"Winter Bloom" picks up about a month after the end of the previous installment, "Fall Hard," in which main character Chloe had shared an "accidental" drunken kiss with her roommate/crush Austin. Chloe and Austin have avoided talking about the kiss (and much of anything else) ever since, but with their mutual friend Charlotte's wedding quickly approaching, Chloe decides that it's time for them to clear the air. When she approaches Austin, she's shocked to learn that he has decided to move out of their shared apartment to live with his girlfriend, Lucy. Will this finally be the end of Chloe's crush?
Just as the previous installments in this series have been, this story was laugh-out-loud funny. I particularly loved Chloe's efforts to calm Charlotte down before the wedding as well as her failed attempts to use voice-to-text. There was also plenty of steam between Chloe and her date-of-the-moment, Logan, who actually seemed pretty great. It will be interesting to see what happens next in their relationship given the unexpected (but not unwelcome) way in which this episode ended.
Overall, I very much enjoyed "Winter Bloom" and highly recommend it for fans of chick lit and romantic comedy. I can't wait to find out what happens in episode #5.

About "Winter Bloom"
They say winter is coming… and thanks to Logan, I am too.
If the past year has taught me anything, it’s that I am an idiot. Between The Incident, the upcoming nuptials, and finding a new place to live, I’m about ready to find a cave to hibernate in. Nearly murdering the lead singer of my favorite local band really should have been on everyone’s bingo card.
Their drummer going from medic to love interest was a plot twist I didn’t expect.
Logan has all the things I’ve been looking for--the newness of spring, heat of summer, comfort of fall, and the distraction I’d like. It may not be the traditional third date, but I’m bringing him to my best friend’s wedding anyway.
Charlotte’s not the only one who can lock a good time down.
Episode four of six in the hilarious, steamy Dating Season.
