Manu Canales de la Vega

A young New Yorker finds herself caught between her longing to honor her late mother's love for Christmas and her grandfather's deep-seated aversion to embrace the holiday spirit when she returns to her family's lush Costa Rican estate after many years away.

When Claire, a sophisticated wine expert, travels to Costa Rica, her carefully ordered world collides with Alex, a passionate coffee producer deeply rooted in his family’s land. As wine and coffee, past and present, begin to intertwine, an unexpected connection challenges what they thought they knew about love, memory, and the paths that bring people together.
