I saw a link to this novel on FaceBook and being that it was a page to which I belong I thought I'd give it a try. I've never downloaded an e-pub book before but this first one proved I've waited too long to jump on the bandwagon.Erica is a Bostonian who has a falling out with her well to do boyfriend. She escapes to her great-aunt Bea's house to try to hide from both the boyfriend and his Machiavellian father, Simon Greene. As the story unfolds we learn that Erica's life has been interwoven with the Greene family since she was a child, for good but mostly for bad.
Upon reaching her aunt's house in the frozen woods of Northern New England, Erica meets a slew of town folk who take her under their wing and, of course, a man who is the polar opposite of the boyfriend she left behind. Rusty, it turns out, has a story of his own and it is equally as tragic as Erica's. Each page of this novel draws the reader in by making the characters and their motivations more clear bit by bit.
WINTER BORN captivated me from the beginning with its quick pace and lively characters. The weaving of shared secrets and intricacies throughout the prose kept me coming back each night and staying up a little later. It's a quick read and can be dowloaded to any e-reader for only $2.99 on Amazon. I would recommend you give it a try!
