Tragom parfema

Tragom parfema

Cristina Caboni

Even as a child, Elena was eager for tenderness and love. Growing up with the knowledge that she was too much of a burden even for her own mother convinced her that she can only count on herself in life.

For all family troubles, the young woman has always blamed the obsessive search for the perfect perfume, on which the women in her family spent decades and decades patiently passing down the skill of making perfume from generation to generation, without any of them actually finding the scent she was looking for. This is precisely why this world is so repulsive to Elena. When the love of her life experiences a complete fiasco, Elena realizes that the changes in her life have become a matter of survival for her. At her friend's persuasion, she moves to Paris and starts doing exactly what she has been running away from all her life - making perfume. Maybe the scents only brought pain and suffering to her ancestors, but they didn't have a completely unusual Cail on their side...

Penelope Ward, Vi Keeland

Typical of Ward and Keeland: emotional, entertaining, with an unavoidable single father, smoldering romances, humor, steamy scenes, and a happy ending. A book about opposites complementing each other and the power of love to heal wounds.
