Hey y’all! My Name is Kristen McKanagh and I’m so excited to be here today to share a little bit about my new sweet holiday romance SNOWBALL UNWRAPPED with Fresh Fiction’s fun Title Challenge. Featuring the ever-mischievous matchmaking cat Snowball, she really has her work cut out for her with a twin swap, a film crew arriving to do several holiday themed live shows, and another cat who is not so nice.   Let’s go….   S is for Snowball. The mischievous cat who is a holiday matchmaker for all her favorite humans. N is for No Way. A twin swap is happening y’all. O is for “Oh Christmas Tree.” Deck the halls with all the best holiday traditions in this cozy, sweet romantic escape. W is for Weber Haus. The Victorian mountain inn and shops where Snowball lives. B is for Ben. Co-host of Home & Hearth has no idea that the woman he thinks is his cohost is actually her twin sister. He just knows there are sparks now, when there never were before. A is for Angel. Another white kitty is on the scene, but if anything Angel is the devil in disguise. L is for LIVE…

But Mercy and Faith’s paths are entwined in such a way that Mercy’s decisions impact Faith’s life in very big ways. But Faith’s love for Mercy is so great, that she will do anything she can to help her sister.   Sisters are one of my favorite character dynamics to write.
