There is also Dana’s employer, the hot and young Rys McCall who adores Dana but Rys’ Father Eric McCall hates Dana and wants her out of the project at any cost.

Can Nick live happily ever after with Dana?

Why does Eric McCall hate Danna ?

What is Dana’s secret?

You will need to read this book to get the answers !

This book has the right mix of suspense and romance to keep you glued and turning pages (in my case swiping pages).

The language is easy and the plot is tightly built but to my disappointment, this book just builds up the plot and the suspense but the mystery will be gradually unraveled in the upcoming parts of the Providence Island Series.

 FINAL VERDICT - I loved the way the suspense builds up and unravels, the romance is typical hot man meets hot woman and sparks fly type but likeable. It is a readable book to curl up with on windy nights. I rate it a 3.5/5 .

    Seems to be an interesting read, in a lil cliched context. But intrigues at the same time. Great review.

Wine Tasting - The SULA Riesling 2017

Moliere ,The famous French poet had once said ,“Great is the fortune of he who possesses a good bottle, a good book and a good friend.” I guess then, I am definitely among the blessed and thank you God! I was introduced to wine long back (when my Father was posted overseas) but have seriously started appreciating the taste and flavors of wine only recently. Turning another leaf in my wine tasting journey, today I shall be reviewing the “Sula Riesling” for my readers.                                        Sula Riesling (source -Sulawines.com) Before I venture into the tasting, I am tempted to share a few wine facts first. WINE DRINKING IN INDIA  With evolving times drinking wine has become acceptable and fashionable in our society and the fairer sex is no exception to the trend but there is plenty of evidence to suggest that wine was a popular drink in India even centuries ago. In the Rig- Veda we find mention of wine. Grog shops were in existence then.

                                               Price - Rs 482/- plus taxes for 375 ml (this wine is only available in half bottles ) Sula vineyards were established in Nashik, Maharasthra in 1998 by Rajeev Samant and the Sula wines are one of the most popular wines in the Indian Wine Market. The Grape - Chenin Blanc  Chenin Blanc is a profoundly versatile white-wine grape variety that has been cultivated in France for nearly 1300 years. The high acidity levels of Chenin Blanc allow it to be vinified in a number of different styles:from sweetly voluptuous dessert wines to light sparkling wines and as full-bodied, still white wines. Chenin Blanc is a very popular varietal commercially because, the vine bears its buds early and ripens late, the sugar content can vary a lot , thus the wine from this grape allows itself to be be crafted to any level of sweetness, ranging from bone-dry, crisp and sparkling styles to a downright sweet dessert wines.
