Christine Wells writes historical fiction featuring strong, fascinating women. From early childhood, she drank in her father’s tales about the real kings and queens behind popular nursery rhymes, and she has been a keen student of history ever since. She began her first novel while working as a corporate lawyer and has gone on to write about periods ranging from Georgian England to post World War II France. Christine is passionate about helping other writers learn the craft and business of writing fiction and enjoys mentoring and teaching workshops. She loves dogs, running, the beach, and fossicking for antiques, and lives with her family in Brisbane, Australia.

“As romantic as Paris itself, Christine Wells’s latest is a delight for all the senses. I learned so much about perfume as I rooted for Elodie to triumph in her chosen, male-dominated profession. Fans of Emily in Paris and The Paris Novel will love this tale of a city and family emerging from a dark period into the fragrant light.” — Kerri Maher, USA Today Bestselling author of The Paris Bookseller“A glorious showstopper of a novel! With its glittering characters, intricately woven plot and chapters full of gorgeous Dior dresses, The Paris Gown will be turning all heads this year." — Natasha Lester, New York Times bestselling author of The Disappearance of Astrid Bricard“Decadent French cuisine, a haute couture gown, and the streets of Paris create an elegant backdrop for this warm and uplifting story. In The Paris Gown, Christine Wells has lovingly crafted a tale of the resiliency of female friendship and the healing power of chasing one’s dreams.”  — Stephanie Marie Thornton, USA Today bestselling author of Her Lost Words"Wells excels at bringing midtwentieth-century Paris to life in a touching tale that emphasizes the value of true friendship." — Booklist"As impeccably crafted as a Dior gown and as seductive as the scent of Guerlain’s Shalimar, this is pure reading bliss" — Library Journal"An absolute delight! Wells is a master at bringing to life the elegance and opulence of mid-century Paris.” — Alix Rickloff, author of The Last Light Over Oslo
