A curse that forbids her to love…A child that he must keep secret…An attack on the culture she holds dear…And a battle that could get them killed…
Single dad and professional poker player, Chance Landon, hates the world after his ex-wife is found dead in a cheap apartment in rural Idaho. On a lone-wolf crusade to find the killer, he instead learns that he is the father of a strange little girl who carries secrets that only a woman like his ex-wife can answer.
When his ex-wife’s killer learns about his daughter’s abilities and decides to come after the young girl, Chance enlists the help of the beautiful and deadly swan-shifting nymph, Harper Cygnini, who helps to teach him the truth of his daughter’s condition. Chance soon realizes that he alone can’t save his daughter from the sadistic killer and he finds himself in a battle between his head and his heart. Will Chance gamble on a future that involves falling in love—which may well cost him his life—or is that one bet his is unwilling to take?
Playlist for WINTER SWANS by Danica Winters
I loved the process of writing Winter Swans (the latest book in the Nymph Series). While I was writing, I often found that I needed a source of inspiration for certain scenes.
This was the list of songs I created when I needed to set a scene! I hope you enjoy this candid look into my writer’s brain!
Luck be a lady

My Opinion:
After reading The Nymph’s Labyrinth(book 1) and Montana Mustangs (book 2) I wasn't expecting Winter Swans (book 3) to be as good as it was. In my opinion the first two books just barely make it as 4 star books because I was expecting so much more. I really loved Winter Swans though and would give this book 5 stars. All three books have a story about a different shape shifting nymph. I loved the characters in Winter Swans the best. Winter Swans begins with the funeral of Harpers sister who dies in the second book. Even though all stories have different characters with their own story they all pretty much connect. I'm really hoping there will be another book about Chance's daughter really soon. These book are all good but I would only recommend them to adults because there is a lot of sex.
Danica Winters is a bestselling author who is known for writing award-winning books that grip readers with their ability to drive emotion through suspense and often a touch of magic.
When she’s not working, she can be found in the wilds of Montana testing her patience while she tries to understand the allure of various crafts (quilting, pottery, and painting are not her thing).
She always believes the cup is neither half full nor half empty, but it better be filled with wine.
Thank you so much for posting and participating in the tour. You rock! xx

I've not read any books yet. This one intrigues me. I grew up outside Boston, MA and going into town for the swan boat rides was always a special treat. Because of that swans have always held a special place in my heart.
