| Summary, Etc. |
She's counting down the days until she leaves Tuscany. He's counting on making her stay. Some people go to Tuscany to find themselves. Allegra Bianchi goes to escape -- New York, her ex's new relationship, and a career that derailed the moment she was passed over for partner. Her plan is simple: settle her eccentric Italian grandmother's estate, sell whatever isn't nailed down, and return to the life she's worked too hard to lose. Instead, she walks into a mess -- a crumbling antique shop, two hundred acres of leased vineyard land, and one infuriating clause in the will: live and work in the shop for three months, or inherit nothing. Then there's the neighbor she clashes with instantly. Matteo Lucchese is the infuriatingly handsome winemaker who leases her family's land and refuses to be impressed by her credentials -- or her attitude. He's rugged and stubborn, stuck living in a time that feels long past, and the word rush isn't part of his vocabulary. Basically, they're exact opposites. But as the days stretch into weeks, Tuscany chips away at the armor Allegra doesn't realize she's wearing, and Matteo shows her the appeal of slowing down, of staying rooted, of wanting something other than climbing the corporate ladder. She goes to Tuscany to escape. But now that the countdown to going home is on, Allegra isn't sure she's ready to leave. And the life she's falling for comes with a looming expiration date.
