The Pretty Committee Strikes Back (2008)
“She wanted Claire to feel warm when she arrived for their private kissing lesson.Earlier that afternoon Mr. Myner had taught them how to build igloos by cutting blocks of snow and packing them to form circular walls.

She sneaked out of dinner early to decorate it with sheepskin rugs and beanbags from her cabin. And for ambience, she placed eight red cinnamon-scented candles evenl...y along the floor near the walls. It wasn't like anything in the ice palace could catch on fire.
