About the Author/作者介绍: Jennifer Coburn spends the winter holidays at home with her with her family in San Diego, where the only way she notices the seasons changing is by checking the calendar. Holidays in Southern California are a bit different than New York City, where Coburn was born and raised. Mall Santas are tan and Mrs. Claus is rumored to be a Botox devotee. Jennifer burns her menorah candles from both ends working as a public relations consultant and writer.
Jane Green worked for many years as a journalist, with occasional forays into public relations for film, television, and the odd celebrity. The author of nine other novels, including The Beach House, Second Chance, Swapping Lives, Jemima J, Bookends, To Have and to Hold, and The Other Woman, she lives outside New York City, and is still thrilled at the annual prospect of a real white Christmas.
Liz Ireland grew up in Texas, where all her Christmases except one were green. Her favorite gift ever was the yellow Schwinn bike (with a banana seat and white wicker basket) she got when she was nine. She now celebrates the holidays in Oregon with her husband and a menagerie of pets.
詹妮弗•科伯恩(Jennifer Coburn),每年圣诞节都和家人在圣地亚哥度过,她辨别季节更替的唯一方法就是看日历,在南加州的假期和纽约城相比是很不一样的,商场中的圣诞老人都是一张晒得黑黑的脸,而圣诞老奶奶则据传是一位肉毒杆菌狂热者。
简•格林(Jane Green),曾做过多年记者,偶尔会涉足电影,电视等的公众联系行业。作者的其他九部作品为:The Beach House, Second Chance, Swapping Lives, Jemima J, Bookends, To Have and to Hold, and The Other Woman,她现今居住在纽约城外,仍旧期待每年一度的白色圣诞节。
丽丝•爱尔兰(Liz Ireland),在德克萨斯州长大,在那里,每年的圣诞节都是绿色的。她最喜欢的圣诞礼物是一辆黄色的施温自行车,她现今与丈夫和一大群宠物在俄勒冈度假。
