Losing the Ice

2/2/2015

1 Comment

 
The U.S. Figure Skating Champs are done. Super Bowl is done. And I'm about ready for winter to be done. So when I woke up this morning to six inches of snow in my driveway, I was not excited. But a happy surprise awaited in my e-mail inbox: I'd won the luck lottery and gotten an advanced review edition of Losing the Ice. With Jennifer Comeaux's newest novella as inspiration, that driveway was shoveled in no time and I settled into my comfiest chair to read. To my delight, I found Losing the Ice like a cup of hot cocoa: a sweet and heartwarming story that left me both content and looking forward to the next installment. In short, it makes me feel like I did after watching this fluff bit from #NC2015:
The only problem is that I seem to be the first to have finished:

I need this book to be out already so I have some people to fangirl with! Official release day is February 23 but the cover is out today. (See below.) Hop on over to Jennifer Comeaux's site to get all the details, including a link to pre-order the novella for only $0.99 and a raffle entry for an Ice Series prize pack. And when you've read it, too, please comment below because we need to talk. Because this is such an awesome new twist on pair love stories AND that bit with Josh's sister was the most fantastic plotting genius ever AND I want Mrs. Cassar for my neighbor AND I can't wait to hear what everyone else thinks. :-)

    Reflections on Writing

    Picture
    I love few things better than a bottomless to-read list of books and firmly believe the world has room for all the stories we want to share. This blog is intended to provide resources and spark discussion about improving writing. Opinions are my own and not intended to discredit anyone else's work, only to open conversation. Thanks for reading!
