Íris is a refugee from an abusive youth in Iceland, further abused on the streets of Toronto - until she sees Art as an escape. With a scholarship, she drifts from depression to nightmare to Wiccan rituals to the next exhibit. There's a lot she must forget to succeed in a life she refuses to take responsibility for. Eric is settling in at Fairmont College, starting a new life after betrayal and heartbreak. Divorced and hitting forty, he has a lot to prove - to his father, his colleagues, and mostly to himself. The last thing he needs is a distraction - and there's nothing more distracting than Iris. A BEAUTIFUL CHILL is a contemporary romance set in the duplicitous world of academic rules and artistic license.

Stephen Swartz grew up in Kansas City where he was an avid reader of science-fiction and quickly began emulating his favorite authors. Since then, Swartz studied music in college and, like many writers, worked at a wide range of jobs before heading to Japan for several years of teaching English. After Japan, Swartz earned a Master of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing, requiring him to study not only the Classics and the English literary canon, but Old Norse literature. A Beautiful Chill was originally his MFA thesis, and was based on the faculty, peers, and campus he encountered during his studies; he maintains it is a work of fiction. Swartz is now a Professor of English and teaches writing at a university in Oklahoma. He can always be found writing his newest novel, usually late at night.
