Nel 1970, la diciottenne Violet Hawkins, detta Lettie, ha un unico desiderio: abbandonare la
famiglia affidataria in Ohio e spostarsi sulla costa occidentale, dove spera di trovare quell'amore
che le è mancato fino a quel momento.
Arrivata a San Francisco e in cerca di lavoro, Lettie accetta l'offerta del giovane Kenton
Chandler di seguirlo in Oregon, per lavorare nella piccola locanda del padre.
Inizia così per Lettie una nuova vita nella Willamette Valley. La famiglia Chandler l'accoglie con
affetto, i vigneti che fanno parte della proprietà la affascinano e, nel giro di poco, si sposa con
Kenton. Finalmente, Lettie vede davanti a sé un futuro sereno.
Purtroppo, il destino ha altri piani in serbo per lei, e Lettie si troverà ad affrontare una serie di
sfide che la mettono duramente alla prova. Fino a una scoperta scioccante destinata a cambiare
tutto.
In 1970, Violet Hawkins' only wish at eighteen is to escape her life in the Dayton, Ohio, foster-care system and make her way to the west coast to enjoy a mellow life and find the love she's been missing all her life. She makes it to San Francisco, but soon learns she needs a job if she's to live properly. A kind, young man named Kenton Chandler offers her a sandwich and a job at his father's inn and vineyards. With nothing to lose, Lettie takes him up on his offer and begins a whole new life in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. She immediately falls in love with the land and is fascinated with the idea of growing grapes in order to make wines. She, Kenton, and Rafe Lopez become friends as she learns about running the small inn on the property.
At the same time she marries Kenton, a stroke kills his father. And then before she can tell Kenton she's pregnant, he dies in an automobile accident. Heartbroken and burdened with the gift of the Chandler Hill Inn and Winery, she's left with the task of making them a success. Struggling to raise a child alone while working to grow the business, Lettie makes a shocking discovery that changes everything.
