Sometimes the most magical stories aren't found in books. They're lived.
Thriving on the edge in London, Jona Montiniere has a knack for finding trouble. The seventeen-year-old orphan is a professional at dodging the law and surviving on wits-until a brush with the authorities and a surprise reunion with her estranged mother sends her spiraling into an unexpected journey to the magical vineyards of France. Attached to this unwelcome adventure is Julian, her mother's caretaker. The impossibly handsome guy is a walking enigma, wrapped in charm and danger-sometimes infuriatingly close, other times frustratingly distant. Caught between her rebellious instincts to run and a budding romance that feels like a fairytale, Jona soon has to decide whether she'll embrace a future she never wanted or let the shadows of her past drag her back into a darkness from which there is no escape. Love comes with a deadline in this fairytale. And the clock is ticking...
