Winter Term — Neil Plakcy

A small town second chance at love novella with a dash of Jane Austen and a floury dusting from a certain British baking show. Middlebury College literature professor Will is mourning his dead partner while teaching a winter term course on Jane Austen. A true romantic, he believes that books can hold the key to a forever romance. Scottish ski instructor Jeremy is fleeing a televised breakdown on a great British baking show and the implosion of his engagement. He's come to Middlebury to avoid the crush of fame. Can Austen (with a helping of baked goods) bring these two together?
