“I found it difficult to put this book down. “

Winter Longing, Razorbill, August 2010
Tricia Mills offers a powerful story of first loves, loss, coming of age and friendship with Winter Longing – which I can only say was spectacular! If Winter Longing is any indication of the talent that Tricia Mills has to offer the world, all I can say is that she better be ready for an amazing ride to the top of the pile!
“Winter Longing is one of the best books this year, and has made its way in my heart as a new favorite.”
“If you love a good romance story with love, life and meaning, read this book.”
“Exceptionally touching and heartbreaking, Winter Longing will surely strike a chord within you.”

Heartbreak River, Razorbill, April 2009
“Mills builds suspense in both the romance and the moving drama of family secrets and loss. The fast talk and Alex’s first-person narrative are right on, especially in the scenes of quarrels. Best of all is the setting, which is powerfully described in scenes of Alex struggling to overcome her phobia and return to the wild rushing river she loves.”
– Hazel Rochman, Booklist
“Filled with exciting rafting expeditions, parties, fights, flirtations, betrayals, jealousies…”
– Catherine Ensley, School Library Journal
“Tricia Mills has crafted a complex and vivid story of love, grief, and the slow process of healing set in the beautiful, wild and dangerous country of rural Colorado. Mills’ characters are authentic, varied, and fallible in their own unique ways, but each of them contributes a realistic and personable undercurrent to the novel. … Mills balances the moments of grief and the moments of happiness, efficiently reminding readers of the heartaches and joys of life, and the importance of never giving up on living, making for a stellar, quick, and emotional first novel.”
“Heartbreak River swept me away. Tricia has an alluring style that sucks you into the story.”
“This was almost exactly the kind of story I hope for when I find out a book has a romantic element. I loved it!”
“This is a really romantic novel…with the story centering around Alex and Sean’s rekindling romance. Plus, there’s lots of other great characters who work with Alex, and they all react differently to each other…and make for great reading.”
– Lisa May, Look at That Book blog
“Heartbreak River gives us a different spin on some difficult issues — the death of a parent, the war in Iraq, and the importance of friendship.”
– Em’s Bookshelf blog
