Principios del siglo XX. Bajo el sol de California y entre viñedos, May Desmond disfruta, por fin, de la vida por la que tanto ha luchado. Acaba de adquirir una bodega en la que ha volcado todas las esperanzas, pero la llegada inminente de la ley seca amenaza con truncarlo todo. Sin embargo, ha recorrido un largo camino como para darse por vencida.
Tras su mirada serena, May oculta una falsa identidad y una historia marcada por el dolor y la pérdida que nadie conoce. Desde sus orígenes humildes en el sur de España hasta la traumática experiencia de sobrevivir al naufragio del Titanic y su paso por La Habana -donde conoció el amor y el desengaño, la ambición y la traición-, la joven siempre ha desafiado la fuerza del destino y no dudará en volver a hacerlo.
Con el fascinante paisaje de los viñedos del valle de Napa como telón de fondo, esta novela nos descubre una mujer valiente capaz de abrirse paso en un mundo desalmado, donde los secretos y las emociones laten con la fuerza embriagadora del vino.

Early 20th century. Under the California sun and surrounded by vineyards, May Desmond is finally enjoying the life she has fought so hard for. She has just acquired a winery in which she has poured all her hopes, but the imminent arrival of Prohibition threatens to ruin everything. However, she has come too far to give up.
Behind her serene gaze, May hides a false identity and a history marked by pain and loss that no one knows about. From her humble origins in southern Spain to the traumatic experience of surviving the sinking of the Titanic and her time in Havana—where she experienced love and heartbreak, ambition and betrayal—the young woman has always defied the forces of fate and will not hesitate to do so again.
With the fascinating landscape of the Napa Valley vineyards as a backdrop, this novel reveals a courageous woman capable of making her way in a heartless world, where secrets and emotions beat with the intoxicating force of wine.
