review 1: I had the honor of receiving an early copy of Scent of Triumph. I'd already heard great things about the novel and it did not disappoint. This is a sweeping, epic story of a fearless, headstrong woman you will root for from the first page to the last. Set against the backdrop of WWII, the story spans multiple continents as the heroine Danielle moves from ocean liner to Paris, and on through London and Poland and all the way to working class Los Angeles. The plot lines, the characters, and the issues are complex and deftly handled and the ending was perfect. Through it all the author weaves in information about the high-end fragrance trade. I was carried away by Danielle's story and her struggles. I predict this will be a huge hit.
review 2: What a wonderful bo
... moreok to have read over the Thanksgiving weekend! I almost can't believe that this was a free download because it was just that good. It spanned the World War II years and the settings stretched from Poland to England (London) to Los Angeles, California. The main character, Danielle, while flawed in some ways, was determined, resourceful, intelligent, fiercely loyal, and courageous. Her main love interest, Jon, had many of those same traits, which made their relationship star-crossed in some ways but also interesting. Many of the secondary characters, especially Jon's sister Abigail, were richly interesting as well. I strongly recommend this novel to anyone who loves historical fiction with a bit of romance thrown in. I truly love a book in which I feel like I know and like the characters right from the start and can't help but root for their ultimate success and happiness as the book progresses. This book delivered on those ramifications in a very big way. Check this book out. I seriously doubt that you'll be disappointed. less
