"There are three rules here, Paloma: never fall in love, never steal another man's man, and drink only vintage champagne."

Spain, the village of Fago, 1920s. Every autumn, young women leave for seasonal work in France, crossing the border on foot along the steep slopes of the Pyrenees. Young Rosa embarks on this perilous journey with only one goal: to find work in an espadrille shoe factory in the French town of Mauléon.

This new life will be a true test for her until fate brings her to the home of amazing women—extravagant Parisians who value freedom and chic clothes. They will help her develop her talents and provide the friendship and support she so desperately needs in a man-dominated world.

This novel sparkles like champagne, immersing the reader in the atmosphere of the carefree interwar years - the era of Charlie Chaplin, Coco Chanel and unbridled jazz.
