Its been a lifetime (and three seasons) in the making, but Jane Gloriana Villanueva is finally ready to make her much-anticipated literary debut!

Jane the Virgin, the Golden Globe, AFI, and Peabody Awardwinning The CW dramedy, has followed Janes telenovela-esque lifefrom her accidental artificial insemination and virgin birth to the infant kidnapping and murderous games of the villainous Sin Rostro to an enthralling who-will-she-choose love triangle. With these tumultuous events as inspiration, Janes breathtaking first novel adapts her story for a truly epic romance that captures the hope and the heartbreak that have made the television drama so beloved.

Snow Falling is a sweeping historical romance set in 1902 Miamia time of railroad tycoons, hotel booms, and exciting expansion for the Magic City. Working at the lavish Regal Sol hotel and newly engaged to Pinkerton Detective Martin Cadden, Josephine Galena Valencia has big dreams for her future. Then, a figure from her past reemerges to change her life forever: the hotels dapper owner, railroad tycoon Rake Solvino.

The captivating robber baron sets her heart aflame once more, leading to a champagne-fueled night together. But when their indiscretion results in an unexpected complication, Josephine struggles to decide whether her heart truly belongs with heroic Martin or dashing Rake.

Meanwhile, in an effort to capture an elusive crime lord terrorizing the city, Detective Cadden scours the back alleys of the Magic City, tracking the nefarious villain to the Regal Sol and discovering a surprising connection to the Solvino family.

However, just when it looks like Josephines true hearts desire is clear, danger strikes. Will her dreams for the future dissolve like so much falling snow or might Josephine finally get the happy ever after shes been dreaming of for so long

REMEZCLA
"Snow Falling [is] the sweetest tribute. When Jane the Virgin goes on break next week , we know what well be doing. Snow Falling is now at the top of our winter reading list!

HelloGiggles
"Much of the story line should sound familiar to die-hard fans ... and we expect nothing less than the same over-the-top hilarity. Seems like the perfect treat to get us through a cold and dreary winter!"

Fun. Read it if youre a fan of historical romances. Snow Falling is set in 1902 Miami, which makes for some fun window dressing .The love triangle is solid, the sex scenes are suitably sexy, and the takedown of the notorious crime lord is satisfying. Michael died very suddenly in Season 3, and for those of us who refuse to move on, Snow Falling is therapeutic reading. The two finally get the future together that they deserve. Youve spent years watching Jane grow as a writer. Why on earth wouldnt you want to read the finished product!

The over-the-top-ness of the series translates well to a romance novel plus, the sex scenes are just a little more explicit than whats shown on TV.

Bust
The book gives sweet and passionate descriptions of Villanuevas encounters with her love interests. This book serves as an unconventional refresher for fans who await the next episode following [the] mid-season finale. It also serves as a more dramatic and passionate telling of Villanuevas story unlike the show, she isnt modest in her imagery of her romantic encounters and dramatic scenes.

The Daily Texan
If youre a Jane fan, too, youll want to read Snow Falling. Its a definite read for fans! I loved having the chance to re-experience what made me fall in love with Jane to begin with. Shes quirky and fun, and it stands to reason that the heroine in Snow Falling, Josephine, is quirky and fun, too, but in a way that identifies and works well with the early 1900s.
