License to Thrill: Lily Bollinger by Rebecca Rosenberg

The Nazis wanted her champagne. The critics wanted her erased. Lily Bollinger refused to surrender.

1940: In occupied France, the Bollinger cellars are a battlefield. Newly widowed Lily must host the Nazi Weinführer while Resistance fighters hide in the chalk tunnels directly beneath her feet. To protect her legacy, Lily becomes a master of deception—outwitting the Reich by day and defying them by night, bound by a dangerous secret and a mysterious lover known as the Commodore.

1970: Lily reigns as the undisputed "Dame of Champagne," but the new decade brings new enemies. From triumphant tours of America to high-stakes court battles in London, she has conquered the world—yet her own house is under siege. As feuding nephews tear at the empire from within and a venomous critic dismisses her as a relic, Lily makes her move. In her most audacious gamble, Lily forges an unbreakable bond between Bollinger and the world’s most sophisticated spy: James Bond.

As her seventy-fifth birthday looms, Lily executes one final maneuver to secure her empire. But when her rarest vintage is uncorked, a long-buried truth resurfaces—proving her greatest achievement wasn’t just the wine she saved, but the secrets she kept.

Two eras. One legacy. A woman who proves the finest vintages are impossible to crush.
