You feel the sweat trickling down your neck from the Australian summer, even as another type of heat builds between the hero and heroine. - Susan York, Amazon Vine Voice Reviewer Tracy Cooper-Posey giving us all a personal taste of her life and upbringing. Very nice start to an exceptional book. I loved the Aussie characters and the family dynamics which created the catalyst for an open and honest discussion for the second-chance couple of main characters. I enjoyed how the misunderstanding and wrongs of the past were revealed and the angst-free, direct approach of the characters once the truth was revealed. I feel like I am there; the heat of Australia in December, and the emotions running through all. Always a joy to read anything Cooper-Posey writes. I may or may not admit I teared up a bit at the end, love some happy endings!! The author makes you feel like you are there experiencing an Australian Christmas. A sweet short story with a lot packed in. After a lovely and very personal introduction, this very talented author shares with her readers a holiday gift from the heart.
Evocative of both time and place, beautifully written, and deeply genuine, this short read is . simply magical. ___ Tracy Cooper-Posey is a 2024 Aurealis Award finalist for best SF Novella and the author of over 200 published titles that blend romance, suspense, science fiction, fantasy, and historical intrigue. She writes across multiple pen names-including Cameron Cooper (space opera) and Taylen Carver (fantasy, also an Aurealis finalist)-and has collected a long list of accolades, including the Emma Darcy Award, the SFR Galaxy Award, and fourth place in Hugh Howey's SPSFC#2. An indie juggernaut and genre chameleon, Tracy has been publishing since 1999 and running her own one-woman fiction empire since 2011.
Her stories range from sweeping sagas to bite-sized thrillers, and she's as comfortable writing tangled political intrigue as she is crafting a killer space opera saga. She's a strategist at heart-an INTJ with a sword-sharp mind and a whiteboard full of fictional worlds. A former magazine editor and romance writing instructor, she now writes full-time in Edmonton, Canada, where she lives with her husband and creative partner, Mark Posey.
She runs on Irish Breakfast tea, dark chocolate, and a fierce love of genre fiction-from Frank Herbert and Mary Stewart to Murderbot, MacLean, and McCaffery. The treadmill continues to go unnoticed.
