About this ebook

Cowritten by #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Murphy and USA Today bestselling author Sierra Simone—a steamy second chance Christmas in July rom-com. 

After Angel and Luca connected on the set of Duke the Halls and had a whirlwind romance in the literal snow globe of Christmas Notch, Vermont, Luca found himself falling in love. Hard. He’d never been one to believe in fate or true love, but one thing was certain: Angel was his person. He knew it as well as he knew the history of American figure skating. But when Angel left for an art school semester abroad without a word, Luca’s already brittle heart was broken. No one ghosted Luca. Unless he was in a haunted house.

But with the spring semester long over, Angel is back home in Los Angeles for the summer, and unfortunately for Luca, this big town is turning out to be smaller than either of them ever expected.

Ratings and reviews

I thought this novella was simply delightful! Angel and Luca's story was heart meltingly fun and cute but offered more than enough drama to tug firmly at your heartstrings, while being spicy enough to have you squirming. These two really had me wanting to hug them one moment and give them a solid shaking the next. I loved every single second of it! This is my freely posted, frank review.

Did you read A Merry Little Cute Meet? Remember Angel and Luca? Well, Snow Place Like LA is their story after leaving Vermont. These two authors have given us the perfect story for Angel and Luca. A perfect mix of couples angst, cuteness, hot AF chemistry, and a perfect HEA!!
