Great contemporary Jack Frost reimagining with shifter/mortal romance and tropes like fated mates and forbidden romance.

This book was amazing! Magical and whimsical but at the same time dark and heartbreaking.

The FMC Jolie is a ballerina, struggling after an accident and lost. Her healing journey and how she overcame her grief were well written and I really liked her as a character. 

The MMC, Jax, was more of a mysterious character. I loved learning more and more about him throughout the story. Both the main characters were well developed and multi-dimensional, and the chemistry between them was great

Lark was an amazing friend and I loved how supportive she was. She truly was willing to do anything for her friends.

Loved the ending and would love to read more about Jax & Jolie in the future.


Thank you Sunny Babe PR for the ARC! Receiving ARC didn’t affect my opinion of the book.

“My love. My mate. My Tempest.”
“Someone get me a cup and a thick freaking straw. Jax Frost is my favorite treat.”
