Get Access Between The Vines Brought To You By Tricia Stringer Accessible Through Document
have come to the conclusion no offence to any other of the great Aussie writers that Tricia Stringer and Rachael Johns are my favorite writers.
I enjoy every one of their fantastic books, I can't wait to find out what happens in the storyline but then I am disappointed that the book if finished, Between the Vines was a joy to read, I just couldn't put it down!
I highly recommend this book which seems to get better with each page you read.
Although I worked out who the bad guy/girl is, I still didn't pick everything that was going to happen, A good book a great read, It was your typical romance book, This is my first time reading something by Tricia Stringer and I really enjoyed this story, I throughly enjoyed reading this book a rural romance set in Coonawarra of young woman search for love and job, TAYLOR Rouke falls for Ed I dont know how much Id even call this a straightup Romance but it is a somewhat unconventional contemporary Australian domestic drama, set in a vineyard, with a romantic plotline.
We see through the eyes of all three main characters: two orphaned brothers who own a Coonwarra vineyard but are on the verge of sliding into a feud, and the woman who strays into their lives.
I loved the competence porn Taylor might be a bit of a stray at the start of the book, but she works hard and is good at the bits of winemaking and administration that she picks up.
I liked the winemaking details and the sense of place, The Coonawarra reminds me of my beloved Margaret River region which is where my next read is coming from, The Grass is Greener.
The romance didnt carry a lot in the way of surprises for me, but it was sweet and it rang true.
I liked that the brothers impending feud was drawn realistically, without one being a cartoonish villain and one an unblemished hero, Peter and Edward had different ideas about the direction the vineyard should be going, with credible motivations and actions, This dynamic is the main driver of the action of the book,
This is a strong book, especially for those who dream of a vine change to an Australian vineyard, OK, ok, I can't think of a good vineyardrelated word that rhymes with "sea" and "tree", Apologies. "Chablis change" Lastly, if a series was being contemplated, I would love a M/M romance from Antoines point of view! I loved this well written book.
A great story and wonderful characters, This one took a bit to get into but enjoyed it after that, It's great how Tricia writes about different types of farming ie, This one was about grape growers and how they make the wine, Growing of grapes for the wine industry certainly came out in this story set in South Australia, Legacy left for brothers to make ago of and a van of women doing a hen's crawl of the area a chance meet for Taylor.
Some mystery n innuendo in the story could have been a different outcome, I live in a winery area n plead ignorance of what's goes on mainly, She's given up everything for love: it could be the biggest mistake of her life, . .

As the lies and deceit grow, matters come to a head in the vibrant and demanding vintage season, Will Taylor's dream of a new life and love between the vines come true Or is there only heartbreak ahead
Set in the beautiful Coonawarra vineyards, a wonderful feelgood rural romance from bestselling Australian author, Tricia Stringer.
Between the Vines is a novel of beautiful and intriguing setting, Set in the famed South Australian vineyards, in Coonawarra, it lends a gorgeous amp sunny air as the atmosphere of the novel.
Being set within the vineyard itself with characters involved in winemaking engages my curiosity and also reminds me that I need another holiday!
The initial attraction between Taylor and Ed was thrilling.
Taylor hasnt had the best of luck in the men department so whilst she wanted to take the chance with Ed, she also needed to take it slow.
As it turned out, he wasnt what he seemed, Pete, on the other hand, is a bit like the boy next door a lovely man whom youd not glance twice if you walk past them on the street.
Tension between these three characters were drawn taut but with a clear line of whats really the best outcome for them all.
For some reason, I got really confused between Ed and Pete I kept forgetting which brother is which! in the beginning so I needed my full concentration reading that I even missed my train stop grump but I got into the swing of it pretty soon.
I also seemed to have missed the humour in the Fs, . . I found this penchant of Taylor actually annoying and could do without it,
Overall, Between the Vines is a fine leisure read, Unfortunately, as this was a trainread for me, I could not have a glass a wine whilst reading though I really really wanted to this would have improved my reading experience.
Thanks Harlequin Australia for eARC via NetGalley in exchange of honest review blah, . . very disappointed! boring storyline and near non existent love story, I normally like tricia stringer but this was definitely notof her finest As I am travelling to the Coonawarra region in April, this was the obvious pick off my shelf of backlist books to read.
I have read Tricia's latest offering The Model Wife and enjoyed that so had no hesitation in choosing Between the Vines,
Taylor is single with a couple of failed relationships behind her, She is the designated driver for her friends who head to Coonawarra for a hens weekend, One of the wineries they visit is a small winery called Wriggly Creek wines, whilst there she meets the two brothers who coown the winery.
She is immediately taken with Ed and vice versa, After returning back to Adelaide she is fired from her job and decides to return to Coonawarra and see if a relationship with Ed has any merit.
She finishes up being offered a casual job working at the winery where she learns all about the growing and production of wine.
She finds that working with the brothers has its challenges, and when they start arguing between themselves about the future of the winery she is caught between the two.
I would describe this book as Women's Fiction rather than Rural Romance as it had a compelling story which touched on romance but had its share of drama too.
I was immediately captivated by the plot and I loved the descriptions of the Coonawarra region and I learned about the process of making wine in the other red centre of Australia.
