What secret has Kelly Douglas, one of prime time's most popular newscasters, kept locked inside for so many years? In Tangled Vines, Janet Dailey's riveting new novel, the lush vineyards of Napa Valley, California, and the city lights of Manhattan are the backdrops for the mesmerizing story of television news personality Kelly Douglas and vintner Sam Rutledge, and the passions and secrets that surround their lives and the Napa wine country. Kelly Douglas, the host of a new prime-time magazine show, is on the brink of achieving her lifelong dream of becoming a nightly news anchor. Hers is a modern-day Cinderella story: long ago she pulled herself out of a desperately unhappy childhood in rural Napa Valley, escaped from her abusive, alcoholic father, and transformed herself from "four-eyed and fat" Lizzie Dougherty into the chic and successful Kelly Douglas. Her lustrous auburn hair, impeccable taste and wardrobe, dedication to hard work, and uncanny talent for being in the right place at the right time have propelled her to journalistic stardom - and she has never once looked back. By chance, Kelly returns to Napa Valley to do a feature story. There she becomes entangled in the lives of Katherine Rutledge, the matriarch of the famous Rutledge Estate Winery, and her grandson, the ruggedly handsome vintner Sam Rutledge, who epitomizes the family motto: If you're a Rutledge, wine, not blood, runs through your veins. But the Rutledge motto also applies to Katherine's estranged son, Gil, who owns a competing winery in the valley. The bonds of blood and wine are put to the ultimate test, and thebitter rivalry between Katherine and Gil is further fueled by the desire of them both to form a joint venture with the illustrious Bordeaux winery of Baron Fougere in France - with both mother and son vowing to stop at nothing to attain their goal. *** Quantity Available: 1.
