Ruth, thanks so much for inviting me back to visit!
I’m thrilled to be sharing my new release, One Week
to Win Her Boss, book 2 in the Snowflake Valley series, as well as special news
about book 1, Snowbound with Mr. Wrong.
One Week to
Win Her Boss
a Snowflake
Valley novel
The back
cover copy:
Single
mom Amber Barnett loves family, kids, Christmas…and unfortunately, her boss,
confirmed bachelor Michael DeFranco. It's a crush she really needs
to get over. Except, when she’s temporarily forced from her apartment, her only
option is to stay at Michael’s private ski lodge, where she's the housekeeper.
No problem. Her handsome boss rarely visits Snowflake Valley unexpectedly, plus
he’s spending the holidays with his family. Or so she thinks…
A
stormy Christmas Eve reunion leaves Michael seeking the solitude of his lodge,
where he finds Amber in residence—and in trouble. Attempting to save her from
her matchmaking family, he announces they’re a couple. His good deed backfires
when they’re instantly included in each and every holiday event in town. So
much for solitude.
Only
the more time he spends with the beautiful, cheery brunette, the more he yearns
to make things real between them. But he and Amber want different things, and
Michael could never be the family man she's looking for.

Excerpt:
This excerpt comes very close to the beginning of
the story, when Michael learns Amber has moved into his lodge – and doesn’t
seem to be planning to leave any time soon!

Amber couldn’t stay at the lodge with Michael here. But where else
could she go?
Run home to her family? No way. She refused to let them know she
wasn’t the independent, in-control single mom she wanted them to see.
She trusted all her friends but couldn’t ask for their help. Even
if not a single one of them talked, everyone in Snowflake Valley would
eventually know what had happened. One person would see something, another
would overhear something else, and before she knew it, she would have no
secrets from anyone, including Michael.
He took his seat again and looked at her. “Amber, what are you
hiding from your family?”
She clamped her coffee mug in a death grip. “Who said I was hiding
anything from them?” she asked cautiously.
“You did. You said not to tell your mom and sisters about the
soup.”
“Oh. That.” She forced a laugh. “They would disown me for not
making it from scratch. They’re all very into homemade food, homemade
clothes…homemade everything. Callie, my oldest sister—you met her, she’s
the one who’s a teacher. Anyway, she even has a recipe to make her own
Christmas ornaments out of paste and flour.”
He eyed the tree in the corner of the room. Needing some Christmas
cheer, she had turned the lights on when she’d come downstairs with Penny.
“Don’t worry,” she said, “I decorated it myself, and I promise you
there’s not a handmade ornament in the bunch.”
“Hey, I already told you, I couldn’t care less. It’s your tree,
not mine. If it were up to me, there wouldn’t be one in the house.”
“Scrooge,” she teased. Instant conversation stopper. No return
smile from him, as she had hoped. No comment, either. Just a silent shrug.
She needed to keep him away from the topic of secrets…
From reviews for
One Week to Win Her Boss:
“Personally, I wish the Barnett family would adopt me and invite
me to their midst, and to Snowflake Valley, for every holiday of the year. My
bet is you will feel the same.” – Amazon Customer
“…their story comes alive with believable, it could happen
moments. That is what separates stories for me, whether I can really believe
the reactions of the people involved… and One Week to Win Her Boss gives us a
family, a town full of believable nice and not so nice people. This is a story
that will go on my yearly re-read list – and I’d highly recommend it for any
Romance reader.” – Keeper Bookshelf.
“Barbara White Daille writes about a magical setting. Snowflake Valley is beautiful and I loved the festive atmosphere of the place. She makes it come to life in a great vivid way. The holiday charm of the story is absolutely amazing. This perfect background for romance put a big smile on my face. One Week to Win Her Boss is captivating, sweet and endearing. It's a heartwarming entertaining story.” – Suze Lavender

was like opening a gift on Christmas day. You want to savor and cherish it
because it is special and you do not want to spoil the memory. I want to read
other books in this series and other books by Barbara White Daille.” - Lori,
