"Second Chance with Santa" by C.A. Varian invites readers into the enchanting world of Carol, a gifted artist and suburban housewife navigating the scenic landscapes of New England. At 48, Carol grapples with the stagnation of her 23-year marriage to Tom, prompting him to seek a new path in his own apartment. Amidst the emotional turbulence, a twist of fate occurs during a lunch with her confidante, Maggie. Within the charming confines of a local diner, Carol encounters Nick Clausen, a man in his early 50s whose striking resemblance to Santa Claus captivates her. Nick's charisma proves irresistible, sweeping Carol off her feet and ushering her into a realm of romantic escapades that reignite dormant emotions. Yet, the fervor of this newfound passion isn't without its challenges. Tom, discovering the affair, forces Carol to confront a profound dilemma. Torn between the comfort of a familiar yet lackluster marriage and the exhilaration found in Nick's embrace, Carol grapples with a decision that will reshape the contours of her life. "Second Chance with Santa" is a poignant exploration of love, choice, and the transformative power of unexpected encounters.
Autorenporträt
C. A. Varian was raised in Lockport, Louisiana, into an often-low-income household. She spent a lot of her childhood fishing, crabbing, and playing school. She loved pretending to be the teacher and assigning work to her cousins. Her love of reading started very young, where she used to complete several books per week in elementary school so she could earn a free personal pizza from Pizza Hut. Even once free pizzas were no longer an option, she still steadily read novels, usually above the reading level for her age group, and loved visiting the library to stock up on books. She started writing poetry and short stories while still in junior high through high school, although she stopped writing, at least for fun, once she had children and went to college. Thankfully, her writing hiatus ended, and she resumed her love for writing.She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in History, as well as a Master's degree in History. She also worked towards getting her teaching certification. She did almost all of her college education while also being the mother of two children. After graduating from college, she began teaching public school, a career that she continues to this day, currently teaching special education at a local middle school. She's married to a retired military officer, so she spent many years moving around for his career, but they now live in central Alabama, with her youngest daughter, Arianna. Her oldest daughter, Brianna, no longer lives at home and is engaged to be married. She has two Shih Tzus that she considers her children. Boy, Charlie, and girl, Luna, are their mommy's shadows. She also has three cats: Ramses, Simba, and Cookie, as well as five chickens and two ducks.
