A Toast for Laurent (Vine Valley Book 1) by Theresa Paolo – Review by Rebeca Elliott Figueiras

A Toast for Laurent by Theresa Paolo
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Vine Valley series and it’s a great introduction to the Grasso family. This book has 2 romance tropes a second chance as well as one of my favourites, a fake relationship.

The story was well constructed and the author’s descriptive language painted vivid images of the characters and the surrounding scenery.
The characters were also written well, their emotions were evident, especially those of Laurent towards Phoebe. I admit, to begin with I wasn’t Phoebe’s biggest fan and thought Laurent deserved better, but as the story unfolded, I came to understand the reasons behind he actions a little better and she grew on me.

I enjoyed this and I look forward to the next in the series.
