Icing on the Lake

ICING ON THE LAKE Beach reads for snow bunnies–our wildly popular beach reads expand to winter!

Clark sends eighteen-year-old Kirsten to south Minneapolis for January to help her older sister Gretchen recover from a broken leg, complete with a rambunctious three-year-old nephew and an eighty-pound Samoyed named Bear.

The story drops her into the crossfire between two very different hockey-playing brothers—charming varsity athlete Sean and sharp-tongued bakery clerk Conor Benson. South Minneapolis rinks set the scene as Kirsten dodges wipeouts, bruised shins, and the looming pressure of finding a date for a weekend cabin getaway.

The author of Maine Squeeze is back with another funny, romantic novel, this time in the snow.
