Butterfly in Frost

De: Sylvia Day

Narrado por: Emma Wilder, Joe Arden

A Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Washington Post, and Amazon Charts best seller

From number one New York Times best-selling phenomenon Sylvia Day comes a hotly anticipated and passionate new love story.

Once, I would never have imagined myself here. But I’m settled now. In a place I love, in a home I renovated, spending time with new friends I adore, and working a job that fulfills me. I am reconciling the past and laying the groundwork for the future.

Then Garrett Frost moves in next door.

He’s obstinate and too bold, a raging force of nature that disrupts the careful order of my life. I recognize the ghosts that haunt him, the torment driving him. Garrett would be risky in any form, but wounded, he’s far more dangerous. I fear I’m too fragile for the storm raging inside him, too delicate to withstand the pain that buffets him. But he’s too determined…and too tempting.

And sometimes hope soars above even the iciest desolation.

Emotional and heartrending, Butterfly in Frost marks a brilliant return by global sensation Sylvia Day, the number-one international multimillion best-selling author of the Crossfire saga.

Wow! Just wow!

I did not see that ending coming at all! Now I have to go back and listen/read it all over again to catch all the little clues dropped along the way. I love when an author can catch me off guard. I love romance and heat, but it has to have a story line too. This one had it all!

This is a Goodie

This is a quick read that you wont forget. I cried real tears at the end. Love this book.

Rushed

I didn't fall in love with any of the characters. There were too many secrets held with their past that I didn't grow attached to them. The whole book I'm thinking what is wrong with them. Then finally with the twisted plot at the end you sorta but definitely not fully understand what you just read. It felt rushed.. all of it.

Beautiful Story!!!

This story is such a beautiful, sad, truthful work of art. Without revealing any of the details you will want to experience for yourself, the author does such an incredible job of exploring the depths of the deepest depression and sadness in loss. This book gives hope to those working thru it themselves that there will eventually be some light back in their lives, by encouraging them to work through the pain, and allow it to come in when they are ready.

Ummm... Scratching my Head!

2.75 Stars for me!

My rating range of this story... 1 - 3 Stars

Um, Wow, Beyond Descriptive Sex - 8 or above

Was there so much sex or unrealistic sex that you rolled your eyes and/or skipped forward? Not really

The back story... Very convoluted. The MCs meet when the h is walking her dog with a friend and the H is jogging. The first meeting has the H being an ass and the h being tongue tied.

The Romance... The H chasing the h pepe-lepew style.

The drama explosion... Major revelations
Did it feel Real, OK or contrived? Unreal
Was it OTT? Yes
Separation involved? Ni
Was it resolved properly or rushed? Unsure

Final Notes... This ending comes out of left field. There are a few bread crumbs throughout the story but there wasn't a catalyst to put it in focus. It appears that Sylvia's intent was to shock the reader but a bit of foreshadowing would have made it feel much more realistic.
