Once I got into the book I didn't want to put it down. New developments kept occurring and I hated when the book ended because I really want to know what is going to happen next!!! I recommend this book to everyone
The writer kept me emotionally attached the whole time. I could see everything in my mind.
Thrilling and suspenseful. Kept me wanting more.
This is a must read!!
I thought the novel was great!!! I do not typically read period pieces, but once I started it wasn’t heavy on the war end – story could’ve been set in present day with almost any war if one at all. The imagery portrayed by the author was spot on - the mystery, history, secrets and romances – after the 1st few pages I felt like I was on the vineyard myself ready to work.
While reading I had ALL types of hypothesis on where the story was going, but alas - the author caught me off guard! Huge twists and turns!!! Loved it.
Excited to read more from this author. Ready for “The Italian Rose PART Due (2)!!!!”
Well written--a great storyteller. An up and comer to watch. Interesting plot line and great descriptive character development. Looking forward to the sequel.
Free up some time in your schedule when you start this book, because you will not want to put it down! You immediately become vested into Beretta family. I felt like I was present at the table during the meals! I enjoyed the vivid imagery and mesmerizing story line. I cannot wait for the next one!
