Between Stone and Vine

By Nicolette James

A Seabrook Novel

Miranda did not come to Italy looking for love.
She came looking for light.

After years of running her beloved shop, Golden Hearth & Co., Miranda makes a quiet but radical decision: to follow her long-held passion for photography. Encouraged by her closest friend, Sydney, she leaves her coastal town of Seabrook and spends months traveling-across back roads, open plains, and protected Tribal lands-learning how to slow down, how to see, and how to listen to herself again.

By the time she arrives in Italy, she is no longer searching. She is ready.

In Venice, among stone streets and shifting light, she meets Salvatore Romano-a man who understands time not as something to conquer, but something to respect. Their connection unfolds carefully, shaped by shared meals, long walks, and moments that do not ask to be rushed.

But love, even when it arrives gently, brings complexity. Family loyalty, old grief, and quiet resistance test what Miranda is building. When the promise of marriage threatens the peace she's found, she must decide whether belonging requires compromise-or courage.

Set against the beauty of Venice and the grounding stillness of an Italian vineyard, Between Stone and Vine is a novel about women who step beyond the lives they were expected to live and into ones that feel true; about love that waits; and about the strength it takes to build a life rooted in intention.
