Tuesday Ebook Spotlight: Comeaux's 'Gold Rush'

Jennifer Comeaux is a tax accountant by day, writer by night. There aren't any ice rinks near her home in south Louisiana, but she's a diehard figure skating fan and loves to write stories of romance set in the world of competitive skating. One of her favorite pastimes is traveling to competitions, where she can experience all the glitz and drama that inspire her writing. When she's not writing, traveling, or calculating taxes, you can find her feeding her television addiction.

Her latest book is “Gold Rush,” in which ice skater Liza Petrov is working toward her ultimate  prize - Olympic gold. She's stayed sheltered inside her bubble, not daring to stray from her destined path, until she meets Braden Patrick.

Braden makes her heart flutter with possibility, and for the first time she gets a taste of a normal teenage life. She longs to have both the boy and the gold, but stepping outside her bubble comes with a price. As Liza begins to question both her future and her past, can she stay focused on the present and realize her ultimate dream?

According to Comeaux, this book is perfect for fans of coming of age romance and authors such as Kasie West, Stephanie Perkins, and Miranda Kenneally.

“Gold Rush” was recently nominated for InD'tale Magazine's RONE Award in the Young Adult: General category.
