Laura Bradbury returns to the beginnings of her Grape series in this memoir. When an unexpected change of plans sends her to Burgundy on a year-long exchange, she arrives with only basic French and no clear sense of what awaits her beyond North America. Eager to please, she learns to taste wine properly and to enjoy snails, though her attraction to the local young men soon puts her at odds with the household's strict rules, especially a ban on dating. Days in Dijon, pastries at dawn and walks through the vineyards bring delight, but they also leave her with a dilemma: how to keep her hosts content while following her own heart?
