From This Day Forward: Multicultural Romance - Plot & Excerpts
He gazed beyond the thick, curved balustrades out at the land. Having run the vineyard and onsite winery for almost twenty-five years, he remembered the day when his father trained him to takeover business operations. It seemed like just yesterday, but the years had flown by. Alonzo was now forty-nine years old, and the old man had passed away many years ago. Honoring his father’s wishes, he had accompanied his body back to Italy and buried him next to his mother. Alonzo was barely being a teenager when his daddy left their small farm for America. Vincent Thornton had traveled as a passenger on a large cargo ship from Galonias Harbour, a small fishing village on the western coast of Tuscany near the Tyrrhenian Sea. The fever had taken his mother’s life a few years earlier, so Alonzo moved to his Aunt Fiona’s in town near the harbor to wait for his father to send for him. After arriving in America, Vincent Thornton had taken on any kind of work he could find so he could save enough money to bring his son to America.
