Interesting read
Jassie is a character that lacks warmth, friendliness or compassion. She is the person you can't stand. So negative. Sees the worse in men. Throughout the book how could Connor even like her. Throughout the book my opinion stayed the same. The other people were great. I can't say anything negative about the book because not liking someone is a emotion.
The author wrote a sentence that was just lovely.
I can close my eyes and see the curlicues.
Two mugs of hot chocolate sat on the table’s protective paper, sending up curlicues of steam.

Sweet romance set against the backdrop of a snow skiing accident that brings the hero and heroine together. This was my first read by this author and I would read her work again.

Sweet story
It took me several pages to get into the story, but once I did, I found it enjoyable. The heroine is not quite as likable as most. Maybe if there was a little less telling about her background her reactions might have felt more reasonable and her less irritating at times. There were a handful of typos, including missing quotation marks in several places, and one section repeated twice (which oddly occurs in a good portion of ebooks). The ending came a little fast for me, but the overall story and themes were enough to have me willing to read this author again.
