Why read it?
1 author picked The North Wind as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
For fans of slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers fantasy, this book is gold.
With Beauty and the Beast and Hades and Persephone vibes, this book tells the story of a human woman who is kidnapped and wed to the Frost King, a brooding immortal.
The writing is beautiful, and I appreciated how it took a long time for the heroine and hero to trust each other and break down their walls. Both characters are deeply flawed, yet you still root for their happiness.
The world-building is lovely and folkloric. Getting into the steamy parts takes a while, but it’s worth the wait!
From Avalon's list on romance for empowering escapism.
