Episode 56 - This Summer Will Be Different and Vinho Verde
On the first day of vacationing on Prince Edward Island Lucy meets local man Felix and enjoys an unforgettable night with him. When Lucy’s best friend Bridget joins her, B (Lucy) and Wolf (Felix) discover he is Bridget’s younger brother. And definitely not to be pursued. Carley Fortune’s novel published in May 2024 then jumps to the present day. Lucy travels from Toronto to PEI annually and maintains some distance from Felix, even though there is still a strong attraction. Bridget shows up a week before her wedding concerned about leaving Lucy on her own in life because her future husband wants to move to Australia for a job. This is a sweet, happily ever after story, an easy read. The favored wine for the friends is a Vinho Verde from Portugal, which they enjoy with oysters. It is a “green” wine, ready to drink six months after harvesting. It is effervescent, with a lower alcohol count.

Episode 55 - First Lie Wins and Tempranillo Grapes
This highly-engaging and cleverly-written novel by Ashley Elston follows the complicated life of Lucca Marino aka Evie Porter as she carries out various sketchy projects for a Mr. Smith and his not-so-lawful organization. The storyline takes us through the unsavory projects which Evie was contracted to complete. Evie happens to fall for Ryan, the object of one of her investigations, until doppelganger Lucca Marino is sent to alert Ryan of Evie’s scrutiny of his company. IT tech Devon assists Evie in uncovering the criminal acts of Mr. Smith. We learn all about the Tempranillo grape and the various nicknames or alternative names for the grape. We enjoyed a 2013 Muga Rioja Reserva and discussed the Ah-so two-pronged wine opener, used to open older or fragile corks.
