Too Close to the Sun ... gives us a warm, yet
suspenseful roller-coaster ride through the lives of Napa
Valley's ordinary and elite. The scenery is rich with the
ambiance of California's lush wine country. A complex story

immediately. Kept apart by their extreme differences, their
road is rocky and sometimes seems an impossible journey, but
one that comes to a wonderfully satisfying conclusion ...
This is a book that will long live in my memory, and it's a
story that begs for a sequel, even a series, and it is my
hope that Ms. Dempsey will come back with a second
installment of this Napa Valley saga. Too Close to the
Sun is an absolute must-buy for everyone, and I
highly recommend it. – Diana Risso, Romance Reviews Today
