But is it an enjoyable read? I sure thought so. So, long-story-short, this isn’t a perfect read. Just because something is cliche doesn’t mean it’s bad. He’s a true alpha hero who isn’t an alphahole, and I love him for it.Īnd, I have to say.the old “we have to get naked and cuddle to conserve body heat” thing.yes, it’s a cliche, but I still love it. He stays in potentially life-threatening situations to help her. He’s been railroaded for a crime he didn’t commit, but when he has the opportunity to turn on Kate and gain his freedom, he doesn’t. He might even qualify for my cinnamon roll hero list. A smart woman knows when she’s in over her head and isn’t afraid to ask for help. I can’t tell you how much I LOATHE heroines who stubbornly insist they can do everything themselves even when it’s clear they can’t. And she’s proud, but not too proud to admit that she can’t save herself from the situation she’s in.

She’s good at her job, but she’s not equipped the handle a wilderness trek through Alaska. Kate’s a competent, brave heroine who is simply out of her depth. But you know what? I didn’t care while I was reading. It never crosses totally over, in my opinion) Yes, some of the situations the couple finds themselves in are not very realistic.

Scorching romance, edge-of-your-seat tension and a hero. Yes, there’s an insta-attraction and connection between Kate and Mason that borders on insta-love. From the author of Alaska Wild comes a standalone romantic suspense that will leave you breathless. Yes, there’s improbable sexy times while bad guys are closing in on Kate and Mason.

So, there’s some stuff here that wouldn’t normally fly for me in a romantic suspense.
