Born on the Caribbean island of Martinique, Josephine had exotic Creole appeal that would ultimately propel her to reign over an empire as wife of the most powerful man in the world - Napoleon I. But her heart belonged to another man - the mysterious, compelling stranger who had won her as a girl in Martinique.
I have been a fan of Carolly Erickson for a while. I enjoyed her biographies because they read like a good novel. So now that she's writing real novels, it's even better! The Secret Life of Josephine was a really enjoyable read. I took it with me everywhere and read every second I got it was so good.
