Review to comeLiam Bennett and Giuliana Baci have been circling each other for the past year. Whenever the two of them are in the vicinity of the other, they barbs seem to fly. What's behind those barbs are anyone's guess.

Guiliana figures she only has four more weeks at the family winery before she can cut her losses and deal with unfinished business between she and Liam. Although her sister's may not like what's she's planning, she'll keep the promise she made to her mother as she was dying and take care of her sisters.

Liam has learned to be good at keeping secrets. His father taught him from a young age about keeping secrets. While he wants to deal with the issues hanging over his relationship with Giuliana, he can't bear to share the secrets that played such a large part in their history.

Secrets have a way of weaseling their way out and soon everything is out in the open. Will any of it make a difference and finally allow Liam and Giuliana have the life they hoped for?

I was a little disappointed with this one? I have been waiting for this book since I read the Allie and Penn's story 18 months ago. I just KNEW there was more going on between these two characters than what we were seeing in the other 2 books. While their involvement was just as I had suspected, the hostility and the secrets were just a little too much for me.

I did love the secondary story with Kohl and Grace, although I'm not really sure what Kohl's blackouts were about. Did they have a point or were they just there as a diversionary tactic from the real culprit of the vandalism going on in town?

Don't get me wrong, this was still a good story, but it was a bit disappointing ending to the series.
