    In the beginning there is a scent. The scent of leaves and flowers that emanated from the letter from her Italian teacher, which Valeria (not yet Kira Shell) received as a young girl, wishing her a successful future as a writer. A prediction that would turn into reality years later with the Kiss Me Like You Love Me series of novels. And also the scent of honey and bees that shape Cristina Caboni's life, as a beekeeper and début author of the 2014 bestseller that celebrates the sense of smell in its very title: The Scent of Flowers. Where does this path lead? Do scents really know who you are, as another novel by Caboni suggests? And what do kisses and love smell like?
