Book and Bag: author Barbara White Daille and #newbook Snowbound with Mr. Wrong #readromance #MFRWauthors


Welcome, Barbara!
Hopefully your browser will show this bag close to its true (rose-pink) color. I bought the bag to match a gown I wore to a formal party.

It’s actually smaller than it looks, so it doesn’t hold much. And I’ll confess, now the dress the bag went with is long gone, the color makes it tough to find clothes that go well with it. But isn’t it pretty? And don’t you think that’s worth the challenge? ;)





Worst. Day. Ever. After Lyssa Barnett’s sister tricks her into reprising her role at Snowflake Valley's annual children's party, she doesn’t think anything can be worse than squeezing into her too-small elf costume. Then tall, dark, and way too handsome Nick Tavlock shows up to play Santa…and an unexpected storm leaves them snowbound in the isolated lodge.

Nick turned to Tommy. “Compromise means you have to give and take.”

“I got it!” The little boy thumped his fist against the tabletop. “I give you chicken. And I take dessert.”

Lyssa and Mollie laughed. Brent tried to smother a chuckle.

Nick shook his head as if in irritation, but even he couldn’t hide the half-smile that touched his lips and brightened his eyes.

At the sight, Lyssa swallowed her grin and looked away. She didn’t want to see him happy and smiling. She didn’t want to see him at all.

When they’d dated, she had gotten used to Nick’s excitement about a new project he’d accepted, a takeover bid he’d engineered, a company merger that required delicate negotiations only he could handle. The trouble was, his exhilaration over all those things shut her out.

But, without fail, that smile of his would draw her in again.

I once had a mind green purse that I had a hard time matching a outfit with. I bought in on sale when I was visiting friends in Boston and it went with the dress I brought along to go to a wedding... I don't think I ever used it again and eventually gave it to my nieces to play dress up with.

That's the problem with some dressy bags, Kathleen - they're so pretty but sometimes impractical because they have to go with That One Thing.

Thanks for stopping by to comment!

Vicki - always a pleasure to visit with you!

As for the matching issue, maybe I just need to broaden my color spectrum. LOL

Christmas stories are my favorite, and this one looks sweet. Love that last line of your excerpt. I'm a sucker for a winning smile.

Barbara White Daille said...

Hi, Kathy - I love Christmas stories, too, and especially love to binge on them around the holidays.

I'm glad you enjoyed the excerpt! Thanks so much for stopping by.

Rohit - I like to include children in my books, and the scene about them learning to sew was a fun one to write!

Thank you for commenting.

Such a pretty bag. I'm glad you were able to find one to match the dress. :) I hope your holidays are bright!

Barbara White Daille said...

Hi, Melissa - I was glad to find it, too. My luck when it comes to putting outfits together isn't always the best. It's AMAZING how many shades there can be of a single color. LOL

And thank you - I hope your holidays are wonderful, as well!
