A lifelong fan of romance novels and telenovelas, Jane Gloriana
Villanueva has worked as a publisher's assistant at Silver Horizons
and dating columnist for Cosmopolitan online. She is now
thrilled to be publishing her first novel. Snow Falling is a
sweeping historical romance based on Jane's now-notorious true
story of being accidentally artificially inseminated as a Catholic
virgin, becoming the target of the nefarious crime lord Sin Rostro,
and ultimately marrying her true love who died tragically young.
Jane's life, loves, trials, and tribulations can be followed on The
CW's hit television show Jane the Virgin.
"BRILLIANT. MOVING. MASTERFUL. I laughed, I sobbed, I even danced.
The best novel of the century."
-Rogelio De La Vega
"Jane Gloriana Villanueva takes readers on a spectacular ride in
her debut novel. It is a page-turner that pulls at your
heartstrings and reminds you what it feels like to fall in
love."
-Angelique Harper, bestselling author of Frontier Lust
"Romance, adventure, intrigue! Jane's novel is so much fun I wish
I'd written it myself!"
-Caridad Pineiro, New York Times bestselling
author
"Jane Villanueva's words jump off the page and make it impossible
to put the book down."
-Amanda Elaine, author of Love Under the Bridge (Winner
of the 2007 Romance Book of the Year) and The Christmas Cookie:
Sprinkled with Love
"From the moment I met her, I knew Jane would be a success. Her
captivating, melodic, emotional writing can make even the most
cynical person believe in romance."
-Marlene Donaldson, author of ReVulva: Locked and Loaded
"Prepare to be swept off your feet by this beautiful story about
love, heartbreak, betrayal, and the power of passion. Villanueva's
debut is a true standout."
-Deirdre Shaw, author of Love or Something Like It
"Equal parts harlequin (button shirts and corsets will be ripped
open in fits of passion!) and telenovela (watch out for mistaken
identities and family reunions!), Snow Falling is endlessly
enjoyable. It's the kind of book you won't be able to put
down."

"Snow Falling [is] the sweetest tribute. When Jane the Virgin goes
on break next week , we know what we'll 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!"
-Latina.com
"Fun. Read it ... if you're 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.
You've spent years watching Jane grow as a writer. Why on earth
wouldn't you want to read the finished product?!"
-Slate.com
"Just the thing for a cold winter's night between episodes."
-The Washington Post Book World
"Did you want to reach through your television and grab Jane's
novel, Snow Falling, just so you could read it? Well, have we got
some great news for you...It transports Jane, Michael, and Rafael's
story to Miami in the early 1900s, but follows the same dramatic
beats that we know and love from the show. Of course, there are
some deviations ... but Snow Falling promises to be faithful down
to the last letter ... .This alternate universe might be the just
the balm you need to overcome your own grief."
-Hypable
"Fans of the show will undoubtedly enjoy the chance to read Jane's
book in real life."
-Entertainment Weekly
"If you love hit TV show Jane the Virgin ... you don't just love
watching love stories but reading about them, too. While you can
certainly love each of those separately, you no longer have to.
Now, combining the magic of television and the magical realism of
literature, the romance novel Jane Gloriana Villanueva writes and
publishes on the hit TV show has come to life in our real world.
That's right, Snow Falling is here - and it's just as lovey-dovey
as you'd expect."
-Aplus.com
"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
what's shown on TV."
-Bust
The book gives sweet and passionate descriptions of Villanueva's
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 Villanueva's story - unlike the
show, she isn't modest in her imagery of her romantic encounters
and dramatic scenes."
-The Daily Texan
"If you're a Jane fan, too, you'll want to read Snow Falling. It's
a definite read for fans! I loved having the chance to
re-experience what made me fall in love with Jane to begin with.
She's 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 1900's."
-Chick Lit Central
