Fangs on Ice #2
Glory Troll
OLIVER
Falling in love—let alone at first sight—is much more my baby brother's style than mine. True, I adore romance novels, but that doesn't mean I want to trade my fantasy world or my sanity for the real thing.
When a bus load of hunky men arrive at Lone Fox Distillery, my resolve is tested by one green skinned beefcake. Bo August Persson wastes no time to flirt with me but he can't possibly be serious when he calls me 'pretty' and 'perfect', can he? I'm just...me, and mixing work and love has never worked before. Why should this time be different?
BO
I never took my grandmother's tales of true mates seriously, but when we step off the bus on the first day of our training camp in Scotland, and I meet Oliver Bright for the first time, I am prepared to believe every single word she said.
He pulls me in and I want to revolve around him as if I was a planet orbiting around the centre of my universe. Yet with our lives designed to keep us apart, our love story seems doomed from the start. That all this was just a pastime for him seems ridiculous when he flies to Bavaria for a week to be with me. The question will we find a way to make this work, or did we get a taste of true love only for life to tear us apart again?

With names like Ollie and Bo, how could this book not be horribly cute. They are so gone for each other from the start its sickeningly cute and I'm here for it. The best part... Bo let's Ollie buy as many books as he wants and then scolds him, telling him that next time he takes him book shopping "not to hold back" *swooon* like yes sir!

Such a spicy story with a couple of beef cakes. Ollie was all uptight and I loved his constant blushing. Bo was a giant cinnamon roll and brought all the instalove energy to the table. Ollie wasn’t far behind, of course. There wasn’t a lot of plot beyond them falling in love and coming to terms with living in different countries, but it hits the spot for low angst coziness.

This is a short and spicy read with all the blushing! Bo has always believed the tales of fated mates and when he meets Ollie, he just knows they are meant to be. Ollie knows he shouldn't be fraternizing with guests but he just can't stay away from Bo. The scene with the two of them in the forest with the fireflies all around them...🔥

“If you think I’m beautiful, I’ll have to create a new word for how absolutely gorgeous you are.”
These dudes are both so freaking obsessed with each other it’s insane. And horny, so freaking horny.
Kind of forbidden, with Ollie wishing to keep things professional whilst Bo is a guest but it goes out the window so quick. Fair play to Ollie he did try but he couldn’t resist his forest troll.
I did love how obsessed these two are with each other, to the point of Ollie moving to be with Bo. They are sickeningly sweet.
I liked the little peaks we got into side characters life’s for future books as well as Nate and Vee after their book.
Sweet, smutty, swoony quick read.
🌟🌟🌟🌟.5
“It was surely illegal in at least fifty countries in the planet to be this stunning.”

This was just the cutest spiciest troll book ever!
Bo was the sweetest but the mouth on him had my kindle heating up I swear.
Ollie was the cutest too! He fell hard and fast for Bo but tried to fight it a little but soon succumbed to Bo's charm.
This series so far has been absolutely amazing and now I can't wait to see what exciting things to come!

Ollie and Bo are so cute together 😍
This story is a great, low angst palate cleanser. The story is a steamy fast burn that revolves around our boys flirting and figuring their (long distance) relationship out.
As always, my favourite parts are the Lone Fox Distillery cameos. It has to be my favourite fictional location.

This is such an incredibly sweet story, I love Ollie and Bo so much!! I'm a sucker for a fated mate bond with Insta-lust/love and Rhea Fox delivered in this cozy novella!
I lived for the little stolen moments the two of them were able to have while Bo was staying at the Lone Fox Distillery. Bo was so charming and cute; he buys Ollie books and flowers, and gets him mushrooms so he can have the best time while frolicking in the woods. 😏
I loved all the texting and banter, the sexual tension (and release 😆).
If you're a monster lover with an affinity for big green hunky dudes who are a simp for their partner while being freaks in the sheets, then this story is for you!

I loved this book even more than the first one! And all the cameos made my heart so happy! My favorite Rhea Fox book is Zero Fox Given so I loved seeing the distillery and some of my fav characters again. This book had so many things I loved, mate bonds, a big hunky monster man, connections with nature and lore, beautiful scenery, size difference, “good boy”, spoiling him with books and making him use his credit card, amazing spicy scenes along with super sweet ones, sports romance and more!
The spice was absolute amazing and I loved that the characters were verse, the give and take between them was amazing. All the spicy texting and video calls was super steamy too. Overall, I loved it so much, Oliie and Bo’s relationship was equal parts adorable and spicy, and it had so many things I loved! I definitely recommend it!

This was a ridiculously sweet MM, fated mates story with some next level smut. Spice was a solid 4/5 in my opinion. This books takes place in a fantasy world where monsters and humans coexist. The love interests are Ollie (human) and Bo (troll) and their love for one another is so intense and deep that it’s almost palpable. There really isn’t much of a plot other than the two of them exploring their new relationship and a lot of exploring each other in very detailed spicy scenes. Like 50% of the book is them hooking up, and I was here for it. Their physical chemistry aside, they are also very sweet together.
This was a fun and steamy read and I enjoyed it so much that I read it in one sitting! I would recommend this one if you’re into fantasy, MM stories, fated mates, and hockey romances to boot! It’s low drama with a guaranteed HEA (which takes on multiple meanings in the book!)

Bo always believed that his grandmother"s tales of true mates were exactly that. But when he and his hockey team get off the bus for their training camp in Scotland, he's about to be proven wrong.
Oliver loves romance novels. But love at first sight is not something he ever thought to be a possibility. But when the green hunk of a forest troll sets foot into the hotel he works in, things are about to change. And fast.
These two are just the cutest!! This novella is full of all the fantastic fluff and spice, Bo and Ollie fall hard and fast for each other and just have to work through some stuff to finally be together for good. They had me swooning and grinning the whole time reading. If you're looking for a cozy monster romance with all the feels, jump into the "Fangs on Ice"-Series!!

Glory Troll features Ollie, a human who works at the Lone Fox Distillery (which was introduced in Zero Fox Given) and Bo, a Troll hockey player on the same team as Decks from Puck & Plume. The two meet when the hockey team is staying at the and the attraction is immediate. This novella contains a little bit of hockey, a lot of flirting, and even a sprinkle of some magic mushrooms *wink wink*. Plus, a whole lot of spice. There’s lots of lube, plenty of positions and locations, and even a little hand necklace play. Overall, it is easy to see how strongly these two men feel about each other. They are definitely fated and are really good about supporting and caring for each other, in between all the pleasure-y bits.

°·._.·♡ ARC Review ♡·._.·°
Thank you so much to the author for sending me an ARC for an honest review.
The story follows Ollie and Bo who meet when Bo’s hockey team stay at the hotel Ollie works at. Sparks, and clothes, fly when Bo realises Ollie is his mate. And Ollie realises he wouldn’t mind trip trapping over Bo’s bridge to find out what he’s packing underneath.
I was not prepared for how spicy this was going to be…MA’AM! I had the fire brigade on speed dial because I thought they’d need to come put me out 🥵 Ollie and Bo were super sweet but this was steamy as hell!
Overall, these boys have my whole heart.

Un porno su carta, praticamente.
Carino, per carità, le scene spicy sono abbondanti (forse anche troppe) e scritte bene, ma oltre a questo... niente. I personaggi sono piatti, piattissimi e non ci è possibile conoscerli oltre alla loro libido. Gli avvenimenti nel libro sono inesistenti. Questi si incontrano, amore a prima vista, e poi scopano come se non ci fosse un domani. Non c'è tensione, non c'è pathos, non viene data la possibilità al lettore di tifare per la coppia perché, suvvia, si amavano già alla terza riga di pagina uno.
Godibile, ma niente di che. Do giusto la sufficienza perché è il primo libro che leggo di questo genere e non mi ha fatto schifo.

I love a good troll romance and Glory Troll certainly fits the bill! This is such a sweet romance story, between Bo and Ollie when Bo’s hockey team go to train in Scotland and end up staying in Ollie’s hotel. Anyone who has ever had a holiday fling that turned into something more will relate hard to this!
Filled with longing, extreme flirtation, trollish lore and plenty of spice, this book had me turning pages so fast!
I love how we saw characters from Rhea Fox’s different series and as always, she sets it up perfectly so you leave the book wondering about how this certain character she just offhandedly mentions will get their love story. Needless to say, I MUST read the rest of the books right now! The Rheaverse is life!
So if you want a MM romance that involves a human and a lovable troll, fated mates, some forest fun times with mushrooms, adorable low stakes read, then pick up Glory Troll today!

Holy Hello
Cute. Just adorable, instalove cuteness. Bo saw Ollie and just felt that deep connection to him. And I loved that the fact Bo was a troll never mattered at all. The romance was sweet. The spice was spicy. These men could not keep their hands off eachother. I love the size difference. The culture difference. And the overall acceptance of love here. This one is a favorite.

Oliver and Bo are the cutest! As a Swedish person I loved Bo and his use of Swedish when his feelings are big. I really like that the book is fast paced but full of sweetness, cute interactions and characters that feel real. So lovely!
Really recommend it if you want to feel cozy and warm.
I got an ARC copy in exchange for my honest opinion.

10/10 for spicy, sweetness and story.

This was such a sweet, adorable romance that I definitely enjoyed. I would have to say Bo and Ollie were the cutest couple. Where Vee and Nate made a steamy couple, Bo and Ollie were just adorable together. The cover was just sweet and adorable, I loved this book and the dialogue between the two of them was so sweet and endearing.

This book and series were a late night start that kept me awake at night and killed all of my productivity but in the best ways!!
This book was short and sweet. The sweet romance that makes you giggle and kick your feet just a little. The characters were endearing and very low angst.

This cute novella was a quick read that made me smile with how adorable they were. Ollie and Bo both fell fast and hard (insta live). Ollie is Bo’s mate and after a whirlwind romance they have to part ways (life and work). They reconvene (if you will) for a short time and then forever. The story is cute and spicy.

Quick MM romance. Insta-Love, fated mates. Ollie was cute but Bo was so sweet. Couple that with Bo giving that Power Top loving and you’ve got yourself a steamy story. I love a good MM scene that is heavy on the details and Rhea Fox did not disappoint.
