Clementine is the rightful heir to the House of Peine, the vineyard that has been in the family for generations.

But now that the Peine patriarch is dead, his will stipulates that Clementine must share the vineyard with a half-sister she has‛t seen in twenty years and another she did‛t even know existed. As one vineyard brings three estranged siblings together, readers will savor this heartfelt toast to sisterhood and inspired celebration of Champagne.
