Author Molly Harper on Making the Best of Snow Days

Molly Harper, author of the NICE GIRLS series, as well as the upcoming HOW TO FLIRT WITH A NAKED WEREWOLF has written the following blog post about how she came up with the story for her two upcoming werewolf books.

That one sparked the ideas that became books. So take heart, if you’re stranded by the storm like she was. Her story might just inspire you to do something productive while hibernating.

Summary

The best holiday traditions are meant to be broken.

It’s only December 1, and Vanessa Clayton has been dreading Christmas since she spotted tinseled trees at her local mall in September. Thankfully, she and her husband, JT, can’t afford to drag their twin boys across the country to New England for the annual celebration at her stuffy sister-in-law Patience’s home. Not that Vanessa has prepared a proper Christmas for her family in years, and she has less time than ever since she agreed to consult on the script of a local play. Her older sister, Thea, is no help — she’d rather make art and flirt with surfers than babysit her nine-year-old nephews. Then Patience drops a holiday stress bomb: Her family will come to California instead.

In between “baking” cinnamon rolls for the school potluck and overbearing Patience testing her patience, Vanessa can’t stop thinking about the difficult but charming playwright at work. Meanwhile, Patience’s teenage daughter, Libby, obsesses over a college boy she has met by the pool, and Thea searches desperately for the meaning of Christmas — for her latest installation, of course. As their holiday plans go comically awry, these four women discover the true spirit of the season is hidden in every festive surprise.
