For the
past two years, Lucy Pierre has loved her handsome boss,
Jack Forsythe. Jack’s a ruthless Wall Street mogul who’s
left a trail of broken hearts in his wake. Only a fool
would fall for him. Lucy can’t resist her emotions or his
phone call for her to come over. Her poor Jacky-poo is
sick. Packing up the holiday cheer she heads over to his
penthouse to nurse him back to health by adding some
Yuletide spirit with the chicken soup.
Jack
Forsythe a.k.a. Jack Frost has caught a cold. The mortal
flu affliction is messing with his powers and the disastrous
result is a terrible blizzard. He can’t return home either!
So when he calls Lucy, his loyal devoted assistant to nurse
him back to health, Jack is faced with a dilemma. His
attraction to Lucy is threatening to tear down the barriers
he’s built around his heart. Leave it to Lucy Pierre to
melt a winter god’s heart.
What can I
say? I’m a die hard fan of Jack Frost stories. With LK
Hamilton’s Frost character in her Merry Gentry series at the
forefront, there seems to be a lot of authors out there
willing to feed my addiction to these stories. In
Melting a Frozen Heart, Dahlia Rose has created a
playful and poignant scenario featuring two unlikely lovers
set in New York. She adds a few familiar faces from
Scandinavian mythology to the mix with a different spin.
Jack and Lucy are on fire in the bedroom while the blizzard
rages outside. Their life’s transition dances from scene to
scene like a snowflake. Lucy is spunky and adorable, while
Jack is ruthless sexy to the max. The conversations are
witty, humorous and steamy. I certainly appreciated Ms.
Rose’s imagery and contemporary writing style. What I have
now is another good story to while away the winter, and
that’s enough to melt away the mid-January blues. |
