When Olivia Glass, 34, concocts an ad for a cheap wine that propels her advertising company to the top, she is ashamed by her own work—yet offered the promotion she’s dreamed of. Olivia, at a crossroads, realizes this is not the life she signed up for. Worse, when Olivia discovers her long-time boyfriend, about to propose, has been cheating on her, she realizes it’s time for a major life change.

Olivia has always dreamed of moving to Tuscany, living a simple life, and starting her own vineyard.

When her long-time friend messages her about a Tuscan cottage available, Olivia can’t help wonder: is it fate?

Hilarious, packed with travel, food, wine, twists and turns, romance and her newfound animal friend—and centering around a baffling small-town murder that Olivia must solve—AGED FOR DEATH is an un-putdownable cozy that will keep you laughing late into the night.

    A fun read with lots of twists and turns in the plot. Multiple times, the circumstances look bleak and then an unexpected event happens to get everything back on track. The culprit is a surprise till the very end and well worth waiting for. Enjoy!

    When it's time to start life fresh after her breakup and quitting her job, Olivia Glass is invited to spend the summer in Tuscany. It's a difficult decision but she goes for it. Her dream is to open a boutique winery and stay away from the rat race of advertising. When she gets a job as an apprentice sommelier at one the best boutique wineries in Tuscany, she's in heaven. Then the horrible chief sommelier who seems to hate is found dead in wine storage after screaming at her in public and causing he to lose her cool, she's at the top of the suspect list. With no allies except the owner of the vineyard, she sets out to find her own answers about the killer. It's rough going, but she persists. She has to, since her former employer is refusing to pay her. Great read.

    It’s a fun story , but hard to believe. The main character, Olivia, breaks up with her boyfriend, quits her high-paying but stressful job, and goes to Italy to cool off.

    She’s staying with a friend who has rented a villa for the summer. While there, she decides she’d like to have her own winery. She has no experience with making wine, just drinking it and marketing it (she was a highly paid advertising agent).

    Soon she is involved with an established winery as an assistant sommelier. There’s a murder, an attractive employer, and ….

    At any rate, it’s a good cozy mystery and entertaining if you can suspend reality checks.

    First book in a series and a nice way to start. A successful ad campaign for a lousy wine Olivia quits her job and goes to Italy to spend the summer with a friend. Since she quit she discovers she has forfeited her bonus and back pay. Her dream is to have a small winery. Her first attempt at wine-making is a spectacular flop. With no income and a desire to learn more about wines she takes a job at a local winery and the story unfolds. Add in a wayward goat for fun and you have a sometimes funny but very engaging story.

    The story contains too much details about earlier events, of wine making etc covering almost half book, after which main story starts. A rather poorly written novel.
