Queen of All She Reads

If you like books set in foreign countries with colorful characters
and like to expand your knowledge of other cultures,
this is a series you must read!
The story’s pace is fairly even and the authors provide the reader
with the history of the small vineyards located within the city of Paris itself along the way.
