A sizzling escape for the hot days of summer
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Fiction gives us so much. Not only does it allow us to experience and learning about other places and perspectives, but it can act as an escape from our daily lives. There are numerous studies as to the benefit, but I figure I don’t need to preach to the choir, so let’s just cut to the chase.
I just have to tell you about this book.
Romance? ✅
Adventure? ✅
New location? ✅
The fate of the world as we know it? ✅
May I present to you *drum roll*
Gosh, isn't it pretty? This book is set in Antarctica and has the bones of a bestselling thriller and everything I was looking for in romantic suspense. Honestly, I can't recommend it enough.
It's hard for me to talk about what I loved so much without spoiling it, so here's the back cover.
Brace yourself for this fast-paced romantic suspense full of fan-favorite tropes:
Forced proximity (forget only one bed—there's only one sleeping bag!)
Survival romance
Locked box suspense
Grumpy/Sunshine goodness
And scorching, brain-melting heat despite the freezing Antarctic setting
With a storm coming and a killer on the loose, every step could be their last...
Angel Smith is finally ready to leave Antarctica for a second chance at life. But on what was meant to be her last day, the remote research station she's been calling home is attacked. Hunted and scared, she and irritatingly gorgeous glaciologist Ford Cooper barely make it out with their lives...only to realize that in a place this remote, there's nowhere left to run.
Isolated with no power, no way to contact the outside world, and a madman on their heels, Angel and Ford must trust their instincts and fight to survive in the most inhospitable—and beautiful—place on earth. But what starts as a partnership born of necessity quickly turns into an urgent connection that burns bright and hot. They both know there's little chance of making it out alive, and yet they are determined to weather the coming storm—no matter the cost.
I hope you add this to your TBR pile this summer! We all could use a good, social distanced escape right about now.
