Pinecones and Pinot

Gabbys Christmas wish list: Spend precious time with her family, help out at the winery, then head overseas to chase her dreams.

What she doesnt need is a family crisis, a Christmas that threatens to go spectacularly wrong, or a gorgeous Frenchman who makes concentrating on any of the above almost impossible.

Henri St Ecru is perfectly happy with his life in New Zealand. A successful job with a major wine company keeps him busy, and being far from his family estate in France suits him just fine. Or at least, it did until hes sent to Pinecone Estate.

Suddenly, the future he thought he wanted doesnt look quite so appealing. The winery owners son has him dreaming of new possibilities and Gabrielle has him wondering whether theres more to life than work and wine.

As Christmas approaches, Gabby and Henri face a festive season full of unexpected challenges, tempting distractions and dreams that might be about to change.

Can they save Christmas at Pinecone Estate without losing sight of what they want? And will they discover that sometimes the best things in life are the ones you never planned for?
