Sunlight on My Shoulders

Tuscan Romance Book 2
"In Tuscany, we believe the sun shines not just to grow grapes, but also to heal hearts." – Nona Manetti
A year after her husband's death, Sharon Carpenter travels to Greve, hoping to ease the ache of grief at the Chianti vineyard Michael loved. Wrapped in the warmth of the Manetti family, who welcome her as one of their own, she begins to reconnect with the world—and with herself.
The last person she expects to find sitting across from her at Nona Manetti’s dinner table is Drew Farnon, her late husband’s best friend, who never hid his disdain for her modest beginnings. His presence at the vineyard threatens the fragile peace she's found, and with old tensions resurfacing, Sharon is once again questioning how she'll face a future without Michael.
But as the harvest season unfolds and the Tuscan sunshine works its quiet magic, Sharon is drawn into an unexpected and complicated connection with Drew, who is fighting battles of his own.
What starts as an escape from the past becomes a rediscovery of joy, purpose, and the strength to begin again.
If you enjoy emotionally rich women’s fiction like One Italian Summer by Rebecca Serle or The Summer Villa by Melissa Hill, you’ll love Sunlight on My Shoulders. This heartfelt story of grief, healing, and unexpected love unfolds in the sun-drenched vineyards of Chianti. With warmth and emotional honesty, Becky Doughty delivers a moving tale of hope and the quiet courage it takes to begin again.
