The Hawthorne Vines series is Meredith Wild’s most recent work, with Bitter Truth published in 2024 and Sweet Escape following in 2025. The series is set in wine country and combines romance with family drama and the pressures of running a vineyard business.
Wild uses the vineyard setting to create a more atmospheric backdrop than her previous urban-set romances. The series follows connected characters dealing with family secrets, business rivalries, and the complications of falling in love when there is a lot at stake.
