On Thin Ice

Arctic Titans of Northwood U, Book 6

De: Hayden Hall

Narrado por: Curtis Michael Holland

I've been in love with Jordan Mitchell since the moment I saw him.

He's smart, handsome, and even funny when he feels like it. He excels at everything; whatever he touches turns to gold. He can't do anything wrong.

When our parents got married and merged our broken families, I suddenly had a rival I could never compete with. And a heart-throb I could never be with. And I hate him for it. He doesn't even see me.

Until one summer break . . . We're alone in our parents' mountain house. All we do is swim, sunbathe, and fight. And I'd rather be kissing him. Soon enough, the line between hate and attraction is too blurry to see.

It turns out that he's just as messed up as me. And his sculpted body attracts me more than ever. With each day we spend holed up in the mountains, it gets harder to resist him. If I don't do something, I might burst.

But the looming threat of destroying our family for a cheap thrill holds me back. There couldn't be a happy ending to our story. And all my choices are wrong. For once, I'm going to need him to be in charge of what happens next.

Contains mature themes.

Lack of depth and development

I would have liked to see more development in the characters. Too many things were glossed over. The fact that Asher allowed his mom to basically say Jordan was grooming him was outrageous and did not speak to the love he had for him. He came off as weak. The parent's divorce seemed contrived and the mom went from annoying to practically villainous. The story was ok but there was a lot of room for more depth and development. The narrator was good but the differentiation in voices was challenging.
