The Stanbury Estate - Paperback

by Kimberly Thomas (Author)

Two estranged sisters. One crumbling vineyard. And a legacy that just might heal them both.

Charlotte Stanbury built a life of success, independence, and distance-from her past, her family, and the small town she once called home. But when her father dies, she's pulled back to the vineyard estate she ran from years ago-dragging along the secret that she's battling breast cancer. Her plan is simple: settle the estate, sell the land, and leave. Fast.

Mila Stanbury never left. She raised her daughter Ava here, poured everything into the vineyard, and cared for their aging father alone. Now, the home she's sacrificed so much for is on the brink of foreclosure, and the last person she wants to share it with is the sister who abandoned them.

Forced to face each other-and the painful secrets their father left behind-Charlotte and Mila are torn between preserving the past and letting it go. As Charlotte quietly wages a war with her illness, Mila grapples with betrayal, resentment, and the terrifying prospect of starting over. But in the quiet rows of the vineyard and the echoes of their shared history, the sisters begin to rediscover something neither expected: a path forward.

Set against the lush backdrop of a Tuscany-style vineyard on the American coast, this sweeping story of sisterhood, secrets, and second chances will tug at your heart and stay with you long after the final page.
