Secrets of Bella Terra is the first in a trilogy centered around a wine making family the Di Lucas. Filled with romance and suspense (and a long standing mystery), this book is highly entertaining. Rafe Di Luca has come back to California after many years away. He reconnects with his former friend and lover, Brooke, who still burns for him, as he does for her. Throw in an 80 year old grandmother who has been attacked in her home and Rafe/Brook have a mystery to solve and a relationship to mend. There were a few loose ends in the story and the heroine was slightly annoying. Still, a good read.
Enjoyed the development of the two main characters. Plot held my interest throughout.

An alright book. I wanted to shake both Rafe and Brooke's mother at times, particularly when they have the big "showdown". Thankfully I borrowed it from the library, no buyer's remorse here.
