The Perfume Collector – Kathleen Tessaro

After receiving an unexpected inheritance from a complete stranger, newlywed socialite Grace Monroe must uncover the identity of her mysterious benefactor. Weaving through the decades from 1920s New York to 1950s Monte Carlo, Paris and London, the story Grace uncovers is that of an extraordinary woman who inspired one of Paris’ greates perfumes.

Mad Women – Jane Maas

Calling all Mad Men fans! How authentic is Peggy Olson? Very real judging from this fun memoir by Jane Maas. Her humorous yet authoritative account of her life in advertising during the ’60s is a welcome look behind the curtain into a traditionally male world.

A Venetian Affair – Andrea DiRobilant

A real-life forbidden 18th century love affair is brought back to life through old letters uncovered in the author’s family home in Venice. Rich historical imagery, familiar emotion and Casanova himself!
