This skiing adventure with
evocative settings in
Switzerland and the Scottish
Highlands will captivate you
with its two strands as it
brings together two loves,
one for a fun-loving English
girl, the other for a
piquant Scottish girl.
The last thing Lars Svensson
wanted was a ‘holiday
romance’ at a skiing chalet
in Verbier, Switzerland.
After all, he was just an
American ex-pat moving
around the United Kingdom,
working as a site engineer
and struggling in a
relationship with his
English girlfriend. Feeling
the need to get away and
encouraged by his workmates,
Lars sets off across the
English Channel hell-bent on
making up for lost time on
the slopes. That was to be
expected. What was not
expected was his falling for
fellow chalet guest. Annabel
is the kind of girl you’d
bring to a dinner party
after bagging her on safaris
in Africa. Author Kurt
Larson uses a
stream-of-consciousness
technique to take you
through the mind of a man
torn between his love of
women and his taste for
skiing. Or maybe it’s the
other way around. You’ll
find his characters enjoying
life on the pistes, in the
powder, on the road, in the
bedroom—and dealing with
tragedy in true British
style as observed through
the eyes of an American.
