This was a great book! I read it so quickly as it was very entertaining. I look forward to reading more by this author. However I didn’t give this book a full 5 stars because I had a hard time believing the attraction/romance between Daisy and Riven. It seemed forced for the sake of the book.
The other thing was the ending really pissed me off because Riven had just asked her to be their girlfriend and then he’s not even going to hear her out? He is going to believe some dude over her? Plus he knew the whole time she wasn’t being entirely honest, so it should not have come as a surprise. Part of the plot was that she was hiding her ID. They literally said “she probably gave us a fake name and doesn’t want us to know who she is” so tell me why is he so angry when he finds out that’s true? You can’t really blame that on trauma. So all that added on to the fact that I didn’t feel their connection to begin with, it just all felt wrong. If she had been having that conversation with Cole or Eli, it would have been way more believable. Still would have been annoying though.
Overall it was a great book, but there were just some things I couldn’t ignore

This reverse harem was by far the easiest I've come across; thus I breezed through it in a day.
Daisy, the protagonist, finds herself snowbound in the mountains of Swedish Lapland with three men, and I was intrigued by the seamless flow of the story. If you're searching for a book with a 70% smut / 30% plot ratio, this might be it because the spice factor was surprisingly satisfying. The banter between characters was entertaining. As so often with RH books, I found the male characters more appealing than the female lead.
The plot, however, was somewhat lacking in substance. It somehow felt intrusive, with unresolved issues conveniently brushed aside whenever intimacy beckoned. It's unfortunate because the story had potential, but it didn't have enough depth in both the plot and characters.
So overall, while not groundbreaking, it was still an enjoyable read. 3.5 but not enough to round it up⭐️
