Cheers 🥂 and many thanks to partner, Forever Publishing for this gifted beauty.
Okay, I see you Helen Fripp 😏... I'm not sure what I expected going into this novel, but wow, what a journey! Ms. Fripp took me on a most wonderful adventure into the history of champagne production. Who knew there was such rich history when it comes to bottles of "bubbly"! Nicole Clicquot was an absolute force to be reckoned with, and what an empire she built!
This novel had intrigue, suspense, romance, plenty of historical detail, and a lot of girl power. There were several, "No! Don't do it!" moments of foreshadowing, which kept me in constant suspense. Despite tremendous setbacks, Nicole, the protagonist, always persevered; I found myself rooting for her as the novel progressed. All of the characters were just so well fleshed out and the setting was absolutely gorgeous.
I truly look forward to more historical fiction by @helenfrippauthor !
