While I don’t want to spoil anything my heart broke for Anton and the way his life changed after that summer.

Her story played out like a beautiful romantic tragedy set in stunning Italy.

While I wanted answers for Fiona, I really enjoyed the timeline of her mother in 1986. Why did her real father never contact Fiona? What happened between her and her mother? Why did he leave her? Who is this new family?! What a call to wake up to! I had so many questions that needed answers. She worked at the vineyard and These Tangled Vines goes into her relationship with Anton Clark and her husband Freddie.įrom the First Chapter of These Tangled Vines, You’ll be GrippedĬhapter one hits hard. His disregard for her happiness is brutal and just mean, but it ends up being an important part of the story.ĭiving deeper into the mystery surrounding Fiona, the storyline jumps to 1986 and slowly brings light to the summer her mother Lillian had in Tuscany. Her brother Conor in my opinion is horrible! Not just with Fiona and the events surrounding her arrival in Italy, but with his sister Solane. Solane struggles with the death of her father, reflecting on her life and actions that led her to where she is. It also introduces Solane the sister Fiona never knew about. It follows Fiona Bell in 2017 as she travels to Italy when her biological father she never knew passes away and lists her in his will. These Tangled Vines is a dance between two timelines and three characters. With each page, the questions I had about Fiona, her father, her mother, and her unknown family grew. That might not be something that sounds enjoyable but it is one of the best feelings when you’re diving into a good mystery. → Read All About our Adventures in Thailand!įrom the start of the book, I had a small pit of uneasiness in my stomach. Also, we are hoping to visit Italy this spring/summer and now Tuscany is without a doubt on our itinerary. While I love Thailand (one of my favorite countries) it was fun to travel to Italy through the pages of These Tangled Vines. I’m eating Pad Thai instead of spaghetti, and drinking an ice-cold beer over sipping wine. I’m currently in Phuket Thailand which is (quite literally) 0n the other side of the world from where this book takes place. Full-time adventurer and part-time book addict.
