Winter Waites by Lucy Lennox

Series: Aster Valley #0.5 Read time: <1 Day Rating: 5/5 stars

Quotes: So imagine my surprise when I met someone who changed everything. someone who could suddenly control me like a puppet with a thousand strings. And every single one of them was tied to him and me irrevocably. Forever. — Gentry Kane

Just an adorable short Winter romance. There are NYE elements, the idea of a new you but it's barely there. This could easily be read at any time. Winter is sweet and smart, his generosity is done well because it only goes so far. There is fan side of his character that fits and is done to a suitable level. It's not to the level of crazed but it honours GUS and Gent's import to his life and development. We can all think of that band/singer/group that at least partially formed us into who you are (mine, Linkin Park Chester Bennington's death was a lot to me), that is the level of fan we are talking about. Not stalker, respectful awe. Gent is unexpectedly for me. I didn't expect him to be as fun as he was. He's just human. It does as much fiction involving fan and singer does require some suspicion of belief of fact for the premise to actually work. (Stage lights are all but blinding you would never get that level of detail through them). There is an extremely limited support cast works for such a short piece they are there to play a role and do so. It is worth noting that the writing style has both Winter and Gent speaking to the reader to a degree. We are not intruders into their lives we are invited into their world like close friends trusted with their relationship. It's a very deliberate and beautiful way to write it.

The epilogue is set quite some time after the bulk of the book unsure how long. At least 36 months. Does introduce quite a few more players for the series including Right as Raine the first full-length title and Sweet as Honey, the second. I get the feeling young Solomon might become relevant at some point too. He's 15 at the time of the epilogue but given the time and mm series I can see his time coming or him becoming someone's best friend. Or even getting his own book with HFN and first love.

I have other farmers, so this is Aster, thinking about his crush. He is an actual kind and nice dude, but he always gets what he wants (Shane).

Late afternoon at the balsam fir swamp in Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge.

From top: nodding bur-marigold (Bidens cernua), also sometimes referred to as nodding beggarticks, a clumping, wetlands-loving annual whose flowerheads nod as they mature and get heavier; bushy St. John's wort (Hypericum densiflorum), a gorgeous, densely-packed shrub with vibrant yellow flowers and copper-colored bark; white meadowsweet (Spiraea alba), a rapidly-colonizing shrub whose branching clusters of white flowers are one of summer's most generous gifts; narrow-leaved gentian (Gentiana linearis), a tall, elegant bottle gentian that can only be pollinated by bumblebees strong enough to pry open (or chew through) its closed petals; flat-topped white aster (Doellingeria umbellata), also known as parasol whitetop, a tall, attractive mountain aster with flat, branching clusters of white flowers; and the dainty white flowers of virgin's bower (Clematis virginiana), a vigorous, twining vine that forms beautiful, dense waves of foliage and flowers.

Color Rose surprised when later that night she got a baby bump. She's not completely ignorant to human sim pregnancies and how they work, she married a human after all (well former human I guess) who likes to talk about anything and everything. It's just that plantsims don't typically have children like this and doesn't 100% know what to expect. Not to worry though, Jason's there to help.

In other news Daisy's making new friends. Her parents were a bit worried for her considering she'd be the only plantsim in school but luckily one Pauline Aspir found the new green girl in her class very interesting.

Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge, Part 2. Had Allegheny Power gotten its way 40 years ago, the land included as part of this idyllic refuge would today be the muddy bottom of a lake formed by damming the Blackwater River. The power company proposed turning the largest and most botanically-diverse high-elevation wetlands complex east of the Rocky Mountains into a “recreation destination” (e.g., overpriced tourist trap similar to nearby Deep Creek, Maryland) so it could execute a sketchy pump and release hydroelectric scheme. Thankfully, the US Army Corps of Engineers refused to issue a permit, and the nation has been since been rewarded with its 500th national wildlife refuge.

From top: the open grasslands of the refuge, which are actively managed similar to prairies in the Midwest to increase wildlife diversity, black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), one of the primary benefactors of the open grasslands; flat-topped white aster (Doellingeria umbellata), also known as parasol white-top, a tall, grand late summer aster of the Appalachia’s higher elevations; a thistle seed pod, which draws hordes of goldfinches; field milkwort (Polygala sanguinea), also known as purple milkwort, a field-loving beauty that deserves more attention from native wildflower gardeners; the spindly seed pods of virgin’s bower (Clematis virginiana), another harbinger of autumn’s impending approach; and a tranquil stretch of the Blackwater River, just before it exits the valley in a violent spasm and descends in pure chaos through the boulder-strewn Blackwater Canyon.
