New Character Art👌
I illustrated a kissing scene for a hockey romance novel!🥰
I love to really feel the intimate moments between the characters; that’s how I determine their facial expressions, gestures, poses, and all the little details. I truly believe I have the best job in the world. ❤️ by @juliazuban

Until the Snow Melts @kandisteiner @arndellbooks @keeperton
We’re heading to Pinecrest Mountain, and I already know I’m going to love this crew! Fake dating, grumpy x sunshine, found family, and a mountain man who falls first. So excited to share this beautiful cover and introduce you to Maisey and Duke’s story! ❄️
A fake relationship. A very real expiration date.

Maisey Hines has never met a mountain she didn’t want to ski or an adventure she didn’t want to chase. As a seasonal ski instructor at Pinecrest Mountain, she’s got everything she needs: fresh powder, a rowdy group of friends who feel more like family, and an entire winter of possibilities. The last thing she wants is to get tied down when she’s already planning to leave as soon as the snow melts.

Duke Blanch prefers his mountains quiet, his routines predictable, and his heart firmly off-limits. But when one little white lie turns the stoic snowcat operator and his sunshine-loving coworker into the resort’s newest couple, he agrees to something far more dangerous than navigating a mountain in a blizzard: pretending to be in love.

The rules are simple. Fake the relationship, convince everyone they’re crazy about each other, and go their separate ways when ski season ends.

But between working together, sharing a roof, and spending their nights tangled up in the cozy chaos of their found family, they’re breaking every rule they made to keep things casual — including the ones meant to protect their hearts.

They both knew this was temporary. No commitments, no expectations, and absolutely no reason to get attached. But as the days grow longer and the snow begins to melt, Maisey and Duke are both facing a terrifying possibility: what if the only thing they’ve been faking is not falling in love?

Until the Snow Melts is a cozy, steamy winter romance filled with snow-covered mountains, crackling fireplaces, fake dating, roommates, workplace shenanigans, found family, and a hero who falls first (and hard). Each book in the Pinecrest Mountain series is a complete standalone with its own happily ever after, but you’ll get to fall in love with the whole mountain crew along the way. by @juliazuban
