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.
"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
