Rocking in Vermont
This Christmas, Portia Jackson needs a miracle to save her family's generations-old florist shop. What she gets instead is a car that breaks down during a blizzard. Help arrives unexpectedly when the infamous Aubry Riley pulls over. She only expects him to drive her to the gas station . . . she never expects that kiss. But Portia lives in the real world--she knows this is only a holiday fling for Aubry. Except it doesn't feel so temporary, and the last thing she wants is a broken heart.
Rock star Aubry Riley has no secrets. Thanks to the media, everyone knows about his troubled past. Six years have gone by since his world crashed, and now he's ready for a comeback. But first he needs to reconcile with his family--starting with his six-year-old daughter. A month-long vacation at a Vermont lake house affords him the perfect opportunity to take a step in the right direction. He doesn't need any other emotional entanglements, especially not with the bright-eyed florist he can't stop thinking about. But no matter how hard he tries to resist her, he can't. Now all he has to do is to convince Portia that there is nothing temporary when it comes to love.
Julie Anne Long said it much better than I can. "Elyssa Patrick's AS YOU WISH has everything I enjoy in a book: depth, wit, heart, and serious steam. Not to mention the irresistible combination of edgy rock star glamour and small-town closeness, and characters who are sympathetic, flawed, lovable and memorable--in short, it's a winner." I fully concur with Julie Anne's opinion!

I like uncommon settings for romances. They’re all unusual to me – an Australian!
That book cover is very, very nice. It sells the book – I don’t even need to look at the blurb to want it!
Thank you so much, Miranda! You're so awesome! And thank you for the very awesome quote you gave me. <3
And, Sonya, thank you for the lovely compliment on the cover. I wish I could take credit! I was lucky to come across the stock image and my friend, Mary Danielson, worked magic and made the awesome cover.
Clearly I had an addiction to the word awesome. ;)
This book sounds lovely, and I do enjoy stories about family businesses because both my husband and I grew up around our own family owned businesses. Best of luck Elyssa, and thank you for the contest, Miranda!
Love books about musicians! This sounds great and I wish you zillions of sales, Elyssa. Thanks for introducing us all to this book, Miranda.
