12 Days of Yule: Day Four

 

Welcome to Day Four of the 12 Days of Yule! Today's book is a sequel to This Winter Heart. As I mentioned yesterday, This Winter Heart is traditionally published, so I can't make it free. But this book tells the story of how Ophelia and Dario fared in their first year back together.

So, okay. One of the criticisms I received about This Winter Heart was that there wasn't enough Christmas in it. Which is fair. Ophelia completely misses Christmas for reasons that are too spoilery to mention here. In retrospect, I felt bad about that. And so did Dario.

So when I decided to follow up with the Leonides' family to see how they were faring the following Christmas, I decided to go all-in on Christmas--the family even attends Mass!  And there are cookies!  And another airship! And more groveling on the part of my poor hero! Because we romance readers/writers are a sadistic bunch. We like to see/make our characters suffer. 

I also wanted to set things up for the rest of the series--four interconnecting books about Ophelia's siblings, along with some other, related content; at least one more Christmas book; and probably more cookies. You can read more about that here:

Also, as I mentioned yesterday, if you are inclined to purchase This Winter Heart, (which, by the way, is absolutely my favorite title for a book ever!) you might want to consider purchasing the anthology, A Clockwork Christmas. 

For the same low price, you get FOUR sweet steampunk stories (and no, I don't mean sweet as in "sweet romance" although the heat levels do vary from story to story). It's also available as an audiobook, which is nice--even though the narrator pronounces my last name wrong. Grrr).
