La Libération - Leslie Juvin-Acker - Bog

It is 1866 and French commercial relations with Tahiti are heating up. Father, a retired British sailor, who built a sugar and coffee bean empire with an entrancing Tahitian, has two sons and eight daughters. He knows that only one of his daughters can cement the expansion of the family empire throughout Europe with the only currency that matters in France: family.

Join Aata on her thrilling journey of self-discovery full of passion, exploration, and romance. Will Aata make it to her wedding day? Or will other desires get in the way? Step aboard La Libération to unravel the truth.
