About the Book

A surprise Christmas holiday in the French Alps should be a dream come true, but not for sixteen-year-old Nirvana. She has important plans to complete at home, and tensions are high with her parents. In desperation, Niv skips ski school and heads off-piste towards the forest, where she discovers a hidden igloo. Better still, it's empty. When its builder, Jean-Louis, finds her trespassing, he suggests they share the igloo, and as the pair find common ground in their struggles to be themselves, they realise they are each other's perfect Christmas gift. Too soon, Niv must return home to Lancashire. Now in two different countries, each faces new problems, alone, and their battle to be together becomes infinitely harder. Is it a battle they can win? Or will their sweet, fledgling romance be lost to the seasons, like the igloo where it began?

Review :
Praise for Igloo I had my fingers crossed for Nirvana's happiness from the first chapter until the last. A swiftly paced adventure and a true romance to melt your heart in winter. Had to stop myself booking an alpine lodge holiday immediately after reading.- Shirley McMillan, author of A Good Hiding, Every Sparrow Falling and The Unknowns. Treat yourself to this sparkling Christmas love story and escape to the snow-clad pine forests of the Alps. Jen Burkinshaw gives us witty, warm and charming Niv and Jean-Lou to root for - perfect for romance fans of all ages.- Anna Mainwaring, author of Tulip Taylor and Rebel with a Cupcake. Igloo is a heart-warming story of first love set against the stunning backdrop of the French Alps. I was rooting for Niv and her journey from the start! Nirvana is such an inspiration to girls - particularly given the current market - for standing up for what she believes in. A girl who is passionate about joinery and can make an igloo from scratch? And make her own love story happen at the same time? Go Niv!- Eve Chancellor, poet and author of short stories on East of the Web. Needs to be in everyone's Christmas stockingFull of humour, delightfully fresh phrases, and surprises, Igloo is a perfect YA Christmas read. We are in Nirvana's mindset immediately and we're rooting for her to become what she is destined to be. The dialogue is funny, sparky and exciting between the two main characters, and their differences in interests and character are a perfect balance. I really loved the atmosphere of this book, from its language and locations to its heart. I'll be reading more by Jennifer Burkinshaw.- Ruth Estevez, author of Meeting Coty, The Monster Belt, Erosion, Jiddy Vardy and Jiddy Vardy High Tide. Igloo is a superb novel. I was totally involved in Nirvana's story and had to read it to the end. Now I'm quite sorry I've finished. The main characters are totally believable and intriguingly complex; the supporting cast all beautifully realised, from little Claude to the horrendous Ghislaine. The debate over Niv's future is extremely well reasoned on both sides. The descriptive writing is amazing too. I wanted to visit that igloo myself!- Bob Stone, author of Letting the Stars Go, The Custodian of Stories and the Beat trilogy. A cosy, curl-up Christmas read with a hot chocolate and all the toppings!What a lovely story! Such a gentle romance with enough edge so that it's not saccharine and cliché but also with not too much edge that it makes it hard to read or has triggers! This is something that is often hard to find in YA fiction. The teenage voice was great - enough naivety balanced with a little stroppiness and hot-headedness. Nirvana has a passion for carpentry and now for Jean-Lou. Most of all, I wanted to know if they make it!Determined to follow her dreams, Nirvana quietly grows in strength in this well-paced, evocatively set coming-of-age novel that genuinely made me smile.- Carole Estelle, The Reading Jackdaw, book blogger
