Ice Cream In The Snow Diana Castilleja Anastasia Rabiyah 9781453847510 Books
A single mom and raising her twelve-year-old son alone, Jessie has no time or inclination for dating or romance. Catching her husband, Arthur, in their bed with another woman all those long years ago and then discovering other soul-shattering secrets left her with a steely resolve and a prickly demeanor. Most importantly, though, is her desire to raise her son properly by nurturing his achievements and helping him realize his full potential. Jessie learns that Arthur has died and that he has bequeathed his profitable ice cream parlor to her and, their son, Jacob.Arthur owes Brick Donnelly money - a lot of money. Brick is not at all happy having to fly from Boston to Somerset, New Mexico to confront the deadbeat debtor. When Brick encounters the fiery redhead, Jessie, instead of Arthur, it is the last straw. The flight has left him cranky and out-of-sorts yet somehow he instinctively realizes that Jessie is a woman worth fighting for.
Both Jessie and Brick are stubborn individuals but they decide to work together to find out what happened to the missing money. Jessie feels that the sooner Brick gets what he came for the better. Brick sees how determined Jessie is to make her new business prosper, thinks her plans are sound, and decides to help rather than hinder her efforts. Meanwhile, more secrets are revealed, innocent lives are endangered, and a surprising scumbag lurks in the background.
I love the interactions between Jessie and her son. Theirs is a very strong bond that is wonderfully portrayed by this author. I also think the relationship that develops between Brick and Jacob during the course of the story is touching. The suspense builds incrementally throughout to an exciting and satisfying conclusion. This book may be enjoyed by teens and young adults as well as the more mature reader. I recommend this sweet, feel-good, romantic suspense that you will want to also share with family and friends.

Ice Cream In The Snow Diana Castilleja Anastasia Rabiyah 9781453847510 Books Reviews
Castilleja's Ice Cream in the Snow starts in desperation and zooms forward, anxiety building... only to step into a whole other story slower, reflective. It gains ground as it goes, however and events happen rather quickly.
This IS a charming story - in more ways than one. It brings a certain homey charm to the fore. The characters of Jessie and son Jacob could be `everymans' in `anywhere' USA. They seem familiar, and the affection between them is real and believable. The comforting sections of this story contrast sharply with all that is going on in Arthur's life. The changes in pace reflect the characters featured - my biggest complaint is that too much of the characters feelings and thoughts are simply told, even though in other sections, they are beautifully expressed.
There's more than a measure of originality, too. Brick, the hovering tough guy-slash- businessman is by turns intimidating, kind and even seductive. We readers have as much trouble as Jesse does deciding if he's a good guy or not. There are undeniable sparks of passion between them... but there is a whole lot of money to be accounted for, too.
Castilleja's Ice Cream in the Snow does make me hope for more works from her. It's short, full of hope, and has that element of the unpredictable do read.
