The True Purpose of Vines (The Winemakers Book 1) by Giovanna Siniscalchi – Review by Angela Hayes

The True Purpose of Vines by Giovanna Siniscalchi
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 Stars

The True Purpose of Vines is the first book in The Winemakers series and debut novel by Giovanna Siniscalchi. Can we take a moment to appreciate this beautiful cover!! It’s what drew me to the book in the first place, then when I read the blurb, I was completely sold.
This is primarily an historical romance but comes with such a unique identity and flair that sets it apart from others in the same genre. Set in Portugal in the 1870’s, that author expertly weaves a tale that easily transports us through time into a rich, vibrant, and entirely picturesque setting, which definitely gave the story and extra element of interest for me.
I was pulled into a well-woven story filled with wonderful details and descriptions, culture, drama, agendas, secrets, winemaking, vineyards, chemistry, real history, and romance. The author has crafted wonderful characters and I was quite taken with them, soon finding myself investing in them and their story. Captivated till the very end.
This appears to be the author’s debut novel, so I look forward to reading more of her work in the future. Definitely an author to watch out for as this novel holds promises of even better things to come. Looking forward to seeing what the rest of the series holds.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Giovanna Siniscalchi!
