Perfect for you if...

  • You love multigenerational love stories that span decades and show how couples evolve beyond the honeymoon phase.
  • You're drawn to settings like vineyards and wine country, where place becomes as much a character as the people.
  • You appreciate stories about chasing unconventional dreams and the real cost of building something meaningful from scratch.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced plots with constant external conflict rather than intimate character reflection and emotional depth.
  • You want primarily uplifting stories; this book's later chapters venture into genuine darkness and loss.
  • You're looking for a light, feel-good read; this requires patience with slower pacing and introspection.

About this book

Before We Say Goodbye is a prequel to the Red Mountain Chronicles set in Washington State's Red Mountain wine country. The novel follows Otis as he reflects on his life and writes down the love story he shared with Rebecca. Their bond began at Woodstock in 1969, when two young people with big dreams found possibility in each other. Rebecca's spirit causes Otis to reconsider his plans to attend Berkeley and become a journalist like his father. When he sees the vineyards of Sonoma, where Rebecca is from, he becomes drawn to the idea of a life in wine. The couple marries impulsively and sets out to pursue their dreams together. Over the decades, Otis and Rebecca work their way through the wine world, moving from Sonoma to the Red Mountain community. They face significant challenges along the way, and eventually encounter darkness that tests their ability to find light again.
