“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good fright…”\nWhat if Santa Claus was really a young, mad trickster and you had the one thing he wanted? What if the only person who agrees to protect you has a dark past of letting those he’s meant to protect die? What if one day you’re walking in the city and suddenly you can see another world tucked into the cracks of your own?\nHelen Bell has been unwanted her whole life. So, when a young, handsome Winter guardian appears to aid her in a crisis, she’s sure he’s got his priorities backwards. But after magical happenings begin to infiltrate Helen’s life in Waterloo, Canada, and a train horn seems to be calling her from across the city, she finds herself in the middle of someone else’s war.\nWith an underlying Christian message of hope, The Winter Souls Series blends fantasy-action and Christmas tradition, bringing the old forgotten tales of the season to life with new versions of famous characters from old holiday legends, such as St. Nicholas, The Snow Queen, and The Nutcracker.\nA Soul as Cold as Frost is Jennifer Kropf's debut novel, ideal for fans of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis, Harry Potter by J. K. Rowling, and The Nutcracker and the Four Realms by Meredith Rusu and Ashleigh Powell.\n"Wow, I loved this book! I've not read anything quite like it before, and the author pulls it off wonderfully. This book was a magical twist between Narnia, Alice in Wonderland, and Spirited Away, yet somehow read as effortlessly original. The descriptions are vivid and really make you feel like you're freezing, trudging through snow, or drinking the best hot chocolate of your life. It was gripping, fast paced and full of action, yet not lacking in heart. Highly recommended for young YA readers upwards." - USA Today Bestselling author Alice Ivinya\n"A Soul as Cold as Frost instantly transports you into a magical world that the whole family will adore. Fans of Chronicles of Narnia will be thrilled with this new wintery adventure!" - Nikki Mitchell, author of Nightshade Forest\n"Wow! I can't believe this is Jennifer Kropf's debut novel. The writing is absolutely stunning and the characters are so easy to fall in love with. A Soul as Cold as Frost wasn't my usual genre, but I could not put this book down. I loved letting myself get lost in the wonderful world this author created. I can't wait for the book's release so I can order my copy! 5 out of 5 stars, without a doubt." - Heather Garvin, author of Take What You Can
