The Winter King by C.L. Wilson

3.0

Very much a Historical Romance in a fantasy setting but absolutely none the worse for that. The core of the story is an arranged wedding between a stubborn misfit heroine with the power of storms and a cold masculine hero with the power of ice. Only she can melt his icy heart. This is a very well written book which has a well drawn fantasy setting and plenty of drama, political, maneuvering, war, danger, poignancy and, yes, lots of sex!

If anything my taste runs to more deferred gratification whereas this is very much a case of the two main viewpoint characters instantly craving each other, but despite that it's very effective. They come to trust each other and gradually fall in love while sharing trials, tribulations and plenty of passionate encounters.
