Aching from the recent loss of a constant companion, Carina DiGratia Shephard longs to return to the shelter of her close-knit family. Her husband, Quillan, is bent on proving his devotion, and they begin the arduous journey to the home of her youth nestled in the vineyards of Sonoma, California. But their arrival at the DiGratia estate is not the joyous occasion they expected.

This story accounts the rest of the details that are needed to complete the work of the wonderful series starting with Diamond of the Rockies. The narration had a bit to be desired, but was good enough. The story I will enjoy again and again. I’ve read this series 6 times and now listened through all 3 once. Highly recommend.

Thank you,
Samantha

The narrator has a soothing voice that puts me in a calm mood. I love Kristen Heitzman’s characters and her ability to get me lost in the story. Quinlan and Carina‘s character arcs come to a realistic yet beautiful point with this conclusion to the series.

A favorite when I need to relax

My wife read the whole series 3 times before we downloaded the Audible version. Together we listened to the first 3 novels in the series.

What an experience! It brought us together for a special listening experience!

Thank you Kristen for such a believable story. You must have done a tremendous amount of research on these stories. And yes there is a Crystal, Colorado!

Renee’ what a great narration of the series. Felt like we were really there with the characters!

God bless you both,
