ETCHED IN FROST

Etched in FrostEtched in Frost by L.R. Friedman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Prepare to be swept away by L.R. Friedman's "Etched in Frost," a spellbinding reimagining of the Jack Frost legend that masterfully intertwines the ethereal beauty of "Swan Lake" with a contemporary romance.

Imagine a world where the harbingers of winter walk among us, bound by ancient creeds, yet irresistibly drawn to mortal souls.

Jolie's life has been dedicated to ballet, her passion and purpose. However, a devastating accident shatters her world, claiming her mother's life and derailing her career at the Institute. As she strives to rebuild, she's haunted by memories of piercing icy eyes that inexplicably saved her. Enter Jax, a Frost tasked with ushering in winter, who defies the cardinal rule of his kind: never interfere with humans. Upon discovering Jolie is his fated mate, Jax faces an agonizing choice between duty and desire. Their journey is a tapestry of mutual longing, slow-burning romance, and the transformative power of love. Set against the backdrop of ballet's grace and the raw intensity of hockey, Friedman's narrative delves deep into themes of trauma, healing, and the courage to embrace a second chance at life. The chemistry between Jolie and Jax is palpable, their story a testament to the resilience of the human (and not-so-human) spirit.

Fans of paranormal romance will be enthralled by the atmospheric writing and the heart-wrenching, star-crossed love affair. The book's exploration of resilience, destiny, and forbidden love makes it a must-read for those who crave a tale that is both enchanting and emotionally charged.
