"Briskly-paced romantic thriller with wine, love, and second chances." -Publishers Weekly/Booklife"....[T]he slow-burn romance between Dion and Theo carries the story; the pair share a vibrant chemistry. Every character is unique and well developed-Dion is easy to relate to, and her personal evolution unfolds in a way that feels natural and well earned." -Kirkus ReviewsThe Angels' Share explores how one leap of faith can transform one's entire world. When thirty nine-year-old Dion (short for Dionysia) leaves a meaningless government job and non-existent love life in Canada to help her American father and grandmother avoid losing the family winery in Crete to a dangerous Russian oligarch, she cannot imagine becoming a criminal. Soon though manipulations by the Russian offer no way out. Struggling to find footing on solid ground, Dion turns to her feisty ninety-four-year-old ex-resistance fighter grandmother. This and unexpected relationships with a young vagabond artist called Theo and the runaway wife of a Saudi businessman challenge her sexuality and her morality until finally, propelled into lawlessness, she and her grandmother decide to pull off a heist of the Russian's two million-dollar bottle of cognac. This is a novel about the nuclear power of love in sex, in climate-conscious winemaking, and in the trust Dion needs to save both her family's winery and herself.
