Norwegian title: Vinterdrømmer

Anne-Lise Boge

Finally, a new series by the bestselling author Anne-Lise Boge!

Frost covers the ground and it is nearly Christmas time in the little town of Landvik. The year is 1928 and the young people are taking advantage of the ice-covered fjord to go skating.

Maren is the daughter of the merchant Thorvald Bredli, who owns and runs the only store in town. Bredli is a wealthy man, with a lot of influence in the community. And in Landvik, the division between the haves and the have-nots is unmistakable. Maren has just turned 17. She is an only child and the apple of her father’s eye. Since Maren is the only one who can carry on his legacy, he expects her to find a husband of equal social standing. One day the indigent boy Trond Lia is given a job in the storehouse.

Trond—the boy with the silky curls and deep-blue eyes… Maren falls head-over-heels, and an innocent crush deepens into love. The young woman is unaware of the dramatic consequences this relationship will have in regard to her life and the lives of others.

4 books, 4 bookw will be published in 2010.
