Frost: A fae romance (Frost and Nectar Book 1)

Product Information

Overall this was an excellent first book and I’m looking forward to the conclusion. This is my first experience with this author though I do have other titles of hers on my TBR which I’ll now definitely be moving up my list. I received this from the Kate Avery Ellison to read and review. The story is set in the winter in a small community that lives in the Frost as the area is called. Lia is the main character, she's had to take over raising her little sister and caring for her crippled brother after her parents are murdered. Most of the community lives in a safe little town while a few live outside the town those are farmers. It's a unique world, where during the daylight the people in the town are free to move about but during the night these creatures called "Watcher" come out and kill anyone who they find they are drawn to people with electronics. That's why it's a simple farmingish community, each family has a quota of goods they are required to provide for the better of the town. When a stranger shows up hurt who happens to be the community's enemy Lia saves his life and changed her life forever.

All in all, a great read that I highly recommend if you like young adult fantasy. I am eagerly waiting for Thorns. THIS WAS A very entertaining cross between The Bachelor and a fantasy fae romance. It was like a new adult version of The Selection but with sexy fae, not quite as cheesy, and a much more badass heroine 😍😍 Lia is breaking all the rules and possibly putting her family’s lives at risk to care for this young man. But there is something about him that pulls her in and soon feelings start to grow. Lia thinks she is crazy for falling for a Farther of all people. But this is just the beginning of the story...more and more secrets unravel and now Lia must help him escape her people and his own to get to safety. Lia will sacrifice everything she has ever known for him, but in the end is it worth it or will it cost her her life and the lives of those she loves?

When it comes to descriptions of the settings, i think that the author made an amazing job. The descriptions are as vivid as one could possibly wish. Five stars in this. Maybe i'm seeing this all wrong, and Gabe was to have a completely different role in this story. Maybe he just served to wake Lia emotions... Jarrell, Randall. "To The Laodiceans."

Being trapped inside a wall for all eternity? The darkness that envelops you, and not glimpses of light? It must be like vein buried alive." Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874–January 29, 1963) was an American poet. His work was initially published in England before it was published in the United States. Known for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech, [2] Frost frequently wrote about settings from rural life in New England in the early 20th century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical themes.In sharp contrast, the founding publisher and editor of Poetry, Harriet Monroe, emphasized the folksy New England persona and characters in Frost's work, writing that "perhaps no other poet in our history has put the best of the Yankee spirit into a book so completely." [46] She notes his frequent use of rural settings and farm life, and she likes that in these poems, Frost is most interested in "showing the human reaction to nature's processes." She also notes that while Frost's narrative, character-based poems are often satirical, Frost always has a "sympathetic humor" towards his subjects. [46] Influenced by

This is how this story begins, and for me, this first paragraph was perfect in grabing my attention and interest. It is an entertaining and engaging work that draws readers in as it sets up the events of the third work of the series. If you love romantasy books, this one is for you. If you love fae related books, this one is for you. If you love a heroine who knows she is not perfect and owns her flaws, this book is for you. If you love a hero that says things that will make your knees go weak, this is ALSO FOR YOU! To make a world all nestled in the cold of ice, snow and frost and still maintain the vivid imagery to get the story flowing is extremely difficult but this author did it perfectly. I want to read the sequel and I want to read more about the complexity of a great cast of characters: Lia, Gabe, Ivy, Ann, Adam and Jonn. The Farthers were perfect villains and I loved to hate them but I would definitely like to see what their world is all about too.Isla Frost’s novel “Shadow Trials” immediately portrays a snapshot of Nova, the lead, her family, and the world that she lives in. The author masterfully captures everything and she instantly pulls in the readers who will get attached to the lead and her family.
