandfather, he finds that regaining his birthright isn't his only struggle - he battles the longing of his heart as well.
Can Avelino overcome the local bigotry and personal demons that face him to create the life he desires?

Also, it was a bit difficult to follow the stories of the two Avalinos. Did they have to have the same name? No explanation of who the 2nd Avalino was named after or why. He did say that he was not related to the first Avalino. So how & why did he get his name?
And then suddenly it ended. Boom. Just like that it ended & Avalino was old & Amelia was dead already. Nothing about their lives together. It’s like all of the really interesting details of their lives were just left out. Horrible abrupt ending.
What could have been a great story just flopped.
The narrator did a good job though.
