Praise for "How I Came to Sparkle Again"
"This warmhearted and funny novel transports the reader to the small ski town of Sparkle, Colorado, where one snowy winter works its magic on several residents. Quick with the quips and repartee, the dialogue is a pleasure to read, as McLaren shows her readers how even the brokenhearted can get their sparkle back." --"Seattle Times"
"McLaren's intimate portrait of a seasonal town and its colorful characters makes for an entertaining ride." --"Publishers Weekly""
"""How I Came to Sparkle Again" is a gem of a novel. I loved the fresh setting and quirky, endearing cast of characters. This novel is like a perfect run down a black diamond slope--fun and fast-moving and invigorating." --Kristin Hannah, author of "Home Front "and "Fly Away"
""How I Came to Sparkle Again" is a delightful novel of life, lessons, and growth for a plethora of characters. Lisa wants to love someone; Jill is trying to pick up the pieces of a shattered life; and Cassie and Mike are struggling with grief. Jill quickly moves off of Lisa's sofa (which is the only space available while Lisa remodels her house) and into "the Kennel," a ramshackle trailer that's home to the Cat Crew, Hans, Eric, and Tom. They groom the slopes every night, smoothing out the snow and getting ready for the next day of skiing. Jill moves into an empty bedroom, takes a job as a nurse in the emergency clinic, and babysits Cassie in her off hours while Mike is working. "How I Came to Sparkle Again" is soul-satisfying treat for these long winter months!" --Romance Reviews Today
