The St. Helena Vineyard series is one of Marina Adair’s most popular works. Set in the vineyards of Napa Valley, the seven books follow different couples in a community where wine, family, and romance are never far apart. Kissing Under the Mistletoe (2012) started the series, and it grew through 2016 with each book adding new characters while revisiting familiar favorites.
The DeLuca family and their neighbors drive much of the story. Summer in Napa (2013) and Autumn in the Vineyard (2013) move through the seasons alongside the characters, while Be Mine Forever (2014) and From the Moment We Met (2014) deepen the relationships between families in the valley. Need You for Keeps (2015) and Need You for Mine (2016) round out the series.
Each book works as a standalone romance, but the shared setting and recurring characters reward reading them in order. Readers who enjoy small-town romance with a strong sense of place will find the Napa Valley backdrop gives this series a distinct personality.
